GoalHigher throughput, minimal downtime

"We've had great success with our Novaseal® machine. It's been extremely durable and reliable through every upgrade — from the original Pulse to Puls2™ and now Packet Welding. We've had very minimal downtime, if any."

— Dennis Joseph, Production Manager, Castle Services

The Need for Control and Quality

For the first 15 years, Castle Services outsourced screen production — which limited their control over seam quality and consistency.
Moving production in-house required a sealing platform that matched the brand standards their customers expected, without compromise on seam appearance.
Seam aesthetics are critical in the motorized shutter market. Customers prefer seams they cannot see. Every seam is a visible quality statement.

Packet Welding Solution

Immediate efficiency gains and higher daily output from day one of the Packet Welding upgrade.
Stronger, more consistent, and more visually appealing seams — meeting the aesthetic standards that Castle Services' customers require.
One machine, upgraded twice: Original Pulse → Puls2™ → Packet Welding. No replacement required — the same machine frame carries the latest sealing capability.
