The new Ishida QX-500 has been developed following detailed feedback from Ishida’s global customers and partners. This has resulted in the design of a compact tray sealer that can fit easily into new and existing packing lines and combines excellent seal quality and high throughput with helping companies to meet their sustainability targets.
The QX-500 delivers a 66% increase in cycle speed, a 44% reduction in weight, a 46% reduction in size and a 50% reduction in energy consumption. This means the new tray sealer significantly reduces waste and delivers a step change in productivity, says Ishida.
It is capable of up to 25 cycles per minute for seal only, and up to 17 cycles per minute for MAP, and is available with integrated film coding, gas mixing and integrated vacuum system.
A unique tool change system allows tools to be changed within ten minutes, without the need for additional manual handling equipment. A new tray delivery and transfer system offers unbeatably smooth tray and product handling properties to ensure maximum seal accuracy and spillage-free product transfer.
