1. Introduction
Super Sealer REI-90F tabletop gas flushing sealing machine models are suitable for films from reel.
Ideally suited for small to medium batch operations, new product development, testing and market
samples.
The machine offers superior quality machine suitable for small and medium food processing factories.
Suitable for any sealable cups and trays such as PP, PE, PET, PVC, Card Board or Foil Trays.
MAIN FEATURES
• Up to about 8 cycles per minute
• Gas Flushing (MAP)
• Stainless steel SUS 304 frame construction and components are standard
• Requires pneumatic compressed air supply 2HP (600KPa, 20L/M).
• Sealing moulds can be exchangeable for different tray for about 5 minutes only.
• Safety Features – gearless construction and safety front panel
• Container Photo Sensor or Manual option
• Film Sensor or Encoder option
• Film Border from 2mm (standard is 4mm) (Pull Tab Option can also be requested)
OPTIONALS
Options are not a simple “plug and play” type. The machine’s physical construction and the
control system are predefined as per customer requirements and specifications.
• Date Printer/Coder (hot ink manual)
• Interchangeable Mould
• Integrated Filling Machine (piston filler)

3. Operation
a. After connecting the plug to the AC power source, the power indicator light will be turned
“on”.
b. When the

power on” key is pressed, the microcomputer will automatically check if all
sensors and switches are functioning. When all are operational, the lower mould will move to
the initial eject position. This power on checking procedure will take approximately five
seconds. The sealing film system is also checked by the machine control system at all times.
c. Once the power has been switched on, the first heating time interval will take approximately
five minutes, (this depends on the set temperature, and the environment temperature). After
reaching the set temperature, the heating indicator light will switch “off” automatically.
d. The machine can be operated manually or automatically (and this can be set on the control
panel). On MANU (manual) mode, the operator needs to press the MANUAL button to
perform the sealing function. During AUTO mode, the container photo sensor will be
triggered to perform the sealing function.
e. During the sealing process, the upper mould is pushed down against the lower mould using a
constant air pressure to obtain a fast and even sealing . When the sealing film is heat sealed
onto the container, a cutter blade concealed in the upper mould will cut the sealing film to its
predefined shape.
f. The lower mould will eject automatically after the sealing and cutting function; ready for the
next cycle.
g. Remove the container after sealing and perform (e).
h. To shutdown the machine, turn off by pressing the Power key, and then disconnect the plug to
the AC power

8. Mould Removal and Replacement
ELECTRICAL HAZARD
Always REMOVE the machine from the power outlet before performing any maintenance or
cleaning works.
BURN HAZARD
• Cleaning and maintenance should be performed by your trained personnel only
• Allow unit to cool at least 90 minutes before normal cleaning
• Always wear hot pad gloves when performing machine cleaning.
6.1 Upper Mould
Sealing and Cutting Function
Standard Upper mould (i.e. without the gas flushing option) performs the sealing and the
cutting function at the same time.
Removing and Exchanging
Mould can be removed for cleaning or exchange by (see images below) :
• Removing the gas flush tube
• Removing the thermocouple and wiring
connection

Updated: 10 October, 2009 Page 12 REF: REI-90-0611
• Removing the black screw
• Holding the bottom part of the upper mould, slowly pull/ slide out
6.2 Lower Mould
Lower Mould Function
The main function of the lower mould is to hold the containers on their position for the sealing
and the cutting function.
Exchanging
Simply remove the black screw from the bottom of the lower mould and pull out the lower
mould.
9. Maintenance and Cleaning
ELECTRICAL HAZARD
Always REMOVE the machine from the power outlet before performing any maintenance or
cleaning works.
BURN HAZARD
• Cleaning and maintenance should be performed by your trained personnel only
• Allow unit to cool at least 90 minutes before normal cleaning

Updated: 10 October, 2009 Page 13 REF: REI-90-0611
• If hot machine must be opened, keep hands away from upper moulds and the printer. USE
HOT PAD GLOVE IF IT IS NECESSARY TO HANDLE THE MOULDS WHILE IT IS
STILL HOT (although not recommended).
9.1 Daily Maintenance
• Wipe with wet cloth the upper and lower moulds with dirt. Always remove residual films
(plastic roll films). DO NOT SCRAPE THE MOULD WITH SHARP OBJECTS. Use
scouring pads like “Scotch Brite” to clean the plate.
• Clean the groove of the lower sealing mould
• Clean the sensor if necessary
9.2 Air Pressure Controller
Regularly check the air pressure controller (once every month).
• Check lubricant oil every month. If less than 50%, refill the lubricant oil (Specification:
Number 68)
