New trends in the development of packaging machinery in the United States
The US packaging industry started in the early 20th century and has developed rapidly since World War II. It has gradually established and formed a complete and independent industrial system including packaging materials, packaging processes and packaging machinery. The total output value of its packaging industry accounts for 3% of the total output value of the national economy. According to the US industry survey, the largest use of packaging machinery industry is the food industry, followed by the household cleaning products and cosmetics industry, medical supplies and tobacco industry.
â—†Innovation speed is always in the first place
The food industry is the largest use industry for packaging machinery in the United States. Almost all models and models are used in the food industry. Among them, soft drinks have the largest annual demand for packaging machinery, accounting for 50% in 2005; the food industry's demand for packaging machinery grew at an average annual rate of 7% from 1994 to 2005. It is precisely because the US food industry launches tens of thousands every year. A new product, which speeds up the replacement of packaging machinery, so the packaging machinery innovation speed required by the US food industry is always in the first place.
â—† Value the brand
Brand is the soul of the enterprise. From the market share of packaging machinery, the top ten packaging machinery companies in the United States are: Barry-wehmillre, Beinis, SA-SIBSPA, AveryDeeeison, Bosch, CrownCork&ha, DougalsMachine , RA Joues Cohpany, Kliklk and Krones. Their success in business depends mainly on three aspects: first, efforts to improve the brand awareness of the company's packaging machinery; second, attach importance to the sales performance of the company; third, attach great importance to the after-sales service of the company's products.
â—†Automation, high efficiency and energy saving of packaging machinery
The current packaging machinery in the United States is: horizontal pillow-type microcomputer control and packaging machinery with servo motor and film tension power control device, future microelectronics, computers, industrial robots, intelligent, image sensing technology and new materials In packaging machinery, it will be more and more widely used, and packaging machinery is increasingly developing in the direction of automation, high efficiency and energy saving.
Automated operating procedures have been applied to more advanced packaging systems, such as the use of PLG equipment and data collection systems, representing the direction of advanced packaging systems. To ensure a high level of productivity, automated inspection systems and efficient automation systems are essential.
The packaging industry uses lighter materials to reduce shipping costs, uses specially designed components and systems to reduce production time, and works with suppliers and manufacturers to provide multiple packaging operations with minimal use.
â—†Application of new technology
Packaging automation procedures have been widely used, in order to cater to consumers, the US packaging industry tends to use a large number of information labeling systems. Because the government requires packaging products to be labeled with nutrients, instructions for use, and bar codes, the labeling system is oriented towards multi-functional information development.
American scientists have developed a new integrated circuit detector that measures the deterioration of a food or a beverage. This new device for food quality testing consists of sensors and scanners whose energy comes from the radio waves emitted by the scanner. The main material of the sensor is lead. When packaging food, put it in the food box. When testing, the inspector only needs to align the scanner with the food to emit radio waves. The radio wave signal from the scanner will cause the food to vibrate, and at the same time, the music wave will be emitted. The music wave will be reflected to the wall of the food box first, then Conducted to the sensor, by using a standard database to calibrate the degree of vibration, the time of vibration conduction and the conduction speed of the score, the time of deterioration of the detected food can be determined instantaneously, and the detection result is quite accurate.
â—† Packaging tends to be diversified and multi-purpose development
The packaging industry is rapidly changing to cater to changes in consumer demand, and production tends to diversify. Taking the food industry as an example, the food processing industry has invested in the development of packaging lines with more flexibility and maneuverability, as the demand for food in Americans has changed in the direction of multi-species, diversification, and specialization. It took 2-3 years to develop a new packaging product in the past few years, and now it takes only half a year to get a new product on the market. This fully shows that the US packaging industry is fast and short in the development of new varieties and new products.
As the packaging industry pursues a combination, simplification, and mobile packaging equipment, packaging machinery manufacturers are increasingly focusing on the development of high-efficiency, versatile, smaller, and more flexible packaging equipment.
â—† Provide more convenient and safe packaging
According to the prediction of the US Census Bureau, the United States will enter an aging society by 2025. The US packaging industry has fully considered the potential demand of older consumers for packaging products, and began to develop packaging that adapts to the characteristics of the aging society in the future, such as with a zipper. The cover is easy to open and the metal top cover is double-finger pull ring. The packaging industry is committed to providing consumers with more convenient packaging.
â—†Package design is moving towards a trend that meets international standards
Companies in the United States are looking for packaging that is unique to the global market in terms of packaging materials, equipment, and sales. In order to compete in the global market, manufacturers are working to develop a policy that is in line with the international standards that designers emphasize.
As Mr. Charles Youska, President of the American Packaging Machinery Manufacturers Association, said: "We are entering a new world of packaging for mechatronics, laser scanning, radio frequency emissions, nanotechnology and system simplification."
New trends in the development of German packaging machinery
According to market research and market analysis, German packaging machinery design strives to serve customers, especially large enterprises. With the development of science and technology and the intensification of market competition, customers have higher and higher requirements for mechanical performance, mainly in the following aspects: 1. Improve productivity, meet delivery time requirements and reduce process cost. The need for some products, also requires packaging machinery and production machinery. 2, to adapt to the needs of product updates, packaging machinery should have greater flexibility and flexibility. 3. There are few equipment failures, and a remote diagnosis service can be performed if a fault occurs. 4. Less pollution to the environment, including noise, dust and waste pollution. 5, purchase equipment investment as little as possible, the price should be as low as possible.
German packaging machinery manufacturers and design departments have taken the following measures to meet customer requirements:
â—† Improve automation
A few years ago, automation technology only accounted for 30% of packaging machinery design, and now accounted for more than 50%, using a large number of microcomputer design and mechatronics control to improve the automation of packaging machinery, its purpose: First, to improve productivity; In order to improve the flexibility and flexibility of the equipment; the third is to improve the ability of the packaging machinery to complete complex operations, that is, using a robot to complete the packaging process.
Packaging machinery automation design has two main features:
1 Each robot is controlled by a separate computer
A packaging machine needs to be completed by multiple robots in order to complete complex packaging operations. Under the information and monitoring of the camera controlled by the computer, the robot completes the prescribed actions according to the instructions of the computer program to ensure the quality of the package.
2 has high resolution to material and thickness
In the packaging process, the thickness and material changes of the packaging materials are not easily discernible to the human eye. Therefore, computer-controlled cameras and detectors are often used in the design of packaging machinery to distinguish the thickness of the packaging material and the material changes. The camera has now evolved to be able to self-check and discern the picture of the camera and display it on the display. At present, the speed of the machine can not be changed during processing. In the future, the speed can be changed according to the change of the material, so that the control can be operated under the optimized state, the packaging process can be completed in the shortest time, and the automatic cleaning, automatic disinfection and automatic can be realized. clean.
â—† Improve productivity, reduce costs, and meet production requirements to the utmost
German packaging machinery, especially food packaging machinery, has the characteristics of high speed complete set, high degree of automation and good reliability. Increasing the speed of the machine is a complex problem. The faster the speed, the lower the cost per piece of production, but the floor space of the plant increases. In addition, the motor speed is limited, so you can't think how fast. In general, a 15% to 20% increase in speed will introduce a series of complex problems.
In addition to increasing the speed of production, you can also try to solve it from another channel:
1 Use continuous work or long work mode. The working mode of packaging machinery is intermittent and continuous. When designing, it should strive to design continuous operation, which will increase productivity. There can also be multiple production lines in one equipment to produce the same product or several different products, but Reliability must be improved.
2 Reduce the scrap rate and provide a fault analysis system. The damage caused by waste products to production is enormous, not only product loss, but also material loss. Therefore, it is necessary to reduce the scrap rate as much as possible; when the packaging machinery is sold, it should also provide a fault analysis system for the repair service, that is, perform modal analysis to find faults, or remotely diagnose through the Internal network to meet the needs of customers. In the future, the packaging machinery should be further intelligent, that is, the equipment itself should look for faults and solve the faults themselves to reduce the scrap rate and the failure rate, so that the normal productivity can be improved.
3 Integrate product production machinery and packaging machinery. Many products are then packaged at the end of production, which also helps to increase the productivity of the product. For example, the chocolate production equipment and packaging equipment produced in Germany are controlled by a system. The key to the integration of the two is to solve the problem of matching productivity. Packaging machinery often becomes the bottleneck of production, so it is necessary to provide equipment with different productivity.
â—† Adapt to product changes and design equipment with good flexibility and flexibility
In order to make the packaging machinery have good flexibility and flexibility, and to improve the degree of automation, it is necessary to use a large number of microcomputer technology, module technology and unit combination. In order to adapt to changes in the variety of packaging products and packaging types, the flexibility and flexibility of packaging machinery and equipment often appear in the following three aspects:
1 amount of flexibility. Can be packaged in a single product, but also can be adapted to the packaging of different batches.
2 construction flexibility. The whole equipment is made up of units, and one or several units can be used to adapt to changes in the product.
3 flexibility of supply. Using a combination of units, the units are combined and supplied together, such as a candy packaging machine, on a common basis, combining different units, three inlets, four different folding packages, so that one machine can simultaneously Pack 8~10 different kinds of candy. It is operated by a plurality of robots, under the supervision of a camera, directing its actions, and packaging different types of candy in different ways according to the instructions. If the product changes, just change the program inside the camera, so that the device has good flexibility and flexibility.
â—† Provide complete sets of equipment
Germany's packaging machinery design, based on the user's needs, provides a structural and economical complete system solution for the production enterprise, and uses the computer simulation technology to demonstrate the operation to the user, and solicits the user's opinion and then modifies it. When providing users with automatic production line or production line equipment, they pay special attention to the integrity of the complete equipment. Whether it is high-tech, high value-added equipment or simple equipment, it is provided according to the matching requirements.
German packaging machinery manufacturers will also provide complete sets of equipment as their goal. For example, a beverage filling line has more than 200 microcomputer parts, many pipeline displays, and more than 100 software programs that control various packaging actions. In order to meet the productivity of 1200 bottles / min, two lines must work together, so the production of the entire beverage filling line takes up half of the area of ​​the football field, and all equipment is required to be installed in one manufacturer. Lenovo has a big weakness in the production of packaging machinery in China, which is the production of more single machines, and fewer sets of assembly lines; more hosts, fewer auxiliary machines, and poor matching. This kind of practice in Germany is worth learning from.
â—† Universal use of computer simulation design technology
With the rapid development of new product development, German packaging machinery design generally uses computer simulation technology, that is, various machine elements are stored in the database in the form of a database, the drawings are digitized and input into the computer, and the computer can be automatically synthesized into a three-dimensional model. Then input the data and indicators in actual production, and input all kinds of possible faults. The computer 3D model can be operated according to the real working conditions, demonstrating the productivity that can be achieved, the amount of waste, and the various links of the production line. Whether it can match production, where is the bottleneck, the customer can see at a glance according to the curve displayed on the display, and can modify the model according to the customer's opinion. Computer synthesis is fast, so modifications can be quick and easy until the customer or designer is satisfied. The use of computer simulation design technology has greatly shortened the development and design cycle of packaging machinery.
Packaging machinery design must not only pay attention to its function and efficiency, but also pay attention to its economy. But economics is not entirely the cost of mechanical equipment itself, but more importantly, operating costs, because equipment depreciation costs only account for 6% to 8% of the cost, the other is the operating costs.
Throughout the development trend of the United States and Germany, although each has its own characteristics, automation, efficiency and energy saving will be the common pursuit of packaging machinery manufacturers.
