Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What products can Smart Weigh pouch packing machines handle?

A: Our machines package solids (nuts, snacks, granules), liquids (sauces, oils, dressings), and powders (spices, supplements, flour) with appropriate feeder systems. Each model accommodates specific product characteristics and flow properties.

Q: How does the automatic bag width adjustment work?

A: Input the bag width on the 7-inch touch screen, and servo motors automatically adjust jaw gaps, conveyor positions, and sealing parameters—no manual tools or adjustments required. The system stores settings for quick product changeovers.

Q: What makes Smart Weigh's sealing technology superior?

A: Our patented radian-angle dual sealing system (heat + cold) creates 15mm wide seals that are significantly stronger than traditional flat sealing methods. The two-stage process ensures package integrity even under stress.

Q: Can machines handle specialized pouch types?

A: Yes, our systems accommodate stand-up pouches, zipper pouches, spout pouches, and custom shapes. Station 2 provides optional zipper opening with cylinder or servo control for reliable resealable pouch processing.

Q: What safety features prevent workplace accidents?

A: Interlock door switches immediately stop operation when opened, with HMI alarms and manual reset requirements. Emergency stops, light curtains, and lockout/tagout capabilities ensure comprehensive operator protection.

Q: How do you minimize downtime during maintenance?

A: Quick-disconnect fittings, tool-free access panels, and predictive maintenance sensors reduce service time. Our modular design allows component replacement without complete line shutdown.
