How to choose a coffee capsule and filling and sealing machine?

A coffee capsule is a product used to pack ground coffee powder. Manufacturers grind coffee beans into coffee powder and then put them into aluminum (or plastic) capsules, which put an end to the problems of ordinary coffee beans or coffee powder turning sour and oxidizing after contact with air and preserving the freshness of coffee very well. And the cream is also very rich and very smooth.

Because of this small package of coffee, coffee capsules can be drunk after one year; the taste is the same. In addition, the taste has become more and more perfect, and there are more and more choices.

At present, the more common coffee capsules on the market are Nestle, Keurig, Lavazza, etc.

According to Expak's observation and experience, the popular capsule in North America is K-cup, and the popular capsule in Europe is Nespresso.

With the increase in environmental protection awareness and plastic ban, more and more customers choose biodegradable coffee capsules. At present, the mainstream capsules include biodegradable Nespresso and K-cup. Some countries also use coffee capsules to fill tea, liquid health products, and cosmetics. However, specific problems need to be analyzed due to the differences between the target market and the client.

If you want to produce two capsules at the same time in the machine, we could help you achieve it.

If you are a small and medium-sized company, you can consider a single lane filling machine or a rotary type filling machine. These two machines are entry-level machines.

You can operate it easily with a PLC touch screen control system.

These two machines have the advantages of small area and high speed and can produce 2700-4500 capsules per hour.

You can also customize different stations according to your requirements, such as flavor pumps, weighing (refuse unqualified products), and so on.

Suppose you are a medium-sized or large company and want to expand your production capacity. You may consider a four-lane machine and a six-lane filling machine.

As an industry leader, we are committed to manufacturing premium quality coffee capsule filling machines in China, so the accessories we use are brand names, such as Omron in Japan and so on. The operation of the machine is very stable.

You can consider a rotary-type packing machine if your factory is relatively small. This machine occupies a small area (please see the product page for specific parameters). Since the filling machine is pneumatic, you still need to purchase an extra air compressor. As the air compressor is noisy, we suggest putting it outside the workshop.

If you have a sufficient budget, you can consider secondary packings, such as a box or bag packing machine, to achieve fully automated production.
