Operation

  • Operator places blisters or trays in nesting tray
  • Operator loads product, puts lidding stock in place, and activates the power shuttle switch
  • The rest is automatic. The powered shuttle tray precisely positions the packages. Packages are then sealed at predetermined temperature, pressure, and dwell time settings. Finally the powered shuttle tray returns automatically to the load/unload position
  • Operator removes sealed packages to complete the cycle
