Turbo systems Heat sealer pot sealer

• Sealing individual portions of food products in small containers.
• Packaging ready meals, desserts, or sauces in retail-ready pots.
• Securing lids onto dairy products such as yoghurts or cream.
• Creating tamper-evident seals for pharmaceutical or cosmetic samples.

Typical throughput

For this class of equipment, throughput can vary significantly, but units commonly achieve several hundred to a few thousand seals per hour, depending on pot size and cycle time.

Power supply

Units of this type typically require a 3-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with a rated power consumption suitable for heating elements and motor drives.

Pot material compatibility

These machines are generally designed to seal a range of plastic or foil pots, often with compatible lidding film materials such as PET, PP, or aluminium foil.

Temperature control

Adjustable temperature controls are standard, allowing for precise heat application tailored to different lidding film and pot materials.

Frame material

Equipment for food processing, such as this unit, commonly features a stainless steel frame for hygiene and durability.

Control system

Modern pot sealers often incorporate a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) for automated operation and process control, with an HMI (Human Machine Interface) for operator interaction.

Footprint

The footprint for multi-pot sealing machines varies, but buyers should consider space for operation, maintenance, and material loading/unloading.

• What types of pots can this machine seal?

  This type of heat sealer is typically designed for pre-formed plastic or foil pots. The current setup is for 30mm diameter x 25mm depth mini pots, but tooling can often be changed for different pot sizes and shapes.

• Is it possible to change the number of pots sealed per cycle?

• What maintenance is typically required for a heat sealer?

• Can this machine be integrated into an automated production line?

• What safety features are commonly found on these machines?

Used sealing machines are generally valued for their durability and long operational life. Buyers typically prioritize machines with clear maintenance histories and minimal wear on sealing components. Key considerations include film compatibility, seal quality consistency, and ease of adjustment. Reputable models tend to retain functionality well across multiple applications. Industry sentiment suggests these machines offer strong value when sourced from reliable vendors, though operators should verify calibration settings and test seal integrity before full production use.
