What Types of Matrix Packaging Machines Do Production Lines Use?

Matrix is known as one of the most reliable manufacturers of packaging machines. Their machines are constructed using durable, long-lasting materials, which is why facilities can benefit from maximized efficiency with both new and used Matrix packaging machines. They offer several different types of packaging machines, which are useful for a wide range of applications. The machines they manufacture include pre-made pouch packaging machines and vertical form fill seal machines. Companies like High Performance Packaging buy, refurbish, and resell this equipment for repurposing in other production lines.

Pre-Made Pouch Packaging Machines

One commonly used Matrix packaging machines is their pre-made pouch packaging machine. Packaging facilities use these state-of-the-art rotary bagging machines to package many types of bagged items, including dry, frozen and liquid products. These machines can help increase the efficiency of many different types of packaging facilities, improving the overall production of products. Whether for food or nonfood products, they are ideal for many types of applications, new or used.

Vertical Form Fill Seal Machines

Matrix’s vertical form fill seal (VFFS) machines are also popular, and many different industries can use them. They are designed to be easy-to-use, reliable, and inexpensive to operate. Using a complete Matrix VFFS system can further improve the efficiency of your packaging line, bagging products at a consistent rate with minimal maintenance required. Matrix manufactures several different models of VFFS machines to accommodate for different industries and applications. Each machine is designed to work with different shapes and sizes of bags, meeting the strict specifications of many product packages.

Applications for Matrix Packaging Machines

Many industries rely on both new and used Matrix packaging machines to meet their specific packaging requirements. Some industries produce products that require pouches for smaller items, while others need heavier bags in order to properly preserve meat and other food products. Some of the specific applications for Matrix packaging equipment include:

Cheeses and dairy products
Meat and poultry
Confections
Pet foods
Non-food powders, liquids and chemicals
IQF products
Fresh fruits and vegetables
Ground coffee and powdered food

Matrix Packaging Machinery manufacturers top quality equipment that’s used for handling many different types of bags depending on the products. These bag styles include pillow bags, gusseted pillows, flat bottom style bags, quad bags, stand-up pouches, and more. Because of their high-quality construction, used Matrix VFFS systems and pouch machines can provide the same level of reliable service as newer ones. Facilities can combine them with other types of new or used machinery to maximize the efficiency of nearly any production line.

Along with many other top brands of packaging equipment, High Performance Packaging carries used Matrix packaging machines.

Learn More About Well-Known Packaging Machinery Brands

If you’re in the market for new or refurbished packaging machinery, it’s likely you’ve been doing a lot of research regarding some of the best brands out there. No matter what specific machine you’re looking to purchase, it can’t hurt to learn a bit about a few of the most widely known manufacturers—and perhaps find out why they are so well known.

Hayssen

Hayssen Sandiacre is a manufacturer of a few different types of packaging machines, including VFFS baggers, HFFS flow wrappers, packaging feed systems, and more. They have been producing high quality packaging machinery for over 100 years, and are committed to creating flexible packaging solutions for a number of industries.

Matrix

Is Buying Used Packaging Equipment Risky?

In today’s fast-paced economy, it’s never surprising that people are always looking for a less expensive way of getting things done. Manufacturers may want to expand their packaging lines in order to do more, but may be discouraged by high prices attached to packing machinery. Used options are available, but a lot of people are put off by the word “used,” writing the machines off as being rife with problems or needing mechanical work or repairs. The truth of the matter is, while some companies may sell used equipment as-is, we’re committed to only offering our clients refurbished equipment that is ready to go, running properly, and that will last your company for years to come.

Getting Top Brand Names for Less

When you’re looking at top brand names for your packaging line, you may experience a bit of sticker shock, especially if you’re buying multiple machines. Buying used machinery is a great way to get a deal on machines you both need and want, but it doesn’t mean you’re sacrificing quality—refurbished machinery is brought back to top standards before being resold, which means you’ll be getting a great machine that will serve you for years at a bargain price. What’s not to love about that? You can choose from brands you know and trust, like Triangle, Hayssen, Matrix, Bosch, and many, many more.

Continual Customer Support

Perhaps even better than getting a great price, though, is getting continued customer support from the vendor you purchase machinery from. Many used packaging equipment sellers are once-and-done sellers, meaning they will sell equipment to manufacturers, but if those buyers have questions about how to use or troubleshoot their new machinery, they’re pretty much out of luck. Purchasing used equipment shouldn’t feel like a gamble, which is why we’re proud to provide our clients with the help they need to maintain, operate, or even fix their equipment. You should not need to worry about whether you’re trading quality for price when you purchase used equipment. With HP Packaging, you won’t have to.

Hayssen, Matrix & Triangle Vertical Form Fill Seal (VFFS) Machines

When you’re shopping around for new or used packaging equipment, it’s not a secret that you have a good amount of choice. So how can you decide which brand to purchase from? If you’re searching for the perfect vertical form fill seal, or VFFS, equipment to add to your line, it may pay off knowing which brands are better known for their VFFS machines.

Hayssen

Hayssen Sandiacre is another big name in the packaging equipment industry. Their VFFS machines offer companies the flexibility and speed of packing up to 200 packages per minute. They currently have 9 available models, including continuous motion baggers as well as intermittent motion baggers. See more Hayssen baggers.

Matrix

Matrix is an industry leader in manufacturing vertical form fill seal packaging equipment. Since 1988, this company has been known for providing clients affordable solutions for their packaging needs. Their machines serve a range of different industries, and are available to suit different company needs. For example, if speed is the goal, there’s a machine that produces 300 units per minute, or if the product being packaged is heavy, there’s a model that allows bag weights up to 110 pounds. See Matrix VFFS bagger.

Triangle

Triangle serves primarily the food industries, packaging things like cereals, shredded cheese, coffee, produce, and more in a variety of different bag shapes. Triangle was one of the first companies to manufacture VFFS machines, and though their focus is on the food industry, they do serve other industries as well. They also offer a machine that uses ultrasonic welding technology to seal the bags, which creates 50-80% narrower seals than heat sealing does. See Triangle VFFS baggers.

Depending on what your focus is—speed, versatility, or being able to package multiple products in one bag—and what your industry is, these three VFFS manufacturers likely have a product that will suit your needs.
