What is Multihead Packaging Machine?

Multihead Packaging Machine is a high-precision, high-speed automated weighing and packaging equipment. Its principle is that multiple weighing heads (usually 10, 14 or 20 heads) operate simultaneously to quickly combine materials close to the target weight, and then the equipment below automatically packages and seals them. Its advantages include high speed, high precision, low loss, and can greatly improve production line efficiency. Typical output can reach 30-80 bags/minute, depending on material characteristics and bag structure. The main technical parameters include weighing range 10-1000 grams, accuracy ±0.5-1.5 grams, compatible bag width 50-200mm, etc. In terms of price, entry-level equipment is about $8,000-$12,000, and mid-to-high-end models can cost up to $15,000-$30,000, depending on the configuration.

What are the advantages of Multihead Packaging Machine?

Multihead Packaging Machine has the advantages of high efficiency, precision, labor saving, traceability, and easy maintenance, as follows:

High precision and high efficiency: The multi-head weighing system quickly matches the target weight through parallel calculation, avoiding the repeated trial and error of traditional single-head scales, and improving efficiency by 3-5 times. For example, the coffee bean packaging speed can reach 80 bags/minute, and the error rate is less than 0.5%.

Reduced labor costs: The automated process reduces manual intervention, and only 1-2 operators are required per shift, saving 50% of manpower compared to traditional packaging lines.

Data traceability: The built-in production record system can export data such as weight and speed of each batch, which meets the HACCP standards of the food industry.

Easy maintenance design: The modular structure supports the rapid replacement of weighing units or hoppers, and the maintenance time is shortened to 1/3 of traditional equipment.

Price of Multihead Packaging Machine

The price of Multihead Packaging Machine varies according to configuration, number of weighing heads, degree of automation integration, production requirements and brand:

Economical 10-head equipment: about $8,000 – $12,000, suitable for small factories with low production, speed of about 30-50 packages/minute;

Standard 14-head equipment: about $13,000 – $18,000, suitable for medium production capacity requirements, speed up to 60 packages/minute;

High-end 20-head equipment (with waterproof design and quick release structure): about $20,000 – $30,000, suitable for high-production lines, speed up to 80 packages/minute;

With whole-line linkage function (such as automatic feeding, coding, metal inspection, etc.): the full set price is about $35,000 – $50,000, supporting large-scale continuous production.

It is recommended to customize the configuration based on the expected output and production process requirements to obtain the best cost-effectiveness.

Application scenarios of Multihead Packaging Machine

Multihead Packaging Machine is widely used in many industries such as food, daily chemicals, medicine, hardware, etc., and is particularly suitable for quantitative packaging of the following materials:

Food industry: such as potato chips, popcorn, candy, biscuits, melon seeds, chocolate, dried fruits, etc.

Frozen products: such as frozen dumplings, quick-frozen meatballs, fish nuggets, etc.

Non-food industry: automatic packaging of small items such as pills, screws, plastic parts, toy accessories, etc.

Its highly flexible structure and combination logic make it an indispensable and efficient packaging tool on modern production lines.
