In recent years, the food industry has developed rapidly, and paste is also very popular among people. The different paste is delicious and cheap, so various paste has become the common items on the family table. Filling machines designed for packaging paste are called “paste filling machines”, owning a semi-automatic paste filling machine is very important for the production of the small and medium enterprises.

1. What kinds of paste are there?

There are three physical forms of paste, one is a paste without any particles, the other is small particles, but the liquid and particles are very uniform, and the other is large particles, where the liquid and particle materials are severely separated.

For paste products with strong fluidity similar to water, you can choose the commonly used viscous liquid filling machine. This kind of paste has strong fluidity and does not require any special filling devices when unloading. You only need to choose the automation degree of the machine according to your own production capacity. Taking the filling specification of 500 grams as an example, the filling capacity of a semi-automatic paste filling machine is about 500-600 bottles/hour, and the automatic paste filling machine can reach about 800-2600 bottles/hour.

2. How to choose the right filling machine for different paste?

For the granular paste, such as large-particle shiitake sauce, beef sauce, and such sauces, have special demands in the filling valve when choosing the suitable filling equipment. For sauces with the serious layering of oil and sauce, there are many sauce filling machines on the market at present, not every liquid paste filling machine is suitable for filling this material, because they have serious layering, with a layer of oil on the top and thick sauce on the bottom.

Because of this serious layering, during the filling process, the sauce is uneven, cannot achieve a good effect. Conventional paste filling machines use ordinary three-way valves. In this way, when filling large particles, it is easy to cause the filling valve to be blocked without discharging. In this way, when filling large particles, it is easy to cause the filling valve to be blocked without discharging.

Therefore, when filling such large particles of sauce, a special filling rotary valve is required, so that the material can be transported to the filling nozzle without obstacles, and the filling can be completed easily. Then choose semi-automatic or fully automatic equipment according to your own production capacity.

3. What is the structure of the semi-automatic paste filling machine?

It is mainly consists of the cylinder, shell, and hopper. The whole machine is made of stainless steel, the piston is made of polytetrafluoroethylene, and the pneumatic part adopts imported pneumatic components, which meets GMP requirements.

The filling volume and filling speed can be adjusted arbitrarily, with high precision, simple structure, and convenient operation. The semi-automatic paste filling machine is suitable for liquid condiments without particles and sticky sauces, such as ketchup, mustard, oil consumption, jam, etc. Or the filling of high-viscosity sauces with granular and concentrated beef sauce, chili sauce, bean paste, peanut butter, sesame sauce, hot pot bottom material, and other substances.
