Ross Tray Sealers

  • Virtually eliminates leakers
  • Maximizes shelf life
  • Fullest range of packaging systems in the industry

Ross Tray Sealers produce modified atmosphere packages (MAP) from preformed trays of almost any size or shape. They package fresh, refrigerated, retort or frozen food products at a full range of output rates. Ross MAP systems produce attractive, leak-proof, tamper-evident packages with greater seal integrity and extended shelf life. They are perfect for all types of sausage, meat, poultry, seafood, prepared food and cheese packaging.

Ross tray sealers use a customized tray carrier to perfectly fit each tray. The tray carriers positively position the trays in the MAP sealing station. Positive positioning of the trays leads to incredibly consistent seals and virtually eliminates leakers.

When the tray is in the sealing station the package evacuation and gas flushing are done using pressure. This ensures the same level of evacuation and gas in each tray on every cycle. Trays packaged this way consistently have maximum shelf life.

Ross manufactures six different models of tray sealer that all use the same MAP technology. These six models have output rates from 5 to 150 trays per minute. This range allows you to choose the perfect balance of production output to capital investment for your business. You do not have to sacrifice quality, shelf life, or package security.

Ross Inpack IN50 Inline Tray Sealer
The high-speed Ross Inpack IN50 Inline Tray Sealer produces modified atmosphere packages (MAP) from preformed trays of almost any size or shape and can package fresh, refrigerated or frozen food products.

The IN50 greatly reduces downtime. Tooling changeovers between tray sizes are fast and easy and can be accomplished tool-free in under ten minutes. The IN50 features a patent pending upper tool that is comprised of multiple individual "seal/cut" modules. These individual modules are much easier to handle as compared to removing an entire tool set. They can be swapped out in minutes, significantly increasing uptime and production output.

The IN50 greatly reduces MAP gas consumption by up to 70%. Unlike conventional die box designs that fill the entire bottom tool with gas, the IN50 supplies gas to just the package. The gas savings alone will provide a speedy ROI.

The IN50 is easy to operate. Its full-color HMI touch screen uses icon-driven menus for easy navigation, stores hundreds of recipes, and supports multiple languages. It also provides the user with operator and maintenance tutorial videos.

The high-speed IN50 utilizes a servo-controlled lift station and tray transport system to operate at up to 15 cycles per minute. It can run up to 8 lanes of product. Its sanitary design and stainless steel construction provide the highest levels of hygiene and food safety.
