A brief history of the development of automatic packaging machines
Packaging machinery is developed with the emergence of new packaging materials and the continuous innovation of packaging technology. The papermaking technology invented in China has historically provided the conditions for the production of paper packaging. In 1850, the world paper price plummeted, and paper packaging began to be used for food. In 1852, Wally in the United States invented the paper bag machine, which led to the emergence of paper products machinery. In 1861, Germany established the world's first packaging machinery factory, and in 1911 produced a fully automatic forming, filling and sealing machine. China's packaging machinery started late. After more than 20 years of development, China's packaging machinery has become one of the top ten industries in the machinery industry, providing an effective guarantee for the rapid development of China's packaging industry. Some packaging machinery has filled the domestic gap and has been able to basically To meet the needs of the domestic market, some products are also exported. The export value of China's packaging machinery is less than 5% of the total output value, but the import value is roughly equal to the total output value, which is far from the developed countries. Products in China's packaging machinery industry From the perspective of product structure, there are only more than 1,300 varieties of packaging machinery in China, with a small number of supporting products, lack of high-precision and large-scale chemical products, and can not meet market demand: The product quality gap is manifested in low product performance, stability and reliability. Poor reliability, unsightly appearance, rough surface treatment, poor quality of many components, short life, low reliability, affecting the quality of the overall product; from the perspective of the enterprise situation, the domestic packaging machinery industry lacks leading enterprises, with large production scale and products. There are not many high-grade enterprises; from the perspective of product development, China is still basically in the stage of testing and imitation, with weak self-development capabilities, lack of research and production pilot bases, and scientific research funds only account for 1% of sales, while foreign countries are as high as 8-10% . The technical level of China's packaging machinery is 20 years behind the overall technical level of advanced countries, and it is at a disadvantage in the competition of product development, performance, quality, reliability, and service.
