What Are The Differences Of Tube Filling Sealing Machines

Publish Time: 2024-08-06     Origin: Site

Packaging is one of the key points of a product. It not only protects the product but also stimulates the desire to buyer. In a highly competitive market, a well-designed package can attract customers and enhance the value of the product. tube packaging, with its diverse forms and materials, meets the different product characteristics and the aesthetic needs of consumers, and has become an indispensable part of product sales.


According to the characteristics and packaging requirements of different tubes, Immay has developed and produced aluminum tube filling and sealing machines, tube filling and sealing machines, and ultrasonic tube filling and sealing machines. Our tube filling and packing machines can not only adapt to the characteristics of different materials, but also meet the high standards of various sealing processes. Whether it is the sealing of aluminum tubes, the flexibility of plastic tubes, or the composite performance of aluminum-plastic tubes, our equipment can provide perfect solutions. Their production processes are similar, but their working principles are very different.

 

1. Internal heating tube filling and sealing machine

Working principle

The heating plastic tube filling sealing machine generates high-temperature airflow through the built-in hot air gun, which is blown directly to the inner wall of the tube. The high temperature softens the plastic material and begins to melt. At the same time, the outer wall of the tube is quickly cooled by contact with the cooling system, and then forms a solid seal under the action of the crimping die. This control of the temperature difference between the inside and outside not only ensures the firmness of the seal, but also maintains the integrity of the appearance of the tube.

 

Advantages

  • Efficient heating method, suitable for high-speed production environment.

  • Precise temperature control ensures the consistency and quality of the tail seal.

  • Internal and external temperature difference control avoids the problem of excessive softening of plastic or uneven sealing.

  • Adapts to single-color and multi-color plastic tubes and aluminum-plastic tubes, with a wider range of applicability.

 

Application of heating tube filling sealing machine

Applicable to the filling and sealing production requirements of most single-color and colored plastic tubes and aluminum-plastic composite tubes.

  • Cosmetics industry: used for tube packaging of cleansing cream, hand cream, body lotion, massage cream and other products. These products usually require good sealing and beautiful sealing effects.

  • Pharmaceutical industry: suitable for packaging of medical products such as ointments, gels, scar creams, acne creams, etc. These products have strict requirements on sealing and hygiene standards.

  • Food industry: used for tube packaging of condiments and foods such as ketchup, mustard sauce, honey, etc. These products require reliable sealing to maintain freshness and prevent leakage.

  • Personal care products: such as toothpaste, shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, hair dye, etc. These products require packaging that is easy to squeeze and has a firm sealing.

 

2. Aluminum Tube Filling and Sealing Machine

Working principle

The aluminum tube filling and sealing machine uses a mechanical method to seal the tube, and the precise movement of the clamp is controlled by a cam transmission system.

During the sealing process, the tube is fixed in place, and then the tube mouth is folded and pressed by mechanical force to form a seal.

This sealing method can be three-fold or four-fold, which needs to be customized according to the specific needs of the product.

 

Advantages

  • Simple structure, low maintenance cost, suitable for long-term stable operation.

  • High-precision sealing, suitable for products with strict requirements on sealing performance.

  • Mechanical sealing avoids thermal effects and is suitable for packaging metal and sensitive materials.

 

Application of aluminium tube filling sealing machine

Aluminum tubes are widely used in many industries due to their good sealing, corrosion resistance, portability and recyclability.

  • Cosmetics industry: used for hand cream, concealer, primer, nail glue and other products, which often require packaging materials to have excellent sealing properties.

  • Medical field: used for various bioactive preparations, ointments, erythromycin and other pharmaceutical products that need to be strictly isolated from the external environment. Ointments are usually packaged in aluminum tubes, mainly because aluminum tubes provide excellent barrier properties, effectively preventing the penetration of air, moisture and microorganisms, protecting the active ingredients in the ointment from light and the external environment, ensuring the stability of the product and extending the shelf life. At the same time, aluminum tubes have strong sealing properties, are easy to squeeze with one hand, are convenient for patients to use, and are highly recyclable, meeting the requirements of environmental protection and sustainable development. The durability and professional image of aluminum tubes also make them an ideal choice for pharmaceutical products, meeting the strict requirements of the pharmaceutical industry for packaging materials.

  • Daily chemical products: pigments, shoe polish, glass glue, welding agents, fillers, greases, etc. These products may have special requirements for the corrosion resistance and sealing of packaging materials.

 

3. Ultrasonic tube filling and sealing machine

Working principle

The ultrasonic filling and sealing machine uses the high-frequency vibration generated by the ultrasonic generator to transfer the vibration energy to the tube seal through the transducer.

The vibration causes the plastic material at the seal to generate friction heat. When the temperature reaches the melting point of the plastic, the material begins to melt and quickly adheres together to form a seal.

The entire process does not require an external heating source or adhesive and does not require a chiller for cooling.

 

Advantages

  • Environmentally friendly sealing method, no need to use additional chemicals.

  • It has little impact on chemicals and can be sealed normally even in the presence of chemicals.

  • The sealed product has a beautiful appearance, smooth edges and no obvious seams.

 

Application of ultrasonic tube filling sealing machine

It is suitable for filling and packaging requirements of plastic tubes and aluminum-plastic tubes.

  • Daily chemical products: widely used in the packaging of daily necessities such as toothpaste, depilatory cream, massage cream, facial cleanser, etc. These products require fast production and cost-effective sealing solutions.

  • Pharmaceutical industry: suitable for pharmaceutical tube packaging, especially tube large-scale production that are sensitive to production speed and cost.

  • Industrial lubricants: used to encapsulate various lubricating oils, greases, etc. These products require reliable sealing in industrial applications to prevent leakage and contamination.

 

These three different types of tube filling and sealing machines cover a wide range of fields from daily consumer goods to professional medical products, from fast-moving consumer goods to industrial products, providing customized sealing solutions for different industries.

 

4. How to choose a suitable tube filling and sealing machine?

When choosing a tube filling and sealing machine, users may wonder: Which tube filling and sealing machine should I use?

As a manufacturer of hose filling and sealing machines, Generally, IMMAY will confirm the customer's tube material, thickness, filling capacity, output, and automation preference.


If it is an aluminum tube, the speed is required to be 20-40 pieces/minute, we will recommend a semi-automatic aluminum tube filling and sealing machine. If the customer requires a speed of 30-60 pieces/minute or even more, we will recommend an automatic aluminum tube filling and sealing machine.


If it is a plastic tube or aluminum-plastic tube, in addition to the above information, we will also confirm the characteristics of the product contained in the tube and the printing information of the tube. Generally, for tubes containing heat-sensitive raw materials, we recommend the use of ultrasonic tube filling and sealing machines, and for tubes with various colors, we will recommend hot air gun internal heating tube filling and sealing machines according to the characteristics of the tube.
