Fully Automatic

The Eclipse SL2 is the entry level automatic tray sealer combining medium speed output with quick tool changes and a compact space saving design. It can be used to seal reel fed film to pre-formed trays and can be configured to use MAP-F gas flushing for extended shelf life.

Dependant on the tray size and packing mode it can seal up to 3 packs at a time giving a maximum output of 54 packs per minute.

The Eclipse SL2 is designed to accommodate the top and base tools from the EC182 machine to provide a cost-effective transition to automation from semi-automatic tray sealing. Compressed air and electric supply is required for this machine.

A Fully Electric Automatic Tray Sealer – where innovation meets efficiency.

The REV machines are the fastest, most energy efficient and flexible single lane tray sealers incorporating PA’s latest technology and with the REV3 a small and compact footprint.  Using proven syncroflex control ensures a continuous flow of trays through the machine from infeed to outfeed, eliminating the need for any pausing or buffering.  To add to its versatility it can accommodate Eclipse 182 and Eclipse R tools to aid transition from manual to automatic technology.

Synchronised Transfer

With the developments improving the ‘traditional stepper belt’ which is now a high-speed continuous flow the whole process cycle has been slowed down without reducing output.  The new synchronised transfer movement is linked to the pickup point and is dramatically reduced in transfer speed.  This gives a fully controlled pack transfer cycle.

The key benefits of this development are:

• Increased cycle speeds
• Less aggressive transfers
• Reduction in product movement in the tray
• Eliminates misplaced packs
• Increases longevity of the transfer carriage
