You have a business which deals with Chemicals. Packaging the Chemicals is one of the most critical tasks for you to do as it will ensure that your Chemicals are safe during transportation and storage. Chemicals are usually packed using specialized packing machines to ensure safety and avoid damages during shipping. Chemicals can be dry, wet, or powdery, depending on their nature.

The packing machine provides that the products don't come into contact with any other material, which could cause chemical reactions leading to dangerous conditions such as explosions or poisoning if swallowed by humans or animals. For this, there are many types of packing machines available in the market, and understanding their features and applications can help you choose the right one for your chemical products.

Applications

Chemical packing machines pack chemicals and petrochemical substances such as corrosives, acids, solvents, alkalis, and resins. Chemicals are packed in the container and transported to the final destination with the utmost care, safety, and protection for both customers and the environment. The packing machine is used only after a correct analysis of product properties such as shape, weight, size, etc., to pack efficiently without any wastage or leakage.

Features

A chemical packing machine helps reduce the risk of leakage and contamination as it comes with a high degree of vacuum sealing mechanism for airtight packaging. The pneumatic valves are available in different sizes according to the level of vacuum required by product size or shape. It makes sure that all products have proper sealing without any loss of volume inside the container at the destination point. Though they come in manual form, these machines offer a higher productivity rate with minimum human intervention, saving time and cost for customers.

Different products in the bags

  • cement and granulates
  • coal
  • sawdust and wood chips
  • powders of metals and plastics.
  • food products

Most packing machines are designed for one type of product only, but some can handle various products while others specialize in specific materials such as coal or cement. The most common types include Chemicals Packaging Machine, Cement Packing Machines, Coal Packing Machines, Polymer Powder Packaging Machinery.

Types

There are different types of filling machines to solve packing a diverse variety of products. They are:

  1. Bagging Machines: They allow the users to pack dry, wet, or powdery products in bags.
  2. Bottom Sealing Machine: These machines seal the bottom of a bag to prevent leakage during storage and distribution.
  3. Packing Taper Machines: It is an automated packaging machine that continuously wraps uniformly sized pieces of cylindrical packages with plastic film.
  4. Rotary Packing Machines: For packing pellets into bulk containers, these types can be built as stand-alone equipment or integrated into the production line process.
  5. Top Sealing Machinery: This type creates individual pouches within larger sheets by sealing off one side at a time where they have finished folding over onto themselves on top of each other.
  6. Vertical Vacuum Forming Packaging Machine: The primary purpose of this packing machinery is to create airtight, hermetically sealed cups used as a container or cup and come with handles.
  7. Wet Packing Machinery: It can pack raw meat into pouches and other types like eggs, tomatoes, etc., so one can refrigerate before being sold. Chemicals packing machine uses vacuum to remove all air from a container and to store hazardous chemicals.
  8. Dry Packing Machines: They can compress granular sugar from bags into drums without any spillage. It uses force-feeding technology where gravity assists in pushing the material down towards compaction areas on the drum.
