With the year-on-year rise in labour costs for food processing enterprises, more and more manufacturing enterprises have turned their attention to automatic packaging processes. Recently, granular food packaging machines, wheat granule packaging machines and large-bag granule packaging machines have gained significantly rising popularity in grain processing, snack food and other fields. Featuring stable and efficient automatic operation, the equipment helps enterprises complete a series of procedures including metering, bag sleeving, sealing and conveying.
I. Why Granular Food Packaging Machines Become Industry Favourites
Granular materials cover a wide range, including rice, millet, cracked corn, oatmeal, coix seed, red beans, mung beans, buckwheat, sorghum, peanuts, melon seeds, nuts, dried fruits, candies, puffed food, pet food, feed pellets, plastic pellets, chemical granules and so on. Such materials have good fluidity and similar particle shapes, suitable for automatic quantitative packaging.
Take large-bag granule packaging machines as an example. They are mainly designed for large packaging specifications with filling weight usually at 10～25 kilograms per bag, applicable to scenarios such as wholesale repacking of rice, by-product packaging of flour mills and turnover bag packaging for grain and oil enterprises. Compared with manual operation, each executing unit of the automatic unit is equipped with control and safety devices to realise automatic continuous operation. The closed machine body design together with door opening detection interlock devices takes both production efficiency and operation safety into consideration.
II. Rising Demand for Wheat Granule Packaging Machines
Deep processing of wheat is an important link in the grain industrial chain. Hulled wheat granules, wheat berries, whole wheat grains and other products enjoy stable demand among flour product manufacturers and food raw material suppliers. Developed and designed according to the characteristics of granular materials, wheat granule packaging machines can match different blanking and metering methods based on particle size, bulk density and fluidity of materials to reduce weighing errors and manual intervention.
For medium and large processing enterprises, adopting a wheat granule packaging machine means transformation from the mode of "manual handling + empirical bag filling" to "automatic weighing + automatic bag loading + automatic filling + automatic bag delivery + automatic sealing". Labour intensity is obviously reduced and the workshop operating environment becomes more standardised.
III. What Parameters Should Be Checked When Selecting Large-Bag Granule Packaging Machines
Equipment parameters serve as an important reference when purchasing large-bag granule packaging machines. Take the widely used MCZD-25K granule packaging unit in the industry as an example: Model: MCZD-25K Maximum packaging capacity: 4～6 bags per minute Filling weight: 10～25 kilograms per bag Packaging bag materials: paper bags, plastic bags, woven bags, etc. Packaging bag size (Length × Width): (600～1100) × (300～600) mm Air consumption: 750 standard litres per minute Total power: 3 kilowatts
This unit integrates functions including automatic weighing, automatic bag loading, automatic filling, automatic bag delivery and automatic sealing. Accurate and reliable mechanical operations replace manual procedures such as metering, bag sleeving and conveying with a high degree of automation. Developed and designed for granular materials, it achieves a good balance between stability and efficiency.
