High-speed pasta packaging system
In the pasta production industry, maintaining uniform packaging quality and speed is critical. Long cut pasta, like spaghetti, poses specific challenges due to its shape and fragility, making consistent packaging a tough task to accomplish efficiently.
Manage packaging speed and quality effectively
The GEA H-Packer SO is a high-speed packaging system designed specifically for long cut pasta. Managed entirely by brushless motors, it features double dosers with a weighing unit and volumetric finishing system for precise weight control. The adjustable feeding channels handle various pasta formats. The horizontal packaging machine includes an automatic film splicing device operated through PLC and motion control boards. Its patented stripping sealing jaws minimize scraps in the sealing area, enhancing bag quality. These jaws, controlled by an independent brushless motor, can switch between traditional MCR operation and a stripping action to clean the seal area before sealing. This makes it ideal for producing high-quality bags without pasta scraps in the seals. Packaging speeds reach up to 120 bags per minute with MCR sealing jaws and 100 per minute with stripping sealing jaws.
