SIEHE Powder Mixing & Packing Production Line - for the Spice Industry

Project Introduction: This manufacturer located in Indonesia and specialized in the production of various spices, it has sub-factories in the United States and Germany. As the market expands, the company urgently needs an efficient and environmentally friendly mixing & packing production line to achieve the development goals of improving product quality and production efficiency, and broadening the market.

Solution: After deep communication, the scheme drawing was finally finalized. SIEHE has customized a spice production system for this manufacturer, which consists of unpacking and feeding station system, vacuum feeding system, mixing and blending system, liquid spraying system, storage bins/silos, packing system, steel operation platform, and electric control system. The capacity is around 1000kg/batch, and 16T/8h/day. This production line improves the quality of spices and further increase the operating efficiency and production capacity of the production line.

Process Flow:
The powder raw materials are unpacked by the small & ton bag unpacking feeding station. Through hose, the feeding station’s conical bottom hopper is contacted the receiver hopper (fixed on the feeding inlet of the mixer) of vacuum feeder. The feeding station has a built-in dust removal system to ensure a clean feeding environment, it is also equipped with a sieving function to prevent large particles and debris from get into the mixing system.
Various ingredients are mixed by a horizontal plough mixer which is equipped with a liquid spray system, the liquid raw materials are sprayed into the mixer through the nozzles so that the liquid is evenly coated on the surface of the powder and quickly absorbed, achieving uniform mixing without agglomeration.
Then the mixer discharges the materials into the temporary storage bin. After passing through the sieve machine, the finished product is packaged by a ton bag packing machine and a top-open small bag packing machine (with a heat-sealing machine and a sewing machine).
The small bags then pass through a metal detector, which automatically removes bags with excessive metal content.
The whole production line is controlled by SIEMENS PLC + touch screen which supports recipe output and storage. It is easy to operate and has a high degree of automation.

Product Advantages：
The Powder Unpacking Feeding Station is equipped with a dust removal device so that workers can work in a clean environment. The machine has good sealing performance and is easy to operate, which greatly improves production environment and efficiency. It also has a vibrating sieving function to screen out impurities.
The Vacuum Feeder is a new product developed based on extensive absorption of similar products. It consists of a vacuum pump, vacuum receiver hopper, filter, compressed air anti-blow device, conveying hose, etc. Vacuum closed conveying can effectively prevent dust leakage and cross-contamination, with high conveying efficiency and low energy consumption. It with featured of modular design, no dead corners for installation, quick and convenient cleaning. It can also effectively eliminate static electricity generated during material conveying, and will not cause damage to materials.
The Horizontal Plough Mixer has a reliable driving device, and the driving motor adopts products from world first-class motor suppliers, such as SIEMENS, ABB, SEW, etc. The mixer is composed of multiple sets of plough and choppers. The plough and chopper work at the same time, which has not only a good mixing effect, but also a high crushing and dispersing effect. It is particularly suitable for the dispersion of agglomerated powders during the mixing process, the atomization of liquid and the adsorption reaction of powders, vacuum heating and drying processes, etc. It is a multi-functional mixer with a wide range of applications.

Conclusion: SIEHE after-sales personnel go to the client site to provide technical support and guide equipment installation, debugging and trial operation to ensure the best effect on the production line and optimize production capacity. This production line is customized according to client needs. The overall structure is simple and compact, and it is easy to operate and maintain. We adhere to the principle of client first, providing clients with efficient and reliable solutions and helping clients stand out in the fiercely competitive market.
