Hands-on packaging equipment often brings to mind the image of a slow, tedious process. But at Kahiki Foods, Columbus, OH, that’s hardly the case. In fact, the company runs its new rotary sealer at speeds averaging nearly 40 packs/min, doubling the top output of a sealer it had previously used. Kahiki’s line includes six different 11-oz Asian dinners that were introduced a year ago.
When Kahiki Foods installed the new sealer in September, it became only the second company (by just a few weeks) to employ the new RHS-6 rotary heat-seal machine from Gralex (Westerville, OH).
