Abstract: An apparatus for lidding an open container includes a housing, a feed mechanism, and a sealing assembly. The housing is configured to support a roll of a film lidding material. The feed mechanism is configured to communicate a portion of the film lidding material from the housing toward a dispense location. The sealing assembly is attached to the housing and configured to present the film lidding material for interaction with an open end of a container disposed underneath and proximate thereto. The sealing assembly is movable relative to the housing between a first position vertically above the open end of the container and a second position suitable for establishing contact between the film lidding material and the open end and enabling sealing of the film lidding material around the open end. The sealing assembly is configured for substantially vertical translation between the first position and the second position.

Abstract: System, assemblies, and methods for heat shrink sealing open-topped containers wherein the system includes a two-part housing or enclosure wherein a majority of a bulk roll of film material is accessible when the cover is open. The system preferably includes a movable feed roll to improve the efficiency associated with reloading operations. In a preferred aspect, the system includes a movable sealing unit that accommodates use of the lidding system with open ended containers having various sizes and shapes. In a more preferred aspect, the system includes an indicia generating device operable to label sealed containers and a knife that generates a perforation in the film during sealing operations.

Abstract: System for heat shrink sealing open-topped containers wherein the system includes a housing or enclosure wherein a majority of a bulk roll of film material is accessible when the cover is open. The system preferably includes two opposing rollers that are configured to engage the film and cause it to move to a dispensing position. In a preferred aspect, the system includes a movable sealing unit that accommodates use of the lidding system with open ended containers having various sizes and shapes. In a more preferred aspect, the system includes an indicia generating device operable to label sealed containers and a knife that generates a perforation in the film during sealing operations.
