Sealer Sales FRM-1120C Horizontal Tilt-Head Band Sealer with Dry Ink Coding, 10mm Seal Width, Right Feed

The Sealer Sales FRM-1120C is a medium-duty horizontal band sealer with a tilting seal head, 10mm seal width, integrated dry-ink coding station, and stainless steel construction. The seal head pivots up to 30 degrees, which lets the unit accommodate liquid-filled bags and irregular product profiles without spilling or hanging the bag against the conveyor. The motorized rubber conveyor runs at up to 394 inches per minute with a 100W motor.

Tilting Seal Head Pivots Up to 30 Degrees

The tilting seal head is the differentiator on this unit. By pivoting the seal head up to 30 degrees, the operator can run filled bags through at an angle that keeps liquid contents settled at the bottom of the bag rather than rushing up into the seal area as the bag enters the conveyor. The same angle helps with irregular pack shapes where a vertical seal would hang the bag or smear the seal line.

10mm Seal Width for Medium-Duty Production

The 10mm seal width is the production standard for medium-duty work - wide enough for a strong bond on most poly films, narrow enough that the seal bars do not need a heavy power draw. Combined with the tilting head, this configuration handles the awkward seal jobs (liquid-filled, irregular profile) that a fixed-head sealer would struggle with.

Constant Direct-Heat Sealing with Cooling and Heating Blocks

The seal bars run on constant direct heat, with a pair each of cooling and heating blocks behind them. The heating block brings the bag film to seal temperature and the cooling block sets the seal before the bag exits the conveyor, so the operator is not pulling a hot, still-relaxing seal that distorts on the way out. The solid-state temperature controller holds the bars at the set point regardless of how many bags have passed through, which is what stops the intermittent-leaker problem that takes most band sealers out of spec by mid-shift.

Motorized Rubber Conveyor with Variable Speed Control

The conveyor is a motorized rubber belt with variable speed control, so the operator can dial in the dwell time for the film gauge and bag profile being run. Knurled pressure rolls above the conveyor adjust independently so a heavy filled bag gets enough pressure on the seal bars while a light empty bag does not get crushed. The whole conveyor is fully adjustable, meaning both height and depth relative to the seal bars, so the operator can center the seal on any bag size from small portion packs up to the maximum bag the configuration handles.

Dry-Ink Coding Station on the Seal Line

An integrated dry-ink coding station prints lot or date code directly onto the seal line as the bag passes through. The typeset is changed by swapping the printing wheel, so the operator can switch codes for a new run without re-tooling. Common configurations use 18PT type for product code, expiration date, or batch lot. The ink reservoir holds enough ink for thousands of cycles before refill, and the print head can be disabled if the operator does not want coding on a particular run.

Stainless Steel Construction with Field-Service Spare Parts

The housing and major chassis components are stainless steel, which holds up to wipe-down cleaning, ambient moisture in food and beverage production rooms, and the day-in day-out vibration of continuous-band operation. The manufacturer ships a spare parts kit with every unit including PC board, PTFE belt, wheel belt, fuses, motor brush, heating element, silica gel ring, silicone pin, and tools. Most operators keep one PTFE belt and one wheel belt in a drawer next to the sealer because those are the wear items that turn over fastest.

Emergency Stop and Operator Safety

An emergency stop button is wired into the front panel and shuts down the conveyor and seal bars in one push. The seal bars are guarded from accidental contact at the entry and exit, and the conveyor has thermal overload protection so a jammed bag does not damage the motor. These are baseline safety features for continuous-band production but worth noting because they are what makes the unit safe to leave running with a single operator at the bench.
