Filling Systems for Fulfilling Packaging

 


Across industries around the globe, automatic packaging machines have been on an exponential growth path. The major reasons for this are their speed, accessibility and ease of use as well as the superior appeal of the packaging.

The filling system is a critical element of both vertical form-fill-seal machines and horizontal form-fill-seal machines. This is a component that is responsible for the accurate measurement and release of the specified quantity of the product that is to be filled in each pouch. The choice of filler is made on the basis of the product that has to be packed. Some common filling systems include the cup filler, auger filler, linear weigh filler, combination weigh filler, piston filler among others.

Being the leading provider of integrated packaging solutions, and a renowned packaging machine manufacturer, Nichrome brings to you a plethora of filling systems for diverse applications in the food, pharma and non-food segments. The filling systems are selected on the basis of the product that needs to be packed. Whether it is liquid packaging, grain packaging, snack packaging, oil packaging, sugar packaging or ready-to-eat food packaging - different products will need different kinds of filling systems.

There are primarily two basic criteria used by packagers use to determine the right filling system for their particular application:
 

Criteria for Choosing a Filler 

Level of automation: Filling systems are designed to be integrated with automated packaging systems. They can also be configured to operate as single, semi-automatic machines, for eg, by integrating the filler with capping machinery. 

To pinpoint the level of automation required for your filling system, it is important to determine the packaging rate and capacity you will require. In case of higher production levels, it may be necessary to use something like an eight-headed automatic filling machine with the option of adding additional heads in the future.

Filling process: The filling process is determined by the distinctive traits of the packaged product. A milk filling machine and a powder filling machine will need different configurations and designs. Same goes for an automatic sugar filling machine and edible oil filling machine - they will all need different kinds of fillers to operate.

For instance, gravity fillers are apt for thin and free-flowing products. Denser, viscous products cannot work just on the basis of gravity, and hence a piston filler or pump filling machine needs to be used instead.

WHY BUYING NICHROME’S MULTI HEAD WEIGHER PACKING MACHINE MAKES GOOD SENSE.

 

Multi head weighers are now the standard equipment for weighing and packing applications in varied industries.

Especially if your business deals with fresh, food products, it is essential that the product is weighed efficientlywhile moving at great speed, and filled competently, without waste.

Multi head weigher delivers two main advantages: speed and accuracy. So if you’re looking for an efficient tea packaging machine or coffee packaging machine, namkeen packing machine or any powder packaging machine, a multi head weigher packing machine makes good business sense.

In fact, this machine works well even for products such as sugar, grains,spices, pasta, dog food, etc., which are often considered difficult to weigh efficiently or tend to get stuck within the equipment.

How does a multi head weigher packing machine work?

Basically, a multi head weigher packing machine takes bulk product and weighs it into smaller increments according tothe weight programmed into its software. The bulk product is fed into the scale through the infeed funnel on top. The top cone and feed pans vibrate and gently move the product towards the weigh buckets around the edge of the scale which are constantly weighing the product they contain.

To reach the target weight, the software chooses the sum of a combination of buckets which add up to the correct amount.

Standard multi-head weighers range from 10 to 24 heads. The more weighing heads a system has, higher the possible speeds and greater the accuracy.
