What is a packaging machine and what is it for?

KOPER, Slovenia - March 7, 2018 - PRLog -- Have you ever wondered what kind of machines are used to produce all kinds of packaging we see every day? But even before asking you this question, do you realize all "packaging" that is around you right now? Let's deepen this topic together.

What is packaging?

First of all, it is important to realize that packaging sector is very large. In fact, we find it in various sectors of activity, from the food sector, to the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, dietary, manufacturing, etc.

There are also different types of packaging: primary packaging that is in direct contact with the product, secondary packaging that can be a carton or a box for example, and the service sector that is the final one, which is usually used for transport and which can be for instance a wooden pallet.

Packaging machines

For every type of packaging and products there is a suitable packaging machine. For example, let's start with solid products:

1.    they can be packed in the form of blisters, in this case blistering machines are needed

2.    in a box then a vertical or horizontal cartoning machine is needed

3.   in a carton we need a case-packer machine.

For liquid products instead, we have:

1.    machines for filling bottles, these are called filling and capping machines

2.    the tube fillers that fill the tubes made of both aluminum and plastic

For powder products, on the other hand, we use:

1.      micro or macro-dosing powder machines

2.      bag filling machines or sachet machines

These machines are just an example of some packaging machines, there are many more, and each deserves to be described and explained individually. The second-hand market offers various possibilities, from the single machine to the entire packaging line.
