Bizerba LeakSecure Inline Leak Inspection

Bizerba is a family-owned company headquartered in Balingen, Germany, operating since 1866. Its range covers slicing, industrial weighing, labeling and inspection systems that prevent defective products from being distributed, and its site cites operations in more than 120 countries with production facilities in China.

LeakSecure is an in-line leak detection system for modified atmosphere packaging trays that use CO2. It applies pressure to each tray and uses CO2 sensors to detect and locate leaks right after sealing. The unit is about 300 mm wide, adjusts to tray height by software and can pair with Bizerba's SealSecure for combined seal and leak inspection.

• CO2 leak detection: pressure applied to each tray with CO2 sensors locating leaks after sealing.
• Compact build: about 300 mm wide for existing lines.
• Automatic height adjustment: software adapts to different tray heights.
• SealSecure pairing: combined seal seam and leak inspection.
• Label verification: optional add-on, with LabelSecure AI-supported label checks in the range.
• Reporting: real-time monitoring and automated reports for process optimization.

Chilled seafood and fish fillet packers can verify every MAP tray before shipment. Poultry and meat processors can detect leaking packs and cut spoilage claims. Ready-meal and bakery producers can check sealed trays inline.

Tests every package in-line instead of destructive off-line sampling, according to the vendor. Non-compliant packs are removed immediately, which reduces waste and rework. Real-time monitoring and automated reporting show where leaks occur most often. A compact footprint and little calibration ease installation on existing lines.

Fresh meat, poultry and seafood in modified atmosphere packs depend on intact seals for shelf life, and retailers push for 100 percent inline checks instead of sampling. Vietnamese exporters of chilled seafood and processed meat face the same shelf-life and claim pressures.
