Cryovac® Automated Loading Systems Create More Continuous and Consistent Product Flow

DUNCAN, S.C. (Oct. 24, 2007) – Sealed Air’s Cryovac® brand equipment systems represent the latest in automation technology and help create more continuous product flow, eliminating production bottlenecks. The Cryovac® BL126 vertical bag loader and Cryovac® 8800E rotary chamber vacuum system are designed to package fresh red meats, smoked and processed meats, and poultry products. These systems can easily and efficiently adapt to existing production operations. Because product handling is reduced, simpler and safer tasks are created for employees and training time also is reduced.

The Cryovac® 8800E rotary chamber vacuum packaging machine is a fully automatic, all-in-one bag loading, vacuumizing and sealing machine, which reduces product handling. The 8800E operates at speeds up to 15 cycles per minute and contains a PLC control with a diagnostic system to increase uptime, in addition to an automatic central lubrication system that prevents premature wear.

The Cryovac® BL126 is a fully automated vertical bag loader that advances and opens Cryovac® taped bags to accept gravity-fed products from an in-feed conveyor located above the machine. The system can handle bag widths from 10 inches to 14 inches dispensed from rolls or boxes. The BL126 operates at speeds up to 20 cycles per minute, and can easily and efficiently adapt to existing production operations or be used independently.
