Today Plexpack Corp. announced multiple software and hardware enhancements to their popular Emplex MPS Series Bag Sealers.
Emplex MPS sealers provide fast, precise, strong hermetic seals on nearly any heat sealable soft, high density, ecological, or specialty film. MPS sealers are available in stand alone or custom configurations for a wide range of specialty and high-speed applications.
What this Means for MPS Owners and Buyers
New software features offer customers increased control of sealing parameters and settings enhanced operations data, and more customizable user preferences. All MPS models include an easy to use touchscreen industrial PC that simplifies setup and operation, streamlines maintenance, and improves data management. Enhancements include:
- Product counter that counts the number of bags going through the machine in real time
- Data on average packaging rate
- Meter to track total machine running hours
- French and Spanish language configurations
- New touch and single point calibration capabilities for sealing processes
- Simplified management IP addresses, FTP access and user administration such as passwords and names
- Maintenance warnings for additional replacement parts
- Greater flexibility in recipe settings and data logging of sealing processes
- Software cut‐off for runaway heating zones above 230C
- Improved alarms for component issues or failures
Hardware Enhancements
The latest MPS line now includes a sensor that improves data and package feedback during sealing. This feature is standard on all machines. Multiple components, connectors, and switches have been enhanced for easier operation and maintenance.
“These enhancements continue to make our Emplex MPS sealers the industry’s leading bag and pouch packing solutions for seal integrity, consistency, and quality,” says Paul Irvine, the CEO of Plexpack. “We work closely with our customers to provide solutions that fit their unique needs, whether they are hand packing or operating automated packaging lines.”
As Standard, MPS Options Are Still Available
Frequent add-ons and options for MPS sealers include robotic loading, validatable sealing, vacuum and gas flush capabilities, and print-reject systems. MPS systems provide outstanding performance for products of nearly any weight, size, and type, including stand-up, gusseted, pillow, wicketed, and zippered bags.
Several models of our enhanced MPS bag sealers will be featured at Pack Expo International, November 6-9, in the Plexpack booth N-5309.
