Introduction
Our band sealers are equipped with electronic temperature controllers and variable speed conveyors to
seal all types of thermoplastic materials (PP, PE, stand up pouches, gusseted bags, moisture barrier bags,
etc.). Seals are created using PTFE bands which maintain high seal quality and produce consistently
strong, clean seals on all heat sealable bags. Because bags are placed on a conveyor system, the width of
the bag does not matter. These versatile machines offer several adjustments which allow them to be used
for a wide range of applications. These machines are used extensively in the food, medical, chemical,
cosmetic, and electronic industries.
The FRM-1120C band sealer adopts dry ink coding designed to print date and lot codes at the seal line.
Ink dries instantly upon contact with packaging materials and produces clear and legible characters. For
FRM-1120C, the standard font size is 18PT which allows for two-line printing. An optional 10.5PT font
size which allows for three-line printing can be purchased separately. Please ask your distributor for more
information.
The FRS-1120W band sealer adopts hot stamp printing to print date and lot codes at the seal line. Hot
stamp printing is similar to an analog printing press. Color ribbon printing provides a stronger adhesion
print than dry ink coding and works best for humid environments.
The FRM-1120C / FRS-1120W are stand alone units with casters providing easy mobility for the band
sealer. In addition, the sealer is equipped with a tilting mechanism which allows the conveyor to tilt up
to 30 degrees, ideal for packaging liquids and grains.
