How Do Foot Sealers Work?

Our KF-Series Foot impulse sealers fire a short burst of electricity through a
specially designed heating wire to weld thermoplastic materials together. The
length of the seal time will depend on the sealing characteristics of the bag being

sealed. The sealing process is simple: The operator places the bag between the
sealing jaws and presses the footboard to activate the unit. The operator retrieves the sealed bag and
repeats the process. Bags are sealed repeatedly and uniformly.
