In the CBD and nutraceutical markets, accuracy and documentation are not optional. Our packing line is engineered to provide complete control over the entire packaging process, ensuring both product integrity and regulatory peace of mind.

• Accurate Counting by Weight: Instead of slow optical counters, this system uses a high-precision multihead weigher. Since your gummies have a consistent individual weight, the weigher can calculate the exact piece count at very high speeds. It weighs out the target amount corresponding to, for example, 30 gummies, and dispenses the group into the jar. This method is fast, reliable, and easily adjustable for different count requirements, ensuring customers always get the correct number of pieces.
• Complete, Unattended Automation: This is a true turnkey solution. It starts with a bottle unscrambler that feeds empty jars onto the conveyor. From there, the line handles every step automatically: counting and filling, placing and sealing an aluminum foil liner for freshness and tamper evidence, tightening the cap, and applying a pressure-sensitive label. This full automation minimizes manual handling, reduces contamination risks, and allows your staff to focus on other critical tasks.
• High-Speed, Scalable Production: The system is designed for growth, with an operational speed of 30 to 120 bottles per minute. The exact speed depends on the number of gummies per bottle and the jar size. This flexibility allows you to start with a moderate output and scale up as your demand increases, without needing to invest in a completely new line.
• Integrated Traceability System: Every bottle can be tracked. The line integrates a printer (like a thermal inkjet) to apply unique batch numbers, serial numbers, and expiration dates. This data can be linked to a central system, allowing you to log and report on every production run. This is essential for meeting cGMP (Current Good Manufacturing Practice) standards and for managing any potential product recalls efficiently.

Making the right investment requires clear answers to critical questions. These detailed explanations clarify how our machine solves the unique challenges of packaging in the highly regulated CBD and nutraceutical industries.

Q1: Why is “counting” better than just “weighing” for CBD or vitamin gummies?
A1: While the final bottle is often sold by net weight, regulations and consumer expectations are based on the number of doses or pieces. Individual gummies can have slight weight variations. Relying solely on weight could lead to some bottles having 29 pieces and others 31. Our system counts by weight, which is a highly accurate method for uniform pieces, ensuring every single bottle has the exact advertised piece count. This is critical for dosage accuracy and customer trust.

Q2: How accurate is the counting method for gummies of different colors or shapes?
A2: Our counting-by-weight method is unaffected by color or minor shape variations, which is a major advantage over optical counters that can struggle with transparent or multi-colored products. As long as the average piece weight is consistent, the system remains highly accurate. Before a production run, you simply calibrate the machine by telling it the average weight of one gummy, and it handles the rest.

Q3: What are the compliance benefits of foil seals and tamper-evident caps?
A3: These are essential for product safety and regulatory compliance. The induction-sealed aluminum foil provides an airtight barrier that protects the gummies from moisture and oxygen, preserving freshness and potency. The tamper-evident cap (like a breakaway ring) provides a clear visual indication to the consumer if the bottle has been opened. Together, these features meet federal requirements for OTC (Over-the-Counter) products and build consumer confidence in your brand’s safety standards.

Q4: How does the machine connect to our ERP or traceability software?
A4: The system is designed for modern data integration. The central controller can be equipped with an interface that outputs production data, such as batch numbers, serial numbers, and timestamps, in standard formats like CSV or through a direct database connection (SQL/API). This allows you to seamlessly link the packaging line to your existing Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) or quality management software for real-time monitoring and comprehensive record-keeping.

Q5: How do you manage cleaning and prevent cross-contamination between different products?
A5: The machine is designed for easy cleaning to comply with cGMP standards. All product contact parts, like the weigher buckets and funnels, are made from food-grade stainless steel and can be removed quickly without tools for thorough washing. The smooth surfaces and open design minimize areas where product residue can accumulate. This allows for fast and effective cleaning protocols when switching between different flavors or formulations, preventing cross-contamination.
