The fast-growing food processing industry requires a large number of high-quality packaging machinery and food processing machinery, and it also brings business opportunities to the packaging machinery manufacturing industry.
According to relevant estimates, by 2005, China's food packaging machinery and packaging industry output value will reach 44 billion yuan, with an average annual growth rate of 10%.
After research on the market by food machinery and packaging industry experts, the current development of China's packaging machinery market has the following characteristics:
The technical content of food packaging machinery is increasing. Some of China's existing packaging machinery products are not high in technical content, and many advanced technologies have been applied to packaging machinery in foreign countries, such as remote remote control technology (including monitoring), stepper motor technology, automatic flexible compensation technology, laser cutting technology, Information processing technology, etc.
The food packaging machinery market is increasingly monopolized. At present, in addition to corrugated box packaging machinery and some small food packaging machines in China, there are certain scales and advantages. Other packaging machinery is almost system-integrated and scale, especially some packaging production lines with large demand on the market, such as liquid filling production lines and beverage packaging. Container complete sets of equipment, aseptic packaging production lines, cigarette packaging production lines, etc., are monopolized by several large packaging machinery companies (groups) in the world packaging market. As foreign companies enter the Chinese market, some uncompetitive packaging machinery enterprises in China will be acquired, merged or bankrupted by foreign companies. Some packaging products will be monopolized by several large enterprises, and the scope of monopoly gradually will be from cigarettes and beverage packaging machinery. Products are expanded to other packaging machinery products.
Specialization in the production of food packaging machinery parts. The international packaging industry attaches great importance to improving the general capabilities of packaging machinery processing and the entire packaging system. Therefore, the professionalization of packaging machinery parts production is an inevitable trend of development. Many parts are no longer produced by packaging machinery factories, but by some common standard parts. Factory production, some special parts are produced by highly specialized manufacturers. This is because many control parts or structural parts of packaging machinery are the same as general-purpose equipment and can be borrowed. China's current packaging industry is “small but complete” and “big and complete” should be adjusted as soon as possible.
The product is developing towards multi-function and single high-speed polarization. The ultimate role of food packaging machinery is to increase productivity and product diversification, which has led to the development of packaging machinery product specifications in the direction of polarization, that is, multi-function and single high speed.
Some large companies, such as Coca-Cola and Pepsi-Cola, are constantly being sold around the world, demanding high efficiency when packaging products, emphasizing speed and quality. With China's accession to the WTO, such products and enterprises will be more and more in China, and multi-functionality is developed to adapt to the changing market demand.
As plastic packaging is increasingly favored by many wine and beverage manufacturers, packaging equipment is also on the rise. In order to adapt to the special circumstances of the current domestic market, on the basis of fully researching domestic and foreign markets, digesting and absorbing foreign mature technology, the company has successfully developed an economical automatic shrink packaging machine.
The equipment can be connected to various production lines to automatically complete the process of bottle handling, conveying, filming, slitting and heat sealing, shrink forming, cooling and output. The packaging quality fully meets international standards. In particular, the core part of the equipment—the cutting and heat-sealing drive system uses the American original ABB high-precision brake motor, which has significant advantages in performance, accuracy, reliability and service life compared with the traditional cylinder movement. And the key parts of the equipment are equipped with safety protection devices to avoid the hidden dangers of falling and broken bottles in the production process. The whole machine adopts PLC and photoelectric control, pneumatic transmission, imported electrical components, the performance is stable and reliable, and the price is only one-fifth of the imported equipment. A novel form of packaging brings out an emerging packaging material and a fashionable packaging trend, which has driven a green revolution in food packaging machinery.
