About TEA PACKAGING MACHINE
A pneumatic cup filler machine is an automated or semi-automatic packaging system that uses compressed air to precisely dispense and seal granular, powder products into pouches. It is widely utilized in the food and pharmaceutical industries for its high accuracy, speed, and hygienic performance.
How It Works
- Volumetric Filling: The machine uses rotating volumetric cups that are adjusted to hold a highly specific volume or weight of the product.
- Pneumatic Power: Compressed air drives the machine's mechanical movements, such as film pulling, sealing jaws, and dispensing nozzles.
- Form-Fill-Seal (FFS): Many pneumatic cup fillers are part of a Vertical Form Fill Seal (VFFS) line, which forms pouches or seals cups directly after filling.
- High Precision: Advanced PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) systems and air pressure ensure filling accuracy of up to 1%.
- Hygienic Design: Because they operate using compressed air rather than complex motor-driven gears, they reduce the risk of lubricant contamination.
- Speed: Depending on the product and cup size, these machines typically output between 1,000 to 2,500 units per hour.
- Quick Changeover: Operators can usually swap out cup sizes or adjust filling volumes in under 20 minutes.
- Granules: Tea, coffee beans, sugar, rice, pulses, and seeds.
- Powders: Spices, detergent, flour, and pharmaceutical powders.
- Snacks: Namkeen, fryums, cornflakes, and popcorn.
