Product Features

The Packmate Multi-Lane Stick Pack System is engineered with a focus on performance, hygiene, and user-centric operation. Its advanced features ensure seamless integration into high-demand production environments.

• High-Speed Multi-Lane Operation: Engineered with multiple parallel lanes, the system significantly boosts output compared to traditional single-lane machines, making it perfect for meeting large-scale production targets and tight deadlines.
• Fully Automated PLC Control: The complete packaging cycle—including film unwinding, forming, filling, sealing, cutting, and counting—is fully automated. An intuitive PLC-based touchscreen interface allows for easy operation, recipe storage, quick changeovers, and real-time monitoring of all production parameters.
• Precision Dosing Technology: Equipped with highly accurate auger fillers or volumetric cup dispensers, the system guarantees each stick pack receives the exact pre-set weight or volume, ensuring product consistency and reducing costly overfilling.
• Robust & Hygienic Construction: Critical components are constructed from food-grade stainless steel (SUS304/316), ensuring long-term durability, corrosion resistance, and full compliance with international food safety standards such as FDA and CE.
• Integrated Nitrogen Flushing Option: An optional inline nitrogen gas flushing system displaces oxygen within the sealed packet, dramatically extending product shelf life by preventing oxidation and preserving flavor, aroma, and nutritional value.
• Rapid Changeover & Flexibility: Designed for minimal downtime, the system allows for quick tooling and format changes, enabling fast transitions between different product types, stick pack sizes, and packaging materials.
• Comprehensive Quality Assurance: Built-in detection systems continuously monitor for no-bag/no-fill errors, sealing integrity, and dosing accuracy, automatically rejecting any non-conforming packets to ensure 100% output quality.
