Pillow-Type Packaging Machine for Children’s Toy Clay
The pillow-type packaging machine redefines industry standards through its trinity of safety, efficiency, and fun. By combining intelligent feeding systems with versatile molding capabilities, it eliminates inefficiencies and hygiene risks of manual packaging while adding value through personalized designs. Whether for industrial-scale production or creative small batches, this machine adapts seamlessly to market demands.
Description
I. Machine Appearance and Functions
Appearance Design
- Shape and Materials: The machine features a curved, streamlined design with a food-grade stainless steel frame and impact-resistant ABS eco-friendly plastic panels (available in candy colors or transparent versions), eliminating sharp edges to comply with children’s product safety standards.
- Human-Machine Interface: Equipped with a 12-inch HD touchscreen, it includes animated operation guides and voice prompts, supporting multilingual switching (Chinese/English/Spanish).
- Transparent Observation Window: The top acrylic window allows real-time monitoring of packaging, with LED lighting on both sides for quality inspection.
Core Functional Modules
- Intelligent Weighing and Feeding System:
- Dual-screw feeder compatible with toy clays of 50-5,000cP viscosity (e.g., crystal slime, foam clay);
- Weighing accuracy of ±0.5g, supporting adjustable packaging sizes from 10g to 500g.
- Multi-Mode Forming Device:
- Interchangeable molds for creating “standard pillow,” “heart-shaped,” or “cartoon animal” packaging;
- Automatic temperature control (80-150°C) to prevent film deformation.
- Dual Sealing System:
- Longitudinal heat sealing + transverse pulse cutting technology, ensuring seal strength ≥3.5N/15mm;
- Smooth, burr-free cuts completed synchronously with sealing.
- Safety Mechanisms:
- Infrared emergency stop: Instantly powers off within 0.1 seconds if objects enter the 50cm operational zone;
- Overheat alarm: Activates cooling if core components exceed temperature limits.
II. Workflow
1. Material Preprocessing
Toy clay is vacuum-degassed and mixed, then conveyed to the storage hopper. The system automatically adjusts feeding speed based on preset parameters (e.g., 200g per pack).
2. Film Forming and Filling
- Film Loading: Food-grade PE or biodegradable PLA film is smoothly unwound via servo motor drive, with tension error ≤0.5N;
- 3D Forming: The film is folded into a tube via a forming collar, filled with clay, and injected with 99.9% pure nitrogen to extend shelf life;
- Smart Detection: HD cameras scan fill levels, and products exceeding error thresholds are automatically rejected.
3. Sealing and Output
- Heat-sealing blades complete longitudinal and transverse sealing/cutting in 0.3 seconds, with surface temperature ≤45°C to prevent burns;
- Finished products pass through a metal detector (sensitivity: Fe 0.8mm, Non-Fe 1.2mm), and qualified packs are auto-stacked at 50-80 packs/minute.
III. Key Advantages
- Ultimate Safety:
- Dual certifications: EN71-3 (heavy metal migration) and ASTM F963 (mechanical/physical performance);
- Non-toxic materials, zero VOCs released during sealing.
- High Efficiency and Energy Savings:
- 25x faster than manual packaging, producing 3,000-4,800 packs/hour;
- Total power consumption of only 3.5kW, with 30% energy reduction in eco-mode.
- Flexibility:
- “Blind box mode” enables mixed batches of 6 colors/shapes;
- Quick mold replacement (under 10 minutes).
- IoT Integration:
- Cloud-based monitoring of production data and fault codes;
- Remote diagnostics and over-the-air updates.
IV. Application Scenarios
- Large Toy Manufacturers:
- Mass production of Lego-style building clay or Disney co-branded slime;
- Seamless integration with automated lines for end-to-end unmanned production.
- Educational Institutions and DIY Workshops:
- Packaging science kits (e.g., magnetic clay, thermochromic slime);
- Small-batch customization (minimum 500 packs) with logos or themed designs.
- E-Commerce and New Retail:
- Traceable QR code packaging for instant access to usage tutorials;
- Supports “live commerce” with same-day packaging and shipping.
- Eco-Friendly Initiatives:
- Compatible with biodegradable straw-fiber films for “zero-waste” toy packaging.
