Automatic packing machine RD-SPM-480

continuousfilmvertical

Overview
Three-side sealed sachet packing machine RD-SPM-480 is a vertical form-fill-seal (VFFS) system engineered for high-speed multi-column sachet and stick packaging. The 6-lane configuration is presented as an example; scalable multi-line variants (10–16 lanes) are available. The machine handles powders, granules and liquids with servo-driven motion control and compact vertical footprint suited to pharmaceutical, food, cosmetic and chemical production.

Key applications

• Food & Beverage: single-serve coffee sticks, spice sachets, sugar packets.
• Pharmaceuticals: powdered medicine doses, electrolyte supplements.
• Chemicals: detergent samples, agrochemical stick packs.
• Cosmetics: single-dose powder portions for skincare and haircare.

Product summary
Multi-column VFFS sachet/stick packing machine with servo controls and auger or volumetric dosing for high-precision filling. Documented accuracy claims include ±0.2 g and, for specific configurations, ±0.1% dosing accuracy. Stated throughput examples reach up to 240 sticks/minute depending on lane count and product properties. Model example RD-SPM-480 denotes a 6-lane setup; larger synchronized lane arrays are offered for higher output.

Specification (text highlights)
Hygienic design: IP65 stainless-steel construction, GMP/FDA compliance references.
Tooling & format range: quick-change tooling supports 20+ stick sizes (10×50 mm to 25×200 mm).
Energy: up to 30% lower compressed-air consumption versus traditional stick-pack machines.

Main features and process flow

• Film handling & forming: roll-fed laminated film formed into vertical tubes across multiple lanes using forming collars and thermoforming jaws.
• Precision filling: servo-driven screw/auger fillers dispense 0.5 ml–50 ml with anti-clogging measures for sticky powders.
• Sealing & cutting: longitudinal and transverse seals create hermetic sachets; integrated cutters (hot knife, serrated or cold cut) separate units.
• Output sorting: finished sachets ejected to trays or conveyors with vision-guided alignment for downstream processing.
• Optional: high-resolution print registration, coding (thermal transfer, inkjet) and vision inspection.

Main parts (as listed)

• Film unwind and tension control
• Forming station / collar
• Servo feeder / servo-driven auger fillers
• Sealing station (longitudinal & transverse)
• Servo cutter
• PLC control (Siemens PLC referenced) and vision/registration sensors

Advantages

• Continuous roll-film operation reduces stops compared with pre-made pouch lines.
• Flexible pouch formats: supports 3-side and 4-side seals with tooling changes.
• Wide film compatibility: PET/PE, OPP/CPP, Alu/PE and laminated films.
• Broad product range: powders, granules, liquids, pastes and solids.
• High automation: integrates forming, filling, sealing, coding, cutting and discharge for easy integration with upstream/downstream equipment.

Limitations

• Not ideal for very long, heavy, fragile or highly irregular items that may jam during forming or filling.
• Format changeover requires forming collar replacement and trained operators.
• Higher initial investment than manual or semi-automatic solutions.
• Performance depends on consistent film quality and accurate registration.
