Oil packaging made accurate and hygienic

Hygiene concerns, awareness and preference for healthy, fortified variants, and increased income levels are pushing up the market for branded cooking oil.

Nichrome, India’s leading edible oil filling machine manufacturer with four decades of expertise to their credit, offers innovative oil pouch packingsolutions for oil manufacturers.

Nichrome’s Filpack Servo SMD and Sprint 250 Visco are engineered for all oil and related applications including ghee packing and for other viscous products such as vanaspati and fresh cream. Their CSPP pouch and 3-side seal pouch are the perfect solutions for allcooking oil packing. The five-layer film with thickness larger than 85 microns works in three sizes of 100 millilitres, 200 millilitres and 500 millilitres. The output speed is between 80 and 85 packs per minute. There is also a 1000 millilitres option. Accuracy for both ranges is plus/minus 2 millilitres.

The VFFS machines are high speed, accurate and hygienic, with the capability of packing two different products and quantities at the same time. Bag pulling is accomplished with ease through the deployment of a specially designed film roll unwinding feature. Space requirements are lessened as the oil filling machine does not have any side opening. The controller is operator friendly and the machine is totally mechanical with no need for compressed air.

The VFFS packaging solutions are built with an enclosed SS cabinet construction. UV sterilization of the packaging film is inbuilt. The machine isolates the film reel mounting area from other lubricating functionality ensuring no contamination on this front which is a possibility during transportation.
