Q&A How to make the sealing line of the impulse sealer even and beautiful?   Q: Users often want to know why the sealing line is crooked and thin, rather than the flat and complete 2mm or 5mm wide sealing line tested by the manufacturer. A: The key point is cooling time. For impulse sealers, whether hand type or foot-operated type, both the sealing and cooling time are manually controlled. In order to shorten the package time, many users will ignore the cooling time directly. As soon as the heating time is up and the heating light goes off, they release the handle or foot pedal. This will result in uneven sealing lines.   Q: How long does the cooling time need to be? A: It is recommended to refer to the sealing time. If the heating time is longer, the cooling time should be increased accordingly, but not necessarily in a proportional manner. It still needs to be tested. Based on the experience, if using regular bags and the sealing time is not set for a long time, it is recommended that customers press for an additional 1 second after the heating light goes off (the editor usually counts to 3 in their mind) before releasing the handle or foot pedal.   Q: If I don't care about the appearance of the sealing line, can I ignore the cooling time? A: It is still recommended to have some cooling time. A complete sealing line is not only visually appealing to customers, but the most important, it ensures the bag is securely sealed. The impulse sealer uses heat to stick the bag mouth and seal it tightly, and then cools the sealing line by pressing the bag. This is how the sealing line can be both firm and smooth. Without cooling time to cool the sealing line, the sealing line of the bag mouth may be thin and easily melt and break, which could lead to bag rupture and increase the workload instead.

Why can’t the vacuum effect be maintained after using the vacuum sealer? The following are possible reasons. Users can check by themselves first.   1. The wrong material of packing bags: the material of plastic bags is PE, PP which can’t maintain the vacuum effect. The air will enter into the bags after the vacuum sealer finishing working. It is recommended to choose Nylon bags, Aluminum foil bags which can maintain the vacuum effect for a long time.   2. The sealing line is not sealed well: please check whether the sealing line is complete or not. If the sealing line is not closed, the air will run into the bags. (1) If the bag is too thick, and the vacuum sealer wasn't set for enough sealing time, the heat wasn't enough to seal the bag. If the vacuum sealer can adjust the sealing time, users can add more seconds to test whether the sealing is firm. If the vacuum sealer can't adjust the sealing time, users may need to replace the thinner bag or buy another vacuum sealer with setting sealing time function.     (2) There have also been cases where the bottom seal of the original bag was not sealed properly. In this case, seal the bottom sealing line again before vacuuming.   3.     Vacuum bag styles are not suitable for vacuum sealers: non-nozzle vacuum sealers can't be used for vacuum flat bags. Therefore, if you buy a non-nozzle vacuum sealer, you must pay attention to the style of the bag you use. This vacuum sealer is a must-to-use vacuum embossed bag or Nylon gusset vacuum bag. It is recommended that when purchasing a vacuum sealing machine or vacuum bag, it is more appropriate to confirm with the supplier first.     4.     The vacuum bag is broken: (1) If the package article has acute angles, be careful not to cut the vacuum bag when putting it into the vacuum bag. (2) Vacuum sealer in the process of pumping, when the bag is shrunk to the package, it may be punctured by the packaging.

Pro Tips: How to Vacuum Seal Liquids and Moist Foods Without a Mess (Vacuum Sealing, Sealer Tips)   One of the biggest frustrations for new users is trying to vacuum seal liquids and moist foods. When the air is pulled out, the liquid can be drawn right up into the machine, which can ruin the seal, damage the internal pump, and make a huge mess.                                              Follow these pro tips to seal liquids, soups, sauces, and high-moisture items like marinated meats successfully:   The Freezer Trick (The Gold Standard): For any liquid (soups, sauces, stocks) or high-moisture food (marinated chicken), pre-freeze it for 1 to 2 hours until it is slushy or mostly solid. Once partially frozen, the liquid is too dense to be sucked up during the vacuum process, ensuring a clean, perfect seal.   The "Moist" Setting: Many modern vacuum sealers have a "moist" or "liquid" setting. This function typically pulls a weaker or slower vacuum and then seals sooner, giving the liquid less time to migrate to the sealing bar.   Leave Plenty of Headroom: Always leave more space than usual between the food and the top of the bag—at least 3 to 4 inches. This acts as a buffer zone.   Use a Paper Towel Buffer: For wet-marinated meats, you can loosely place a small, folded piece of paper towel just inside the top of the bag, right before the sealing area. It acts as a moisture trap to catch any escaping liquid before it hits the sealing strip.   Double Seal: For extra protection on liquids destined for the freezer, press the seal button a second time right after the first seal is complete. This creates a redundant double seal just above the first one, adding security against leaks.
