What is Vertical Granule Packing Machine?
Vertical Granule Packing Machine is an automated packaging equipment designed for granular materials (such as rice, nuts, candy, fertilizer, pet food, etc.). The equipment integrates multiple processes such as automatic metering, bag making, filling, sealing, and bag cutting, greatly improving packaging efficiency and consistency.
Common Vertical Granule Packing Machine models include 320, 420, 520, 720, etc., where the model number mostly refers to the upper limit of the finished bag width (mm). The output corresponding to different models ranges from 30 to 70 bags per minute, which can meet the production needs of different scales. In terms of price, the basic equipment is about $4,000-$6,000, and the mid-to-high-end models with weighing combination scales or multi-function modules are between $10,000-$20,000.

What are the structural advantages of Vertical Granule Packing Machine?
Vertical Granule Packing Machine has the advantages of compact structure, stable operation, strong functional integration, beautiful sealing, easy maintenance, easy cleaning, and is widely applicable to automated packaging in multiple industries. The following are the main advantages:
Compact structure and small footprint: The vertical design layout is reasonable, saving space, especially suitable for small and medium-sized factories and production environments with limited space.
Gravity feeding and stable operation: The vertical film walking is combined with the natural falling path of the material, making the packaging process smoother and effectively reducing operational problems such as blocking and bag jams.
Strong functional integration: The vertical structure is convenient for integrating automatic weighing, coding, bag making, sealing, bag cutting and other modules to achieve continuous and rapid packaging operations.
The bag shape is crisp and the sealing is beautiful: The vertical forming mechanism makes the packaging bag shape more unified and the sealing is flat, which improves the consistency of product appearance and enhances market competitiveness.
Easy to maintain and clean: The structure is clear, the key parts are easy to inspect, which is convenient for daily cleaning and maintenance, reducing downtime and maintenance costs.
Widely applicable industries: especially suitable for industries such as food, daily chemicals, and medicine that have high requirements for cleanliness and packaging consistency, and have become an important part of the intelligent packaging system.
Vertical Granule Packing Machine Packaging Process
The packaging process of the Vertical Granule Packing Machine mainly includes six steps: feeding, bag making, metering and filling, horizontal sealing and cutting, finished product output, and detection and adjustment to realize the automatic packaging of granular materials.
Feeding: Granular materials are poured into the storage hopper through a hoist or manually, and the vibrating screen or stirring device ensures uniform feeding.
Bag making: The packaging film roll is unrolled, folded into a vertical cylinder by the former, and the longitudinal sealing device heat-seals the back seam.
Measuring and filling: The quantitative particles are poured into the formed bag through screw metering or measuring cup volumetric metering.
Horizontal sealing and cutting: The horizontal sealing device heat-seals and cuts the bag mouth to form an independent packaging bag.
Finished product output: The packaging bag is sent out through the conveyor belt, and the manual or robot stacking and collection.
Detection and adjustment: The photoelectric sensor monitors the positioning of the mark, and automatically stops and adjusts when abnormal to ensure packaging accuracy.
