It is difficult to imagine producers of such food products as honey, jam, sauces without modern packaging equipment. Modern market trends dictate their own rules and the goods of those producers who have not only high-quality goods, but also a wide selection of high-quality modern packaging are in demand. In the conditions of high competition in the food market, potential customers give their preference to goods in high-quality, modern packaging.

Manufacturers of products that have already established themselves in the market know how difficult it is in our time to enter the market with a new product and gain a foothold in the retail chain and wholesale warehouses. Consumer demand dictates its requirements for products and their packaging. Appearance, shelf life and quality of products – all this affects consumer demand for your product.
Of course, the product that meets all modern trends is in great demand. It is possible to quickly and reliably gain a foothold in the market today only if you use modern filling and packaging equipment.
A heated loading hopper is used to increase the fluidity of products such as honey and jam. The dispenser, using a volumetric dosing method, has limitations on the dispensed dose associated with the size of the graduated cylinder.
The product feed pipe is connected to a heated loading hopper, from where the product is taken for dosing. After receiving a signal from the ECU of the packaging machine, the pneumatic drives of the liquid dispenser retract the rod from the measuring piston cylinder. As a result of the vacuum, the product enters the measuring cylinder. The dose is regulated by a mechanical regulator, according to the distance of movement of the cylinder rod.
When the measuring cylinder rod reaches the bottom position, the ECU sends a signal to switch the pneumatic drives to reverse motion, pressing the rod into the cylinder and compressing the liquid being dosed inside it. When compressed, the liquid that has filled the filling cylinder is squeezed out through the dispensing branch pipe located in the tube on which the packaging film is rolled up with a collar, with a sealed rear longitudinal seam and lower horizontal seam (stick pack). After dispensing a dose of the packaged product, the control unit again sends a signal to the pneumatic drives to pull out the rod and activates the soldering unit.
The soldering unit of the AF-120-Zh honey packaging machine uses constant heating of the packaging film and seals the upper seam of the product-filled package and the rear longitudinal seams of the next stick package with a “euro-roll” type of seam. At the moment of seam sealing, the heaters are closed in the horizontal position and the horizontal pads of the unit are shifted downwards by the set length of the stick package for honey, jam. The seam sealing pad moves to the lower position in a compressed state, due to which the packaging material is unwound.
When the soldering unit reaches the bottom point, the filled stick package is separated by cutting the film with a mechanical serrated or straight knife. At the same time, the rod is pressed into the measuring cylinder and the next dose of liquid is dispensed into a new stick package, after which the electronic control unit sends a signal to release the horizontal sealing pads and moves them upwards to seal the next stick package. The cut package falls on the floor, into a special container (box) or onto a discharge conveyor.
