How to Operate
-
Power On
Plug in the FR-400 and turn on the main switch. Wait for the heating element to reach desired temperature. -
Set Temperature & Speed
Choose appropriate heat settings depending on film type (typically 160–250°C) and desired speed. -
Feed Pouch Horizontally
Place filled pouch mouth on the conveyor; the machine grips and pulls it toward the sealing jaws. -
Sealing in Progress
The pouch passes through the heated bands and is sealed shut. Cooling fan assists in setting the seal. -
Collect Sealed Product
Finished pouches come out perfectly sealed—ready for dispatch, storage, or retail shelf.
Common Troubleshooting
| Issue | Possible Cause | Solution |
