Continuous Bag Sealer Layout Illustrations

Continuous-motion bag sealers like Band Sealers, Hot Air Sealers, Pinch Bag Closers and Hot Glue Sealers are typically built and supplied in an orientation that has the bag traveling from the Right to the Left as you face the front of the machine.  This is called a "Right-to-Left" machine.  Most bag sealers also operate in a vertical orientation - that is, the bags stand upright (vertically) while being sealed.  Therefore, most bag sealers are made as "Vertical, Right-to-Left" machines.
