Innovative packs for food, medical products and industrial items

R 081

T 260

C 300 TC Chamber Machine

At FachPack 2015 MULTIVAC (Hall 3A, Stand 135) will be presenting innovative solutions for the packaging, labelling, marking and inspection of food, life science and healthcare products as well as industrial items. Thanks to its large portfolio of products, the packaging machine manufacturer can
offer tailored solutions for many different requirements to customers from a wide range of sectors.

With its R 105 MF thermoforming packaging machine, MULTIVAC will be presenting an entry-level model for producing MultiFreshTM vacuum skin packs. MULTIVAC's product range also includes an exten-sive array of skin films for MultiFreshTM applications, for which MULTIVAC has tested and approved materials made by leading film manufacturers.

MULTIVAC will be using its R 245 thermoforming packaging machine to show a variety of different approaches to increasing the efficiency of energy, materials and processes. The use of innovative die technology for example allows the consumption of packaging materials to be re-duced considerably. The packaging machine is equipped with a MR293TT direct web printer and two MR625 OP cross web labellers for marking and labelling the packs. The I 211 checkweigher is used for a weight check of the packs. The packs are converged by an integrated MBS 100 belt system, with the subsequent stacking of the packs being carried out by the MPS 302 pack stacker.

MULTIVAC will be presenting two fully automatic packaging solutions from its traysealer portfolio, which are used for packing medium-sized and large batches. The compact T 300 is equipped with a die, which can run trays with a height of 125 millimetres. MULTIVAC will be showing the machine at FachPack in a three-track version with an integrated line converger. It is equipped with a direct web printer with an integrated TTO 10 thermal transfer printer.

The T 800 high-output traysealer that will be shown has an additional automatic tray denester with a tracking unit. The trays are labelled by a L 310 conveyor belt labeller; the packaging line has an I 310 metal de-tector for quality inspection.

As regards its chamber machines, MULTIVAC will be presenting the C 200 chamber machine and the C 450 double chamber machine. Thanks to its modular construction, the B 210 chamber belt machine can be adapted to the individual requirements of the particular custom-er: it is available with two chamber sizes and two different chamber lid heights, and it has a height-adjustable transport conveyor. There is also a flexible arrangement of the sealing bars, and the user can select be-tween different sealing systems.

Packaging solutions for the Life Science and Healthcare industries

Two new models from MULTIVAC's MCP business unit (Medical, Cos-metics and Pharmaceuticals) will be seen at FachPack. The R 081 thermoforming packaging machine is designed for packing products in small batches, and it is suitable for cleanroom applications. This entry-level model can produce vacuum packs and modified atmosphere packs with reduced residual oxygen content.

The T 260 traysealer enables medical products to be packed in accordance with GMP guidelines, particularly with regard to packaging quality, process reliability and cleanroom compatibility. The sealing die ensures that there is controlled sealing pressure with high sealing forces and precise temperature distribution, and this gives a consistently high level of packaging quality.

MULTIVAC will also be presenting the C 300 TC chamber machine for packing medical products in pouches. Its permanently heated sealing bar offers a high degree of process reliability and reproducibility. Thanks to the IPC control of this chamber machine, which can be validated and calibrated, all the processes can be monitored and controlled.
