The flowpack infeed is a product designed by Burg for the controlled and fruit-friendly infeed and formation of fruit groups. After grouping, the fruit batches are placed on the supply belt of a flowpack machine or placed in small trays. The system can run at very high speeds; despite the high speed, the product is still handled in a fruit-friendly manner. Depending on the application, various options are available to suit your needs, such as automatic tray denesting.

Form-fill-seal machines hold strong reputations in food packaging for reliability and consistent output. Buyers typically prioritise machines with clear maintenance histories and verified production specifications. Key strengths include versatility across film types and product formats, alongside relatively straightforward operation. When purchasing used units, inspectors should examine seal quality consistency, film tracking accuracy, and the condition of heating elements. Machines from established manufacturers generally command buyer confidence. Downtime for repairs is a common concern, so availability of spare parts and technical support merits careful consideration before acquisition.
