In today's manufacturing industry, automated liquid bagging and packaging machines play an indispensable role. From food to medicine to the beauty industry, accurate and efficient liquid packaging machines are the key to ensuring product quality and production efficiency. For liquid products of different viscosities, how to choose suitable packaging equipment to improve the production process has become a common challenge faced by many companies.

1. Characteristics of various viscosity liquids

Low viscosity liquids are easy to flow: such as water, alcohol, etc., which are prone to splashing or foaming during filling. Fast filling speed: Due to low resistance, high flow rate filling can be used, requiring the equipment to have fast filling capabilities.

Medium viscosity liquids have certain resistance: such as detergents, motor oil, juice, etc., which require a certain amount of pressure to start and maintain flow. Wire drawing occurs: liquid filaments may be formed during the filling process, affecting the neatness of the packaging.

High viscosity liquids flow slowly: such as honey, sauces, and some industrial lubricants, which are difficult to flow quickly even under external forces. Sensitive to temperature: The fluidity of some high-viscosity liquids will change significantly with temperature changes, and heating or insulation is required to improve their fluidity.

2. Strategies to deal with these characteristics

Use diversified metering pumps

In order to adapt to liquids of different viscosities, automated liquid bagging and packaging machines are usually equipped with multiple types of metering pumps to achieve the best filling effect.

Reciprocating metering pump

Applicable: Suitable for medium and high viscosity liquids.

Features: Liquid suction and discharge are achieved through the reciprocating motion of the piston, which can handle high viscosity liquids, and the metering can be accurately controlled by adjusting the piston stroke.

Hose squeeze metering pump

Applicable: Especially suitable for low to medium viscosity liquids.

Features: The roller squeezes the hose to push the liquid to avoid direct contact between the liquid and the pump, which is very suitable for occasions with strict hygiene requirements.

Ceramic metering pump

Applicable: Liquid products containing tiny particles, liquid products with low and medium viscosities.

Features: The part in contact with the liquid is made of ceramic, which has strong chemical corrosion resistance, high precision, good corrosion resistance, and more convenient adjustment method (can be operated through the touch screen).

Rotary gear metering pump

Applicable: Suitable for high-viscosity liquids.

Features: Two meshing gears rotate, and the flow rate is controlled by changing the gear gap. It is suitable for products with high viscosity and large filling volume.

The reason why the automated liquid bagging and packaging machine can adapt to liquids of different viscosities is that it uses a variety of metering pumps to meet the filling needs of different products.

With the continuous innovation of technology, the future automated liquid bagging and packaging machines will be more intelligent and adaptive. Using Internet of Things technology for equipment monitoring and predictive maintenance, and using artificial intelligence algorithms to automatically adjust filling parameters to adapt to different product viscosities are important technologies to solve existing problems and improve performance.

Through continuous technological innovation and in-depth understanding of customer needs, the automated liquid bagging and packaging machine will continue to be an important equipment to ensure production efficiency and product quality
