The SmartSeal Auto is the easiest way to install induction sealing into any equipment. This is an autonomous control induction sealing system requiring only a single start signal to operate. The system also features some of Relco UK latest technology and will monitor every seal made giving a pass/fail signal to confirm process integrity.

In this video you can see a Relco SmartSeal Auto machine that we created for our client Illumina in Singapore. Here is the story behind it:

Our client Christopher and his team at Illumina were using conduction sealing and their cartridges were leaking due to the high forces and higher temperatures needed to make a conduction heat-seal.

+With induction sealing, we can reduce the forces needed to make a good seal by up to a factor of x10 as the heat-transfer happens by electromagnetic induction and the contact is only needed to ensure good conformance between the foil and the cartridge/container.

+We can also use a compliant silicone rubber sealing surface on the sealing head (which remains at ambient temperature) in order to guarantee perfect contact between the sealing foil and the cartridge/container during the sealing process – taking out any surface imperfections or inconsistency.

The leak test showed that the cartridges weren’t reliably sealed using conduction heat sealing and Relco’s induction sealing technology solved this problem.
