Precise lid placement and tight seals
Our punching and sealing technologies guarantee precise sealing for powders, liquids, or solids, meeting any hygiene standards. We ensure perfect seals, tailored to your packaging needs, with continuous monitoring for reliable solutions. Your product's quality depends on our packaging precision.
Depending on your specific needs, our machines come with modules for heat sealing, ultrasonic sealing or heat pulse sealing.
Some models are smaller than an office desk

Punching and sealing in a single station
Neat and tightly sealed seams are of course crucial for the storability and integrity of a product. For cost-efficient packaging, material waste must be minimized. To achieve perfect accuracy and efficiency, Rychiger combines processes that are linked. With our unique one-stroke punching & sealing technology, all punching and heat-sealing processes are performed in a single station. This allows for much more precise positioning of the punched foil lid on the capsule and for perfect and neat seams, as the foil does not shift during the sealing process. Rychiger machines are compact and innovative – like your products.
Punching: Inline or offline?
Inline or offline punching? The machine platforms from Rychiger cater for both methods. Depending on the actual requirements, our machines perform the punching strokes directly above the containers to be filled (inline) or away from them (offline). With offline punching, the punching module is installed beside the container sealing line. The punching and sealing assemblies are thus separated from each other, and a handling unit transfers the punched foil lid to the container for sealing.
Perfect solutions for all materials
Are your lids made from plastic or aluminum? Are they pre-punched or supplied from reel? We offer you a punching and sealing technology that optimized for your material. Apart from lids, our units also process inserts such as paper filters. Do you want to minimize foil waste? For lid foils supplied on reels, we unwind the foil at an angle to the machine direction, as this allows us to reduce material consumption by up to 30 percent. Are your containers sealed with pre-punched lids? Then we recommend our fully automated feed systems where vacuum grippers take up the individual foil lids for sealing to the capsules.
Efficient sealing for maximum seal integrity
When choosing a sealing technology, one must take into account the lid material, the sealing contour and the type of seal (permanent or peelable).
Do you want to achieve maximum sealing performance? In this case, we recommend a sealing module with a hybrid drive where the lid is sealed while the capsule is positioned with high precision by the capsule carrier. To achieve a uniform sealing pressure, we use a high-precision servo drive combined with a preloaded air spring instead of conventional pneumatic cylinders. This method compensates differences in material thickness for a consistent high seam quality. In addition, our technology allows for exceptionally high output rates.
Does your product need to be processed under specific ambient conditions? We know all about sealing in vacuum or in shielding gas atmospheres, be it nitrogen, low oxygen or low humidity. For applications in clean rooms or air-conditioned premises where the temperature must be constant, we offer sealing tools equipped with special thermal insulation that minimizes heat dissipation.
