Automated Pill Packaging System for Sachets and Stick Packs

Packmate (GuangDong) Co., Ltd. introduces its premier Automated Pill Packaging System, a complete turnkey solution engineered for the high-volume, precision packaging of herbal pills, nutraceutical capsules, and pharmaceutical tablets into sachets and stick packs. Designed and manufactured in our state-of-the-art 20,000㎡ facility, this system embodies over three decades of engineering excellence in intelligent packaging. It is built to deliver unmatched operational efficiency, product integrity, and compliance, transforming bulk product into perfectly sealed, consumer-ready packs with minimal manual intervention. This robust line ensures your products are protected with airtight seals to preserve freshness, potency, and shelf life, making it an indispensable asset for modern production facilities aiming to scale output, reduce costs, and maintain the highest quality standards.

Product Features

This automated system integrates advanced technology with pharmaceutical-grade construction to offer a reliable and versatile packaging core for your operation.

Dual-Format Packaging Versatility

The system’s primary advantage is its ability to efficiently produce both sachets and stick packs (flat or stand-up) on a single, integrated line. This flexibility allows manufacturers to quickly adapt to varying market demands and product lines without significant capital investment in separate machinery.

High-Speed Precision Counting & Filling

  • Utilizes advanced multi-head electronic counters or high-speed vision systems to guarantee 100% counting accuracy for pills and tablets.
  • Eliminates product giveaway and ensures every single pack contains the exact, labeled dosage, crucial for regulatory compliance and consumer trust.

End-to-End Turnkey Automation

The fully automated sequence encompasses bulk feeding, precise counting, film forming, filling, sealing, date/batch coding, and optional cartoning. This seamless flow drastically reduces labor costs, minimizes human contact with the product, and significantly lowers the risk of contamination.

Pharmaceutical-Grade Hygiene & Safety

  • Constructed with 304 stainless steel (316 available for critical contact parts) and other compliant materials.
  • Features easy-clean, open-frame designs and can be equipped with Clean-in-Place (CIP) or Sterilize-in-Place (SIP) systems to meet stringent GMP, FDA, and other global hygiene standards.

Intelligent Control & Operational Insight

Centered on a user-friendly, PLC-based Human-Machine Interface (HMI), the system provides real-time monitoring of production speed, efficiency, and error tracking. It allows for easy storage and recall of packaging recipes for different products and facilitates predictive maintenance scheduling to maximize uptime.

Robust Engineering for Continuous Output

Built for durability and 24/7 operation, the line leverages decades of mechanical design expertise to ensure high stability, consistent performance, and a rapid return on investment through superior productivity and reduced waste.
