have been extremely pleased with the results we have seen from Ceetak ’ s QPH sealing technology . Since the retrofit on our machines we ’ ve seen a decrease in film costs and spares . The quality of the seals and overall appearance of the packs has been impressive and we have seen a significant reduction in the amount of reworks required . Our operatives have reported positive feedback on the ease of use of the technology and we have seen increased productivity due to minimal maintenance and reduced downtime .”
Alongside the superior seal characteristics of the QPH seal technology , the unique blade and anvil design minimises cleaning and maintenance – the special cutter design has no areas where product or film can escape or gather and therefore demonstrates exceptional standards of hygiene .
The heat of the blade is carefully maintained and controlled ; therefore film material is rarely burnt onto the equipment ( as is common with crimp sealing jaws ). This leads to longer service life , reduced maintenance costs and associated downtime on the production floor , as well as reduced costs associated with spares and consumable parts .
The system also has improved Health & Safety features in comparison with traditional sealing methods ; with no sharp cutting knives , and no hot bars to touch , it is safer for operators on the production floor .
Phil Hyde , QPH Business Development Account Manager said ; “ The Quick Pulse Heat sealing system offers manufacturers and retailers a cost effective way to reduce the amount of film packaging waste associated with their products without compromising the quality of the seal . With an estimated 1.2 million tonnes of plastic film arising every year in the UK waste stream alone ( with around two-thirds of this post-consumer ); our technology could make a huge difference to supporting individual manufacturer ’ s Corporate Social Responsibility initiatives in regards to waste . Alongside this , the additional improvements in processes , and cost reductions from the production floor are extremely attractive benefits of the technology that are hard for manufacturers to ignore .”
