The Z type conveyor for liquid-filled pouche is a continuous conveyor designed for transporting liquid-filled pouches. It uses a chain or belt to drive a hopper in a circular motion, transporting the bags horizontally and then vertically from a low level to a higher level. Named for its Z-shaped conveying path, it can transport various sealed bags with capacities ranging from 5L to 200L, as well as bags made of various materials, such as PE, PP, and aluminum foil composite bags. These bags can be used for viscous liquids like syrup and lubricating oil, or for low-viscosity liquids like purified water and chemical solvents. Available hoppers for liquid-filled pouches include 1.0L, 1.8L, 3.8L, 2L, 5L, and 8L. Its lifting height can reach 30 meters, and its hourly conveyance capacity ranges from 5 to 100m³.

Liquid-filled bags are prone to deformation, are susceptible to squeezing, and require leak prevention during transportation. The Z type conveyor for liquid-filled pouches features a customized curved hopper structure and a sealed frame design to effectively prevent bag damage and liquid leakage during transportation. The "Z"-shaped layout also reduces equipment footprint, adapting to complex workshop layouts and meeting the needs of multi-station connection.

What types of Z-type conveyors are there for liquid-filled pouches?

Based on the volume of liquid-filled pouches being conveyed, Z type conveyors can be categorized into three types: small conveyors with a capacity of 5-30 m³/h, medium conveyors with a capacity of 30-50 m³/h, and large conveyors with a capacity of 50-100 m³/h.

Small Z type conveyor for liquid-filled pouches: Suitable for small to medium-sized batch production, with a conveying capacity of 5-30 m³/h, such as conveying sauce bags in food processing plants and transferring reagent bags in small chemical companies.

Medium Z ype conveyor for liquid-filled pouches: Suitable for medium-sized production lines, with a conveying capacity of 30-50 m³/h, such as conveying concentrate bags in beverage factories and bulk liquid bags in pharmaceutical intermediate companies.

Large Z type conveyor for liquid-filled pouches: Suitable for large-scale continuous production, with a conveying capacity of 30-50 m³/h, such as conveying solvent bags in large chemical parks and transferring yogurt premix bags in the dairy industry.

What are the advantages of the Z type conveyor for liquid-filled pouches?

The Z type conveyor for liquid-filled pouches utilizes a "Z"-shaped design, combining vertical lifting and horizontal conveying. It eliminates the need for additional connecting equipment and can save over 50% of conveying space in the workshop, making it particularly suitable for narrow workshop layouts and multi-station conveying. It utilizes flow-in feeding and induction unloading, which virtually damages the liquid-filled bags during conveying, significantly reducing the risk of bag breakage. Customizable sealing hoppers and frame dust covers are available based on the properties of the conveyed material, protecting the liquid-filled bags from external contamination and preventing leakage from bag damage. Customizable hopper sizes (width 200-800mm, depth 150-500mm) are compatible with liquid-filled bags of varying capacities and materials, from 5L to 200L, eliminating the need for frequent component replacement.

How does the Z type conveyor for liquid-filled pouches work?

When a Z type conveyor for liquid-filled pouches is in operation, liquid-filled bags are fed into the feed port. The Z-type bucket elevator's hopper receives the bags and then lifts them upward along the vertical track until they reach the top turning section. Afterward, the hopper follows the track's turning angle and enters the horizontal conveying section, where they are smoothly conveyed to the discharge area. Upon reaching the designated discharge port, the hopper automatically tilts as the track angle changes, unloading the liquid-filled bags to subsequent conveyor lines or storage stations. The empty hopper then returns to the bottom along the return track, entering the next round of receiving, completing the continuous lifting operation.

What are the applications of the Z type conveyor for liquid-filled pouches?

The Z type conveyor for liquid-filled pouches can be used to transport various types of liquid-filled bags. These include: in the food industry, for example, juice, condiments, cooking oil, and dairy products; in the chemical industry, for liquid chemicals, detergents, and lubricants; in the pharmaceutical industry, for pharmaceutical concentrates, traditional Chinese medicine extracts, and disinfectant bags; and in the daily chemical industry, for laundry detergent, shampoo, and cosmetic concentrates.

What equipment can the Z type conveyor for liquid-filled pouches be used with?

To automate the production process of liquid-filled pouches, the Z type conveyor for liquid-filled pouches can be used with a variety of equipment, including packaging machines, mixers, belt conveyors, screw conveyors, and screeners.

When used with packaging equipment, it automatically packages and seals the lifted liquid-filled pouches, ensuring sealed storage.

When used with a mixer, it lifts the raw materials into the mixer for thorough mixing.

When used with a conveyor, it transports the filled pouches from the elevator discharge port to the warehouse or the next process via a conveyor.
