Pillar Technologies for Heartland Wisconsin offers a mobile waterless cap sealer. The induction sealer, called Unifoiler, includes a flat sealing coil and a 2-kilowatt microprocessor controlled power supply that allows the unit to start automatically. The controls also allow operators to adjust output and to fine-tune the system’s loss-of-seal alarm. The entire system is mounted on a cart and includes leveling pads, a coil-height indicator, and 20 inches of coil height adjustment.
That way, it can accommodate many bottle heights as well as bottle closures of all diameters and designs.
According to Pillar customer New Life Nutrition who operates two bottling lines and shuttles the induction sealer between them based on the size of the production run, “From the beginning, it’s been just a phenomenal machine. It’s very accurate—it seals right the first time, every time. And we do products that are in 65-cubic centimeter bottles with 33-millimeter caps all the way up to products in 2,500-cubic-centimeter bottles with 110-millimeter caps.”
With the economy tight and companies cutting capital expenditures a mobile packaging machine makes a lot of sense.
