Core Features
High-Accuracy Weighing for Lightweight Snacks: The 14-head weigher is precisely calibrated for lightweight products like chips and puffs. This extreme accuracy minimizes product giveaway, stopping you from overfilling bags and saving you money on every package.
Reliable Sealing for Seasoned Products: A servo-driven sealing system maintains perfectly stable temperatures. This ensures strong, consistent seals even when oily seasonings get into the seal area, preventing open bags and protecting product freshness.
Fast Changeovers for Multiple SKUs: Switch between different snack flavors or bag sizes in minutes. The quick-change design for the forming tube dramatically reduces downtime, keeping your production line running efficiently.
Optional Nitrogen Filling for Freshness and Protection: Add a nitrogen gas flush system to extend shelf life. This process pushes out oxygen to keep snacks crisp and fresh for longer. It also creates a cushion inside the bag, protecting fragile products like potato chips from breaking during shipping.
Gentle Handling to Prevent Breakage: The machine is designed with a hygienic, open frame and smooth contact surfaces. This gentle product path minimizes drops and impact, significantly reducing breakage of delicate extruded snacks.
Open Frame for Easy Cleaning and Maintenance: The accessible, open-frame construction leaves no place for crumbs or seasoning to hide. This makes sanitation fast and thorough, which is essential for food safety and preventing flavor cross-contamination between runs.
FAQ
Q1: How does the machine prevent fragile snacks like chips from breaking at such high speeds? A1: The system is optimized for gentle handling. The integrated weigher uses controlled, low-impact drops. The machine’s programming synchronizes the product drop with the bagger’s movement, minimizing the falling distance and protecting your fragile snacks from damage.
Q2: Is it difficult to manage two lanes at once? What if one lane has a problem? A2: It is very easy to manage. The central PLC touch screen controls both lanes. If a problem occurs on one side (like the film running out), you can pause that lane independently while the other continues to run. This smart design minimizes downtime.
Q3: How do you clean the machine when switching between snacks with different seasonings? A3: Cleaning is fast and simple. All parts that touch the product are made from food-grade stainless steel and can be removed without tools. This allows for quick and thorough cleaning to prevent flavor transfer between different snack runs.
