When filling beverages, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals into bottles, the air in the bottles is first evacuated before filling, ensuring that only high - quality products reach customers. Most of the machines used in the food industry are made of stainless steel.

Food Packaging

Air and the oxygen in it have an adverse impact on the quality and shelf life of fresh products. Therefore, many processes require vacuum pumping. A typical vacuum application in this industry is vacuum packaging. Before sealing, the vacuum pump evacuates the air from the packaging bag. Vacuum pumps are used in various industrial packaging machines, such as casting machines, forming machines, disc - type machines, and tray sealing machines.


Molding

For vacuum forming, an additional pump needs to be installed in this part of the machine.


Modified Atmosphere Packaging - MAP

The surrounding pressure exerts a mechanical influence on the product, which can significantly change its external shape. Therefore, the MAP process method has long been chosen in many application fields. In this process, the product is packaged under modified atmosphere with oxygen removed. The product is placed in a blister packaging bag and then put into a vacuum chamber to evacuate the air. Then, the adjusted gas is injected, and the blister packaging bag and the food are sealed with a protective film. With this method, even after long - term storage, the food can remain in its original state, and meat products can stay red and fresh.


Tray Sealing

  • Creating a vacuum and sealing foil - lined bags; or

  • Supplying inert gas and sealing foil - lined bags


Trimming Removal

The centrifugal fan series CEVF is used to suck the cut strips into the container. The collected strips can be recycled.


Other Applications

  • Pick - and - place

  • Soft ice distribution

  • Air cushion machines

The film tubes are filled with compressed air and then welded together to form air cushions. These air cushions can be used as protective filling materials.


Blister Machines

Blister packaging usually requires vacuum generation.


Filling and Capping Units

  • Casting machines

  • Creating a vacuum and sealing foil - lined bags

  • Supplying inert gas and then sealing foil - lined bags

  • Rolling machines: Evacuating the air from the sealing tool and, if necessary, inputting the adjusted gas

  • The final step is to seal the container


Molding

Non - food Packaging
When packaging products, a vacuum pump is used to evacuate the air from the packaging materials before sealing. Proper sealing can better protect the products during transportation, ensuring that the products delivered to customers (such as electronic components and pharmaceuticals) are free from bacteria and dust.


Paper Bag Production

The L series is used for folding paper bags.
Reducing Transportation Volume
Vacuum packaging of clothes. New clothes are packaged with shrinkable films, so that trucks and containers can achieve a larger loading capacity.


Tray Sealing

  • Creating a vacuum and sealing foil - lined bags; or

  • Supplying inert gas and then sealing foil - lined bags


Trimming Removal

The centrifugal fan series CEVF is used to suck the cut strips into the container. The collected strips can be recycled.
Other Applications
  • Stacking

  • Drying

  • Gripping
