Series Description

Starview’s PHS1 Series impulse jaw type sealing machines are used to make a continuous bar seal across one open end or side of a plastic-to-plastic clamshell package.  The standard machines feature one impulse heated sealing jaw with provision for optional air or water cooling of the jaws to improve the cycle time.  Both the upper and lower jaws are heated and cooled. Custom machines with wider sealing areas are available on request.

For machines capable of higher production rates, profile sealing and automation Starview’s PHS Rotary, PHSA Automatic Rotary and BSC II Automatic Carousel Series should be considered.

Machine Operation

The operator places the edge of the clamshell to be sealed between the sealing jaws and depresses the foot pedal momentarily to initiate the cycle.  The heating and cooling cycles are automatic and the jaws release at the end of the cycle. Since the machine operation is hands free, an operator with good dexterity could seal two identical packages at the same time depending on the package width.  Once the jaws open the operator removes the package(s) and repeats the cycle. Most hinged clamshells can be sealed on three sides by inserting the open sides one at a time.
