CTS-168L MAP Sealing Machine
CTS-168L MAP Sealing Machine

A complete Modified Atmosphere Packaging system based on the CTS-168L tray sealer

The CTS-168L MAP adds a Modified Atmosphere Packaging system to the CTS-168L sealing machine, making it one of the most affordable ways to extend the shelf-life of your products. All the features of the CTS-168L remain intact, but in addition during the sealing process an airtight chamber is formed, all the ambient air is removed from the chamber and the package and replaced with the desired gas mixture, and the package is sealed in that environment. This allows for the package to be sealed with a residual oxygen level as low as 0.1%. Without oxygen bacteria and mold cannot grow, allowing for a dramatic increase in shelf-life in many cases. Like the CTS-168L, the CTS-168L MAP can accommodate most standard tray sizes over a wide range of depths, and can seal trays with multiple compartments with ease – even sealing the dividers between compartments. For smaller containers like sandwich wedges, “dual head” tooling can be designed so that with each machine cycle two containers are sealed, effectively doubling your output. The CTS-168L MAP also boasts the Teinnovations Quick-Swap tooling system, so you can switch containers in about 3-4 minutes. The CTS-168L MAP is perfect for small to medium production runs of foods, soups, salads, sandwiches, desserts, pastries, and any other items that need extended shelf life.

MACHINE STANDARD FEATURES

ADVANCED DESIGN

The reliable microcomputer-based design allows for maximum flexibility while still remaining user-friendly. Parts that need to be cleaned or replaced are designed for easy access and removal with butterfly nuts or spring clamps. Many removable parts make for quick repair and maintenance.

SEQUENCE OF STATIONS

Loading station
This is a semi-automatic machine. The operator inserts the filled container into the lower molding where a sensor recognizes it and begins the cycle. The lower part of the tool moves into the sealing position. Once the cycle is completed the lower assembly slides out and lifts the container for access to the finished product.

Film Control system
A motorized system unwinds the sealing film under the cutting/sealing plate. The film guide rods have side O-rings to prevent film drift during operation. Extra guides ensure a very high seal success rate. An optical sensor provides self-calibration of film advancement with every seal. After cutting, the excess film is automatically wound to be discarded or recycled later.

Sealing/cutting station
The film is heat-sealed onto the trays and die-cut around the tray perimeter. Timing and temperature are fully controllable through the digital control panel.

SAFETY FEATURES

There are no gears or chains in the machine which could pinch fingers or clothing. A patented front safety panel avoids accidental hand insertion or improper container placement. This machine is also equipped with side safety panels to prevent against finger insertions.

WARRANTY

Assuming that the machine is used according to instruction, the guarantee period is twelve (12) months or 150,000 cycles at one shift per day operation on mechanical parts excluding expendable (wear and tear) normal maintenance. It is recommended that proper power source protection be used, such as an Uninterruptible Power Supply. Neglecting to do so may result in conditions that are not covered under warranty.
