The difference between a sauce packaging machine and a liquid packaging machine.


In the field of packaging machinery, although sauce packaging machines and liquid packaging machines are both used to package fluid products, they are used for different types of food packaging needs. Understanding these differences can help enterprises choose more suitable packaging equipment according to their own product characteristics and improve packaging efficiency and quality.

What is the difference between a sauce packaging machine and a liquid packaging machine

 

1. Applicable product characteristics

Sauce packaging machine: mainly used to package sauce products with a certain viscosity, such as tomato sauce, salad dressing, chilli sauce, peanut butter, etc. These sauces often contain solid particles or fibres and are more viscous and less flowable.

 

Liquid packaging machine: It is used to package liquids with good fluidity, low viscosity and strong fluidity, easier to convey and measure during the packaging process. Liquid packaging machines are designed to focus on precisely controlling the flow of liquids and preventing leaks.

2. Packing precision

Sauce packaging machine: The viscosity of the sauce is higher, and the packaging speed of the sauce packaging machine is relatively slow, but the precision requirements are higher. The sauce packaging machine focuses on controlling the influence of the consistency change of the sauce on the filling volume, ensuring that the weight or volume of the sauce in each package is consistent to meet the product quality standards.

 

Liquid Packaging Machine: The packaging speed is usually faster because the liquid flows better and the filling and sealing process is quicker. Pay attention to the issue of liquid splashing and bubbles in the filling process, and the accuracy requirements of the liquid packaging machine are also high.

 

3. Equipment structure and material

Sauce packaging machine: Adapted to the conveying and filling of sauces, its internal pipes and filling parts are usually coarse, and the material requires strong abrasion resistance to cope with the solid particles that may be contained in the sauce. In terms of equipment structure, in order to facilitate the cleaning of sauce residues,designed to be relatively compact and easy to disassemble and clean.

 

Liquid packaging machine: The structure is relatively simple, usually using gravity or pressure conveying system. Due to the good fluidity of the liquid, the structural design focuses on the overall fluency to improve the filling efficiency of the liquid. The focus is on ensuring fast and precise filling and sealing of liquids.

 

4. Mechanical cleaning

Sauce packaging machine: The packaging machine deals with high-viscosity materials, and the cleaning and maintenance work is relatively complicated. Sauces are susceptible to residue in conveying pipes and metering systems, so they need to be thoroughly cleaned regularly to prevent material deterioration and contamination.

 

Liquid packaging machine: The packing machine is relatively simple to clean because the liquid has good fluidity and less residue. Often, regular cleaning of the conveying pipes and metering system is all that is required to keep the equipment in good working order.

How to maintain the packaging machine

Cleaning and disinfection: Clean the residual sauce on the surface and inside of the machine in good time before and after use to ensure that there is no residue and avoid the sauce drying out and affecting the operation of the equipment.

 

Replacement of wearing parts: Regularly inspect and replace wear parts, such as filling valves, sealing gaskets, O-rings, etc., to avoid equipment failure caused by aging or wear of components, so as to ensure normal operation and packaging quality.

 

Check lubrication: Regularly check the lubrication of the equipment, replace and fill the cleaning oil in time to ensure that the moving parts are well lubricated and avoid excessive wear.

 

Check the electrical system: Regularly inspect the electrical components, check the sensors and positioners to ensure that the wiring is secure and there is no loosening or ageing.

 

Establish a maintenance record sheet: record the time, content, replaced parts and other information of each maintenance, which is convenient for tracking the equipment status and making maintenance plans.

 

Conclusion
While both sauce packaging machines and liquid packaging machines are designed to handle fluid products, they differ significantly in terms of viscosity handling, filling mechanisms, cleaning requirements, and applications. Choosing the right machine depends on the specific characteristics of the product you are packaging.
