Filling and sealing line are a vital part of any manufacturing operation that requires liquid packaging. They come in a wide range of designs, from table top versions to highly efficient automatic multi-head filling machines. The size of the production line and the type of product being packaged are among the many factors that can influence the machine that is best suited to the project.
The product timeline is also an important factor when selecting the right equipment. The faster the line can run, the better the machine will perform at its optimum level.
A high-speed tube filling line can be an excellent addition to a company that produces lotions, creams or other types of products that are packed in tubes. This highly automated line uses a round rotary plate at each of its stations to fold, seal and code the filled tube.
Form fill and seal is a type of pouch packaging that can be used to package a variety of products, such as food, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and more. This process involves using film or other material to form a pouch before it is sealed and filled with the product inside.
The first step of this process is to place the pouch film over a lengthwise sealing unit that forms the bag. The second step is to fill the product into the bag with a filler.
Another station on this equipment is a dust collection station that collects any loose particles that may be escaping from the pouch. Depending on the type of product being filled, this station can be equipped with a second liquid seal to ensure maximum integrity.
