Defining packaging machines is made easier by knowing the different parts of the manufacturing process. Simply put, it may be a type of machinery that is purposely used for sealing, wrapping, filling, cleaning, packaging and forming goods at varied automation levels. In some industries, the list may include those used while sorting, accumulating and counting items.

Before proceeding to the basic types of machines, it is also best to have a view of the different package types where packaging machinery is often used. Examples range from aerosol containers, blister packs, bags and pouches, pallets and intermediate bulk containers and cartridges to cans, cases, cups and trays, drums, tubes, vials and capsules. As for its applications, there are a number of industries making use of these industrial products. Popular ones are automotive, cosmetic and perfumery, electronics, chemical and petrochemical and food industries. They also cater to military, music, video, software, household products, garment, stationary, tobacco and pharmaceutical industries.

Types of packaging machines

There are a number of classifications when it comes to packaging machines. The list includes accumulators, bagging, batching and bundling machinery as well as box making, capping, closing and cartooning machinery. Below are explanations for all these types of packing machines.

As the name implies, an accumulator or accumulating machinery is used in order to make gathering of goods easier during the manufacturing process. As for bagging machines, expect that products are placed easily in their respective pouches, sacks or bags. Batching machinery on the other hand allows preparation of the goods before they are packaged or processed. Banding machines help secure the items with the aid of bands. At times, this is also called as sleeving machines.

Bundling machines are those that have the capability to pile goods before they are wrapped or banded. Box making machines make it easy for cardboard to be transformed into boxes. The so-called capping machines are responsible for placing or snapping caps into the containers where they are needed. Closing machines are basically made in order to make tying wires or metal straps easier around the neck of pouches or bags. With all these descriptions on each type of packaging machinery, one may conclude that the function of the machine is related to the name given to the equipment type.
