Current Status of Packaging Machinery in 2021

2021-10-21

After more than 20 years of development, our countrypackaging machineryhas become one of the top ten industries in the machinery industry. Both in terms of output and value, remarkable achievements have been made. The Chinese packaging market is developing rapidly, is large in scale, and has great potential. With the continuous development and progress of science and technology, the emergence of various processed products has put forward new requirements for packaging equipment and packaging technology. Packaging machinery is playing an increasingly important role. Competition in packaging machinery is becoming increasingly fierce, and low consumption, high efficiency, multifunctionality, intelligence, and automation of packaging equipment are increasingly favored by the industry. Automation technology has accounted for more than 50% on packaging production lines. Moreover, the extensive use of computer design and mechatronic control continuously improves production efficiency, flexibility, and adaptability of equipment, which is the development trend of the industry.

Affected by factors such as increasingly fierce market competition in downstream industries, large-scale and intensive production forms, and rising labor costs, packaging equipment is playing an increasingly important role in production and logistics. Highly automated, efficient, intelligent, and energy-saving packaging equipment has already been favored by downstream industries. Traditional packaging equipment is gradually integrating with fieldbus technology, drive control technology, motion control technology, automatic identification technology, and safety detection technology, leading to the emergence and continuous improvement of intelligent packaging equipment. Fully automatic, unmanned, and integrated molding packaging equipment is currently in a period of vigorous development. Packaging machinery will align with the trend of industrial automation and continuously promote the overall competitiveness of intelligent packaging equipment.
