Milk and Liquid Packaging Machines

When buying a liquid packaging machine, there are 4 main aspects to consider: Speed, Hygiene, and Accuracy and Robust design.

A milk packaging machine (or any liquid filling machine) should provide high speed pouch filling performance, while maintaining the freshness of the packaged liquid products. Since it is handling an edible liquid, hygiene is vital, so the machine should be built to international safety and hygiene standards, and be easy to clean.

Accuracy is essential, not just in terms of minimal wastage, but also consistency.  Robust design refers to usability, with regard to operator interface, ease of changeover and low maintenance, and durability – so your investment delivers best ROI for years.

Another useful feature is flexibility, that is, the ease with which the same machine can be used for packaging items other than milk or liquids. Some automatic liquid filling machines are available with versatile filler options, appropriate for packaging a variety of products, like powders, grains, pastes, pulps, solids, etc. This allows manufacturers to use the same automatic packaging machine for packaging various kinds of products by easily switching between fillers.

Other features to look for are energy efficiency, small machine footprint and quantity range which will enable you to offer multiple pouch sizes to widen your market reach.
