Tired of slow, outdated packaging equipment? Discover the innovative stainless steel long tube packaging machine—also known as a fully automatic single-tube film packaging system. This modern solution transforms the way long steel tubes are packed, ensuring efficiency, safety, and consistency.
Designed for compatibility with various packaging materials like polyethylene and plastic films, this machine significantly reduces labor demands by operating automatically. It protects the quality of the tubes throughout the entire packaging process.
Let’s explore how this cutting-edge machine works.
How It Works: Stainless Steel Long Tube Packaging Machine
This machine functions through automated digital commands. After initial settings are configured, the system handles everything:
Tube feeding and alignment
Filling
Sealing
Labeling
Read on to understand the full packaging cycle.
Tube Feeding and Arrangement
Start by placing the stainless steel tubes on the loading platform. The machine uses a vacuum-based system to align and feed each tube. This can also be done manually if needed.
Cleaning & Inspection
The machine features an internal station using nitrogen-powered vacuums to clean and inspect tubes—removing the need for manual visual checks.
Shaping the Packaging Film
The equipment uses tubular formers to mold the plastic film according to the tube’s diameter and shape. Once initiated, it precisely wraps each tube.
Tube Sealing Options
Sealing is crucial. Choose between heat sealing and ultrasonic sealing—though ultrasonic is preferred for metallic tubes due to its strength and precision. The machine creates a continuous longitudinal seal.
Printing and Labeling
The system prints key information such as brand, batch number, specifications (e.g., 304, 316, 321 stainless steel), and production dates directly onto the film.
Final Cutting and Ejection
The final packaged product is automatically cut and removed by an integrated cutter and picker, ensuring smooth handling of long, heavy tubes.
Collection and Delivery
Once tubes are packaged, they’re neatly collected and ready for shipment based on your customer’s specifications.
