Looking for a reliable way to seal containers with tamper-proof, airtight protection? An Induction Sealer Machine is the answer. Whether you're packaging food, beverages, pharmaceuticals, or chemicals, induction sealing provides a professional finish and extended shelf life for your products.
In this guide, we’ll explore the types of induction sealing machines for sale, how they work, what to consider before buying, and how they can benefit your business.
Principle: When electromagnetic waves come into contact with metal materials, an eddy current magnetic field is generated, causing the metal materials to heat up instantly to achieve the purpose of converting magnetic heat into practical use. Based on the above principle, the aluminum foil gasket electromagnetic induction sealing machine performs induction sealing on bottle containers with aluminum foil gaskets (special sealing consumables with metal aluminum attached) in the bottle caps. When the bottle container passes through the magnetic induction area of the sealing machine, the aluminum foil gasket in the cap will be inductively identified, and the metal aluminum attached to the gasket will instantly become hot, melting the adhesive layer on the gasket to the bottle mouth and combining them into one, achieving the purpose of beautiful and firm product sealing.
At Tengzhuo Packing Machinery, we offer a range of induction sealing machines to meet different production needs:
Handheld Induction Sealers – Portable and ideal for small-scale operations or laboratory use.

All machines are compatible with plastic (PE, PET, PP, HDPE) and glass containers and can be customized based on foil size and sealing requirements.
The characteristics of electromagnetic aluminum foil induction sealing machine mainly include the following aspects:
Efficient and fast sealing: The electromagnetic aluminum foil induction sealing machine uses the principle of electromagnetic induction to heat up the aluminum foil gasket and melt the adhesive layer in a very short time, thereby achieving fast and efficient sealing operation
Beautiful and firm sealing effect: Through induction heating, the aluminum foil gasket can be evenly melted and fit tightly with the bottle mouth to form a beautiful and firm seal, which can effectively prevent the leakage of contents
Wide range of application: The equipment is widely used in the pharmaceutical, food, chemical and other industries, and is suitable for the sealing needs of various bottled containers
Easy operation: The electromagnetic aluminum foil induction sealing machine is exquisitely designed and easy to operate. It is suitable for power adjustment according to the properties of different filling materials and can meet the needs of laboratory and small batch production
Technical parameters: Taking the manual electromagnetic induction aluminum foil sealer as an example, its working voltage is 220V, the frequency is 50/60Hz, the maximum output power is 600W, the sealing diameter range is 20-60mm, which is suitable for small bottle mouths.
Working Principle of Induction Sealing Machine: Step-by-Step Explanation
An electromagnetic induction aluminum foil sealing machine creates a hermetic, tamper-evident seal on containers by using non-contact heat generation. This process involves a combination of electromagnetic theory, precise heating, and pressure sealing.
High-Frequency Electromagnetic Field Generation
At the core of the induction sealing machine is a powerful high-frequency generator (usually operating between 20 kHz to 500 kHz). This generator drives an induction coil, which is positioned in the machine's sealing head.
When activated:
The electronic circuitry produces a high-frequency alternating current (AC).
This current flows through the induction coil, producing a rapidly alternating electromagnetic field in the space beneath the coil.
This field penetrates through the non-metallic bottle cap and interacts with the aluminum foil liner inside the cap.
Eddy Current Heating of Aluminum Foil
The alternating electromagnetic field induces eddy currents (localized electrical currents) within the aluminum foil layer. Due to the electrical resistance of the foil:
These eddy currents cause Joule heating (also called resistive heating).
The foil heats up very rapidly—within milliseconds—without any direct contact.
As a result:
The heat-sealing layer (usually wax or polymer) on the underside of the foil softens or melts.
This layer is typically chosen based on the container material (e.g., PE, PP, PET, HDPE, or glass).
Sealing Formation (Bonding and Cooling)
Once the heat-sealing layer reaches its melting point:
The liner softens and bonds tightly to the rim of the container.
Some machines apply mechanical pressure to help the molten layer adhere firmly to the bottle opening.
The bottle then moves away from the coil and cooling begins, solidifying the seal.
After cooling:
The aluminum foil remains tightly sealed to the bottle mouth.
The cap may include a secondary liner that remains inside the cap (commonly in two-piece liners).
This results in:
Airtight, leak-proof protection
Tamper-evident sealing
Preservation of freshness and product quality
Application Scenarios
The induction sealing process is versatile and used in many industries:
Pharmaceutical Sealing of pill bottles, syrups, and powders to meet hygiene and safety standards
Food & Beverage Bottled sauces, juices, dairy products, and oils to ensure leak protection and shelf stability
Cosmetics & Personal Care Creams, lotions, shampoos in PET or HDPE containers
Chemical & Agrochemical Sealing of industrial cleaners, pesticides, and motor oil to prevent leaks and spills
Health Supplements Protein powders, vitamins, and capsules for tamper-proof packaging
Industry | Application |
Pharmaceutical | Sealing of pill bottles, syrups, and powders to meet hygiene and safety standards |
Food & Beverage | Bottled sauces, juices, dairy products, and oils to ensure leak protection and shelf stability |
Cosmetics & Personal Care | Creams, lotions, shampoos in PET or HDPE containers |
Chemical & Agrochemical | Sealing of industrial cleaners, pesticides, and motor oil to prevent leaks and spills |

Before purchasing an induction sealing machine, consider the following:
Performance stability: The performance stability of the sealing machine is the key. The equipment should be able to work stably during use to avoid intermittent sealing or loose sealing. The quality of the equipment can be evaluated by examining its sealing performance
Construction and solder joint flatness: The construction and solder joint flatness of the sealing machine are also important criteria for judging quality. Reasonable construction and uniform and flat solder joints can ensure the durability and efficient operation of the equipment
Sealing performance: Through sealing performance tests such as pressure tests and vacuum tests, the sealing performance of the seal can be verified to ensure that the product is not affected by the outside world during the shelf life
Appearance and flatness: The beauty and flatness of the seal directly affect the overall image of the product and consumer acceptance. Check whether the sealing edge is smooth, wrinkle-free, undamaged, and tightly fitted with the bottle body or packaging material
Material adaptability: Different materials react differently to electromagnetic induction, so it is necessary to evaluate the adaptability of the sealing machine to different materials (such as PET, PE, glass bottles, etc.) to ensure that it can effectively bond various materials
Production efficiency and stability: High production efficiency and stability are essential for large-scale production. Evaluate the continuous operation capacity, failure rate and maintenance cost of the sealing machine to ensure that it can maintain stable performance in a high-intensity production environment
Price and budget: Choose the appropriate type of equipment (manual, automatic or fully automatic) according to your needs, and consider the price difference of the equipment. If a simple manual type is required, there is no need to spend extra money
Brand and after-sales service: Choose a brand with a good reputation and understand its after-sales service quality to ensure timely technical support and maintenance during use
Tengzhuo offers full consultation and customization to ensure the perfect fit for your production line.
