Napkin Packing Machine – A Complete Buying Guide

At Jochamp, we understand how a reliable packing machine for napkin can help skyrocket your business. It is for this reason that we will take you through the critical process of choosing a suitable napkin packing machine.

First, we will start by exploring the available types, key components and vital factors to consider when buying a machine to package napkins.

How a Napkin Packaging Machine Works

· Automatic Napkin Packers

Automatic napkin packing machines execute all the processes in napkin packaging with little to no human intervention. They count the napkins, fold and wrap them accordingly, before sealing them securely at extremely high speeds. As such, they guarantee consistency in the napkin packaging.

작동 원리

The napkins straight from the manufacturing plant are conveyed to the packer through an automatic conveyor system or by hand. The sensors in the packing machine subsequently tally the napkins while grouping them in stacks, for instance, in packs of 100 or 200 pieces. These stacks are then transferred to the wrapping station, where they are enveloped in plastic films.

The wrapping station contains a roll, which holds the large roll of plastic paper that packages the stacks of napkins. The wrapped napkins are then directed to a sealing station, which utilizes heat to seal the napkins’ packaging, making them tamperproof. After this, the packaged napkins are labelled before being discharged from the packer.

· Semi-automatic Napkin Packers

Semi-automatic packing machines for napkins allow you to undertake simple tasks like loading while leaving the more demanding tasks like counting and sealing to the packer. This sweet interplay of roles between the machine and the operator facilitates medium-level packaging of napkins, making semi-automatic packers ideal for catering services, and hospitals, among others.

작동 원리

Since semi-automatic napkin packers are not endowed with an automatic feeding mechanism, you have to place the folded or unfolded napkins gently on the packer. If the napkins are unfolded, they are first delivered to the folding station, where they are folded accordingly. Subsequently, the folded napkins are tallied and stacked in bundles either manually or by sensors.

The tallied napkins, straight from the stacking station, are then delivered to the wrapping station. Here, you are required to feed your packaging material, let us say, a roll of PP plastic film that will wrap the stacked napkins and seal the edges. This leaves you with neatly wrapped and tamper-proof napkins ready for labelling or distribution.

· Manual Napkin Packaging Machines

Manual packers prioritize simplicity, automating only a few functions such as cutting and sealing. They leave the majority of the packaging functions to you, making them inappropriate for large-scale napkin packaging. However, they are available on the cheap, making them the perfect napkin packing solution for small-scale napkin production.

작동 원리

Packaging commences with you manually loading the napkins into the packer’s packaging pouch. If the packer lacks sensors to aid with counting, you are then forced to count the napkins manually while piling them in equal stacks.

After stacking the napkins, you are required to wrap them neatly by hand before letting the packer undertake the sealing process. To draw the packaging process to a conclusion, withdraw the packaged napkins from the manual packer and inspect each package rigorously.

· Vertical Form Fill and Sealing Napkin Packers

VFFS napkin packaging machines symbolize the epitome of automated packaging machinery. They relieve the burden of packaging tissues and towels from you by generating your packaging solutions, folding napkins, wrapping them, and sealing them all in a matter of minutes. Their high speed makes them the perfect solution for large-scale napkin packaging.

작동 원리

Once a roll of packaging material is loaded into the VFFS packer, it is taken through a forming collar, which creates your packaging pouch. Loaded napkins are then counted and isolated in uniform stacks before being dropped into the formed pouches through gravity.

The pouches filled with napkins are then sealed using heated jaw presses and conveyed to the labeling station. After labelling, they are discharged from the packer and dropped into boxes for secondary packaging.

· Flow Wrap Napkin Packing Machines

These horizontal form, fill, and seal napkin packers take napkins from a linked production line and bundle them into tamper-proof and neat packages. They convey the napkins to the respective packaging stations horizontally, encasing them in pillow-like pouches.

Working

Pre-tallied and stacked napkins are fed to the HFFS flow wrapping machine through the infeed conveyor system linked to the production plant. If the packer lacks a conveyor mechanism, loading is executed by hand.

They are delivered to the packaging station, where they are wrapped in pre-branded packaging material. This is followed by sealing, which is typically undertaken by heated rollers, leaving you with fully packaged napkins ready for distribution.

Key Parts of a Napkin Packing Machine

• Feeding System: This is simply the vehicle that picks the napkins from the production plant, delivering them to the packer for wrapping. For most packers, it is a conveyor belt.
• Folding System: The folding system is tasked with transforming flat napkin sheets from production into well-folded napkins ready for packaging.
• Napkin Counting Mechanism: This is often an infrared sensor that keeps count of the napkins awaiting packaging. Once a certain number of napkins is hit, let us say, 50, the napkins are bundled into one stack.
• Sealing Unit: Napkins from the wrapping station are delivered to the sealing unit, where their wrapping films or pouches are securely sealed.
• Cutting Mechanism: Comprised of blades, the cutting mechanism trims the plastic film for packaging into the required size. For accuracy, they are connected to sensors.
• Conveyor System: This system is responsible for maneuvering the napkins through the numerous packaging stations and delivering them into boxes or any other secondary packaging.
• Automation System: This comprises PLCs and sensors, which dictate the functioning of the machine. Essentially, it facilitates the automatic packing of napkins, relieving your workload significantly.

How to Choose a Napkin Packing Machine

The key to streamlining napkin packaging for your business undoubtedly lies in napkin packers. However, transitioning to machine-aided packaging is not as simple as it sounds. You have to evaluate a myriad of factors to get to your perfect napkin packer.

• Napkin Packaging Requirements: First, think of the type of packaging you intend to use as well as the packaging format. Do you intend to pack your napkins in boxes, or pouches, or do you intend to wrap them in plastic films?
• Napkin Specifications: Take into consideration the size of napkins the packer is likely to handle. Can it be adjusted to handle napkins of a different size or fold style?
• PLC Automation System: Look at the functions automated by the napkin packing machine and compare them to your production requirements. Large-scale napkin manufacturing, for instance, may necessitate the highest level of automation.
• Production Speed & Capacity: How fast does the packer package your napkins, and does its speed match your production demand? Keep an eye on the number of napkins the machine can package per minute.
• 위생: Carefully monitor the material the napkin packing machine is made from, as it can hugely impact hygiene. Stainless steel packers are the best since they are easier to clean. Additionally, ensure the sealing mechanism is reliable to avert the entry of contaminants after packaging.
• After-sales support: Most importantly, factor in the kind of assistance or support the manufacturer guarantees to offer once you procure the napkin packer. For instance, is the packing machine eligible for warranty, and does the manufacturer offer installation services?
• Availability of Spare Parts: As you do your research on the napkin packaging machine, find out if its spare parts are readily and affordably available.

자주 묻는 질문

1. What is the average napkin packaging machine price?

Napkin packers command a relatively high upfront price, but this is typically offset by the reduced production costs they guarantee.

A small napkin packer with moderate automation, for instance, may cost between $3000 and $10,000. A fully automated packer designed for large-scale production, in contrast, may cost anywhere between $10,000 and $50,000.

2. What is the best packaging material for packaging napkins?

The vast majority of napkins used in homes, restaurants, and cafés are wrapped in polyethylene paper. PE is favored in napkin packaging because it is transparent, can resist moisture, and is printable. It is also lightweight and comparatively pocket-friendly. Alternatives to PE include cardboard and kraft paper.
