S106 Professional Commercial Vacuum Sealer

Description

This is a bench mounted or free standing probe type external vacuum sealer.

If you are sealing modern barrier materials such as foils and nylon laminates up to 900mm in width this is the machine with both jaws heated.

Seal Length options    500mm    600mm    750mm    900mm

Seal Width 6mm standard.   Optional  2.5mm, 9mm, 12.5mm and 20mm

Manual and automatic vacuum clamp jaws are available with either solenoid or pneumatic sealing jaw operation. A range of vacuum pumps are available between 6 and 15m cube/hr. The vacuum cycle can be manual, automatically timed or programmed to a preset level. As your bag is not placed inside a chamber there is no real limit to the maximum product length.

External, nozzle or probe type vacuum sealers are ideal for larger plastic bags. These are more suitable for dry products but not for liquids.

This vacuum sealer can be finished in powder coated mild steel. Options include a support tray and gas flush.

For food or for more corrosive environments we can offer a stainless steel finish.

The Star vacuum sealer 106 is available with four different seal cycle controllers:

The MkVI controller offers weld and cool control to the nearest 1/10th of a second and has a built in programme to help counteract the effects of heat build-up during frequent sealing. The MkVI C has weld and cool control to the nearest °C.  Adjustment can be made by the keypad with an LCD readout of the settings. The keys can also be locked to prevent unauthorised alteration.

The Star ARTICS controller and Medical controller are suitable where  more accurate controls are required, the also allow the element to ramp up to a weld temperature and be held for a time. Cooling time or temperature and element preheat are also included. This allows for a perfect weld to be achieved every cycle. All settings are password protected and the board allows up to 8 different sets of parameters to be programmed. Alarm parameters can be set to give operational tolerances; seal cycle data storage is available with a Medical controller.

Made in the United Kingdom by Star.

All Star heat sealers can be fitted with a range of control options.

The process of impulse heat sealing involves heating the material being sealed beyond its melt point, pressing the two layers together then cooling it to produce a solid seal. The more control over the weld temperature, weld time and cooling temperature the better and more consistent the weld produced. Welds produced without enough heat or time can look sealed but may separate if pressure is applied. Welds produced without enough cooling appear to be molten and are weaker than a weld that has been allowed to cool under pressure properly. Welds produced without enough pressure may separate easily or appear molten even if enough heat and cool are used. To prevent unauthorised alteration of the sealing parameters the MkVI and MkVI C controllers come complete with a built in keypad lock. The Star ARTICS and Medical controllers have multi level pass code protection to aid with validation process control.

Star bag sealers and vacuum sealers offer you the option of four different controllers which are available on most of our machine range. The MkVI controller is fitted as standard (with the exception of the Medical Vacuum Sealer). Like most impulse sealers, this uses a weld and cool time (the element heats up for the weld time and is off for the cool time). Unlike most other heat sealers the weld and cool times are displayed to the nearest 1/10th of a second and the controller includes a heat build up compensation program.

The MkVI C allows the weld and cool temperature to be set. This allows it to automatically adjust for problems with heat build up. The element heats up until it reaches the weld temperature, then is turned off. The jaws open once the cool temperature is reached, allowing the material being sealed to set properly before release.

The Star ARTICS controller takes the level of control even further. The heating element heats up to the weld temperature and holds the set temperature for a set time. It then cools the element to a temperature or time, dependent on application. There is also a preheat option so the machine heats the element to a set temperature when not in use. When fitted to a Medical Vacuum machine the ARTICS controller also controls the vacuum and gas flush times.

The Star Medical controller has the same features as the ARTICS controller, with the additional features of measuring and controlling the weld pressure, independent second temperature control (if a second element is used) and seal cycle data storage for upload to a computer. When fitted to the Medical Vacuum Sealer the Star Medical controller also measures and controls the vacuum and gas flush levels in mBar.
