Cryovac® VS98 Vacuum Chamber Machine

The Sealed Air Cryovac® VS9X vacuum packaging machine is the answer to medium output production requirements for shrink bag packaging systems. It is specifically designed for consumer and medium size packs of fresh meat, processed meat (PM), cheese, and a range of other solid fresh food items. It incorporates many new features made possible by the latest advances in vacuum packaging technology. • Improved production performance by increased sealing bar length, allowing for more packs per cycle, cycle speed improvement, and high vacuum efficiency thanks to a speed-controlled vacuum booster pump • Automatic loading from upstream equipment • Labour cost reduction and line integration thanks to the ‘integrated buffer infeed conveyor’ version • Full 400 mm chamber opening actuation allows for free access around the machine • Operational costs reduction, as no water needed for sealing bar cooling thanks to the Cryovac Ultraseal® sealing system • Electrical interface to start and stop the vacuum pump remotely, decreasing start up time • Automatic power saving facility when the machine is not used for a set period • Automatic bag neck precut for smooth product transfer • Can be easily integrated with upstream and downstream equipment for minimum manual handling • Depending on the machine version, switchable from hard vacuum process (vacuum nonsensitive products) to DC soft vacuum process (vacuum sensitive products) – The DC soft vacuum process allows for the packaging of vacuum sensitive products and achieves up to 2.5 cycles/min (depending on vacuum configuration and application) – Quick and easy production changeover between the hard and DC soft vacuum processes • Cryovac Ultraseal® system - microprocessor controlled sealing system, providing improved and constant sealing performance by optimized temperature control • Advanced Vacuum Control System (VCS) with permanent vacuum level control for longer shelf life • Stainless steel and surface-treated aluminium construction with a clean and dry technical compartment • All areas of the machine are accessible for inspection and washdown - open, accessible areas with no dirt traps • Motors and gearboxes in high contamination risk areas are of a hygienic construction with an IP 66 rating and fully washdown compliant • All conveyor belts can be quickly released for inspection and cleaning • All features contribute to an easy-to-clean machine • Ultravac for tight-fitting, enhanced pack appearance • Two different sealing bar heights 30/65 mm for optimal product presentation
