Speaking the Language: Track and Row Rollstock Terminology

Knowing basic track vs row rollstock terminology can help ensure you are ordering exactly what you need! Understanding track and row can cut down on any confusion and slowdowns. Precision when ordering expensive die tooling is essential in maximizing your efficiency.

What are track and row when it comes to rollstock packaging? Track and row is simply how the die is divided up into pockets.

Track and Row Diagram

If you are facing the unit of operation, track will be the pockets from right to left. Row, on the other hand, is the pocket from the operator side to the opposing side of the unit. See image above.

Track and row configuration dictates the format of the pockets in your forming web. Each rollstock thermoformer has its limitations when it comes to dimensions. This means knowing the most efficient pocket for your process is absolutely vital. Not only are you able to manipulate the configuration of your pockets, you are able to adjust depth. These three components will help you nail down the exact pocket configurations for your most popular products.

Rollstock seal bar types

Rollstock Seal Bar Types

Rollstock Seal Bar Types

Rollstock thermoforming vacuum packaging machines host two different sealing plates within the sealing head of the unit. The two types of seal bars are the total seal plate and the perimeter seal plate.

Rollstock sealing head

Total seal plates offer a comprehensive sealing solution by applying pressure and heat to the entire package, making it a universal option. In contrast, the perimeter seal focuses specifically on the outer borders, which limits its compatibility with certain seal grids.

Under the seal head is where the seal bar is located. Here you can select two different style seal bars for two different applications. See below for a brief overview for each seal type.

Perimeter Seal Bar Plate

Perimeter Plate - Rollstock

Outer perimeter heat sealing is the only option on a perimeter seal. This eliminates the risk of searing and provides an easier-to-open package. For this option, a different seal bar is required for each configuration.

Total Seal Bar Plate

Apply heat to the entire surface of the plate using total seal plates. The lower seal grid will determine the primary seal location. All remaining areas where the top and bottom film touch will receive a secondary seal. This type of seal bar will work with all configurations, but the downside is that the risk of searing fresh products is increased.

We created these simple visuals to help identify and understand both the naming convention and basic functionality of these rollstock major components. Understanding the major components of a thermoformer can help you to operate and maintain your unit appropriately. Maintaining your unit requires proper identification. Simple identification helps in ordering the parts and communicating failures well to encourage proper diagnosis. Let’s get into each station and the major components attached to each station.

Compressed air or vacuum forces the forming film against a hot plate and then draws it into a mold to create formed pockets.

Place products into the open pockets. Larger loading areas provide more time to load and a buffer for operators trying to multi-task.

Rollstock Sealing FIlm

The sealing film (VacSeal) is the top film that is introduced to close off the bottom film while simultaneously removing up to 99.8% of the air out of the pouch for longer shelf life.

Valves open allowing a vacuum pump to draw air out of the cavities. Introduced gas mixture comes next, if applicable. Heat seal the top film to the bottom, creating an air-tight package in the final stages.

Rollstock Sealing Station Head

Under the seal head is where the seal bar is located. Here you can select two different style seal bars for two different applications.

Rollstock Rotary Crosscut

Divide film into individual packages using crosscut (left) and rotary knives (right).

Trim Scrap Removal

The rotary knives trim off the outer edges of the film. 2 types of trim scrap removal are commonly used: vacuum or rewind removal. Collect the film trim using the vacuum or rewinding system.

What is a Rollstock Machine?

What is a Rollstock Machine?

“…a horizontally configured packaging machine.”

A very common question for us to receive is: “What is a Rollstock Machine?”

Today, we will answer that question simply!

After inserting the product, the operator heat seals a non-formed top layer of film onto the pockets, creating an airtight package. Upon exiting the seal region, the operator can use crosscut and rotary knives to trim and refine the packaging, ensuring a clean and professional look.

Additionally, these rollstock thermoformers, also known as HFFS (Horizontal Form Fill Seal) units, significantly improve efficiency and result in visually appealing packaging. By using a rollstock machine, businesses streamline their packaging process, enhance productivity, and achieve captivating product presentations.
