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.
Features
Manual or automated height adjustment for a wide range of bag lengths.
Automatic bag top leveling (HS 800 & HS 1200).
Bag mouth cleaning and dust extraction prior to sealing.
Heat sealing and Scoring of the inner liner.
Automatic closing of step-top bags.
Quick-release systems for heating and scoring parts.
Extensible PLC control for additional line components.
Design Objectives
To be integrated in fully automated bag packing lines or, alternatively to work as a stand-alone unit using an operator interface.
Avoid bag trimming.
Handle a wide range of bag sizes and types.
Provide a robust and reliable inner liner seal and high quality closing function
Compliance with hygiene standards.
Provide integrated and extensible control for other equipment in a bag handling plant.
Ease of operation and maintenance.
Use automation to reduce labor requirements
