Quad Forming Sets for a VFFS Machine OEM
At BagForm, we specialise in delivering precision-engineered forming sets designed to enhance the efficiency and reliability of Vertical Fill Form Seal (VFFS) machines. Recently, we collaborated with a prominent VFFS machine OEM to develop bespoke quad seal forming sets tailored to improve packaging process for various dried fruit products.
Superior Quad Seal Packaging
The client sought a customised forming set solution for their VFFS machine, specifically designed to produce quad seal bags—a packaging format renowned for its stability, ample branding space, and consumer convenience.
These attributes make quad seal bags particularly suitable for dried fruit products, which require durable and attractive packaging to maintain freshness and appeal. In response, BagForm designed and manufactured precision quad seal forming sets that integrated seamlessly with the VFFS machines that would be packaging dried fruit.
Challenges in Dried Fruit Packaging
Packaging dried fruits presents unique challenges, including:
Product Stickiness: Dried fruits can be sticky, leading to potential blockages during the packaging process.
Consistent Bag Formation: Ensuring uniform bag shaping despite variations in product texture and density.
Seal Integrity: Maintaining reliable seals to preserve product freshness and prevent contamination.
Innovative Features of Our Quad Seal Forming Sets
To address these challenges, our quad seal forming sets were equipped with:
Teflon Coating: Internally coated with Teflon to minimise product adherence, reducing blockages and ensuring smooth product flow.
Optimised Film Handling: Engineered to facilitate smooth, wrinkle-free bag formation while maintaining precise gusset shaping—essential for the distinctive quad seal design.
Enhanced Efficiency and Packaging Quality
Following the implementation of the new quad seal forming sets, the dried fruit manufacturer experienced:
Increased Production Speed: Reduction in downtime caused by product flow interruptions.
Consistent Bag Quality: Uniform bag appearance and integrity, even during high-speed operations.
Seamless Integration: Compatibility with existing VFFS machinery, minimising the need for extensive line modifications.
Additionally, our forming sets are constructed from high-grade stainless steel, ensuring compliance with hygiene standards and facilitating easy cleaning between product runs—crucial for maintaining product quality in food production environments.
