A method for high-speed vacuum unitary packaging of portion-cut meats,
wherein a vacuum four-side sealed object containing a plurality of
portion-cut meats obtained by dividing a livestock meat, such as beef,
pork, chicken, or the like, or a large-size fish into many portions is
divided into four-side sealed objects with vacuum being maintained at
high speed using an impulse sealer for vacuum unitary packaging. Two or
more portion-cut meats are loaded on conveying means with a prescribed
spacing being given between portion-cut meats; a vacuum four-side sealed
object is formed by using upper and lower wrapping films having
gas-barrier properties and inner surface thermal fusion bonding
properties to integrally vacuum package the portion-cut meats; a flat
part between portion-cut meats in the vacuum four-side sealed object is
fusion bonded by using a heat impulse sealer for heating film layers from
both above and under to form two or more seal lines; and the films
between the two or more seal lines are secondary cut; a second
energization of lower heater wires and secondary cutting being
simultaneously carried out after a first energization of upper heater
wires being completed, or a second energization of upper heater wires and
secondary cutting being simultaneously carried out after a first
energization of lower heater wires being completed.
