Continuous heat sealer for fold-top bags

For operations involving low volume production plants, the need to semi-automate the sealing of pre-glued fold-top bags can improve productivity and reduce labor requirements.

Seal and close fold-top bags efficiently

The SC-500 from GEA is a continuous sealer closer designed for efficient semi-automated sealing and closing of pre-glued fold-top bags in low-volume production plants. Its continuous motion closing system allows the bags to be presented to the closer while the operator can simultaneously perform other tasks like filling, enhancing overall throughput. The SC-500’s compact design utilizes a belt conveyor system for transporting bags through each module, which is adjustable to accommodate various bag sizes. The operator control panel offers straightforward setup, operation, and monitoring, minimizing downtime. The belt conveyor ensures consistent transfer and handling, while the bag top is controlled by a series of coordinated belts. This design enables the SC-500 to integrate seamlessly into multiple production processes with increased speed and reduced labor.
