Pareto-based approach for comparing and evaluating packaging films for heat sealing applications in packaging machines, 18th Biennial TAPPI European PLACE Conference (22EUR)

Sealing is one of the most important steps in packaging processes, since the sealed seam is the most sensitive zone of a package in terms of quality. For this reason, a major focus in flexible packaging is the sealing process, and among this heat sealing is the most frequently used technology. In detail, applications of heat sealing processes are confronted with four conflicting objectives: Increasing seam quality, reducing dwell time, reducing sealing temperature and increasing process robustness towards varying conditions. Typical problems, such as identification of the optimum process parameters or selection of the most appropriate packaging film, are subject to these conflicting objectives.
