Tecno Pack proposes FP027, a flow-pack packaging machine for customised packaging of any kind of cheese, extending its shelf-life without altering its organoleptic properties. The machine can be used for creating packages that preserve the contents from external factors and shocks. Film printing and labelling systems supply complete and accurate information (weight, price, bar-code, packaging time/shift, best-before date) for safe traceability. The performance is up to 100 ppm based on the 350×180-mm size; the packs are hermetically sealed using barrier film, thus allowing considerable savings compared to heat-forming systems. Flow packs in modified atmosphere provide for longer shelf-life, also thanks to the pre-heating of the gas introduced into the pack. The highly-accurate control of gas temperature allows to pack both, standard as well as vacuum packs. The cantilevered structure allows complete separation of frame, moving parts, drives and electric system, a guarantee for hygiene and quick cleaning and sanification.
