Buying Packaging Machinery On A Tight Budget

Before we get to the meat, it’s essential to note that packaging machinery doesn’t always come cheap. Especially for small businesses that are just getting off the ground, this is where the need for brainstorming cheaper alternatives kicks in.

Thankfully, the second-hand market may always have something that you really need to take your business to the next level. You might be surprised how likely it is to stumble upon used packaging equipment that’s still as good as new. If you are just starting out, and are on a tight budget, you might want to consider pre owned packaging equipment that’s well maintained.

While at it, consider machinery that will help boost productivity in your production line.

With that point home, let’s now look at the various types of packaging machinery your business might need.

1. Bagging Units

When running a business, you need to consider the aspect of productivity. Rather than hire 10 employees to be in the manufacturing line bagging goods, consider a one-time investment in machinery that will help in this area.

Below are tips to help you when choosing a used bagging unit for your production line:

  • Invest in a unit that has retained its efficiency
  • Choose a unit with customizable capabilities
  • The safety of your products should be at the top of your priorities
  • Consider bagging machinery that will improve productivity

2. Wrapping and Sealing Units

Larger production companies will use fully automated wrapping and sealing machines. But if you are in the startup phase, you can go manual with some manual procedures. Sealing and wrapping machines ensure that your products reach the consumer intact, fresh, and uncontaminated.

Tamper-proofing has become a common process in most if not all production lines. It’s an attractive packaging procedure that ensures quality products reach the consumer.

Among the most common types of product sealing and wrapping include:

  • Shrink wrapping
  • Vacuum sealing
  • Stretch wrapping
  • Foil sealing
  • Heat sealing

3. Filling Machines

If you are in an industry that requires bottling, then you need machines that will help you fill cans, pouches, bottles, and other related containers. Filling machines are preprogrammed to fill vessels or packages depending on the specified weight, volume, and the unit in question.

Whether it’s an aerosol processing machine, pouch filling, tube filling, or liquid filling, you have all these options to help you make your end product authentic and unique.

4. A Labeling Unit

The finished products will need a label that helps identify them with your business. Today, you have labeling machines with QR coding capabilities, patching products with holographic labels, and securing your labels from the vices of counterfeiting.

These are features that make tracking easier while at the same time, a crucial process when it comes to promoting your brand.

5. Pacer/Ball Press

Many startup businesses want to get rid of manual operations and install some sort of ball-moving machinery in their production line. They like the idea of getting their product out in a faster manner without having to go back to the packaging stage.

Keeping this in mind, some of the most common types of ball presses include:

  • Choppy ball presses
  • Rotary ball presses
  • Scriber ball presses
  • Rivet ball presses

When it comes to investing in the right packaging machinery for your business, ensure to go for high-quality machines that will be consistent in boosting productivity and product value.

Packaging in any line of business will not only help in value addition but it’s often a key factor to help you stay ahead of your completion.
