How do I choose between an inline or side feed sleeve sealer?
There are a few important differences between the side feed and inline sleeve sealer models. A side feed can provide flexibility due to its pusher plate feature, which pushes the pack through the curtain of film. This offers the potential to wrap trayless packs. Furthermore, side feed models are designed so that you do not need to worry about gapping the product, but you would have to change parts for different sized packs. An inline sleeve sealer does not require any changeover of parts and is simpler in many ways as it consists of an infeed belt and outfeed belt with the curtain of film between the two. A slightly faster speed can be achieved on an inline system but trayless or very small packs cannot be wrapped because they would not maintain their collation as they transfer between the conveyors.
