Hermetic Flow Wrap Packages at High Speeds
The PFM Mistral changes the world of Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP), combining high packaging speeds with hermetic sealing. This flow-wrap packaging machine produces packages sealed on three sides from a roll of heat-sealable packaging film, the Mistral is designed for high-speed MAP packaging.
Benefits
With the long dwell, continuous flow, transverse sealing system, the Mistral reaches packaging speed of up to 140 packs per minute with the Long Dwell version and 400 packs per minute with the Long Dwell HS version.
The Mistral has a cantilever type construction. This means the various mechanical and electronic parts are situated at the rear of the machine in separate and protected compartments, where the product conveyor belts and sealing area are found at the front. As a result, the front of the machine is obstruction-free and allows any product residue to be cleaned easily without it ever coming into contact with the mechanical or electronic workings.
The Mistral has ease of operation, minimum maintenance, and high-quality of component parts.
