Skin-packing for fish

Better appearance and increased throughput are the chief benefits gained by Golden Valley, MN-based Morey’s Seafood since the installation of an R270 vacuum skin packaging system from Multivac (Kansas City, MO).

The new machine at the firm’s Motley, MN, plant replaces a vacuum skin packaging system that heat-sealed film over a paperboard card, thus capturing the fish piece between the film and the card. Because it was a chamber system, and because labels were applied by hand, throughput was slow. The new system, by comparison, is a horizontal form and seal system that seals trays three-up, nine cycles/min. Vice president of operations Bob Thiede says that represents a 25% improvement over the old machine.
