CRYOVAC® brand 8600 Series Rotary Vacuum Chamber Systems are the workhorse of food packaging and have set the standard for efficiency and throughput for more than 40 years.

 

Rotary machines are engineered to drive high-volume packaging lines and run over multiple shifts with limited downtime. For processors of mid to large size, rotary vacuum systems bring efficiency and optimal throughput, making them a practical and worthwhile investment. Models vary based on production requirements such as speed, product size, and type of food to be packaged, and all systems are designed to work best with CRYOVAC® brand pre-made shrink bags.

All CRYOVAC® brand Rotary Vacuum Chamber Systems qualify for the SEE™ Advanced Maintenance Program (AMP), a proactive, preventive maintenance plan that makes it easy to budget and schedule regular maintenance on your own terms, so you can avoid costly, lost production hours due to unexpected downtime.

Frequently Asked Questions

A linear vacuum packaging machine, like the CRYOVAC® brand AutoVac 95, offers affordability, scalability, and a small piece of equipment that is easy to move and maintain. Linear systems are great for start-up operations or processors packaging smaller volumes or specialty products. Rotary systems, like the CRYOVAC® brand AutoVac 86 or the 8600 Series are designed for large-scale operations with high production volume and continuous output needs. Rotary vacuum systems are generally more complicated pieces of equipment than linear machines, which is why Sealed Air offer our SEE™ Advanced Maintenance Program on all of our rotary machines.

The SEE™ Advanced Maintenance Program (AMP) is a proactive, preventive maintenance plan designed to increase uptime, enhance performance, and improve efficiency for select equipment models in our protective and food packaging portfolios.

Using SEE™ Smart Link technology, AMP offers a secure, cloud-based platform for processors to monitor real-time production data that is essential for improving process control and operational metrics.

The maintenance program includes a comprehensive service plan that features regularly scheduled equipment audits, reconditioning, and catastrophic parts protection for certain equipment models. With an affordable monthly service fee, AMP helps processors enhance production efficiency, maintain consistent maintenance expenses, reduce machine downtime and production disruptions, and lower energy costs.
