In the constant temperature and humidity assembly workshop of ply-pack, the engineer's fingers are sliding quickly on the touch screen, and the high-speed ketchup packaging machine under debugging makes a slight hum. This equipment, which is about to be delivered to a food group in Southeast Asia, is repeatedly calibrated with an elegant arc trajectory at its outlet, like dancing a precise mechanical ballet.
"The biggest pain point of traditional sauce packaging is the unstable transportation of viscous materials." R&D Director Li wiped the fog off the lens. The high-speed ketchup packaging machine behind him was showing its core breakthrough-the three-spiral metering device using flexible packaging technology can automatically adjust the filling speed according to the rheological properties of ketchup. This bionic design not only allows the packaging speed to exceed 120 bags per minute, but also controls the residual material rate to below 0.3%.
In the packaging machine testing area, Mr. Zhang, a customer from Xinjiang, is leaning over to observe the finished product on the conveyor belt. The organic ketchup brand he runs has just obtained EU export certification. "The modular design of the high-speed ketchup packaging machine perfectly connects with our existing production line, especially the patented anti-drip nozzle, which completely solves the bottle mouth pollution problem that has troubled us for many years."
As consumers' requirements for the freshness of condiments increase, intelligent control systems are rewriting the rules of food packaging. The cloud data platform of this high-speed ketchup packaging machine can monitor 12 parameters such as workshop temperature and humidity, material viscosity, etc. in real time. When the solid content of ketchup is detected to fluctuate, the compensation program will be automatically started. This predictive maintenance function reduces the equipment downtime by 60%.
The debugged equipment is about to set off, and the robotic arm installs the last set of sensors into the shockproof box. The setting sun shines on the silver-gray fuselage through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the workshop, and the nameplate of the high-speed ketchup packaging machine reflects a faint light, as if telling this new era of the sauce packaging efficiency revolution. On the other side of the factory, workers have begun assembling orders to be shipped to Mexico next month, with laser alignment devices on the assembly line flashing emerald green guide lights.
