PROTECTIVE BODY, HEAT SEALING SYSTEM THAT INCLUDES THE PROTECTIVE BODY, AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING THE PROTECTIVE BODY

摘要

A protective body for a heat sealing system is provided. The protective body includes a flexible supporting layer and an exposed layer. The flexible supporting layer has opposite first and second sides. The first side can be coupled to a tool of a heat sealing system. The heat sealing system heat seals a film to a container to enclose the container or to heat seal films together. The exposed layer has a lower coefficient of friction than the supporting layer and is bonded to the second side of the supporting layer. The exposed layer prevents the film that is being heat sealed from sticking to the tool, or to prevent the films being heat sealed together from sticking to the tool.
