Econoseal T-System Tray Former

Form, Load and Seal Up to 25 Trays per Minute

The Econoseal T-System is comprised of a tray former (Econolock or Econoform), a flighted conveyor, and a Reverse Tri Seal or Straight Line Closer. It will form corner glue, corner lock, or simplex style locking trays with a hinged cover, place them on a belt conveyor for loading, and seal them using hot melt glue at speeds of up to 25 per minute.

Operation

1. Flat blank is automatically pulled from a supply magazine with vacuum cups.

2. Flat blank is feed forward to forming area via a set of feed fingers.

3. A mandril plunges the blank through a tooling cavity where it is corner glued, corner locked or folded over.

4. The completed formed tray is discharged straight down on to a variable speed, continuous motion, flighted conveyor.

5. The standard machine has 6 feet (1830mm) of load area for an operator or robot to load product in to the formed trays.

6. The loaded tray is transferred 90 degrees in to the Reverse Triseal or Straight Line Closer where the tray is sealed with hot melt glue and discharged from the machine.
