I. Core Equipment Advantages: High Precision, High Efficiency, Intelligence and Stability
Marchi MCGD8-200 is the classic model of fully automatic potato chip packaging machine, adopting fully automatic pre-made pouch design to independently complete the whole process including bag picking, date printing, bag opening, filling, heat sealing, shaping and finished product output. The equipment has prominent advantages: Easy operation and intelligent control. Equipped with PLC control system and human-machine interface, parameter setting is intuitive, and operators can operate proficiently after simple training. Automatic bag width adjustment for quick production changeover. Bag width adjustment is motor-controlled, all grippers can be synchronously adjusted with one click to quickly switch packaging bags of different specifications and meet the production demands of multi-variety and small-batch orders. Multiple detection functions for safe and reliable operation. No feeding without bags or incompletely opened bags, no discharging if bags fail to open, no sealing without bags or materials, effectively avoiding material waste. Optional functions including door opening detection, missing color band alarm, low air pressure prompt and automatic shutdown for abnormal sealing temperature ensure stable operation. Sanitary design complying with standards. Parts in contact with materials are made of 304 stainless steel or food-grade plastic, meeting hygiene requirements for food production.
II. Wide Application Scenarios: Covering Various Puffed and Freeze-dried Foods
Marchi packaging machine is not only applicable to potato chips, but also for nitrogen-flushed packaging of puffed foods such as shrimp strips, popcorn, rice cakes, corn strips, rice crackers, crispy twists, cheese sticks, puffed rings, nutritional cereal rings, pea crisps, banana chips, vegetable crisps, shrimp crackers, corn flakes, hollow crisps and puffed grain crispy balls, crispy peanut beans, as well as freeze-dried foods including freeze-dried strawberries, freeze-dried blueberries, freeze-dried apples, freeze-dried bananas and freeze-dried mangoes.
III. Complete Packaging Process: Fully Automatic Operation from Bag Feeding to Palletizing
The packaging process of Marchi fully automatic potato chip packaging machine includes the following links: Bag feeding and loading. Empty packaging bags are automatically picked up and sent to the bag clamping station. Coding printing. Production date and batch number are printed on bags. Zipper unzipping and bag opening. Zippers are automatically unzipped and bag mouths stretched open for zipper bags and other special pouch types. Combination weighing and material discharging. Materials are delivered to the combination weigher via elevator and fall into bags after high-precision electronic weighing. Bag mouth cleaning and heat sealing. Residual materials on bag mouths are cleaned before heat sealing. Shaping and output. Finished bags are shaped after sealing to achieve flat and neat appearance.
Rear-end supporting procedures: Finished products are re-inspected by checkweigher to eliminate unqualified items; metal detectors are equipped to remove hidden foreign matter risks. Afterwards, automatic case erecting, quantitative case packing, case sealing and strapping are carried out. Finally, robots stack cartons on pallets according to preset stacking patterns, realizing full-line automation from packaging to palletizing.
