  2. Induction sealing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_sealing

    Induction sealing is the process of bonding thermoplastic materials by induction heating. This involves controlled heating an electrically conducting object (usually aluminum foil) by electromagnetic induction, through heat generated in the object by eddy currents. Induction sealing is used in many types of manufacturing.

  3. Thermal-transfer printing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal-transfer_printing

    As the paper and ribbon travel in unison beneath the thermal print head, the wax-based ink from the transfer ribbon melts onto the paper. When cooled, the wax is permanently adhered to the paper. This type of thermal printer uses a like-sized panel of ribbon for each page to be printed, regardless of the contents of the page.

  4. Thermal printing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_printing

    Thermal printing (or direct thermal printing) is a digital printing process which produces a printed image by passing paper with a thermochromic coating, commonly known as thermal paper, over a print head consisting of tiny electrically heated elements. The coating turns black in the areas where it is heated, producing an image.

  5. Heat sealer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_sealer

    Heat sealer used to prepare plastic bag of lettuce for shelf life testing Continuous band heat sealer. A heat sealer is a machine used to seal products, packaging, and other thermoplastic materials using heat. This can be with uniform thermoplastic monolayers or with materials having several layers, at least one being thermoplastic. Heat ...

  6. Vacuum packing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_packing

    External vacuum sealers involve a bag being attached to the vacuum-sealing machine externally. The machine will remove the air and seal the bag, which is all done outside the machine. A heat sealer is often used to seal the pack. Typically these units use a dry piston vacuum pump which is often considered a "maintenance-free" pump.

  7. Thermal paper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_paper

    A receipt printed on thermal paper. A heat source near the paper will color the paper. Paper roll for thermal fax machine. Thermal paper (often supplied in roll form, and sometimes referred to as an audit roll) is a special fine paper that is coated with a material formulated to change color locally when exposed to heat.

  8. Hermetic seal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hermetic_seal

    A hermetic seal is any type of sealing that makes a given object airtight (preventing the passage of air, oxygen, or other gases). The term originally applied to airtight glass containers but, as technology advanced, it applied to a larger category of materials, including metals , rubber , and plastics .

  9. Packaging machinery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packaging_machinery

    For example many packages include heat seals to prepare or seal a package. Heat sealers are needed, even in slow labor-intensive operations. With many industries, the effectiveness of the heat seal is critical to product safety so the heat sealing operation must closely controlled with documented Verification and validation protocols.
