Summary: Remove air from packages to extend shelf life.                        

Vacuum sealers in food processing machinery are used to remove air from packages before sealing them. This process creates a vacuum environment around the food, which is crucial for extending its shelf life and preserving its quality.

Function: Vacuum sealing helps to:

Prevent spoilage: Removing oxygen inhibits the growth of microorganisms that cause food to decay.

Reduce freezer burn:** It minimizes moisture loss and oxidation in frozen foods.

Protect flavor and texture:** It helps retain the original taste and texture of the food.

Mechanism: Vacuum sealers work by:

    * Placing the food in a bag or container.

    * Removing the air with a pump.

    * Heat-sealing the bag or closing the container.

Applications: Vacuum sealing is used for a variety of food products, including:

    * Meat and poultry

    * Fish and seafood

    * Cheese and dairy products

    * Fruits and vegetables
