Packaging with large trays at high output

Date: 15.12.2021Source: Multivac

MULTIVAC is adding three new traysealer models to its TX8 series with a new format width and thereby offering customers even more packaging flexibility. The TX 815, TX 825 and TX 835 traysealers are particularly suited to packing products in large trays in a two-track packaging process, and they are characterised primarily by their very high output. As with all models of the TX generation, it is possible to use Pack Pilot and other MULTIVAC Smart Services.

The new machines enable trays with a maximum width of 270 mm to be run in a two-track format, or alternatively with a width of up to 560 mm in a one-track format. This means that they are specially designed for packing a wide range of food products or ready meals in family packs and catering trays. Thanks to the wide format of the machines, it is now also possible to achieve a high output of large trays with ‘wide side leading’.

It is particularly with skin packs, that the new high-output traysealers show their merits: since the cycle output with skin applications is generally lower than other pack types, this two-track machine version with its tandem gripper enables very high outputs to be achieved. The tandem gripper guides the trays gently and rapidly through the packaging process, ensuring that the product is transported very securely.

As with all traysealers of the TX generation, the new machine models are equipped for the future. The innovative machine control with Multi Sensor Control and Flow Manager makes a major contribution to the machines’ very high output, consistent reliability and optimum pack quality with an even product flow.

All the models are prepared in advance for MULTIVAC’s digital solutions. A wide range of MULTIVAC Smart Services is already available to customers, and these create real added value in every respect. By linking the packaging machine digitally, it is possible to access information about the current production status from any location. It is also possible to monitor and optimise the packaging process, as well as detect bottlenecks and faults, and even create new recipes simply and reliably.

In order to simplify the process when setting up new products, trays and films, the TX models can for example be connected online with MULTIVAC Pack Pilot, which automatically sets the machine parameters. This makes it possible to achieve a very quick production start – even with new pack or product applications.  For more visit multivac.com
