Thermoforming Vacuum Packaging Machine - How It Works | CEHUMA

 


thermoforming vacuum packaging machine

A thermoforming vacuum packaging machine is one of the most advanced and reliable solutions available for modern food packaging operations. It works by forming a bottom cup or tray from flexible or rigid plastic film — placing the food product inside — then sealing the pack under vacuum conditions to create a fully airtight and hygienic package ready for retail or industrial distribution.

How It Works

The automatic thermoforming packaging machine operates through a chain driven gripper system that moves plastic film forward in precise cycles. The forming station heats and shapes the bottom film into a cup or tray. The product is then placed inside — either manually or automatically — before the sealing station applies vacuum and seals the top film airtight. The cutting station then punches out finished packs and discharges them for end of line processing.

Modern vacuum thermoforming machines for food like the CEHUMA CM Series run at 5–12 cycles per minute — processing both flexible PA/PE high barrier films and rigid PET/PP tray films up to 600mm web width. This makes them suitable for meat, dairy, seafood, poultry, bakery, dried fruits and medical kit packaging applications.

Why Food Manufacturers Choose Thermoforming Vacuum Packaging

A horizontal thermoforming vacuum packaging machine eliminates oxygen from each pack — preventing bacterial growth, oxidation and moisture loss. This significantly extends food shelf life, reduces food waste and ensures complete food safety thermoforming packaging machine compliance for retail supermarket and global export markets.

CEHUMA delivers EC certified, HACCP compliant industrial thermoforming vacuum packaging machines from Istanbul, Turkey to food processors worldwide.

Fresh Meat Packaging Machine — How to Preserve Quality and Extend Shelf Life

Image
  Fresh meat is one of the most perishable food products in the entire food supply chain. Without the right packaging solution, fresh red meat deteriorates rapidly — losing its natural color, texture and consumer appeal within hours of processing. This is exactly why choosing the right  fresh meat packaging machine  is one of the most critical decisions any meat processor can make. Why Fresh Meat Packaging Matters Fresh meat deterioration is driven by three primary biological factors — bacterial growth, lipid oxidation and enzymatic breakdown of muscle proteins. Each of these factors begins the moment fresh meat is cut and exposed to air. A reliable  vacuum MAP fresh meat packaging machine  eliminates oxygen from each pack — preventing all three deterioration processes simultaneously and significantly extending fresh meat shelf life at retail and industrial distribution level. Losing or gaining moisture also directly impacts the surface appearance and weight of ...

Why a Thermoforming Vacuum Packaging Machine Is the Smartest Investment for Your Food Line

Image
  In today’s competitive food industry, keeping products fresh, safe, and visually appealing on the shelf isn’t optional — it’s survival. A  thermoforming vacuum packaging machine  is one of the most effective technologies available to achieve all three at once, and  Cehuma  has built its reputation on delivering exactly that. Unlike traditional packaging methods, thermoforming vacuum packaging works by forming a custom-shaped cavity in plastic film, placing the product inside, and then evacuating all air before sealing. The result? A tight, hygienic, tamper-evident pack that dramatically slows spoilage and bacterial growth — without preservatives. Cehuma’s  CM Series  thermoforming vacuum packaging machines are engineered for the demanding environments of meat, poultry, dairy, seafood, bakery, and medical kit production. With a corrosion-resistant gripper chain system, full stainless steel construction, and speeds of up to 12 cycles per minute, the CM...
