    8.What Types Of Vertical Packaging Machine Are There?

    Types of vertical packaging machines are classified according to the machine automation, packaging method, material and mechanical structure. The types of vertical packaging machine according to its classifications are

    According to Machine Automation

    Semi-Automatic Vertical Packaging Machine

    Semi-Automatic Vertical Packaging Machine

    A semi-automatic vertical packaging machine involves both manual and automatic operations. Filling of material is done by the operator and also he is responsible for placement of bags or pouches. Filling and sealing process is done by machine. These machines are ideal for small and medium scale industries where average speed in productivity is required. Machine can be placed anywhere and are highly durable.

    Fully Automatic Vertical Packaging Machine

    Semi-Automatic Vertical Packaging Machine-1

    The third type of vertical packaging machine with respect to automation is a fully automatic vertical packaging machine. Here all the processes from feeding of film roll and material to final packaging, all are performed by the machine itself. No human interface is required during the operation of a fully automatic vertical packaging machine. A large scale industry where the production volume is too high uses a fully automatic vertical packaging machine.

    According to Machine Mechanical Structure

    Continuous Vertical Packaging Machine

    Continuous Vertical Packaging Machine

    The pitch of film feeding unit is followed properly in a continuous vertical packaging machine and it does not breaks the pitch during any instance of operation. The machine maintains its pitch by forming upward and downward movement of sealing unit and inserts uniform material in it. High speed and efficient packaging is achieved by this type of machine.

    Intermittent Vertical Packaging Machine

    Intermittent Vertical Packaging Machine

    The process in this of packaging machine is terminated in between when the top and bottom side of the bag or pouch gets sealed. The machines separately seal both sides and due to this the feeding of film roll gets effected. Intermittent vertical packaging machine is not suitable for industries where high speed production is requires. They are ideal for low and medium level manufacturing plants.

    According to Filling Material

    Powder Vertical Packaging Machine

    Powder Vertical Packaging Machine

    The powder formed material is filled and packed in a particular type of vertical packaging machine that is called as powder vertical packaging machine. The machine can easily pack different types of powders in a single bag and are highly efficient in multitasking. A production of 20 to 100 bags in a minute can be achieved by powder vertical packaging machine.

    Paste Vertical Packaging Machine

    Paste Vertical Packaging Machine

    Paste materials mostly present in chemical and medical industries are packed using a paste vertical packaging machine. These machines are suitable of medium scale industries where the production requirements lie in between 10 to 60 tubes per minute. But weight of the product should remain under 1 kg when it comes to the packaging of paste material.

    Granule Vertical Packaging Machine

    Granule Vertical Packaging Machine

    Granular material is sealed and packed with the help of granule vertical packaging machine. As heavy weight granules are difficult to pack by using traditional machines. Material is filled in the hopper lid and then passed to the system. 25 to 80 bags of granular can be packed using a granular vertical packaging machine.

    Liquid Vertical Packaging Machine

    Liquid Vertical Packaging Machine

    Another type of vertical packaging machine is liquid vertical packaging machine that packs material that is liquid in nature. 10 to 30 bags of weight around 500 kg are packed using this type of machine. Chemical, food, pharmaceutical and agricultural liquid materials are ideally packed using a liquid vertical packaging machine.

    9.What Are The Differences Between A Vertical And A Horizontal Packaging Machine?

    Differences Between

    Both types of packaging machines either vertical or horizontal are used for common purpose. The movement of packaging material in the system is one of the major differences in both type of packaging machines. The areas where both the machines are distinguished are

    Working Method

    The most common differences in both type of packaging machines is in there working methods. In a vertical packaging machine the film roll is fed over a plough with a much greater force due to the structure of machine.

    Whereas in a horizontal packaging machine the same film rolled is in series with the system. This is why the roll is pulled through the machine with much minimum force and effort. This also allows less material damage in a horizontal packaging machine.

    Packaging Products

    The second difference in between a vertical and a horizontal packaging machine is the filling of packaging product. In a vertical packaging machine the bag or pouch is hold from its two sides whereas all the remaining sides remain closed. This blocks 100% filling of material and leaves small spaces in the bag.

    In a horizontal packaging machine, all the sides are closed and only the filling side remains open. Due to this complete 100% space of the bag gets utilized and no vacant spaces are left. Horizontal packaging machine in this regard is more efficient as compare to vertical one.

    Filling Process

    A vertical packaging machine only seals and packs the material in its initial stage. Re heating, cooling and heating processes are carried in a single cycle in further steps.

    Whereas in a horizontal packaging machine; all the processes are aligned in a single line. Initially the sealing is followed by the packaging process and the preheating, heating and cooling cycles are performed separately in different steps.

    Automation

    Both the machines are available in all manual, semi-automatic and fully automatic types and are used according to their application.

    10.What Are The Common Errors That Are Faced In A Vertical Packaging Machine And How Are They Rectified?

    Common Errors

    Some of the problems that occur in vertical packaging machines and their remedies are

    S.NO Problem Cause Remedy
