Flexible Bag Closers
The USC-300 static sealer closer is designed to enable manual sealing and closing of pre-glued fold-top bags in low volume production plants.
Sealer Closer - USC-300
USC-300 Operator Controls
The GEA ultrasealer closer (USC-300) is a compact sealing and closing system for use with step-top multi-wall Kraft bags that have a polyethylene (PE) inner bag. For bags without an inner liner, the USC-300 can be used as a bag/sack top fold/closing system,making it versatile flexible solution for most customers’ needs.
This sealer/closer is designed for static operation where the bag rests on a roller conveyor or platform where the operator can manually control the bag throughout the handling and closing process.
Bags are manually presented to the sealer for semi-automatic sealing and closing operation using either a foot-switch or push-button control. Solid state control provides a reliable but flexible operation to suit a wide range of bag types. Temperature control is provided for both inner liner seal and to reactivate the pre-applied glue strip. Height adjustment is provided to ensure safe operation and to match existing bag handling equipment.
Companies like GEA process and store large amounts of sensitive data. However, security incidents, from ransomware attacks to physical intrusions and industrial espionage, are ever-expanding. GEA’s effective protection of its business partners’ data – as well as its own proprietary information – is evolving into a competitive advantage. We spoke with Iskro Mollov, GEA’s Chief Information Security Officer, about what it takes to protect a global business in a volatile world.
Resource-efficient fashion has been a long-sought ambition amid the fashion industry’s considerable contributions to global carbon emissions. The need to close the loop by recycling textile fibers into virgin-like materials is higher than ever but seemed like a distant dream until now: Circ, GEA’s American customer and pioneer in the field of textile recycling, might be rewriting the future of the fashion industry.
Alternative proteins are promising – yet still expensive to produce. The usual response is that scaling up will solve this issue. But what if the solution was really about getting better, not just bigger? From more efficient, high-yield processes to upcycling waste heat, engineers are reshaping how we grow food.
