Morpheus Series
Matrix has developed a series of Morpheus machines that can meet the needs of your production floor. Choose from either Allen-Bradley controls or the state-of-the-art Beckhoff control system. Combine new, faster technology with; user friendly, highly intuitive, and bursting with possibilities for further technological advancements, these control systems will remain on the cutting edge for years to come. The versatility of this new high speed technology allows the Matrix Morpheus continuous box-motion VFFS to succeed in all types of conditions and with a huge range of products and applications.
Runs films that require longer seal times making it ideal for markets such as:
- Snack Industry
- Frozen
- Fresh cut
- IQF (Individually Quick Frozen) markets
- Cheese Industry
AutoPro Automatic Changeover System
The AutoPro System is a price and performance breakthrough on the Matrix Continuous Motion Vertical Form Fill Seal Machines.
The AutoPro changeover solution from Matrix eliminates manual adjustments such as hand cranks and thumb screws in favor of precision electronic motion control to effectively eliminate time consuming adjustments during changeover. With the touch of a button your can re-configure your format automatically. Making changeover fast and easy for any operator.

About the Matrix Morpheus Series:
- Matrix offers three different machines to meet the needs of your production facility:
- Morpheus: Standard machine with up to a 12” bag width
- Morpheus AB: Includes Rockwell controls; up to 12” bag width
- Morpheus XL: Larger machine with up to a 15” bag width
- All Morpheus Series machines come with the following:
- Increase speed with films, such as polyethylene, that require longer seal times.
- Film is pulled while the jaw is closed as opposed to waiting until the jaw opens to pull film.
- Gentle product handling as the jaw is in the elevated position when product is dropped into the bag, and the drop distance in minimized. The jaw then lowers pulling the film down with the movement to seal the top of the bag.
