Mineral Packing Equipment

The essence of the oceans plays a role in sustainable food production and is an often overlooked superfood. Compared to traditional crops, algae requires minimal land and resources. Processed into food powders like spirulina or chlorella or into seaweed snacks, algae is considered to be one of the foods of the future. It provides you with vitamins, minerals, and proteins and assists the world in food security concerns. It is a popular ingredient in the supplement and cosmetics industry too.

Bentonite is a clay derived from the alteration of volcanic ash. Bentonite is solid, so after extracting it from the deposits, it has to be crushed and dried to reduce its moisture content up to 15%.

Bentonite

Calcium carbonate makes up almost one-twentieth of the earth’s crust. But the abundant mineral is found in many living things, including the human body. However, processing calcium carbonate extracts the multi-purpose material from inorganic sediments, namely limestone, chalk, and marble.

Gypsum is a naturally occurring mineral that serves many purposes, with the United States producing the largest crude gypsum in the world. Cover walls, ceilings, plasters, fertilizers, cosmetics and some foods: gypsum’s vast applications granted it the recognition of "wonder mineral". Gypsum making equipment helps in making gypsum powder or board for industrial use.

Gypsum

Kaolin, also called china clay, is made from natural rock composed of aluminosilicate clay or kaolinite. Kaolin has wide applications in different industries. Moreover, their classification depends on their industrial use, which includes film formation, fiber extension, polymer extension and chemical composition. Choose a kaolin processing machine to help you make kaolin for beauty products, paper filler, coating, ceramics and even medicine.

Although popularized recently by NASA this superfood powder made of algae is not a recent discovery. The Aztecs in Mexico and communities around Lake Chad in Africa are known to have harvested and eaten spirulina as a traditional food source. It contains an impressive array of essential nutrients, including complete proteins, vitamins, minerals, such as iron and magnesium, and antioxidants.

Industrial Packaging Equipment

At last, you reached the final stage of processing your product - welcome to the packing world! Packing preserves and protects a product from damage, spoilage, and contamination while it makes its way from the production line to the consumer or further production. Depending on which industry your products belong to, the type of primary packaging equipment can change drastically. You need to pay careful attention to products with chemicals or hazardous substances since they can be potentially dangerous to human health.

Ceramics are defined as inorganic and non-metallic materials. Tthey are typically brittle, hard, and elastic as well as resistant to heat and corrosion; in fact, after shaping them into the desired shape, they are heated in an oven called kiln at very high temperatures (1,000 °C to 1,600 °C). Kaolinite and aluminum oxide are the best-known examples of ceramics.

Ceramics

We carry dozens of metals around every day. The ubiquitous smartphone is built with no less than 20 metals, each with specific behaviors and purposes. Metals are a pervasive class of materials that have defined entire eras of human development. It is no exaggeration to say that metal processing equipment is the core of our metallic world. But, paradoxically, this manufacturing technology itself is mainly made of metal.

The nearly 5,000 known minerals on earth share some characteristics to be classified as minerals – they are inorganic, solid, naturally occurring elements and have a particular chemical formula and an ordered internal geometric structure. However, minerals are not all the same. One way to divide them is based on their physical characteristics such as hardness, luster, color, and shape. For example, the diamonds we use to make jewelry are very hard minerals while talc is a soft mineral; gold is a shiny mineral while others are less so.

Packaging

Continuous

Bagging is the process of packaging measured portions of a product into bags that protect it from spoilage, enable easy and safe transportation, and secure the product against tampering and pilferage. The choice of bagging equipment depends on the desired mass or volume per bag, the flow characteristics of the product, and bag construction and design. Bags vary in size from small sachets to bulk flexible containers. Bagging systems are often the last processing step that is generally integrated into a production line.

Cocoa minus its fats makes cocoa powder. Deriving this culinary element follows a careful process of roasting and winnowing cocoa beans before the nibs are ground, generating a liquor. The butter that results from melting fats is removed to leave the ingredient that defines recipes from brownies to a Frostbite cocktail.

Cocoa powder

Food powder is the result of drying and pulverizing food. It has been around since the astronauts when out to space. Fruits have a short shelf life and are difficult to preserve due to their high water content.  Fruit powder processing allows you to keep the nutrients of the fruits for a longer time, even off-season.

Fruit powder

Powder detergent is one of the most widespread washing solutions used in the laundry of fabrics. Since they contain no water, powder detergents are lighter than liquid detergent or pods, which results in cheaper transport and, thus, a more affordable choice for the end consumer. Although manufacturers can formulate their powder detergents differently, the detergent powder production process relies on a combination of builders, surfactants, and enzymes.

Powder detergent

It took the scientific community almost 70 years to agree on the name ‘protein’ and discard the popular alternative, proteid. But protein powder processing still needed another five decades to be commercialized in the 1950s. Once extraction and purification could be industrialized, protein powder soon became a basic staple supplement.

Bag filling equipment is a crucial component in many industries where products need to be packaged efficiently and quickly. Whether you're filling bags with powder, granules, or other materials, automated bag fillers can streamline the process and save time and labor costs. Bag fillers often come with additional features, such as stickers or other labeling equipment, to add branding or product information to the bags. This can save time and money by eliminating the need for separate labeling equipment.

Bag Filling

Form, fill, and seal machines complete the packaging, filling, and sealing in one continuous process and eliminate the need for three separate machines. Most form, fill and seal systems use flexible films to form the primary package. Vertical machines are simpler and faster whereas horizontal systems are better suited to the packaging of solid products that do not flow well. Form, fill, and seal machines are widely used in the food industry for packaging snack foods, powdered products, liquids, and pastes and in the pharmaceutical industry for the production of IV bags, powder sachets, and stick packs.

Due to their potential hazardous nature, chemicals are classified for proper identification and safety during production. Chemical classification depends on their properties, structures and functions. In the chemical industry, you can regard them as basic chemicals such as acids, chemical products to produce plastic materials and finished chemicals for use in cosmetology. As a manufacturer or engineer, you want to know their reactivity when using chemical processing equipment.

Cocoa production and the cocoa industry uses industrial processing technology to process and manufacture high quality cocoa products in many different forms. Did you know that cacao cultivation goes back centuries - to be specific, about 5300 years? This plant, with its long history, is also known for its versatile usage. From cocoa nips to cocoa butter, cocoa becomes a base to produce multiple products, ranging from food products to cosmetics. As you may already know, chocolate products are all made from cocoa as well. Hence, depending on what you intend to produce as the end product, as well as your recipe, your cocoa processing equipment line may change.

Our food chain starts in the soil, growing crops and livestock. But between the fields and the stores, there is a line of industrial food processing equipment. Processes may be as minimalistic as cleaning fruit and as complex as homogenizing milk alternatives made from pressed legumes. In each case, processing technology is an important link in the food production chain.

The building blocks of matter have driven the imagination of philosophers, scientists, and artists for millennia. But, for manufacturers, these elements have a more concrete existence as powders. Powder processing technology conditions these primary materials to create a vast range of products, from chemicals and foods to pharmaceuticals and ceramics.

Around 1860, American businessman James Spratt made dog biscuits by mixing vegetables, flour, beetroot, and meat. His novel idea came after he noticed dogs eating leftover biscuits from ships in England. Following the commercial success in Britain, he started production in America, and it didn’t take long before others developed their own baked pet food formulas. But the need for more palatability led to experiments beyond the oven. In 1956, extruded dry pet food production made its splash on the market.

Phosphorous is literally at the root of the food industry. An essential ingredient in agriculture, it contributes to plant seed formation and root development. But farmers do not simply give their soil a dose of the chemical element. Instead, phosphorous fertilizer processing equipment blends it with other materials to manufacture effective formulas.

Phosphorus fertilizer

Sugar is the fuel that drives photosynthesis in plants. The leafy organisms constantly convert water and carbon dioxide into glucose. But it takes manufacturers specialized sugar processing technology to extract the sweet crystals from them. Today, most sugar products are derived either from sugarcane or sugar beet.

Sugar

Extracting sugar from beets became popular in continental Europe during the Napoleonic Wars due to the British blockades of cane sugar. This is thanks to the high sugar content derived from this crop. Also known by its scientific name, "beta vulgaris", The beets’ popularity steadily rose afterwards and today, 20% of all sugar in the world comes from beets. But all of this can't be possible without its seeds. The production and processing of sugar beet seeds includes different steps such as cleaning, priming, pelleting and coating.

Cashews come from a tropical tree native to Central America. They have become prominent and your nut mix will not be complete without them. The cashew processing method involves roasting, shell drying, peeling, grading, fumigation and packaging. You have to conduct these processing methods with care to obtain quality cashew nuts. In order to achieve this, you'll need the appropriate machinery for your cashew processing plant.

Cashews

Fruit dehydration is the earliest form of food preservation, with the earliest written record of dried fruits dating back to ancient Mesopotamian tablets, which contain the world’s earliest known recipes. Today, some of the most popular dried fruit snacks are raisins, dates, mango, pineapple, prunes, figs and apricots. Dried fruit processing equipment helps preserve the nutrients and sweetness of the fruit and prolongs its shelf life.

Dried fruit

Do you know that the famous classical music composer and pianist Ludwig van Beethoven insisted on drinking a cup of coffee made from exactly 60 pieces of coffee beans? Currently, around 50% of the world’s green coffee beans undergo processing through instant coffee manufacturing equipment to produce instant coffee. The process requires roasting, grinding, brewing, and heating to obtain the extract; the coffee extract will either go through a spray drying process or a freeze-drying process.

Instant coffee

Peanut, which (ironically) is a legume, is the make-or-break ingredient of your mixed nuts manufacturing process. “Deluxe” packs tend to avoid them, as their price is much more affordable than other nuts, therefore not being premium. For a regular mix, on the other hand, peanuts can be the major ingredient you’ll include.

Mixed nuts

Growing populations and intensive farming in the last centuries reduced soil nitrate levels. Aware of the risks to food security, chemists Fritz Haber and Carl Bosch developed a way to industrialize synthetic nitrogen fertilizer production. They created the Haber-Bosch process for ammonia synthesis which is still used today. Manufacturers produce over a hundred million metric tons of nitrogenous fertilizers every year.

Nitrogen fertilizer

After pasteurizing and homogenizing the raw milk, you need to ferment the milk with starter culture until solid curds and liquid whey is formed. Then, the liquid whey goes through a filtration and drying process to turn it into powder. Before sending it to packaging, flavorings are usually added.

Whey protein

Peanuts, also known as groundnuts are one of the most popular edible seeds in the world. You can eat them as-is or process them further into on-the-shelf products like peanut butter, oil, snacks, and soups. Depending on what you want to make, some peanut manufacturing processes include roasting, frying, boiling, grinding, pressing, and coating the peanuts.

In the feed sector, it's common to talk about feed as balanced, compound, or concentrate. Many people use one of these terms to refer to any feed mill product. However, the processing of feed concentrates, only requires grinding and mixing. The further transformation into pellets adds is an added value for the market.

Feed concentrates

As the worldwide demand for power keeps growing, the energy sector is diversifying its mix of sources. Pellet fuel offers a fossil-free alternative suitable for industrial and domestic sectors. But turning raw biomass, into pellets that comply with standards is a specialized process. Pellet fuel manufacturing equipment combines materials and additives to produce pellets of uniform size, density, and moisture content.

Pellet fuel

Building a fire with wood sticks and logs is one of the most wholesome experiences. But it would take a lot of trees to heat up our homes. Instead, the fire-stoking power of plant material can be concentrated in a wood pellet, boosting its burning efficiency. However, wood pellet making equipment and machinery involves more than just the compaction of sawdust. Processing high-quality pellets from biomass can be as intricate as loading a fire-lay.

Organic fertilizer production has ancient roots, tracing its origins to ancient farmers who used natural materials like animal manure, compost, and crop residues to improve soil fertility. This sustainable tradition of repurposing organic waste for agricultural benefits has endured through the ages, handed down from one generation of farmers to the next. Producing organic fertilizer industrially involves a series of steps such as extraction, granulation, drying, and employs a combination of organic fertilizer production equipment.

Only about 6% of the soy produced globally is directly consumed by humans, typically as edamame beans, tofu, or soy milk.  More than three-fourths of global soy production goes to animal feed. The rest is processed by soybean meal technology into oils or used for biofuels and other industrial processes.

Smart design for easy maintenance

Stretch wrappers enclose a single or multiple product units in one or more layers of plastic wrapping film for the purpose of protecting, sealing, or consolidating the product. Choosing the right equipment depends on the type of product, the primary product packaging, and the main purpose of wrapping the product.

Industrial stretch wrappers

Logistics

If storing and transporting products easily is a problem for your industrial production, then you need palletizing solutions. A pallet is a flat structure, on which containers of the packaged products are stacked to consolidate the product and to make it easier for a forklift to lift the goods for warehousing and transportation. A palletizer is a machine that automates or simplifies the process of stacking product containers onto a pallet. The choice of an industrial palletizer depends on the type of product packaging such as bags, drums, or boxes, the level of automation required, and the in-feed to the palletizer. Palletizers find applications in all major industries including food, chemical, and pharmaceutical.

Palletizing

Wrapping is the final step before your finished products are ready to leave the manufacturing site. Packages are bundled tightly together with a low-density polyethylene wrapper to secure the goods inside during transportation and distribution. Automatic or semi-automatic stretch wrapping machines cloak the palleted load in expandable film at high speeds and precision.

Wrapping

Palletised loads need to be securely wrapped in order to protect them from shifting, crushing, ripped or loose packing, water damage or infestation.

The classification of sunflower seeds changes according to the pattern of its shell or hull. If the shell is solid black, it is an oilseed sunflower. With these, you produce sunflower oil. If the shell is striped, it is a non-oil sunflower seed or confectionery sunflower seed. These usually become snack food products. Whether to make them as snacks or oil, processing sunflower seeds include steps like drying, screening and cleaning, grading, roasting and de-hulling, flavoring, grinding, pressing, refining, and packing.

There are two misconceptions about floating pellets. The first one is that they are made with a pellet mill, when the proper floating pellets-making machines are extruders. The second misconception is that floating feed is only used for fish. However, many other species consume feed on the water, such as crocodiles and birds.

Floating pellets

In aquafeed, you can find three types of pellets: floating pellets, sinking pellets, and slow-sinking pellets, because not all aquatic species eat at the same height of the water column. In the case of bottom feeders such as shrimp, river crab, sea bass, and some species of catfish, they eat sinking pellets. Contrary to tilapia and carp that feeds from the surface with floating pellets. Sinking pellets production must control water stability to preserve the quality and form of the pellets, avoiding nutrients' dissolution in the water.

Sinking pellets

When it comes to aquafeed, you can find three types of pellets: floating pellets, sinking pellets, and slow-sinking pellets. Not all aquatic species eat at the same height of the water column. For example, tilapia and carp eat at the surface (floating pellets) while shrimp and sea bass eat at the bottom (sinking pellets). Slow-sinking pellets are ideal for species that eat along the water column such as salmon and cod.  To get the pellets to sink at the right rate, slow sinking pellets production must control water stability in the products.
