FTNON Fast Line Inspections® seal tester

Accurate monitoring of flexible packaging to detect gas leaks

The correct atmosphere when packing is of great importance in maintaining quality. That defective, leaking packaging should leave the factory is undesirable for the following reasons:

• the safety of the product cannot be guaranteed
• the average product life is reduced
• products can arrive at the supermarket in an unfit state and this is taken into account

Manual monitoring is incomplete and costs labour. The FTNON Fast Line Inspections® seal tester was developed to solve this problem. The system has been fully tested in working conditions and is now available. Under this continuous system the packs come in contact with three small conveyor belts. Leakages are detected by means of the “Measure-Pressure-Measure-Compare“ principle. The system which is patented in the USA and Europe is fully servo controlled via a simple touch-screen. Product changeover takes place with a single touch on the screen, so no mechanical adjustments are necessary.

The system can be supplied in 2 executions:
- the MAP1 for detecting holes from ± 3.0 mm, and
- the MAP3 for detecting holes from 0.5 mm.

• pre-perforated packaging can also be monitored with this system
• even small leaks are detected
• labour is saved
• the product can be re-used
• an automatic case packing system is available as an option

FTNON delivers tailor-made machines. Therefore capacity and dimensions will depend on your product and specific requirements. All our machines are constructed of stainless steel wherever possible and comply with the stringent, international standards in the field of safety and hygiene.
