Inspection Setup and Equipment Identification

Verify machine ID, seal bar location, and line or station match the inspection record.
Check that the current bag or pouch specification, seal width, and target settings are available to the inspector.
Inspect the bar face, jaws, and adjacent surfaces for film residue, product buildup, or debris that could affect heat transfer or pressure.
Confirm availability of temperature probe, pressure indicator, feeler gauge, or other approved verification tools.
Confirm the machine is at operating temperature and ready for verification per SOP or work instruction.

Seal Bar Temperature Uniformity

Record the measured temperature at the left end of the seal bar.
Record the measured temperature at the center of the seal bar.
Record the measured temperature at the right end of the seal bar.
Record the maximum observed temperature difference across the bar width.
Verify the controller is not drifting, cycling abnormally, or showing fault indications during the check.

Seal Bar Pressure Profile

Record the measured pressure or force at the left end of the seal bar.
Record the measured pressure or force at the center of the seal bar.
Record the measured pressure or force at the right end of the seal bar.
Record the maximum observed pressure difference across the bar width.
Observe the closing action for uneven contact, misalignment, or mechanical interference across the bar width.

Seal Surface Condition and Alignment

Inspect the seal surface for damage that could create channels, weak seals, or inconsistent pressure transfer.
Verify the upper and lower sealing surfaces are aligned and contact evenly across the full width.
Check that any cushioning or release material is not torn, compressed, missing, or shifted.
Inspect fasteners, mounts, and linkage for looseness that could affect pressure profile or alignment.

Seal Quality Verification

Inspect a representative sealed bag or pouch for uniform seal appearance and absence of channels or gaps.
Record whether the seal passed the approved integrity check, such as peel, burst, or leak verification per SOP.
If any temperature, pressure, alignment, or seal quality issue is found, document the corrective action and disposition of affected product.
