Horizontal Sealing Device > Sealing Jaws
Jaw Body
The jaw bodies create the heat needed to melt the inner film layer.
They consist of two halves. The upper half creates bottoms seals
while the lower half creates top seals. Within each body are two
replaceable heating cartridge and a replaceable temperature probe.
Both the cartridges and the probe are connected to a temperature
controller on the bagmaker control panel.
The face of the jaw body shows the jaw body profile. The profile is the
impression that the jaw leaves in the film. The profile increases the
strength of the seal and improves its appearance.
Note:
Remove the terminal housing cover to expose the replaceable
heating cartridges and the temperature probe.
