PerfoTec
The laser perforation system that extends freshness.
The PerfoTec laser perforation system extends the freshness of fruits, vegetables, and flowers by optimizing the permeability of the packaging. In fresh produce packaging, film permeability is critical for achieving an optimal atmosphere inside the package, thereby maximizing the quality and shelf life of the produce.
The PerfoTec laser perforation system makes consistent and accurate holes in both number and size. These are essential features for proper Active Modified Atmosphere Packaging (AMAP).
The PerfoTec Laser is the only laser in the world that has a patented closed-loop-feedbackcamera-system. The integrated camera inspects each hole, for quality control purposes, and also to be able to ensure the accuracy of the Oxygen Transmission Rate (OTR) of each pack. If necessary the laser is automatically adjusted ‘on the fly’ to balance out any variation in film thickness. The camera is located directly behind the laser perforation head and checks each perforation in the film. The holes are analysed for diameter and shape. If there is an inconsistency in the holes, the packaging machine can be stopped automatically. In this way, the system guarantees that all packages have the same exact required number and size of perforations.
Our story doesn’t stop here. Started from a grower's mission to improve packaging and stop food waste, we are now here. We are happy to tell you all about our solutions.
