Speedy sealer hits the market

Heat sealing specialist Proseal has launched a top-of-the-range tray sealer, specially designed for fresh fruit and other fast production lines.

The new Proseal GT3 incorporates a variety of new features designed to maximise throughput and minimise downtime, including a pioneering three dimensional tray positioning system and offers a top speed in excess of 180 trays per minute.

The GT3’s three axis servo drive tray transfer system helps to maximise tray throughput by automatically adjusting for different tray heights. This eliminates the need for tray height specific change-parts and means that all height settings can be programmed through touch screen.

Speeds are further increased for the GT3 Twin with a true twin lane feed control which enables products to be fed independently down each lane.

Proseal director Rob Hargreaves said: “Speed is a critical issue for many companies and the GT3 responds to this need while ensuring that efficiencies and pack quality are not compromised in any way.”
