Semi-automatic tray sealer for ready meals

Achieve optimal freshness with consistent sealing, maximizing shelf life for various tray-packed foods using energy-efficient, all-electric technology.

The Proseal XTRs Tray Sealing Machine is designed for diverse industries such as food, pet food, and pharmaceuticals. This semi-automatic rotary-table unit excels in sealing efficiency by using an all-electric system—eliminating the need for compressed air and reducing energy costs. Its rapid-change tooling allows for switch between tray sizes in under five minutes, ensuring minimal downtime. With integrated HMI and recipe-driven controls, it streamlines operations and provides a user-friendly experience in multiple languages. Optional features like Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) extend product shelf life, making it ideal for manufacturers of products ranging from pureed baby foods to ready meals. The machine’s open and hygienic design simplifies cleaning and maintenance, while being fully portable and equipped with a PLC-based temperature control system. Additionally, it complies with industry standards, making it a reliable solution for stringent production environments.
