- Typical capacity
- For this class of equipment, throughput can typically range from 6 to 15 cycles per minute, depending on tray size and sealing requirements.
- Power supply
- Units of this type commonly require a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, with a power consumption that varies based on heating elements and vacuum pump usage.
- Air supply
- Compressed air is typically required for pneumatic functions, commonly at 6-8 bar.
- Tray materials
- This equipment is generally compatible with a wide range of tray materials, including CPET, APET, PP, and aluminium, provided they are suitable for heat sealing.
- Film materials
- Suitable for various lidding films, including barrier films for MAP applications, and standard heat-sealable films.
- Footprint
- A Multivac TS355 Galaxy typically requires a floor space of approximately 2,000mm x 1,000mm, plus space for access and maintenance.
- Sealing type
- Commonly performs heat sealing, vacuum sealing, and Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) functions.
