What is an Induction Machine?



Induction sealers seal aluminum laminated lining to the top (bunghole) of plastic containers. This lining consistof several layers of materials, tipically one metallic layer over a thermoplastic layer. When the container is positioned next to an active induction head, one or more induction coils excite the metallic molecules of metallic layer. This ultrahigh frequency vibration causes the metal layer to heat up, which in turn melts the thermoplastic layer of the lining causing it to fuse to the top of the container. This seal is hermetic and impermeable to gases, in efect, the lining become a part of the container. From this point on nothing enters or exits the container until the lining is puctured. For his reason induction sealers are used widely trough out many industries. The process is extremely simple, and can be accurately repeated time after time.
Induction machines can seal both plastic and glass containers. Containers must have flat threaded caps.
Advantages of Induction Sealing:
- Tamper resistance.
- Protection from the elements.
- Keeps humidity levels stable.
- Product freshness.
- No product leakage.
- Extended shelf life.
- Improved product perception.
- Seals product aroma.
- Seals in flavors.
- Keeps out odors.
- Tamper evident.
- Cleanliness.
