摘要:
It is described a food package assembly comprising a first container hosting at least one first food product, a second container hosting at least one second food product, and a connecting device configured for forming a communication channel between the first container and the second container. Use of the packaging assembly is also disclosed together with a process for making the packaging assembly.
摘要:
A process and apparatus (1) for packaging a product (P) arranged on a tray (4) is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a packaging assembly (8) configured for tightly fixing one or more film sheets to one or more trays. The packaging assembly includes a lower tool (22) defining a prefixed number of seats (23) for receiving the trays and an upper tool (21) facing the lower tool and cooperating with the upper tool to define a packaging chamber (24). The packaging assembly (8) is configured to operate at least in a first operating condition, where said packaging chamber (24) is open, and in a second operating condition, where said packaging chamber (24) is hermetically closed. First injection apertures (90) are positioned in corner regions of the seat and are configured to inject streams of gas in a direction substantially parallel to and above the flange (4c) of a tray (4) positioned in said seat. The process includes the step of activating injection of a plurality of streams of gas through said first apertures (90) in order to form a controlled atmosphere inside the tray before closing the tray with the film.

摘要:
A leak detection system, process, and package are disclosed. The vacuum package comprises a package wall and a radio frequency circuit configured for emitting a status signal, the status signal changing based on whether the package is in a first sealed condition or in a second non-sealed condition, the radio frequency circuit comprising at least one deformable portion. At least a portion of the package wall is configured to act upon the deformable portion and to move the deformable portion from a first configuration, corresponding to the package being in said first sealed condition, to a second configuration, corresponding to the package being in said second non-sealed condition. The leak detection system comprises a vacuum package and a reader configured for emitting a radio frequency activation signal and for receiving a status signal from the package. The process comprises relatively arranging a package and an interrogation zone of a reader; controlling the reader to emit a radio frequency activation signal configured to supply energy to a radio frequency circuit comprised in/on the package; controlling the reader to receive a status signal from the radio frequency circuit; comparing the status signal to an expected signal; and generating a package state signal indicative of the integrity of the package based on the comparison.
摘要:
A process for packaging a product arranged on a support comprising unrolling a film, moving the film to a packaging assembly defining at its inside a packaging chamber, progressively moving a number of supports inside the packaging chamber of the packaging assembly, closing the packaging chamber with the film sheets held above the respective support, optionally causing one or both of: a gas withdrawal from the hermetically closed packaging chamber and gas injection of a gas mixture of controlled composition, heat sealing the film to said support, wherein the heat sealing uses one or more heaters having heating surfaces which are heated for discrete and short time periods only. An apparatus for performing the above process is also disclosed.
摘要:
A tray lidded package comprising a tray with two peripheral flanges separated by a groove, and at least one heat-shrinkable film lid sealed onto at least one of said flanges is described. The tray is useful as a support for packaging products, particularly food products.
摘要:
A process for the manufacture of a fresh meat package, by, optionally, placing the meat product (14) on a support member (6) and closing the package in a packagingstation (4) under a high oxygen-content atmosphere by means of a composite film (3), comprising an inner, food-contact, oxygen-permeable film (15) and an outer oxygen-impermeable film (16), so as to bind a confined volume (19) within the package containing at least an amount of oxygen effective to inhibit discoloration of the packaged meat product. The process comprises the steps of a. providing from at least a supply roll (1) an inner food-contact oxygen-permeable film (15) and an outer oxygen-impermeable film (16); b. unwinding the films (15, 16) and directing the films into the packagingstation (4); c. inspecting with regard to a predetermined range of wavelengths at least one of the films (15,16) by at least one light beam in order to detect whether the outer oxygen-impermeable film (16) is positioned externally tothe inner, food- contact, oxygen-permeable film (15) in the packagingstation (4).
摘要:
The present invention relates to a gas barrier and liquid absorbent container (1) for use in the modified atmosphere packaging of food products which tend to release liquids. The container of the invention comprises a base and upwardly extending side walls terminating in a continuous flange horizontally projecting from the side walls, and comprising an inner part of a liquid pervious material (20), and an outer part of a liquid and gas barrier material (10), said inner and outer parts being joined together at the side walls and being spaced apart from each other at the base to define an interspace (30). A circumferentially extending continuous portion (11) of the surface of the liquid and gas barrier material is exposed to provide an area for a gas barrier closing lid to be sealed. The invention further relates to a method of manufacture of said container, to its use in the packaging of food products under a modified atmosphere and to the gas-tight packages thus obtained.
