eclipse SL4
The Eclipse SL4 is a fully electric automatic tray sealer combining medium speed output with quick tool changes and a compact space saving design. Incorporating POWERDRIVE™ technology, there is no requirement for a compressed air supply. It can be used to seal reel fed film to pre-formed trays and can be configured to use MAP-F gas flushing, full MAP-V vacuum and SkinPAC for extended shelf life.
Dependant on the tray size it can seal up to 5 packs at a time giving a maximum output of 75 packs per minute. Electric supply only is required for this machine. It has a bed size of 725mm.
