Packaging extends the shelf life and preserves the quality of products

Breads, chocolates, chewing gums, and biscuits are the most consumed products in the bakery and confectionery segment. However, the demand for other bakery products such as pastries, cakes, and cookies is also growing. Confectioneries have become a part of our daily food intake.

 

The report considers the demand for processing and packaging equipment from the bakery and confectionery industries.

Packaging extends the shelf life and preserves the quality of products. It also informs the consumer if the products are safe to use. Equipment used for beverage and confectionery packaging should have features such as easy cleaning and sanitary processing. Baked food or confectionery regularly encounters various surfaces throughout the packaging line.

Food packaging machine should be devoid of holes and slots where food can get stuck; else it can result in contamination. It is important that equipment has an auto-drain option, as residual liquids can lead to microbial growth, and leftover cleaning fluids can contaminate products. Therefore, manufacturers prefer packaging equipment that is designed to maintain strict hygiene standards.

The operation of common feeder technologies

Unlike the volumetric screw feeder, a continuous Loss In Weight Feeder is a gravimetric feeder that directly measures the material’s weight to achieve and maintain a predetermined feed rate that’s measured in units of weight per time.Before operation, an operator programs the controller to discharge material at a predetermined feed rate (or setpoint) measured in units of weight per time (such as lb/hr).

Feeders are typically engineered to address a specific material at a specific discharge rate.Changes in material, operating conditions (such as ambient or material temperatures), plant vibration levels, as well as changes in material characteristics, can all affect feeder performance.Choosing a feeder that can be easily reconfigured in your plant to handle new conditions can help you solve these problems.

For a complex feeder system—such as multiple Loss In Weight Feeders feeding powder and pellets into mixers or extruders—external influences such as vibration, platform stability, and upstream/downstream equipment connections can all affect a feeder’s performance.For a complex feeder system—such as multiple Loss In Weight Feeders feeding powder and pellets into mixers or extruders—external influences such as vibration, platform stability, and upstream/downstream equipment connections can all affect a feeder’s performance.
