Here's how a double chamber vacuum packing machine generally works:
- Placement of Products: The operator places the products to be packaged in the designated area of one chamber. These products can be food items, perishable goods, industrial components, or any other items that require a vacuum-sealed packaging.
- Sealing the Chamber: Once the products are placed in the chamber, the operator closes the chamber door securely, ensuring an airtight seal.
- Evacuation of Air: The vacuum packing machine starts the packaging process by removing air from the chamber. It creates a low-pressure environment within the chamber by using a vacuum pump or a venturi system. The pump removes air from the chamber, creating a vacuum.
- Sealing the Package: Once the desired level of vacuum is achieved, the machine seals the package. It uses a heat-sealing mechanism to close and seal the packaging material (such as plastic bags or pouches) around the products. The heat sealing ensures an airtight seal, preventing air from re-entering the package.
- Transfer to Second Chamber: While one chamber is sealing and packaging, the operator can load the second chamber with products to be packaged. This allows for continuous packaging operations, maximizing efficiency.
- Releasing Vacuum and Opening Chamber: Once the sealing process is complete, the vacuum inside the chamber is released, and the chamber door is opened. The packaged products can be removed, and the chamber is ready for the next cycle.
