Matrix to Exhibit its Vertical FFS Solutions for Efficient Poultry/Protein Packaging Applications in Booth C13104 at IPPE in Atlanta

Matrix Packaging Machinery returns to IPPE demonstrating it’s MVC-300 Premier and Pacraft TT-8D-N in booth C13104 during the International Production & Processing Expo (IPPE), January 24-26, 2023, at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta.

The Matrix solutions in action are reliable vertical form fill seal and pre-made pouch packaging machines designed to handle egg products, individually quick-frozen (IQF) foods and other select products within the poultry/protein markets.

Matrix manufacturers vertical form fill seal machines, operating widely throughout the food industry and poultry/protein markets, and will demonstrate:

MVC-300 Premier

The MVC-300 Premier is a servo-driven continuous box-motion bagger with a 95% stainless steel sanitary design to optimize hygienic packaging in poultry/protein applications.

The MVC-300 (which stands for Matrix Vertical Continuous Motion / 300 mm Wide Jaw) uses a continuous-motion, high-speed jaw system that is unique from other vertical form fill seal machines because the film never stops. The jaw system cuts the film and provides just enough dwell time for the three bag seams to properly seal. This innovative feature allows users to achieve higher fill rates, making the MVC-300 Matrix’s most advanced vertical form fill seal machine.

A newer feature to the MVC-300 Premier is remote diagnostic and connectivity control. These advantages allow remote diagnostic, training, and maintenance assistance without danger of facility firewall compromise. Additionally, users can connect the machine and HMI to update code or fix issues – negating the need to remove the PLC.

Finally, the MVC-300 offers fast, efficient changeovers with its Autopro Automatic Changeover System. This valuable feature does all the heavy lifting by eliminating manual adjustments such as hand cranks and thumb screws in favor of precision electronic motion control to effectively remove time-consuming adjustments during changeover.

Pacraft TT-8D-N

Matrix is the North American distributor for Pacraft, and its TT-8D-N pre-made pouch filler/sealer, which is designed for a wide variety of applications in the poultry/protein packaging industry. Its pouch formats and product types include flat, stand-up, retort and press-to-close pouch styles. With performance that seals up to 55 pouches per minute, pouch sizes between 4.72” to 10.23” (120 – 260mm), and length between 5.11” to 15.74” (130 – 400mm), the TT-8D-N provides users with several options to best fit their application.

Matrix has a strong commitment to sustainability, both in its machines and in collaborating closely with its customers to develop packaging solutions that meet their sustainability goals. Matrix machines can run several green film materials, including compostable and recyclable films.
