The Challenges Posed

1.Thick ketchup: Needed clean and stable filling

2.Tin can package: Needed suitable can feeding and sealing

3.Larger can diameter: Needed easier and faster can entry

4.High speed demand: Needed a faster filling solution

5.Full-line matching: Feeding, filling, sealing, coding, and collecting had to work together

So, the most effective solution wasn't just one tomato ketchup packaging machine however, it was a custom Tin can filling line.

The Solution: A Customized Basic Filling Production Line

After analyzing the product of the customer packaging, packaging design and production goals, Landpack customized a basic production line for filling ACE Company.

1.Belt-type can feeding device: Feeds empty tin cans into the line 
Since ACE Company used tin cans that had a greater diameter, Landpack recommended a belt-type can feeder.

This feature aids empty cans in entering the line of production quicker and with ease. Also, for workers, it helps to reduce the need for hand-handling. Instead of putting cans one after one with a single hand the feeding device can help to move cans forward with a secure manner.

2.Mobile filling machine: Fills tomato ketchup into cans
With regard to the customer's demanding speed for filling, Landpack recommended a mobile filling machine.

The company chose this option because for ACE Company, this was an ideal choice since it was able to handle bigger containers and meet the speed of production requirements. The mobile filling machine was the main component of the overall tomato ketchup packaging equipment solution.

3.Two can sealing machines: Seals filled tin cans
Why do we have two?

Since the front of the line is at a rapid pace. If there were only one sealing machine, and it was unable to keep pace with the speed of filling the cans that were filled will be unable to seal before they are sealed. This could delay the entire process.

4.Laser coding machine: Prints date, batch number, or other codes
To complete the manufacturing process, Landpack also added a laser coding machine as well as an end-to-end product collection platform.

The laser coder can print useful information, such as the date of production, batch code, even the product code. This makes tracking products and management simpler.

5.Finished product collection platform:Collects finished cans
The platform for collecting the finished product is positioned near close to the finish of the line. After feeding, filling up, sealing and coding, final ketchup cans are taken away efficiently. Workers can then transfer these cans to the next stage for packing, like cartons or storage.

The support machines might appear simple, but they actually make the entire tomato ketchup packaging line line much simpler to operate.

Reviews: Customer Feedback After Using the Equipment

After a time of usage the customer was happy with the product. This tomato-ketchup packaging machine solution satisfies their ketchup tin container filling requirements. The feeding component made it easier for cans to enter while the filling machine dealt with the ketchup efficiently and the two sealing machines were able to keep the line going without noticeable obstruction at the back.

Feedback Point Result

Machine delivery: Arrived safely and in good condition
Filling performance: Suitable for tomato ketchup tin can filling
Line operation: Feeding, filling, sealing, coding, and collecting worked together

Final Thoughts

The ACE Company case shows how a customized tomato packing machine for ketchup could aid a food manufacturer in creating an easier tin can filling process. From the belt-type can-feeding apparatus to the portable filling device two sealing machines for cans, laser coder and the final product collection platforms, every piece was designed to meet the actual production requirements of the customer.

For Landpack an effective packaging solution isn't only about selling one machine. It's about knowing the container, product capacity, filling volume along with the speed requirement and the workflow of the factory. We then design a functional line that will help the customer create more efficiently.
