ULMA Packaging has introduced the FM 400 horizontal flow wrap packaging machine which is designed to meet the demands of high-speed Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) applications in the fresh food sector.
With up to 150 packs per minute production capability, the machine combines speed and precision using a Long-Dwell sealing head. This orbital movement technology is said to ensure hermetically sealed packaging at high speed, which is essential for maintaining product integrity and extending shelf life through MAP.
The FM 400 can cope with demanding washdown environments. Its stainless-steel construction and vertical plate design allow for intensive hot water and chemical cleaning. All external electronics are rated IP66 or higher, providing maximum resistance to water and dust ingress, making it ideal for the most challenging fresh food production settings.
The machine can be configured in multiple formats, including top reel, bottom reel, and side seal options and is compatible with a wide range of barrier films – from traditional laminates to shrink materials.
