As people pay more attention on packaging effect before their purchase, more and more company prefer various type of packaging style to expand their market share, beside common film roll making bags, they also want to use pre-made pouch for packing.
On the one hand, the packing bag effect will be more beautiful and atmospheric, which is conducive to enhancing their brand image. Some entrepreeneur even choose pre-made bag at the very beginning of their new business. , which can also increase the unit price of sales. In that case, you could gather more profit in total in long-run.
The demand continues to rise, suppliers also provide us with various choices, which sometimes confuses us, how do we choose a truly suitable pre-made bag packaging machine?
Here let’s first learn more about the top 3 most popular pre-made bag packing machine, they are:
1）Mini Doypack machine
The mini Doypack machine has only one working position, and it could fully automatic finished whole process of bag giving, bag opening, filling, sealing, etc.
The Max advantage for MINI Doy Pack machine is the unit cost much lower than the other 2 machine. Its disadvantage is speed, the total speed only 5~15bags per min because it has only one working position to complete all process.
2) 8 working Position Rotary Type Premade Pouch Packing Machine
The Rotary Premade Pouch Packing machine has 8 working position, and can add more working position if necessary. It can also fully automatically complete the whole working process, the main structure has shown from below picture, it has round turntable structure. The working flow is the premade pouch will rotate from No.1 working station to No. 8th workstations with the turntable to complete all the process. Each working position finished one process.
Which makes its speed can reach 15~45bags per min. 3 times faster than MINI Doy Pack machine. Of course the unit cost will also much higher than MINI Doypack machine, and it should equip with higher speed weighing or dosing system to ensure high output for the whole system, which cause the total invest cost even higher.
Another disadvantage is the centrifugal force, when Rotary type machine works, it will generated centrifugal force, you’ll have to slow down and maintain smoothly operation when packing heavier products.
3) Horizontal Premade Pouch Packing Machine
The Horizontal Premade Bag Packing Machine apparently adopt horizontal structure. The overall working process: The pouch operate as horizontal direction; workflow is very similar to the Rotary Packaging Machine, shown in below picture.
The Horizontal Premade Pouch Packing Machine is with slightly higher cost than MINI Doypack Machine, but its speed are much faster, much closer to Rotary Type Pre-made Bag packing Machine.
Seems like Horizontal Pre-made Pouch Machine is a compromise option, to better balance your invest, and output.
And horizontal type machine do not has centrifugal force problem. That means, operating with same speed, it can work actually more stable than Rotary type.
One glaring weakness can not be ignored: the horizontal Type has width limit. So it makes the Horizontal type’s filling volume a bit smaller than Rotary type and MINI Doypack machine.
In a word, no one machine is 100% perfect, in some case, one is better, but in other case, it could be bad option.
You should consider all aspects before making your final decision, include but not limited to the following:
- Your product feature: It’s powder, liquid, granular… you may need to choose different weighing/dosing equipment to complete as whole system
- Bag capacity/Size, Each machine and Model has bag capacity and size limited, it’s vital factor to total system and the cost.
- Daily production need and different stage of your business.
- Your factory space: Has space limited or not?
