Message from the President Growing up in Southern California with my sister and two brothers, we learned from an early age that this small manufacturing family business extended way past ourselves to include employees, vendors and ultimately our customers. Our parents, Albert and Helen Misik instilled in us that the Belco name was more than a corporate logo, it became our personal signature on every machine system we built. Our Belco brand has grown quite a bit in the last 60 years. It is something we take immense pride and joy in as we deliver the performance, value and quality machine systems our customers have come to expect. That is why we treat every new customer as an important and valuable addition to our family. When an inquiry from a customer comes in, we strive to answer the challenge with the proper solution, a standard build or custom machine and not with what is in stock or on the showroom floor. Challenge us to solve your packaging problems. Our team has the experience, know how and talent to build exactly what you need and present it to you just as if you were part of our own family. Thank you for spending a little time with us! A. Michael Misik President

Curing Tunnel It's About Time. When the need for absolute process control is necessary, Belco Curing Tunnels can perform at production rated speeds and expectations. Digital controls monitor tunnel temperature, conveyor belt speed, blower motor speed, air flow and overall time in the heated chamber. Whether you need extended heat soaking time or annealing capabilities, these custom designed machines can significantly improve your quality and throughput. All Curing / Annealing Tunnels Are 100% Custom And Made To Order! CT 2210 Curing Tunnel The CT 2210 Curing Tunnel with Product Cooling Fan is built for larger and taller products.

Bolted Frame vs Welded Frame Does it Matter? Since day 1 (over 60 years ago), Belco Packaging Systems has always believed that a completely welded frame would be the key to building the highest quality packaging machines. Most of the other brands that attempt to stack up against Belco build their machines on a bolted frame system. So what's better? Is there a difference? Well, yes. So what are the benefits of a welded frame? - Strength of Frame - Rigidity, even after 60 years! - Peace of mind know that your frame won't get messed up from transportation or simple use. - Life of the machine. - Confidence that your package seal will be as consistent after 10, 20, 30+ years, as the day you bought it. And the benefits of a bolted frame? - Cheaper Bolted frames can never be as rigid as a welded frame. Over time, those connections WILL loosen up, and your machine will no longer be able to provide quality seals. But here's the thing. . . it doesn't take years of use or millions of packages to get that way. It can happen in just the first week, if you're not careful. We once got a few of our competitors upset at a trade show. When speaking with someone about the construction of our frame, we challenged him to put his hands on the machine, try to shake it (to feel the rigidity), and to feel the quality of construction. We encouraged it. Our products are rock solid, and will always remain that way. Later that day this same person was visiting a competitors booth and started shaking their machine to tell how solid the machine was. A rep for this company nearly had a heart attack and asked him to stop immediately. Their machines had a bolted frame. The rep stated that you should NEVER mishandle the machine or it could become damaged. If a little shaking can damage your machine, is it really worth putting on your floor? This gentleman realized that every machine he was looking at was on a bolted frame, except the Belco. He's been a Belco customer ever since. Quality matters. Why trust your money in a product that can get messed up just by moving it incorrectly? Do you want a machine that you will need to work on constantly and replace every couple years? Or do you want peace of mind knowing that your machine will last as long (if not longer) than you. From our revolutionary Merlin F/F/S and our BM2030 PC Medical Tray Sealer to our compact ST1808 Shrink Tunnel and PM PC Medical Pouch Sealer, each and every frame constructed by Belco is completely welded. Quality begins at the core of any machine. And if the quality is this good on something you may not even see. . . just think about the quality of the things you do see! So, does it matter? All Belco machines have 100% welded frames. No Ifs, Ands, or Bolts.

To meet these needs, Belco Packaging Systems introduced its BM2030-PC Medical Tray Sealer at PACK EXPO Las Vegas in Sep. 2019. Awarded with a PMMI Technology Excellence Award at the show for new innovation, the system is designed for consistency and repeatability, producing high quality seals for FDA-monitored operations such as implantable device packaging. Based in Monrovia, CA, Belco has served the manufacturing industry for over 60 years. The company explains that the BM2030-PC represents customer feedback and wishes collected over 45 years of manufacturing medical tray sealers. “The system is designed for customers in FDA-regulated environments who need the machine-generated evidence that they’re complying with their quality management system,” explains Belco Vice President Tom Misik. “The machine will let you know if something is not working right. When it is functioning properly, it will provide the data for the MDM [medical device manufacturer] to upload into their permanent device record.” The system offers speed and control, thanks to two Festo belt driven linear actuators, a Beckhoff industrial panel PC and several other features for safety and ease of use. One of the hallmarks of Belco designs is “No ifs, ands or bolts.” The machine is built with a welded structural steel foundation, robust for avoiding metal distortion or warping in heat sealing operations that combine high temperature and pressure.
