G. Mondini Stainless Steel Tray Filling and Sealing Line with Trave 1400 T Automatic Tray Sealer

Description:

This line is designed to denest, fill, and seal your ready meal products at a rate of up to 140
trays per minute. A buffer system will feed a dual magazine inclined tray denester which will denest the trays
onto a 26.5 meter dual lane, single chain, servo driven, enhanced sanitary design chain
conveyor. The piston trays will then be advanced continuously in two lanes, long edge
leading. Three moving head carriages will reciprocate both the nozzles and funnels of two piston
fillers and one overhead scale. Scale to be provided by third party and integrated with
Mondini moving head carriage. Additionally two topping dosers will fill the trays with
continuous motion. The trays will then be received from the filling conveyor and sealed 12-up, long edge leading
at a rate of up to 12 cycles per minute. After sealing the trays will be rotated to short edge
leading and combined into a single lane.
