Pasta is a product made from flour mixed with water. Depending on the size and shape, the product is divided into different types. Pasta is very popular due to its simplicity and high speed of preparation.
The most suitable equipment to pack pasta is vertical pouch filling machines with linear or multihead weighers. These machines are reliable, durable, and easy to operate and maintain. There are two ways to pack pasta: automatic (minimum operator involvement with maximum performance) and semi-automatic (budget saving option, smaller dimensions, but requires an operator at all times of work).
To pack pasta in automatic mode you need the product itself and the packaging material. Packaging material must be in rolls. Rolls can be transparent or with branding, product information, etc.
The most suitable automatic filling machine for pasta is a pouch filling machine APM-S, which can be equipped with a linear or multihead weigher.
The bucket feeder is used to feed pasta inside the filling machine product hopper. The feeder is equipped with a hopper with a vibrating system.
The outfeed conveyor & rotary collection table are used to move ready pouches away from the pouch filling machine. The rotary collection table prevents the accumulation of products at the end of the line, optimizes further group packing of pasta pouches.
To arrange a semi-automatic filling process, you will need almost everything the same as for an automatic one (products for filling, film in rolls), with the exception of an automatic filling machine. In this case, a semi-auto pouch filling machine SPM can be used. A semi-automatic machine requires an operator to be involved in the packaging process.
