Ossid, a product brand of ProMach, introduces the FP-360 – the first in a new generation of thermoforming machines for cost effectively packaging beef, chicken, pork, and seafood in a host of formats, including: Vacuum skin pack and vacuum, modified atmosphere and ambient, microwaveable and oven safe, re-closable, foil-foil, and more. The machines in the FP line, beginning with the FP-360, enable packagers to exploit sales opportunities in new markets, offer responsiveness to retailer requests for new package types, and/or replace under-performing thermoformers with improved technology.

The robust IP 65 washdown-rated stainless steel frame provides a stable packaging platform for precise operation over years of service. FP series machines are easy to operate and fast to changeover – less than 30 minutes. The inline FP-360 thermoformer operates at between four and eight cycles per minute, depending on the type of film and package. These machines include production reporting capabilities. Secure remote diagnostics for quick, effective Ossid technical support is available. Ossid offers one point of contact for sales and seamless integration of printers, labelers, product feeders/loaders, fillers, and pre-heat stations. Ossid also provides package development and prototyping services, which helps bring products to market faster.

“Ossid is the one supplier today that delivers a solution for every format of protein packaging,” said Jason Angel, Vice President of Sales and Marketing, Ossid. “This means that packagers gain the advantages of a single source supplier for equipment, technical support, and factory authorized aftermarket parts. In terms of long years of trouble-free service and overall price performance, the new FP-360 is a platform worthy of evaluation.” For more information on the new FP-360 and other FP solutions, call 800-334-8369 and visit www.Ossid.com.
