Initially a bulk packer for restaurants and retail fresh seafood cases, Inland Market Premium Foods recently launched an exclusive, high-end Inland Market retail brand on a nationwide basis. The Atlanta-based firm’s quality entrees include bronzed tilapia, king crab cakes, beef Wellington, and chicken cordon bleu wrapped in puff pastry.

Inland also gets a boost from the equipment side. Operators erect the cartons from flat blanks and then insert the film-wrapped and frozen product into the cartons. At this point the operator puts the loaded carton into a Twinseal carton sealer fromEconocorp(www.econocorp.com) with only the trailing dust flaps closed. The infeed plow rail automatically closes the leading dust flaps and inner major flaps as the carton approaches the gluing area. The machine cycle is automatically initiated when a carton reaches the proper position in the Twinseal. Hot melt glue is then applied to the underside of both outer major flaps simultaneously and the carton is lifted automatically into a vertical compression area. Finished cartons are discharged down a delivery chute back to a convenient working height and go through a metal detector from梅特勒 - 托莱多高速(www.mt.com/hi-speed)。

“We wanted an entry-level machine that would be a work horse for us,” says Evan Pihera, the company’s project manager. He notes that the machine came to his attention throughX-CEL系统(phone: 931/456-6889), an Econocorp distributor.

“Twineeal代表了一个小额投资,以获得生产力的一些真实增加,”Pihera说。“我们以前用胶带和其他手动密封方法玩弄了10名员工的换档,只需每分钟包装和密封约10纸箱。通过Twineeal,我们每分钟运行18个纸箱,只有两个运营商。这是完美的入门级机器。“
