With the development of packaging machine today, its functions are changeable. The puff snack food packaging machine but also could used for the filling other granular objects. Like Potato chips, rings, banana plantain chips, wheat circles, shrimp chips, rice crust, French fries, candy, pistachio, raisins, preserves, walnuts, almonds ect.
Nowadays, puffed food such as shrimp chips, popcorn and French fries can be seen everywhere in supermarkets and shops. With its diverse taste, crisp and sweet taste, it is deeply loved by teenagers and children. Due to its special taste, puffed food has relatively high requirements for external packaging materials. The main influencing factors are as follows:
1. Barrier performance of packaging materials: extruded food is usually packaged with plastic composite pillow bags, and the machines to complete the packaging process include pillow type packaging machine, food packaging machine, etc, There are many kinds of plastic composite packaging materials, such as plastic plastic composite, paper plastic composite, aluminum plastic composite, etc., which can meet the requirements of different food for sealing, oxygen resistance, water resistance and packaging strength, so as to solve the problems of oxidative deterioration, poor taste and mildew caused by the sensitivity of puffed food to oxygen or steam;
2. The sealing performance of packaging: puffed food is a kind of product which is easy to be oxidized, deteriorated and affected by moisture. In addition to controlling the barrier performance of packaging materials, the sealing performance of the whole package must be ensured to avoid deterioration of the product due to leakage;
3. The content of headspace gas in the packaging bag: the expanded leisure food is fragile. In the process of production and transportation, it is necessary to avoid mechanical or external extrusion of the product, and this kind of food is susceptible to moisture and oxidation. Therefore, the inert gas nitrogen will be filled in the packaging bag of expanded leisure food.
We chantecpack recommand our chips flavoring and packaging line for reference, the working principle is after crisp chips output from extruder machine→ the inclined elevator transport chips to temporary storage hopper and avoid crush→ then feed into flavoring machine→ lift into multihead combination weigher and finish packaging. The whole line could also cooperate with semi-auto case packer or Automatic Robotic Pick and Place Case Packing Machine to make secondary package, chips bags into cardboard case to save labour and enhance efficiency.
