What is Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP)?Modified atmosphere packing (MAP) packs are produced by evacuation and gas flushing. This combination gas usually consists of carbon dioxide, nitrogen and oxygen.
A gas flushing for modified atmosphere is incorporated prior to heat-sealing of the container.
What gases are application in Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP)?Combination gases as follows is very often used
Oxygen (O2): in high concentration inhibits the growth of aerobic microorganisms.
Nitrogen (N2): mainly used as a stabilizing gas to maintain the pack volume for protection during handling or as transportation packaging.
Carbon dioxide (CO2): reacts with water to form carbonic acid, which helps to lower the PH. This atmosphere inhibits the growth of micro-organisms.
Why has Modified Atmosphere Packing (MAP) become popular?In the case of fresh meat and poultry, fresh pasta and baked products, and fresh-prepared foods, the modified atmosphere compliments refrigeration to retard chemical and/or microbiological deterioration of the food.
Packaging many fresh fruits and vegetables in a modified atmosphere with selected low oxygen content and elevated carbon dioxide content reduces respiration, with resulting increase in shelf life.
Why choose our Gas flushing MAP machine?
- Reliability, durability and Long service life
- Individually tailored solutions
- High production output and pack quality
What are our Modified Atmosphere Packing (MAP) machine features?
- It is suitable for packaging of fresh meat, poultry, pasta and baked goods, fruits and vegetables which is loaded in rectangular, polyhedral, round and oval trays, by means of a continuous automatic vacuuming, filling into the mixed gas, sealing, cutting, packaging finishing process.
- Thanks to the precise photoelectric tracking, color and optical film is successful applicate as cover web; also automatic tracking the prepared packing tray in case of non-tray or in wrong placement, optimize the packaging process.
- PLC control and Servo driving result a reliable process and easy operation.
- Sealing pressure, temperature and time which can be precisely controlled in 0.01 seconds ensure an excellent sealing with different packaging films.
- The machine is made of SUS304 food grade stainless steel material and acid resistant aluminium alloy.
Option
- Automatic coding system
- Die set customized
Attention Please
MAP Packing Machine need to prepare the tray container in advance, this is different to the thermoforming vacuum packing machine.
