Machine Specification is dependent on the size of the container and the machine applications. Cycle
time is reduced with the introduction of the gas flushing.

The oxygen residual capability could be adjustable and is dependent on the container size, the type of
product application, flushing dwell time requirements and the gas purity used.

Operation
a.
After connecting the plug to the AC power source, the power indicator light will be turned
“on”.
b.
When the
power on” key is pressed, the microcomputer will automatically check if all
sensors and switches are functioning. When all are operational, the lower mould will move to
the initial eject position.
This power on checking procedure will take approximately five
seconds.
The sealing film system is also checked by the machine control system at all times.
c.
Once the power has been switched on, the first heating time interval will take approximately
five minutes, (this depends on the set temperature, and the environment temperature). After
reaching the set temperature, the heating indicator light will switch “off” automatically.
d.
The machine can be operated manually or automatically (and this can be set on the control
panel). On MANU (manual) mode, the operator needs to press the MANUAL button to
perform the sealing function. During AUTO mode, the container photo sensor will be
triggered to perform the sealing function.
e.
During the sealing process, the upper mould is pushed down against the lower mould using a
constant air pressure to obtain a fast and even sealing . When the sealing film is heat sealed
onto the container, a cutter blade concealed in the upper mould will cut the sealing film to its
predefined shape.
f.
The lower mould will eject automatically after the sealing and cutting function; ready for the
next cycle.
g.
Remove the container after sealing and perform (e).
h.
To shutdown the machine, turn off by pressing the Power key, and then disconnect the plug to
the AC power
