Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What tray sizes and depths can be formed?
A1: Tray dimensions are available based on your specific requirements.
Q2: How long does the vacuum sealing extend shelf life?
A2: Vacuum sealing typically extends refrigerated shelf life to 14-21 days compared to 3-5 days for standard packaging. MAP (Modified Atmosphere Packaging) can extend this further.
Q3: Can the machine create multiple tray cavities?
A3: Yes, we offer single, double, and quad-cavity configurations. Multi-cavity trays are ideal for portion control and family-sized packages.
Q4: What film materials work best for thermoforming?
A4: We recommend multi-layer barrier films with EVOH or PVDC layers. Film thickness ranges from 200-500 microns for bottom web and 50-100 microns for lid film.
Q5: How does the heating system ensure uniform tray formation?
A5: Ceramic heating elements provide precise temperature control (±2°C). Multiple heating zones allow optimization for different film materials and tray designs.
Q6: Can it handle different meatball textures without damage?
A6: The gentle drop system and cushioned landing minimize product damage. Adjustable drop height accommodates delicate and firm products equally well.
Q7: What’s the vacuum level and sealing strength?
A7: Vacuum levels reach 99.5% with residual oxygen below 1%. Sealing strength exceeds 15N/15mm for secure package integrity during distribution.
Q8: How much film waste is generated?
A8: Skeletal waste (trim around trays) is typically 15-25% depending on tray size and spacing. Waste can be recycled through film reclaim systems.
Q9: How long does it take to change tray formats?
A9: Tray format changes require 20-30 minutes including tool changeover and system optimization. Recipe storage allows quick parameter recall.
Q10: Can it integrate with case packing systems?
A10: Yes, the discharge conveyor matches standard case packing equipment. Optional tray orientation and spacing systems optimize downstream automation.
