Design and Automation of Multi Bag Dispenser

Abstract

Packaging industries are at an exponential growth rate in India and developing countries at a pace and becomes a preferred destination for packaging industry. The packaging industry is poised to grow rapidly led by development of packaging equipment’s and the rising flexible packaging market. The Industry is experiencing tremendous growth and high degree of potential exists for almost all user segments which are expanding appreciably-processed foods, hard and soft drinks, fruit and meat products. Also, the demand has put a tremendous statistic of growth. Following the trend meat packaging industry has also advanced but the product needs is in variable size to be packed for the need for development of single and economic solution, multi bag dispenser is required for packing products of variable lengths for the industry in a single machine instead of using different machines for packaging of products of variable length. This in turn decreases the cost of labor and increases efficiency of the packaging industry

The aim of the present work is to design the concept for bag formation and dispensing bag filled with one side sealed for packaging like MAP (Modified Atmosphere Packaging), Vacuum Packaging etc. To achieve this objective different concept were generated considering the design principles. All the concepts were evaluated and out of which the most appropriate concept is chosen and solid modelling is carried out. The detailed design is carried out using standard parts available and appropriate material selection is carried out.
