What is a Flow Pack Wet Wipes Machine?
A flow pack wet wipes machine is an automated packaging system that is intended to encase pre-stacked wet wipes in flexible plastic film packets that hold 10 to 200 wipes each. It is extensively employed in the packaging of personal care, domestic, and disinfectant wipes, as well as infant wipes.
What types of wet wipes can be packed using this machine?
The machine is suitable for a wide range of wipes including:
-
Baby wipes
-
Personal hygiene wipes
-
Disinfecting & sanitizing wipes
-
Makeup removal wipes
-
Skincare wipes
-
Pet wipes
-
Household & surface cleaning wipes
What is the production capacity of a typical flow pack wipes machine?
The production capacity is typically between 30 and 100 wipes per minute, depending on the model, packaging size, and number of wipes per pack.
What is the supported sheet count range per pack?
With the ability to modify the parameters to accommodate a variety of product formats, the machine can pack as few as 10 sheets or as many as 200 sheets per pack.
Can the machine handle both dry and wet wipes?
Certainly, but it is mainly utilized in conjunction with a wet wipes converting machine. Pre-moistened and stacked wet wipes are typically transferred from upstream converting lines to flow pack machines.
What type of film material can the machine work with?
It supports various flexible films such as:
-
PE
-
PET/PE
-
BOPP
-
Biodegradable films (on request)
Film thickness and material type affect sealing and packaging speed.
Does the machine offer auto labeling or resealable sticker application?
Yes, the majority of models can be equipped with auto-labeling systems that allow for the placement of resealable labels that preserve the hygiene and moisture of the product.
How does the machine ensure airtight sealing of wet wipes packs?
The machine produces leak-proof, tamper-evident packets that preserve moisture by ensuring consistent sealing pressure and temperature through the use of servo-controlled heat-sealing jaws.
Is the flow pack machine compatible with automatic upstream and downstream systems?
Yes. It can be integrated with:
-
Wet wipes converting lines
-
Robotic stackers
-
Automatic bag feeders
-
Case packers or palletizers
For a fully automated packaging line.
What are the machine’s hygiene and safety standards?
Enclosed operation and stainless steel surfaces are employed in the design of the majority of machines to prevent contamination, by GMP, CE, and FDA sanitation standards.
How easy is it to switch between different pack sizes or sheet counts?
The use of touch screen control and servo motor technology enables operators to make rapid format changes without the need for significant mechanical modifications.
What kind of maintenance does the machine require?
Regular preventive maintenance includes:
-
Lubricating moving parts
-
Checking sealing elements
-
Replacing worn cutters or belts
-
Cleaning sensor areas
A built-in alert system can notify operators of routine service needs.
Can I customize the pack design or sealing styles?
Yes. The machine supports custom configurations like:
-
Pillow pack or flat pack
-
Zigzag or straight-edge sealing
-
Easy-tear notch
-
Resealable labels or zip lock
What utility requirements are needed (power, air, water)?
Typical utility requirements include:
Power: 50/60Hz, AC380V
Air Pressure: 0.6–0.8 MPa
Air Consumption: approximately 300–600 liters per minute
The integration of watering systems upstream is the sole requirement for water.
Can the machine handle biodegradable or eco-friendly packaging film?
Yes. Biodegradable films may be implemented with suitable sealant calibration. Before bulk production, request film compatibility tests from your wet wipes raw material’s supplier.
