watttron digital sealing head
The sealing head with real-time temperature feedback and partially controllable sealing temperature
Why the Wattron sealing head?
1. precise temperature control
The real-time temperature feedback technology measures and regulates the temperature directly at the sealing surface. This guarantees an even and constant temperature distribution, resulting in perfect seals – every time.
2. partially controllable sealing temperature
Thanks to the innovative option of partially controlling the sealing temperature over the entire sealing seam, you can precisely set the desired peel behaviour. This enables a precise haptic impression and ensures an optimum user experience. You can adjust the temperature at specific points on the seal seam to precisely control the opening behaviour and thus increase the user-friendliness and safety of your packaging.
3. maximum process reliability
The entire sealing process is seamlessly monitored and controlled thanks to the immediate feedback of the temperature data. This minimises the risk of production errors and ensures reliable sealing of your products. The real-time data makes it possible to react immediately to deviations and thus maintain consistently high quality.
4 Efficiency and speed
With heat-up rates of up to 50 K/s and a sealing temperature of 230°C, the Wattron sealing head is ready for use at lightning speed. This shortens your production times and increases efficiency. Higher temperatures are also possible on request to meet specific requirements. This means less waiting time and higher production speed, resulting in a significant increase in your productivity.
5. flexibility in application
The flexible arrangement of the heating circuits enables adaptation to complex packaging geometries and irregular shapes. Whether round, square or special packaging – we adapt the Wattron sealing head to your needs. This flexibility allows you to realise a variety of packaging designs and thus expand your product range.
6. Sustainability and resource efficiency
Precise temperature control optimises energy consumption. This contributes to sustainable production and reduces your operating costs. Less waste, more efficiency – good for the environment and your budget. Targeted heating reduces energy consumption and minimises material wear, leading to more sustainable production overall.
7. easy integration and compatibility
The Wattron sealing head can be integrated into existing production lines. The control and regulation hardware can either be integrated or provided as a separate module. It is integrated into your machine control system via standard fieldbus protocols such as EtherCAT and Ethernet/IP. This means that you do not have to make any extensive adjustments to your existing infrastructure, which makes implementation quick and cost-effective.

Application examples:
Food industry
The Wattron sealing head can be used to precisely seal yoghurt pots to extend shelf life and preserve flavour. The partially controllable sealing temperature makes it possible to precisely control the opening resistance of the packaging, resulting in a consistent and pleasant user experience.
Pharmaceutical industry
Sealing blister packs for tablets requires the highest standards of hygiene and product safety. The Wattron sealing head ensures sterile sealing through precise temperature control, minimising the risk of contamination and ensuring product integrity.
Cosmetics industry
Sensitive products such as creams and lotions need to be protected from external influences. The Wattron sealing head ensures that cream jars are sealed tightly, maintaining product freshness. The ability to partially control the sealing temperature makes it possible to design the opening behaviour in such a way that the customer has a high-quality and consistent experience.
Chemical industry
When sealing containers with detergents or other chemical substances, safety is of paramount importance. The Wattron sealing head provides a reliable seal that prevents substances from leaking. The precise control of the sealing temperature ensures that the packaging remains tight even under extreme conditions.
