Principle of operation for the vacuum chamber machine MULTIVAC developed its first vacuum chamber machine in 1961. We provided a crucial contribution to the introduction of vacuum packing for the production and marketing of food. Thanks to the particularly simple packaging procedure, pouch packing is still the most flexible and efficient solution for reliable packing of small batches.

The operating principle of chamber machines is explained below in detail, using the example of a tabletop chamber machine. The physical processes in the case of free-standing units and chamber belt machines are fundamentally identical. After the chamber lid has been closed, the vacuum chamber is a hermetically sealed space. A vacuum pump sucks out the available air until the vacuum value, which is defined in the machine control, has been reached. This process removes the atmosphere present in the vacuum chamber, the film pouch and the intermediate spaces within the product. 2 Modified atmosphere...

Recipe for success with pouch packing Pouch packing is explained below in detail using the example of a tabletop chamber machine. In the case of free-standing and chamber belt machines, the loading and unloading of the vacuum chamber in particular can be automated. 1 Filling the film pouches Pre-made film pouches, which can be made from a wide range of materials, serve as the packaging material. When filling the pouches, care should be taken to ensure that the seal area remains clean. 2 1 Inserting the film pouches The seal area of the film pouch is positioned on the sealing bar. In the case...
