PackworldUSA, a leading manufacturer of precision heat sealing equipment, is excited to exhibit at MD&M West 2026 in Anaheim, CA, from February 3-5. Attendees can visit PackworldUSA at booth 3426 to see live sealing demonstrations and discuss ways to optimize heat sealing processes with the company’s technical team.
A key in-booth highlight will be the new PW4214, a remote head impulse heat sealer engineered for space-constrained, controlled environments such as laminar flow hoods. Fully validatable and calibratable, it tightly controls and monitors temperature, time, and pressure, which can be verified via NIST traceable devices through integral machine ports. Powered by TOSS Technology with Variable Resistance Control, the PW4214 uses the heating element as its own sensing device to eliminate inconsistencies associated with thermocouple controls and deliver precise, repeatable seals for validated applications. Its compact sealing head has a reduced footprint and a single quick-connect for electrical and pneumatic utilities, simplifying hood installation and allowing rapid removal for cleaning when processing sensitive materials.
PackworldUSA will also feature the PW3400 Series Heat Sealer, a versatile, precision-driven system for medical device, pharmaceutical, and other critical packaging applications. Constructed from cleanroom-friendly stainless steel and anodized aluminum, the 3400 Series features a fanless, wipe-down-ready design that supports stringent sterility and cleanliness requirements. An intuitive touchscreen interface streamlines programming and monitoring of time, temperature, and pressure, while real-time graphical displays, alarms, password protection, and a resettable seal counter help maintain validated seals and secure control over machine settings.
Recent PW3400 enhancements emphasize usability and fast adaptation, including quick detachable jaw bar electrical connections that let operators swap identical rebuilt jaw bars to minimize downtime or change length and construction for new applications, supported by added through holes on vacuum machines for faster removal and replacement. The PW3400 platform now offers both multi-point and single-point temperature calibration to meet tighter process windows. An eight-point calibration mode optimizes accuracy across the full operating range, while a single-point mode delivers tighter tolerance at one critical temperature when maximum precision is required at a specific setpoint.
Additionally, Trevor Stout will teach a class on pouch converting and pouch heat sealing through the Institute of Packaging Professionals’ Medical Device Packaging Technical Committee. The session will provide practical guidance on designing and sealing medical pouches for validated performance.
