Starview to Exhibit at Pack Expo Las Vegas, September 26-28, 2005.

We are excited about the upcoming PackExpo in Las Vegas. Our exhibit addresses what we view as the growth markets of Food Packaging and Medical packaging.

We will be showing for the first time our Perseus Automatic Inline Food Tray Thermosealing Machine with an automatic in-feed system, automatic sealing station with film advance and scrap rewind and discharge station. The Perseus may be ordered with vacuum and M.A.P. capability or just as a sealing machine. The film may be trimmed as a profile with the tray or square cut overlapping the edges of the tray.

Also new in our display will be the SB1-1012 Entry level Single Station Shuttle Blister Sealing Machine.

Starview’s other featured machines include:

		PHS8A-1418 Fully Automatic 8-station Rotary Hot/Cold Plastic-to-Plastic Clamshell & Blister Sealing Machine. This model features automatic clamshell bottom, insert card and clamshell top feeding. A finished package unloader is standard for the PHS8A. Tooling changeover is quick-change and does not require the use of tools. A complete Plastic-to-Plastic seal can be made without the use of Radio Frequency waves (RF) or sound energy (Sonic) for sealing.

Starview updates Skin Packaging Machines with convenient new features.

We have just completed several exciting updates to our Skin Packaging Machine Series.

We have replaced the outdated High/Low Vacuum with Turbine Speed Control Option with a newer more versatile system. Starview is the first company to offer this new system that gives a higher degree of vacuum control. The new system is better suited to the more complex products and larger format machines involved in producing packages for shipping containment. This new option can also be used to improve the appearance of retail carded skin packages.

This new option is named Three-stage vacuum control system for turbine vacuum machines. It provides precise vacuum control for parts with complex shapes and consists of three PLC timers each linked to an adjustable electronic percentage controller for the vacuum turbine motor(s). Both the time and the percent of full speed may be set for each stage.

A typical set-up might be Stage 1-a short time and high vacuum speed to evacuate air from under the film quickly, Stage 2 - a longer time and low vacuum speed to reduce webbing and keep film from rupturing around complex parts and finally Stage 3 - a relatively long time and higher vacuum to pull film tightly to the board and provide cooling. Any stage may be skipped by entering zero time.

Additionally this option includes PLC memory to store up to 99 process recipes. All of the user accessible parameters are able to be stored in the PLC memory for easy recall when running different profile products.

Let Starview assist your customers with machines designed to make the total manufacturing process more effective. Contact one of our sales staff for packaging solutions to help your customers reduce cost and stay competitive.
