Laboratory & Production Heat Sealers

RDM's Laboratory & Production Heat Sealers have set the standard in precision and reliability for over 30 years. All RDM Heat Sealers are manufactured in UK, conform to ASTM F2029, and meet our stringent quality checks.

Laboratory Heat Sealers offer precise control of jaw temperature, pressure and dwell time enabling accurate determination of Heat Sealability. Setting these variables incorrectly in production is a costly business in immediate waste, spoilage and customer returns. The custom-made nature of modern flexible films, foils, coated papers and non wovens makes it vital to regularly check the heat sealing characteristics of every batch.

Medical / Production Heat Sealers provide flexibility and control dependant on your requirements. With a range of basic units through to our industrially designed semi-automated production units, and bespoke designs to meet your special requirements, we offer our experience and expertise to help you achieve better sealing quality.

Tray Heat Sealers enable small scale production of finished packs with a flexible lidding film for trays, blister packs, pots, capsules, pods, vials etc.

Selection Guide - Browse our standard units below or call us to discuss your needs. Choose from three user interface designs, (Touchscreen, Digital or Dial Gauge), and options in sealing bar design (e.g. flat metal to silicon rubber, metal to metal, metal crimp). We also manufacture adaptations for any special requirements.
