Vacuum packaging non-food
For the uncontaminated packaging of various non-food products.
Vacuuming non-food
Are you looking for an efficient vacuum-packing machine for the vacuum-sealing of non-food products? Henkelman has various models on offer that are suitable for vacuum-packing anything from electronics, clothing and sneakers to medical devices, bank notes and nuts and bolts. Which Henkelman suits you best depends on your wishes, product and budget. Whatever you choose, you are guaranteed a dust, dirt and moisture-free packaged end product. Another benefit is that vacuum packing reduces volume, which reduces shipping costs.
Benefits of a Henkelman
Optimal protection
Volume reduction
Process optimization
Vacuum-pack complete sets of components at once so that no checks are required during other production phases.
Fraud prevention
Secures important products and ensures that no one can access the product or document without it being noticed.
Vacuum-packing electronics?
If you want to vacuum-seal electronic products, you need a machine that can operate in an ESD safe environment to prevent electrostatic discharge.

Options & accessories
Create your customized Henkelman
Whatever you want to vacuum-pack, Henkelman offers flexibility with a large selection of different types of machines, capacities, optional extras and upgrade options. For example, with a double chamber machine, the pump can be fitted externally to reduce noise, odour and heat development. Every model can also be upgraded with optional extras and accessories such as:
Electrostatic discharge (ESD)
Special version for packing electronic components that are sensitive to possible static charges that may be generated by the machine and its process.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD)
×ESD is the abbreviation for electrostatic discharge. Static charge can be harmful to electronics because they can jump to products with a lower potential. This is harmful to sensitive electronic components and devices. When packaging electronic components and devices such as wafers, chips, motherboards and printed circuit boards or telephones, it is best to choose a machine that is suitable for an ESD-safe environment. These machines are particularly suitable for packaging electronics in an ESD-safe area. Henkelman offers a special range of machines for vacuum sealing these products.
What happens without a machine with ESD?
Damage to semiconductors
Semiconductors such as transistors microchips are extremely sensitive to ESD. A discharge can destroy the thin layers of insulation and cause irreversible damage to these components. ESD also causes non-visible damage to semiconductors. These microscopic defects can also cause failure of electronic devices and components.
Change in electrical properties
ESD can alter the electrical properties of semiconductors. This can cause unwanted variations in voltage, current, and resistance which can lead to malfunctions in the operation of electronic devices. Electrostatic discharge can also cause malfunctions in complex electronic circuits by altering current paths.
Special Henkelman machines
The Henkelman range includes several machines that are suitable for an ESD-safe environment. These are equipped with a bi-active sealing system. This ensures that the aluminium vacuum bags, in which electronics are usually packaged, are sealed on both sides. The Falcon 52 and Falcon 80 (floor models) as well as the Boxer 42XL (table model) are suitable for ESD-safe areas.
Soft air
This enables the optimal vacuum packing of sharp or sensitive products without damaging the product or vacuum bag.
Soft air
×Why soft air?
When packing sharp or soft products, soft air ensures that the chamber is aerated gradually and in a controlled way after the vacuuming process. The vacuum bag therefore encloses the product gradually and in a controlled way, ensuring optimal protection.
This makes soft air ideal for packing items such as strawberries, brie and meat products with bone, as well as non-food products such as screws, bolts, electronics etc.
External pump connection
Allows external installation of the pump in separate locations.
External pump connection
×Instead of using the machine’s built-in vacuum pump, you can choose to use an external vacuum pump. This can be installed in a separate room. For industrial applications or situations that demand a more powerful pump, the use of an external vacuum pump can be a valuable option. The main advantage of an externally installed pump is that the source of heat and noise is placed outside the room.
The external pump connection is available on all Henkelman double chamber machines.
Bi-active seal
Seals aluminum and thick vacuum bags on both sides using sealing bars at the top and bottom
