This used CFS Compact 420 is a shrinking machine — sometimes referred to as a thermoforming packaging machine — designed for the vacuum skin and vacuum packaging of a wide range of food products. Suitable applications include virtually all types of meat, fish and seafood, cheese, salads, vegetables, fruit, confectionery and other chilled or ambient foodstuffs. CFS is a well-established manufacturer of food processing and packaging equipment, with a long history of supplying automated lines to the meat, dairy and convenience food industries.
The machine operates as a fully automatic line, forming packs from two separate film webs — an upper and a lower film — both fed continuously through the system. The operator places products into cavities formed from the lower film, after which the machine takes over: the pack is evacuated by the vacuum system, sealed, trimmed, and — optionally — labelled, all without further manual intervention. Tray format changes are carried out by manually exchanging the forming tool, allowing a range of tray types and dimensions to be run on the same line.
The film width is 420 mm, and the machine is configured for soft film processing. Individual tray dimensions are 195 × 115 mm, with a pitch of 2.2 and a feed stroke of 250 mm per cycle. Output capacity is rated at 8 to 10 cycles per minute. The vacuum system is provided by a Busch R5 RA0302 D 5Z1 CUXX pump. Operators can programme cycle step, speed, dwell time, temperature and vacuum level directly through the machine's controls.
The electrical supply is 400 V, 50 Hz, three-phase, with a total installed power of 22 kW. Overall machine dimensions are 6,400 mm in length, 1,300 mm in width and 1,950 mm in height. This unit is offered in used condition and is currently located in Poland.
