Each month we are publishing a mini article describing features unique to Novaseal heat sealers. What makes a good heat sealer is the quality of the seal, and as a machine designer and builder, we continue to improve the art of designing and building a first class heat sealing machine so that our seals are the absolute best seals available.

Often we receive calls for heat sealers and the caller assumes all heat sealers are the same. That’s simply not true. For example, Chinese (and most Asian) manufactured heat sealers are usually based on technologies introduced 20-30 years ago. In order to attain first position in the heat sealing industry, we’ve been continuously improving our machines. Improvements can affect method or maintenance improvements as well as to heat seal materials that no other method is able to.  It has become our obsession to make the best heat sealer for the most reasonable cost.

Last month we discussed our MultiHead system … 2 heat sealers in one machine. This month its our Rocker System. Rockers provide pneumatic pressure on the Heating Elements to assure best quality seals with the least amount of maintenance.

Recently I spoke with a Windows Professional who purchased a RF machine claiming that he was “tired of the nichrome wire maintenance issues he continuously had with his ASCO heat sealing machine.” And since buying an RF machine in 2011 is almost like going backwards in time or technology, I was perplexed by his decision. However, after telling him that our Rocker System replaces conventional springs with an easy to maintain continuous pressure system that is guaranteed never to fatigue he seemed surprised to learn that such an alternative even existed. I’m sure that after a few months of working with RF, he’ll be back with an interest in upgrading to a more advanced Shade Sealing system.

Since the original Rocker System was developed more than 20 years ago, we have continued to improve our system. Today’s Rocker includes an infinite clutch ratchet system that lets the operator maintain Heating Element life without cutting away expanded sections or without frequent and common replacement of heating elements. Maintenance is easy. Simply, hold and pull, and heating elements are as good as new. Our non-slip connectors provide constant pressure without nichrome wire slippage. The result … perfect seals without wrinkles, voids, hot spots or discoloration.

Our Pulse Sealing technology, as compared to “Impulse Sealing” also cuts down heating element replacement frequency. With proper Rocker maintenance, many of our customers have reduced heating element replacement to once a year or better. So, as we like to say, when your decision is to buy US-manufactured Novaseal, you don’t get ordinary, you get extraordinary.
