Poppet Valve - Stem Only

This poppet valve stem serves as the actuating element within the vacuum and gas control valves on the Curwood 618 (FlexVac 6-18) continuous-motion packaging machine. The stem moves axially within the valve body to open and close the flow path, regulating vacuum draw and gas flush operations as required during the packaging cycle.

Designed for modified atmosphere packaging applications, including products such as bacon, this component plays a direct role in maintaining the integrity of the MAP process by enabling precise control of vacuum and gas media. Its function is critical to consistent cycle performance on the FlexVac 6-18 platform.

Supplied as a stem-only replacement, this part allows technicians to service the internal actuating components of the valve without removing or replacing the full valve body assembly. This reduces parts cost and downtime associated with poppet valve maintenance on the machine's vacuum and gas control system.
