A comprehensive review of packaging machinery: what equipment do you know?

Unraveling Machinery: A Comprehensive Guide

Table of Contents

Packaging involves all walks of life. All production enterprises that produce physical products and need to enter the circulation field need packaging technology, especially in light industry, packaging equipment is indispensable. With the development of all walks of life, more and more industries use packaging equipment to reduce the labor intensity of the packaging process, improve product quality, reduce investment costs, and improve the working environment. For example, in the traditional tile industry, the previous packaging process was basically pure manual packaging. Now more and more ceramic factories use boxing and packaging machinery, which greatly reduces the labor intensity of the packaging process.

With the widespread use of packaging machinery in all walks of life, the types of packaging machinery have become more abundant. As a packager, especially a newcomer who has just entered this industry, he is even more confused about the wide variety of packaging machinery. According to the national standard for packaging machinery, we have sorted out our common packaging machinery. In this standard, packaging machinery is divided into 12 types of packaging machinery: filling machines, filling machines, sealing machines, wrapping machines, labeling machines, strapping machines, baling machines, sterilizers, dryers, cleaning machines, auxiliary packaging machines, and multi-functional packaging machines.

Among the 12 types of packaging machinery, each type of machinery can be further divided into various types of machinery. Among them, filling machines, labeling machines, sealing machines, filling machines and wrapping machines are the most common. These machines are also the most basic and important packaging processes. There are many types of packaging machinery. According to incomplete statistics, we now have as many as five or six thousand types of packaging machinery. With the development of packaging machinery, in recent years, packaging machinery has developed in the direction of multi-functionality, production line, and intelligence, and simple stand-alone equipment has gradually failed to meet the current packaging needs. However, most packaging equipment manufacturers are now small-scale enterprises, mainly producing a certain type of stand-alone equipment. There are relatively few companies that can produce a complete set of production lines. Next, through a brief introduction to the 12 types of packaging machinery, let us have a macro understanding of packaging machinery.

Filling Machine

A filling machine is a machine that fills packaging materials into a packaging container according to a predetermined amount. The materials generally filled are solid substances such as powders and granules, which are not fluid. There are usually three common metering methods for material filling, namely volumetric, weighing, and counting . Different types can be subdivided according to the different ways of achieving metering. Different packaging materials require different filling methods, and different filling methods require different filling machines to achieve. The common bag filling machines on the market can not only complete the filling of materials, but also complete the processes such as bag forming and sealing.

Filling Machine

A filling machine is a machine that fills materials into packaging containers according to quantity. Such materials are generally in liquid or semi-liquid state and have a certain fluidity. Filling machines are divided into normal pressure filling machines, negative pressure filling machines, isobaric filling machines and pressure filling machines according to the filling air pressure. According to the transportation method of the packaging container, there are linear filling machines and rotary filling machines.

Sealer

Sealing machines seal packaging containers that contain materials. In the specific packaging industry, different packaging containers and different packaging methods require different sealing machines. Thermostatic sealing machines are usually used for the packaging of plastic bottle sealing films and plastic bags. Capping sealing machines are often used for functional plastic cap bottles in packaging form. Crimping sealing machines are used for canned food packaging.

Wrapping Machine

Wrapping machine is a machine that wraps part or all of the product surface with flexible materials . There are many types of wrapping machines according to the different packaging forms . Common packaging methods include heat shrink, winding, stretching, on-site foaming, etc.

Multifunctional packaging machine

In actual packaging equipment, more and more machines can realize multiple packaging functions, rather than simply realizing a single packaging process. For example, the bagging machine mentioned above seals the plastic film after completing the filling of the material. There is also a vacuum packaging machine as shown in the figure below, which completes the filling, vacuuming and sealing of rice in the bag. With the development of industry, there are more and more personalized demands for the packaging industry, and the same equipment will meet multiple packaging functions.

Labeling Machine

A labeling machine is a machine that uses adhesives or other methods to display labels on packaging or products. Different labeling machines are selected according to different label forms and label materials. Common labeling machines include labeling machines, sleeve labeling machines, shrink labeling machines, self-adhesive labeling machines, etc.

Washing Machine

A cleaning machine is a machine that cleans packaging containers, packaging materials, packaging objects, and packaging items to achieve the expected cleanliness requirements. Depending on the cleaning solvent, cleaning machines can be divided into air washing and water washing .

Dryer

IMG_256

A dryer is a machine that removes moisture from packaging containers, packaging materials, packaging aids and packaging , and performs the desired drying.

Sterilizer

IMG_256

A sterilizer is a machine that kills harmful microorganisms on packaging materials, packaging containers, packaging materials, packaging aids and packaging items to reduce them to an allowable range.

Strapping Machine

IMG_256

A strapping machine is a machine that straps products or packages with strapping tape or rope, tightens the strapping tape and fuses the two ends of the strapping tape through thermal effects or connects them with materials such as buckles.

Container Loader

IMG_256

A container loader is a machine that integrates or disassembles packaging units to form suitable handling units. It is usually used for secondary packaging for the purpose of storage and transportation.

Auxiliary Packaging Machine

IMG_256

Auxiliary packaging machines refer to machines that perform non-primary packaging processes on packaging materials, packaging containers, packaging aids and packaging, such as capping machines .

There are many types of packaging machinery. I hope this introduction can help you have a macroscopic understanding of packaging machinery in general. In daily work, seeing new machinery can help you grasp the working principle and packaging method of the equipment more quickly. For a further understanding of packaging equipment, more information is needed to have a deeper understanding of packaging machinery.
