Heat Sealers

Print     Send link

GEA Avapac continuous heat sealers are designed to close a wide range of bags used in dairy and food ingredient plants. The bag is leveled as it enters the sealer which eliminates the need for cutting and resulting wastage. Auto-leveling (available on HS 1200 and HS 800) allows fully automated bag handling process from bag filling through to palletizing. The internal liner is sealed by application of heat, and is then scored without damage to the outer paper to form a free floating internal pouch within the bag. This pouch can be easily removed and passed into a hygienic environment avoiding exposure of the product to contaminants or unfiltered air. The outer paper bag is then folded and closed by re-activation of the pre-glued strip. Options for alternative bag closure methods are available.
