Packaging Automation and Perfect Automation collaboration launch Perfectseal

12 December 2016

Perfectseal, the latest collaboration between Packaging Automation and Perfect Automation brings two experienced, long established businesses together with a reputation for quality products and service that has been built up over 50 years. With a proven track record and knowledge of packaging materials and machinery design and manufacture to provide the perfect solution.

Perfectseal offers a package which includes a machine, packaging and service support for one monthly payment. A full range of trays is offered including the most cost effective biodegradable trays available in Australia. With specialist advice and trays, film and machines that are always in stock customers can get packing quickly and easily.

Perfectseal offers a quick and effortless means of transitioning into film sealed punnets and trays from clam shell or flow wrapped packs. Film sealed packs use less packaging than clam shell packs and are more space efficient for stacking and transportation resulting in cost savings. They also offer the ability to use packaging to create a stand out pack on the shelf. Due to the versatility of the packaging available, you can rapidly create an eye catching pack with colourful custom shaped trays and pre-printed branded film. Films can be supplied in a resealable specification to improve hygiene after opening and allow stacking of packs in the fridge. Films with micro perforations can also be used to allow produce to breathe particularly when used with fresh cut produce and modified atmosphere packs. In addition use by and sell by dates can simply be printed onto the film at the point of sealing to simplify the packing process further.

The options for different tray materials include plastic (including biodegradable), board, foil and compostable board.
A key advantage of Perfectseal is that all packaging formats can be sealed on the same machine with minimal interruption to the packing line. Switching from one tray or punnet shape to another and one printed film design to an alternative can be done in a matter of minutes.

Packaging Automation tray sealing machines are the fastest most energy efficient on the market today therefore producing the lowest cost per pack with a number of models available to suit the different levels of automation and production speeds in the market. For those who are new to film sealing, there are small machines offering speeds of up to 30 packs per minute whereas at the top end of the range the Revolution incorporates truly novel technology enabling it to surpass all other single lane sealers with speeds of up to 200 packs per minute. The Revolution technology gives a smooth profile of punnet transfer into the machine which allows lighter or more easily displaced products such as small berries or grape tomatoes to be transferred without spilling at high speed. All of the Revolution machines are fully electric and operate without the need for compressed air.

The Perfectseal package is provided by Perfect Automation of Sydney, Australia with machinery from the heat sealing specialists Packaging Automation of Knutsford, Cheshire in England. Perfect Automation offers pre-sale and aftermarket technical service for Perfectseal in Australia with a team of specialist machinery and packaging experts on hand to provide advice and support.
