INTRO
Companies in the food beverage industry know
how critical packaging is for keeping food fresh
and preventing deterioration. Packaging also
plays a crucial role in attracting customers and
making the food easily transportable. Tray
sealing is a newish trend that looks like it's
here to stay. Nichrome is happy to introduce you
to this new technology for food packaging
3
WHAT ARE TRAY SEALERS?
Automated packaging machines that apply plastic
film lids to trays of varying materials,
sizes, shapes and depths. Also known as heat
sealers, top sealers or tray lidding machines.
The versatility of this technology makes it the
optimal solution for packaging fresh produce,
meats, frozen meals, ready-made meals, snacks and
more. In India, their application is growing in
the snacks and sweetmeats section with a
large number of mithai and savoury items being
packaged in thermoformed trays.

HOW DO TRAY SEALERS WORK?
Tray Sealers come in two basic formats
semi-automatic and automatic. The process
begins with the product-filled trays entering the
in-feed conveyor where they get indexed and
spaced. They are then picked up by a transfer
beam to be transferred within the tooling. The
seal plate picks up the product-filled trays and
lifts them against the film. The film and
trays are then compressed against the heated
upper tooling to activate the sealing
properties against the tray, while simultaneously
cutting the film. Finally, after the necessary
seal dwell time has elapsed, the seal station
lowers the trays back down and ejects them to
the out-feed of the machine.
