Vacuum-Equipped Rotary Monobloc Systems for DoyPack Pouches
Vacuum Rotary DoyPack Machines: MAP/Gas Flushing 4.0K Pouches/Hour
Individual-vacuum-chambers-doypack-machine.
Automated rotary systems with integrated vacuum/gas flushing for oxygen-sensitive products. Extend shelf life up to 400% while maintaining pouch integrity across food, pharma, cosmetic, and tobacco industries.
Vacuum Sealing: 5-50 mbar residual pressure for perishables (meats, cosmetics)
Gas Flushing: N₂/CO₂ injection (O₂ < 0.3%) for oxidation-prone products
Dual-Mode Operation: Switch between vacuum/MAP (modified atmosphere packaging) in < 10 minutes
Advanced Vacuum Technology in Compact Footprint
LOCUS ROBOTICS’ vacuum rotary monoblocs integrate dedicated vacuum chambers into our carousel platform, delivering oxygen-free packaging in a space-saving design. Key advantages:
50% smaller footprint than linear systems
Synchronized dual turntables for continuous processing
5-sec vacuum cycles at ≤50 mbar residual pressure
Gas flushing option (N₂/CO₂) for MAP applications
