Horizontal flow wrapper for vacuum packaging
In food production, maintaining product freshness and extending shelf life are critical challenges. Another issue is contamination during the sealing process, affecting the overall packaging quality and safety.
Ensures hermetic sealing and contamination-free packaging
The ULMA FLOW-VAC® is a horizontal flow wrapper developed for vacuum packaging of food products using a single shrink and barrier film. The system forms vacuum bags around the product and creates a full hermetic seal along the length (longitudinal seal) and ends (transverse seal) of the bag, ensuring contamination-free packaging. Operating synchronously with the incoming product, the machine adapts to any production line speed variations. Designed with user-friendly features like PC-controlled product setup parameters, a touch screen, and easy film roll changeover, the FLOW-VAC® also includes a film scrap removal system to handle excess material efficiently. The packaging equipment, manufactured by ULMA Packaging, utilizes CRYOVAC® barrier film supplied by SEALED AIR, making it suitable for many food industry sectors.
