ORVED VM14/90n Vacuum Packing Machine with 520 mm Sealing Bar

This vacuum packing machine extracts air from bags before sealing, helping preserve food by reducing oxidation and spoilage. A pump removes air through a retractable probe, compressing the bag around the contents. The sealing bar then fuses the plastic layers, forming an airtight seal that prolongs freshness and guards against freezer damage.

The VM14/90n requires the user to position the filled bag on its polyethylene shelf. Its patented retractable probe extends into the bag, removing air more effectively than fixed nozzles. This system handles both smooth and channelled bags without adjustments. After air extraction, the 520 mm sealing bar creates a continuous weld, preventing air from re-entering. The process finishes automatically, producing a sealed bag ready for storage or transport.

Constructed from stainless steel, the machine withstands corrosion and frequent use in professional environments. The oil-lubricated pump operates quietly and needs regular maintenance to sustain consistent vacuum levels. Simple controls include a start button and indicator lights showing the machine's status.

With a 1.35 kW power rating, the machine suits standard electrical circuits in commercial kitchens. Its dimensions of 490 mm in width allow placement on worktops without overcrowding. Weighing 37 kg, it can be relocated by two people for cleaning or repositioning. The 220-240 V voltage range accommodates UK and European power supplies without requiring a transformer.

Maintenance involves wiping the sealing bar and shelf after each use to avoid residue accumulation. The retractable probe should be inspected for obstructions and cleaned with a soft cloth. The pump requires periodic oil changes as per the manufacturer's guidelines to ensure reliable performance.

As an external vacuum packing machine, the VM14/90n keeps the bag outside the chamber during operation. This design accommodates larger or irregularly shaped items unsuitable for chamber machines, offering versatility for catering tasks involving whole joints of meat or bulk dry goods.
