Packaging lines are integrated and automated solutions that combine several machines communicating with one another, enabling the complete packaging of a product from primary packaging through to tertiary packaging with minimal operator intervention. Makinate offers a wide selection of used packaging lines from leading manufacturers such as IMA, CAM, Marchesini, and other specialized builders, providing complete solutions for the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, cosmetic, food, and beverage industries.
What packaging lines are
Packaging lines, also referred to as complete production and packaging lines, consist of a chain of interconnected machines in which the equipment dedicated to the initial packaging phase is located upstream, followed by all the necessary downstream machines, up to the final machine that manages the last stage of the packaged product.... The operating principle of a packaging line is simple yet highly effective: to automate the entire production cycle, streamline processes, and minimize human intervention.
Types of packaging lines
Packaging lines are widely used across all industrial sectors, especially in facilities handling large production batches. These lines can be designed to package any type of industrial product and in any format:
Lines for liquid products: designed for packaging water, wine, beer, oils, and syrups
Lines for solid products: developed for tablets, capsules, solid food products, and other items
Lines for semi-solid and semi-liquid products: suitable for creams, pastes, and products with intermediate consistency
Efficiency and machine compatibility
When assembling a packaging line, it is essential that the machines are fully compatible and properly interfaced with one another. An important factor to consider is that the overall production efficiency of the line is never the simple sum of the efficiencies of the individual machines. For this reason, particular attention must be paid to the technical solutions used to connect the machines within the line, ensuring a smooth and continuous production flow.
Configuration for specific industries
In the pharmaceutical sector or when packaging sensitive products, the primary packaging area is separated from the secondary packaging area by partition walls. This technical solution is adopted to prevent any risk of contamination of the packaged product, ensuring that the area where packaging is in direct contact with the product is isolated from the rest of the line.
Bottling lines
In the beverage and agri-food sectors, bottling lines include all the machines required to package liquid products such as water, wine, and beer, as well as semi-liquid products such as oil and syrups. Compared to packaging lines used in the pharmaceutical or cosmetic industries, bottling lines are significantly larger and achieve much higher speeds and production volumes.Investing in used packaging lines through Makinate allows companies to access complete and automated solutions at lower costs compared to purchasing new systems, optimize the entire production process, and maintain high standards of quality, reliability, and operational efficiency.
