Line of roasting, packing and packing of sunflower and pumpkin seeds (2)
For the past few years, we have been experiencing a boom in sales of packaged seeds. If 5 years ago you could buy 200 grams of seeds only from street vendors, now in every supermarket, small shop or kiosk you can find a multi-colored bag with a cherished inscription.
Moreover, these bags are available for different tastes: white, yellow, black, transparent, 100 grams, 200 grams, 500 grams - choose whatever you like. And what is surprising, despite such an offer, the demand does not fall: the bags disappear with enviable constancy, and instead, like mushrooms after the rain, new manufacturers and new packaging appear.
Seeing such hype, only a lazy person would not think of starting the production of packaged roasted seeds himself. That's just how to fry it on an industrial scale? In fact, everything is quite simple.
You can fry and pack sunflower seeds in bundles both automatically and semi-automatically. The second method is less expensive in terms of purchasing expensive equipment, but requires constant and active human participation in the packaging process. With the automatic method, it is necessary to first purchase expensive equipment (automatic roasting, packing and packaging line), but in the future all operations will be carried out automatically with a given accuracy. At the same time, the productivity of the automatic line significantly exceeds the productivity of the semi-automatic method.
For semi-automatic frying, packing and packaging, you need:
- Actually, the seeds themselves.
- Polymer film in rolls. It is possible both with polygraphy and without it. In the presence of polygraphy, the drawing must be applied in such a way that its appearance does not change during the formation of the package (calculated for the dimensions of the package and the place where the seams are formed). The film can be of any type and any thickness, provided that its top layer is not polyethylene.
- Hot furnace, with storage hopper, walk-through type PZHP-70.
- The packing semi-automatic machine, which will simultaneously produce the formation of the package from the roll of film, will dispense the set dose of seeds into such a package and seal (close) the package. Semi-automatic packing machines that can handle the packing of seeds in a "pillow" package are:
- Packaging semi-automatic machine with volume dispenser PAF-20-OM< /li>
- Packaging semi-automatic machine with a weight dispenser PAF-20-V
The difference between the proposed semi-automatic machines will be the use of a dispenser. You can learn more about this by ordering a consultation from our specialist.
If desired, the line can be completed:
- Pass-through cooler-cleaner OPP-120.
- Loading transporter ZT-1. It is used for receiving seeds from the cooler-cleaner and feeding them to the storage hopper of the packing machine.
- A bulk product mixer SPB-1. For salting or adding spices.

- Hot furnace, with storage hopper, walk-through type PZHP-70 or PZHP-140, depending on performance (PZHP-70 up to 70 kg/h, up to 140 kg/hour at an average product humidity of 8%).
- Pass-through cooler-cleaner OPP-120.
- Loading transporter ZT-1. It is used for receiving seeds from the cooler-cleaner and feeding them to the storage hopper of the packing machine.
- The packing machine, which will simultaneously produce the formation of the package from the roll of film, will dispense the set dose of seeds into such a package and seal (close) the package. Packing machines that can handle the packing of seeds in a "pillow" package are:
- Pneumatic packing machine with volume dispenser AF-35-OM </> a>
- Pneumatic packing machine with weight dispenserAF-35-V
- Mechanical packing machine with volume dispenser AF-45-OM </> a>
- Mechanical packaging machine with a weighing dispenser AF-45-V
- Pneumo-mechanical packing machine with volume dispenser
- Pneumo-mechanical packaging machine with weight dispenser AF-50-V
It is also desirable to provide for the possibility of removing ready-made packages from the machine. As an option, you can use a transporter that takes away OT-1. In the case of frying products with additives of spices or salt, you can use a mixer of bulk products SPB-1.< /p>
