5.What Is The Working Principle Of The Gummy Counting Machine?

Working Principle Of The Gummy Counting Machine-photo credits: richpacking

The gummy counting machine works following the principles below:

• Firstly, when the gummies are uploaded into the loading hoppers, it will be transferred into the built-in photoelectric detection module.
• There are different number of channels such as 8, 16, 24, 32, 48 in the vibration part. The different channels refer to the different vibration "V" shaped grooves in vibration conveying device.
• These channels vibrate during operation for gummies automatic counting.
• After gummies are evenly counted on the vibration device with a counting photoelectric sensor, it will be transferred to the feeding port.
• There is an electromagnetic blocking bottle under the interface of the machine, which can ensure that the bottle can keep fresh at any time when filling materials.
• When the machine finishes counting with set amount, the cylinder of the machine will automatically switch on and convey the bottles to the conveyor belt.
• The left side of the conveyor belt is equipped with a bottle photoelectric detection eye. This device can automatically detect whether the bottle is not empty. Once the bottle is full, the vibrator will stop counting and filling.

6.What Are The Main Components In The Gummy Counting Machine?

Feeding Hopper

Feeding hopper is specially used for gummy and materials loading. The design of this feed hopper is convenient for large-capacity loading of gummies and other materials. With a double-hole feeding hopper, it can facilitate the entry of materials from the left and right sides at the same time, increasing your production capacity and production efficiency.

Touch Screen

There is a touch screen for your fully automation control without labor control and operation. It can intelligent control the counting and filling process with security monitoring. When any unfavorable situation occurs, the machine can automatically stop and protect the damage of machine devices and equipment.

Vibration Conveying Material Channel

All the vibration conveying material channels are made of 316 stainless steel and adopts the vibration conveying system to ensure the counting accuracy. Different gummy counting machines have different numbers of vibration conveying material channels, you can choose according to your own needs. Through the design of vibration conveying material channels, the materials can be evenly distributed and counted, and the mutual interference of other counting channels is also reduced.

Built-in Photoelectric Detection Module

8.Why Industrials Prefer Gummy Counting Rather Than Gummy Weighing?

As people start to focus on their own health, people start to pay more attention to nutritional supplements instead of medicines, such as gummies, oils, vitamin supplements, etc. With the growth of demand, gummy counting machines are also widely produced and applied.

So which is better? counting or weighing?

For nutraceuticals or gummies, accurate measurement is critical for both manufacturers and consumers. Whether it is nutritional supplements or gummies, the slight difference of each product can directly affect the packaging of the item and the consumption of consumers. This accuracy can guarantee the quantity of production cost and the reliability of batching and verification process. Therefore, most manufacturers will choose counting instead of weighing.

Measuring Consistency

During the packaging process of gummy, due to the slight weight difference of each substance, the machine cannot guarantee the consistency of the weight of the materials in each bottle, but it can guarantee the consistency of the number of materials in each bottle . This will not only facilitate the verification of the filling manufacturer itself, but also facilitate the consumption of consumers.

Avoid Overcompensation

Due to the weight difference caused by the irregular shape of some materials, in order to achieve the predetermined filling weight, the machine will automatically perform weight overcompensation. Such over-compensation of weight requires the manufacturer to bear the responsibility, so this will greatly increase the production cost of the manufacturer. Therefore, packaging by counting can greatly reduce your packaging and material costs.

Strict Dosage Control

For sensitive nutritional health products that require accurate measurement, consumers must strictly control the daily dosage and quantity when eating. At this time, the gummy counting machine will play its biggest advantage. Packaging by counting can provide consumers with accurate daily dosage and number of tablets, which can greatly improve consumers' trust.

9.What Are The Differences Between A Semi-automatic Gummy Counting Machine And An AutomaticGummy Counting Bottling Machine?

An automatic gummy counting machine also refers to the gummy bottling machine that not only can be applied for gummy counting but also can be applied for gummy fillings into different shapes and sizes bottles. The gummy bottling machines are widely applied for the gummy counting and filling for large capacity and in the counting lines.

The desiccant inserter is connected with the gummy counting machine and the capping machine. After the bottles are filled with the set amount of the gummies and candies, then the bottles will transferred to the desiccant inserter. The desiccant inserter will insert the desiccants into the bottles for the moisture-proof and the long shelf life.

Capping Machine

After the capping machine received the filled gummy bottles, it will apply the screw sealing to the gummy bottles for closure according to the set relevant parameters. Due to the fully intelligent control, the coordination of the machine is good, and no special operation is required.

Labeling Machine

The last step for the gummy counting line is labeling machine. The labeling machine will offer you the stable, and precise label through the pre-feeding system and make the labels in the accurate and right position according to your needs.

11.What Are The Troubleshootings For Gummy Counting Machines?

During the use of gummy counting machine, it is prone to failure due to improper operation or long-term use without maintenance. Therefore the troubleshootings of the machine are also very important.

Excessive Vibration

If the vibration of the machine is too large, it means that the bearings of the machine are worn and need to be repaired and adjusted in time.

Spillage

During bottling, if gummies leak out of the bottle, the distance between the feeding port and the mouth of the bottle should be too wide. You should immediately adjust the distance between the bottle mouth and the feeding port.

Fault Light On

If the fault light is on repeatedly during your operation of the machine, it proves that the transmission part of your machine is faulty. At this time, you need to stop immediately for maintenance. Restart the machine after the fault light returns to normal.

Loud Noise

If there is too much noise during the operation of the machine, and the noise is not from the external environment, then foreign objects may have fallen into the machine. At this time, you need to cut off the power supply in time and clean up foreign objects in time. If the problem is with the electrical equipment itself, then you should start repairing it right away.

Motor Overload

If the machine motor is overloaded, it is due to the excessive power of the motor. At this time, you should choose and replace the motor that matches the power of the machine.

Conclusion:

The gummy counting machines are very versatile and in great demand. Whether it is used as a stand-alone machine or directly integrated into the filling line, this machine has a very high utilization rate and value.
