Mecapack O² 5000 MAP tray-sealing machine

The O² 5000 inline modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) machine is Mecapack’s smallest inline tray-sealing machine, suitable for users with small to medium production rooms and limited floor space. With a completely washable free-draining body and stainless steel construction allowing easy access for tooling and format changes and cleaning, the machine offers a combination of compact footprint, hygienic design and efficiency.

The product utilises an IP65 colour touch screen, brushless motor technology and commercially available electronics. Optional Plexiglass guarding allows the operator easy visual access to the tooling/sealing area for monitoring of the machine operation. Programming is easy due to an intuitive 10″ colour touch screen for all settings and parameters and on-screen assistance.

Available in configurations for single- or double-lane operation and speeds of up to 15 cycles/min (sealing) and 12 cycles/min (vacuum and gas), production rates of up to 60 packs/min are achievable on 8 x 5 or 9 x 7 trays working in double-lane format. The machine can work with the following sealing processes: standard/laminate films; shrink films; aluminium/foil films; inside cut; Skinfresh vacuum skin packing (VSP) where the film is totally sealed around the product; and Slicepak.
