In the fast-moving consumer goods(FMCG) industries, packaging affects product accessibility, brand influence and cost-effectiveness. A good package can offer convenience and meet the demands of consumers. One of the most common products is shampoo sachets. These single-portion sachets are popular in emerging markets and for on-the-go consumers and merchants who offer trials. In this blog we will discuss about the equipment that can produce these small sachets — Shampoo sachet packing machines, including their working processes and types.
What Is A Shampoo Sachet Packing Machine?
Shampoo sachet packing machine is an automated system including forming, filling and sealing(FFS). It can form small sachets from a roll of laminated films, fill pre-measured shampoos into the formed sachets, and seal and cut the sachets into single-portion formats. According to the production needs of different manufacturers, the sachet machines can produce different package formats, including three-side-seal sachets, four-side-seal sachets, continuous strips, easy-tear sachets.
How Does The Sachet Machine Work?
The workflow of typical shampoo sachet packing machine involves several steps:
Film Feeding – The packaging films (laminated plastic, usually printed with brand patterns) are fed to forming structure from a roll.
Sachet Forming – Flat materials are formed into sachet shapes. Some sachet machines will be built with multiple filling lanes to improve production output.
Sachet Filling – Pre-measured shampoos will be dispensed into each formed sachets. This motion will be completed by servo piston pumps or auger fillers. The measuring system will differ depending on different products.
Sachet Sealing – Heat sealing components will seal the sachets to prevent leakage and ensure hygiene.
Cutting And Finishing – The sealed sachets will be cut into individual units or strips, ready for packaging into cartons or pouches.
