Use over horizontal vacuum formers
Hinds-Bock manufactures a family of fillers/depositors for use over horizontal vacuum formers. They are ideal for accurate, clean filling of liquid or moist products ranging from water, thin brine or marinades to candy or cheese. Large port openings enable the gentle passage of particulates, such as fruit slices. They are available in both standard and custom machines and in sizes to match package configuration. Optional features include diving or traveling spouts for product distribution, hopper agitation, heated or cooled machines and a large family of positive shut-off spouts. Pressure-fed fillers for viscous products that do not self level are available.

Adjustable top and bottom sealer
Marq's High-Performance Adjustable Top and Bottom Sealer uses hot-melt glue to seal the cases, provides 7 ft. of compression (4 ft. within the machine and 3 ft. of standing compression), and the controls are housed on a slim pedestal, rather than directly attached to the machine. Marq accommodates customer-specific components, such as the stack beacon with the customer's preferred colors, electrical and pneumatic lockout capabilities, an alpha-numeric character program for PLC input and output, and a pressure switch that automatically shuts off if the air pressure is too low to properly run a case. Five photo-eyes help to increase the accuracy of each box that is sealed, and the PLC controller is installed on-site by the customer. Clear Lexan guarding allows the operator to see inside the machine while providing a safety wall between the operator and the machine's working parts. Extended guarding around the powered discharge roller prevents the operator from getting too close to the machine's moving parts. The white powder-coated finish gives this case sealer a fresh, clean appearance.
