Mask Four sided Sealing Packaging Machine

The mask four-side sealing packaging machine combines precision engineering and intelligent control to achieve efficient, standardized packaging for protective equipment. Despite higher upfront costs and technical demands, its advantages in hygiene, productivity, and compliance make it a cornerstone of modern mask manufacturing. As global health awareness grows, four-side sealing technology will continue driving advancements in safer, smarter medical packaging solutions.

Description

As essential medical protective gear and daily health management products, masks require packaging with high sealing integrity, hygiene, and production efficiency to ensure product quality and market supply. The four-side sealing packaging machine, designed specifically for automated mask packaging, employs full-edge heat-sealing technology to guarantee airtightness and aesthetic appeal.

1. ‌Machine Structure and Components

The mask four-side sealing packaging machine features a modular, compact design with clearly defined functional components:

  1. Machine Frame

    • Made of ‌304 stainless steel‌ for corrosion resistance and easy cleaning, complying with medical-grade hygiene standards.
    • Equipped with a ‌transparent protective cover‌ to prevent dust contamination and ensure operational safety.
  2. Film Feeding and Guidance System

    • A ‌film roll holder‌ supports medical-grade composite films (e.g., PE/PP, breathable, or antimicrobial films), with an automatic deviation correction device to ensure smooth film feeding.
    • Guide rollers‌ minimize film wrinkles and material waste.
  3. Bag Formation and Filling Unit

    • A ‌forming tool‌ folds flat film into 3D pouches, adaptable to single or stacked masks.
    • Vibratory feeders‌ or robotic arms precisely place masks into pouches; optional vision inspection systems reject defective products.
  4. Four-Side Heat-Sealing Mechanism

    • Upper and lower ‌heat-sealing molds‌, driven by servo motors, precisely control temperature (80°C–200°C) and pressure for high-speed sealing.
    • Synchronous four-edge sealing‌ ensures uniform, bubble-free seams, meeting antibacterial and moisture-proof requirements.
  5. Cutting and Collection Unit

    • Rotary blades‌ cut sealed packages into individual units with smooth, burr-free edges.
    • Finished products are conveyed via a belt for automatic counting and stacking.
  6. Smart Control Panel

    • A ‌touchscreen-integrated PLC control system‌ allows parameter adjustments (speed, temperature, bag length) and supports preset modes.

2. ‌Workflow

  1. Film Feeding and Bag Formation
    The film roll is guided through rollers into a forming tool, folded into a U-shaped pouch, and heat-sealed at the bottom to create the initial package.

  2. Mask Loading
    Masks are aligned via vibratory feeders, picked up by suction cups or robotic arms, and placed into pouches without overlap.

  3. Four-Side Heat Sealing
    Upper and lower molds close to simultaneously heat-seal the left, right, top, and bottom edges within ‌0.5–2 seconds‌.

  4. Cutting and Output
    Continuous sealed packages are cut into individual units by rotary blades and conveyed to collection bins for counting and boxing.

3. ‌Advantages

  1. Superior Sealing Performance
    Fully enclosed four-edge structure prevents bacterial intrusion and moisture penetration, extending shelf life and complying with ‌YY/T 0698-17 medical packaging standards‌.

  2. High Efficiency
    Speeds of ‌80–150 packs/minute‌ and 24/7 operation meet urgent demands (e.g., pandemic supply surges).

  3. Versatility
    Adjustable molds and parameters accommodate diverse mask sizes (flat, KN95, children’s masks) and packaging formats (single/multi-piece packs).

  4. Hygienic Design
    Stainless steel frame and enclosed structure minimize contamination risks; optional cleanroom-compatible versions or UV sterilization modules enhance safety.

4. ‌Application Scenarios

  1. Medical Mask Production Lines
    For sterilized medical surgical masks and N95 respirators, ensuring sterile packaging during transport and storage.

  2. Civil Protective Equipment Factories
    Packages daily protective masks and PM2.5 filters with dustproof and moisture-resistant seals, improving user experience.

  3. Emergency Supply Centers
    Rapidly packages masks during public health crises, supporting small-batch customization (e.g., 10-piece family packs).

  4. Global Market Customization
    Adapts to international labeling regulations, printing multilingual instructions and certifications (e.g., CE, FDA) on packaging.
