With the deep popularity of healthy diet concepts, traditional pure oatmeal is no longer the only choice for consumers. A variety of products with diverse forms and flavors emerge in an endless stream, including nut oatmeal, 3-in-1 oatmeal, soybean milk oatmeal, fruit flavored mixed oatmeal, chia seed grain oatmeal, sugar-free oatmeal, yogurt chunk oatmeal, grain loops and crispy oatmeal. Manufacturers have put forward higher requirements for the automation level of packaging processes. Against this backdrop, Guangzhou Marchi Packaging Equipment Co., Ltd. jointly with Hefei Marchi Packaging Equipment Co., Ltd. has launched an oatmeal mixed vertical packaging machine solution centered on the fully automatic granule three-side sealing packaging machine (Precision Formula Packaging Machine, Model MC-3-1-320) for oatmeal processing enterprises nationwide. It provides full-process support from material feeding to palletizing for grain food factories in North China, East China, South China, Central China, Southwest China, Northwest China and other regions.
I. Model Selection and Key Parameters
Aiming at the characteristics of 3-in-1 oatmeal packaging machine in actual production such as diverse material components, high sealing requirements and frequent production changeover, Marchi selects the Precision Formula Packaging Machine MC-3-1-320 as the core model. Adopting stainless steel body, the machine features compact overall structure, corrosion resistance and easy cleaning, complying with food production hygiene specifications. The Chinese and English touch screen control system integrates formula management functions. Users can pre-store packaging parameters of different products such as pure oatmeal, mixed fruit oatmeal and nut oatmeal into the system, and complete all settings with one-key calling during production changeover.
Key parameters are as follows:

II. Core Configuration and Equipment Advantages
The packaging machine adopts imported electrical control components in core configuration to ensure stable and reliable long-term continuous operation. The equipment advantages are mainly reflected in the following aspects:
- Precision Metering and Loss Reduction: The cup metering device can achieve stable feeding for materials in different forms such as flaky grains, block dried fruits and sticky fruit dices, ensuring uniform net content of each bag of mixed oatmeal and reducing material loss.
- Flexible Switching and Downtime Reduction: Formula parameters of different products can be preset and stored. Operators can complete production changeover with one-key calling, reducing manual commissioning time and error probability.
- Stable Sealing Quality: The heating tube cooperates with high-performance precision sealing molds for even heating. The sealing lines are clear and firm, and mesh pattern, straight pattern or decorative pattern can be customized as required to enhance the overall image of packaging bags.
- Adaptable to Diversified Materials: The machine can package oatmeal, mixed oatmeal, 3-in-1 oatmeal, corn flakes, milk oatmeal, crispy oatmeal, children’s oatmeal, oat kernels, quick-cooking oatmeal, soybean milk oatmeal, yogurt oatmeal, chia seed grain oatmeal, oat bran, sugar-free oatmeal, nut oatmeal, berry oatmeal, raisin oatmeal, coconut milk oatmeal, vanilla flavored oatmeal, gluten-free oatmeal, probiotic oatmeal, meal replacement powder, lotus root powder, soybean milk powder, black sesame paste and many other products. It fully meets the packaging demands of breakfast food factories, instant drink workshops and meal replacement food production lines.
- Flexible Customization and Function Expansion: Peripheral equipment such as vacuum feeder, date coder, inkjet printer, finished product conveyor and weight detector can be optionally equipped according to material characteristics for function expansion. Sealing type, sealing pattern, cutter type and bag type can all be customized according to customer demands.
III. Full Packaging Process: From Material Feeding to Palletizing
Marchi oatmeal mixed vertical packaging machine covers the complete production process from material feeding to finished product palletizing. This fully automatic process not only improves production efficiency, but also saves labor costs for manufacturers. The specific process is as follows:
Step 1: Automatic Feeding
Materials are conveyed to the storage bin by a vacuum feeder, and then quantitatively filled by the cup metering device according to the preset weight. No manual intervention is required in the feeding process.
Step 2: Bag Making and Filling
The packaging film is folded into bag shape by the former, and the cup metering device accurately fills materials into the bag according to the set weight of 1—100 grams.
Step 3: Sealing and Bag Cutting
The bag body is sent to the sealing station. The heat sealing knife completes three-side sealing or customized four-side sealing and back sealing, with mesh pattern or customized decorative pattern pressed on the sealing line; the cutter cuts and separates bags according to the set bag width.
Step 4: Output and Coding
Finished bags are sent out via the conveyor belt, and the linked date coder or inkjet printer automatically prints production date, batch number and other identification information.
Step 5: Bag Arranging and Sorting
The automatic bag arranging device groups and arranges packaging bags according to preset quantity to prepare for subsequent palletizing.
Step 6: Robot Palletizing
The robot palletizing system stacks finished products neatly on pallets according to set layers and arrangement modes, forming a full-process closed loop from bag making to palletizing.
IV. Common Problems and Solutions
In the long-term service of oatmeal manufacturers across East China, South China, North China, Southwest China, Northwest China and other regions nationwide, Marchi has sorted out frequent customer pain points and put forward corresponding solutions:
- Pain Point 1: Multiple material varieties, frequent formula switching and time-consuming machine adjustment.
