Application-Driven Induction Sealing
For many packagers, such as contract packagers, switching applications can be a weekly, daily, or even hourly occurrence. Because of this, packagers require absolute flexibility and modularity within their operations. The iFoiler Induction Sealer is designed with this in mind, featuring the capability to store 50 different applications that can accessed through the easy-to-use touch screen interface. This drastically reduces changeover time for sealing applications, improving efficiency and productivity. These applications are stored in the memory of the iFoiler, and can be called up independently with selected parameters. For example, when packaging two different products with different opening sizes and chemistries, parameters such as sealing power and conveyor speed can be individually adjusted for each product, then saved to memory. Once these parameters have been saved, changeover on the sealer can be done in seconds. Changing applications can be locked by production supervisors or managers using a passcode to the risk of operator error by ensuring that only certified personnel can access and change applications.
