- Typical sealing method
- For this class of equipment, it commonly employs a continuous band sealing mechanism, suitable for thermoplastic materials.
- Power supply
- Units of this type typically operate on a standard single-phase industrial supply, such as 230V, 50Hz in the UK.
- Throughput
- Throughput for continuous band sealers is typically measured by conveyor speed, commonly ranging from 5 to 12 metres per minute, depending on the model and bag size.
- Bag material compatibility
- These machines are generally suitable for sealing a wide range of heat-sealable materials, including polyethylene, polypropylene, laminates, and foil bags.
- Maximum seal width
- The seal width is typically fixed for a given model, commonly around 8-12mm, providing a strong, consistent seal.
- Footprint
- A Saxon bag sealer, particularly a continuous band model, typically requires a floor-standing footprint of approximately 1.0 to 1.5 metres in length and 0.5 to 0.8 metres in width.
