Watch this video of a Modified Atmosphere Packaging Equipment including a MAP Gas Flush Pouch Sealer, a Rotary Modified Atmosphere Packaging Machine and a In-Line Modified Atmosphere Packaging Machine.
This video shows how Modified Atmosphere Packaging Equipment works: The food is packed in to a APET, CPET or PP tray or bag and either conveyed or manually placed into the flushing/sealing area of the Modified Atmosphere Packaging Equipment. Once in the seal area, if the package is a tray it either receives a lid or a film barrier ready for sealing. In some cases a vacuum is applied to the bag or package and then in both cases a specifically chosen MAP gas flushes the headspace area of the tray or bag. The package now has a Modified Atmosphere and the film, lid or bag is quickly sealed before a significant amount of the gas is lost.
Rotary Modified Atmosphere Packaging Machine is for more automated MAP applications. The Rotary MAP Machine can be outfitted with automatic container feeding, filling and finished package rejection options for production speeds up to 45 trays per minute with 0.05% residual oxygen. These modified atmosphere packaging machines can be used for producing packaged meat, fish, fruit and vegetables, ready to eat meals, salads, sandwiches, pasta, baked goods, cakes, cookies, pastries, dairy products, cheeses, yogurt, creams, dry goods, nuts, dry fruit, powders, spices, mixes salad dressings and sauces.
