SMART 300 tray sealer

Compact and versatile! Semi-automatic tray sealer for all types of pre-formed trays. Capable of producing MAP and skin packaging. Its simple operation and quick format changes make this compact tray sealer ideal for small-scale use, product development or testing.

Short production runs do not usually require fully automatic tray sealers, but they do require high-quality packaging. The SMART 300 semi-automatic tray sealer is compact, flexible and suitable for various tray types and materials. Its simple operation and quick format changes make this compact tray sealer ideal for small-scale use, product development or testing.

The SMART tray sealers are suitable for the following applications:

• Atmospheric packaging (seal only)
• MAP packaging (modified atmosphere packaging)
• Vacuum skin packaging (trayskin) 

The following products are ideal for tray sealing: charcuterie, fresh meat, meat products, fish and fish products, fruit and vegetables, pasta, ready meals, fruit salad, dried fruit, delicatessen salads, soup, sauces, dairy products, pastries, chocolate products, medical and non-food products.

The process begins by placing the trays containing the product into the machine’s compartments.

The cycle is fully automatic and is started by pressing two buttons simultaneously. The process consists of the following steps:

• Inserting and closing the tray compartment
• Vacuum if required (optional)
• Gas injection if required (optional)
• Sealing the film onto the tray
• Cutting the film
• Trays return to the start position
• Film advances for the next cycle

Whilst the trays are returning to the start position, they are lifted to facilitate the removal and reloading of the trays.

If multiple tray sizes are being processed, the sizes can be changed quickly without the use of tools. Tray height adjustments can be made in 1 minute and a full tool change can be completed in less than 5 minutes.

The SMART complies with CE standards and the ISO 9001 quality standard.

• Safety guards are fitted to prevent access to the cutting and sealing areas during the cycle
• The guards are fitted with safety switches
• The dual-button start is a safety feature: one button per hand until the tool is in place and the packaging cycle begins
• The control circuit operates at 24 volts
