GT1e Fully Automatic Machine

At the core of the ‘e’ design is its flexibility to perform any style of heat seal to a pre-formed tray, be that atmospheric, MAP, VMAP , Skin, Skin Plus or Skin Deep. Each of these options can be added now or at a later date, or indeed removed as necessary. This flexibility provides the user with the assurance that whatever the latest packaging trend might be, they have equipment suitably geared for the future.

Capable of producing up to 60 Vacuum/Gas packs per minute with a 5 Impression tool, the GT1e system is packed with user-friendly benefits including our unique Promotion modular conveyor system.

Designed to accept randomly spaced trays from any conveyor and can be fully integrated with other line equipment.
