SIG Carousel System
Designed for big formats and quick change-over
Unique pouch handling system consisting in grippers holds them throughout the process. The grippers can be adjusted to a new format size in a matter of minutes by means of the HMI touch screen.
Both the pouch positioner and the grippers that hold the pouches during filling and sealing were designed and registered by SIG.
The SIG Carousel System fills and seals pouches within a range of 100 x 150 mm. and 300 x 400 mm. It can reach an outpout of 120 pouches per minute and can fill up to 6 liters of product.
Same clamps holding the pouch throughout the process.

SIG Carousel System Technology.
Full Servo motion, Carousel, Mirror machine
Full servo motion
This smart servo-control system allows independent operation between the different stations, offers great reliability and little maintenance.
Carousel
The carousel transport system patented by Bossar is the ideal technical solution for heavy and large volume packaging formats. It consists of mechanical grippers assembled on a linear carrousel with intermittent motion that hold the pouches, keeping its position during the complete filling and sealing process.
Retort
Sterilization of premade pouches and film from reel by means of an autoclave. Retort machines are suitable to fill low-acidity food like pet food, fish, liquid soups, sauces, gravies, precooked meals, vegetables, pâté.
Clean & ultraclean
Clean and Ultraclean levels achieved are achieved during packaging by means of laminar flow, U.V. lamps and/or hydrogen peroxide. These applications are required to fill fruit juice, compote, yogurt and dairy products.
Mirror machine
Placing one standard machine in front of the other operating the opposite direction makes operating easier and reduces staff required to control them.
Pre-made pouches
Option to fill the different products in pre-made pouches supplied from a pouch feeder with great capacity.
SIG Carousel System Filling options.
Hot Fill, Ambient Fill, Ultra Clean/ESL, Aseptic
Hot Fill
Heat processed products.
Ambient Fill
Non-heat processed products.
Ultra Clean / ESL
Products intended for cold-chain distribution.
SIG Carousel System Sealing options.
Heat seal, Ultra Sonic, Induction
Heat Seal
- Based on electric resistance.
- Easy engineering, simple maintenance.
Ultra Sonic
- Based on ultra-sound frequency.
- Hermetic seals regardless of seal area contamination.
Induction Seal
- Based on electromagnetic resistance.
- Seal and cool at the same step, enabling packaging for a circular economy.

Horizontal Form Fill Seal machines are packaging machines in which filling, and sealing of a package take place on the same machine. Filling occurs through the open-top part of the pouch.
