Tag tray sealing

For many brands, horizontal form-fill-seal (FFS) equipment represents a significant investment. FFS machines can be the most expensive machine on the packaging line. To maximize return on the investment, companies re-purpose machines for packaging a range of products. This makes quick tooling changes an attractive feature.

Over the last few years, ORICS Industries has worked to ease changeover in our FFS-30 for changing package sizes. We understand that our customers have been looking for ways to make it more efficient.

The ease of changeover can depend upon how easy it is to get tools in and out. Tools are often heavy and require a lot of muscle to remove and replace. This can result in injury risks, such as strained backs, broken fingers, etc. The risk of damage to tools is also heightened.

Changeover varies in complexity. The change may simply be to the packaging material, maintaining the same packaging footprint. Or, an entirely new package size or style may be needed. The amount of tooling changes depends on the degree of packaging change.

Tooling that can be changed includes forming dies, sealing platens, and cutting knives. There are control issues that may need to be changed to accommodate different packages, such as changing temperature, pressure, and index length. And there are peripheral issues associated with things like lot coders and in-line printers to changeover.

Should You Change?

Many companies that employ FFS machinery do so because they want better productivity and lower costs. Higher volumes may justify a dedicated packaging line, thus obviating the need for routine changeover. A daily production on FFS could be more than 100,000 packages, depending on the product being manufactured. Thus, the goal is often not to change out tooling.”

There may be other reasons for foregoing changeover. Validation of FFS is directly tied into forming tooling, loading, printing, sealing, and cutting. This process, when properly done, can take up to a week or more per tooling set. Once this activity is successfully completed, manufacturers would not want to upset the apple cart by making changes. This is also reinforced by the fact that FFS runs are generally three shifts for many weeks, sometimes months.

A partial if not complete validation would be required every time tooling is changed out. Depending upon the actual situation, the cost of the re-validation could exceed the potential cost savings of ‘quick-change’ tooling.

Expanding markets are driving new innovation

Increasing advancement in packaging technology for variety of end-use application increases the expectations that the demand will grow further in the next ten years. Manual tasks are quickly being replaced by automatic packaging machines in many industries. Most of the demand for packaging machinery is generated from the food & beverages industry due to significant growth in the consumption of the packaged food.

New Formats Create The Need For New Solutions.

New packaging formats in the e-commerce and food & beverages industry are gaining popularity which has created the need for development of product-specific packaging machinery. Packaging machinery manufacturers are innovating in terms of increasing the efficiency of existing products and the development of customized products according to the requirement of customers.

Global demand for packaging machinery is growing and light speed. ORICS Industries is leading the way in terms of offering highly sophisticated and automated packaging machinery.

These packaging machines are widely used in different end-use industries, prominently in the food & beverages industry, for products that are shipped in cups, tubs, trays, jars, bowls, etc. Form fill and seal machines are increasingly gaining traction in the emerging market due to the integration of three processes in a single system.

More and more end-use companies are demanding integrated packaging machinery rather than purchasing different machinery for a specific application. Integration of packaging machinery has also propelled the demand for turnkey packaging machinery globally.

At ORICS Industries, we’re finding new markets such as cosmetics, cannabis, tissue, and all sorts of consumer goods are increasing demand for integrated automation solutions. Are key markets remain Fresh Produce, Meat, Poultry & Seafood, Dairy/ Deli, Ready Meals, Medical & Pharmaceutical and Institutional distribution.

Food producers often operate within narrow margins and under high quality standards. When it comes to maximizing profitability and providing consumers with an even better product, automation can be a competitive edge. ORICS industries has been leading the way in the field of automated packaging systems for the food industry since 1990.

Automation systems are now considered essential in virtually all sectors of the food industry and are solving some basic long-standing challenges:

Quality Control

Quality is the major concern for both food alpha pharma producers and consumers. Packaging automation enables suppliers to notice and isolate defects, ensuring faulty products do not enter the marketplace and underlying manufacturing faults are corrected.

Improved Safety

Automation can provide a more granular view of every step of food packaging. Producers can adapt more quickly to changes in safety standards because a change in one process will not introduce unexpected consequences in other areas.

End to End Accountability

Traceability is a growing concern in the food packaging industry. By streamlining traceability, food producers can cut down on regulatory compliance costs and continuously improve key processes.

Expanding Delivery Territory

Modified Atmosphere Packaging, M.A.P., using automatic systems like those ORICS provides enables suppliers to market food products at greater distances from the packaging origin.

Extending Shelf Life

Modified Atmosphere enables fresh and minimally processed packaged food products to maintain visual, textural and nutritional appeal. The controlled MAP environment enables food packaging to provide an extended shelf life without requiring the addition of chemical preservatives or stabilizers.

Protecting the Brand

Food producers rely upon their brand reputation to maintain a good relationship with the end consumer. A single product recall or disease outbreak can be enough to shutter a business – and it can throw customers’ lives into chaos. In the end, automation means brand protection.

Orics Industries caters to a wide range of industries producing an even wider range of products,  candy and condiments, and fresh and frozen foods, to industrial goods and pharmaceuticals.

The ORICS S-30 1×3 heart shaped candy Chocolate tray sealing machine.

This ORICS S-30 1×3 system was this candy manufacturer’s heart’s desire. Manually placed, chocolate-filled, heart-shaped trays are placed into the S-30’s carriers. Designed with manual loading in mind, the system is designed to wait until all the carriers are filled, prior to advancing into the heat seal sector (though that feature had been turned off for testing in our facility). This heat seal is one of the best examples of ORICS’ ability to handle unusually shaped trays. In fact, our floating heads design is uniquely appropriate for these unusually shaped trays, ensuring that a positive seal is achieved around the entire perimeter of the tray. Additionally, ORICS’ seal heads ONLY apply heat to the containers’ flange, ensuring that the product inside the trays remains cool and undamaged. This technique also saves you money as we do not heat the entire seal head; only the area directly over the flange.

Like all ORICS products, the S-30 is manufactured in the United States at our Farmingdale, NY facility. For more information call 718-461-8613, visit us on the web at www.orics.com or email us at sales@orics.com.
