Product Overview

SW-300B: Full-Line Tidying Feeding & Pillow Wrapping System

The SW-300B is not a single wrapper — it is a complete automatic tidying feeding packaging line that combines product sorting, single-file alignment, high-speed pillow pouch wrapping, and finished bag discharge into one integrated 9-metre stainless steel platform. Bulk bar-shaped products — chocolate bars, shaqima, chicken stock cubes, nougat bars — are loaded into the hopper, automatically tidied into single-file rows by six Panasonic servo-driven belt sections, and delivered to the wrapping zone without manual intervention.

What sets this line apart is the distributed servo architecture: six independent Panasonic servo motors each control a belt section, allowing per-lane speed tuning for different product geometries. A fiber sensor at the handoff point detects product presence before sealing — if no product is detected, the line pauses automatically, bringing the empty-bag rate to near zero. Combined with Siemens PLC touch-screen control, photoelectric colour-mark registration, and 100-recipe memory, the SW-300B is designed for factories that need sustained high-speed output with minimal operator involvement.

Bag Format

Output Bag Type: Pillow Pouch from Rollstock Film

The SW-300B produces pillow pouches directly from rollstock film. Film is pulled from the mounted roll, formed around the product, sealed longitudinally along the back, then cut and sealed transversely at each end. The result is a compact, airtight single-piece pack — the standard format across the pillow pouch packing machine category.

Film materials: OPP, CPP, PET, laminated rollstock film, aluminium foil rollstock film, waxed paper, and single or double-layer heat-seal materials. The photoelectric color-mark sensor tracks printed registration marks on film for accurate seal alignment on every bag. Send your film sample and product for a seal quality test before ordering.

Machine Operation

How the SW-300B Tidying Feeding Line Works — 4 Stages

The SW-300B completes the full packaging cycle automatically — from bulk product input to sealed bag output — without manual intervention at any step. The sequence below shows how product moves through each stage of the line.

Step 1: Six Panasonic servo motors drive the tidying belt to sort and align bar products into single file

1. Servo Feeding

Step 2: Automatic roll film wrapping with colour-mark registration

2. Roll Film Wrapping

Step 3: Cross seal cutting and transverse sealing of pillow pouch

3. Cutter Sealing

Step 4: Finished pillow pouch product discharged onto output conveyor

4. Finished Product

01

Bulk Loading & Servo Belt Feeding

Bulk product is loaded into the hopper above the tidying belt. The motorised belt conveyor, driven by six Panasonic servo motors, carries individual items forward while guide rails and adjustable lane separators align them into a single-file row. Unlike a turntable, the linear belt is optimised for bar-shaped and block products that need directional alignment rather than radial separation. The fiber sensor at the belt entry monitors product presence continuously — if the belt runs empty, the line pauses automatically to prevent empty bags from reaching the sealer.

02

Film Feed, Forming & Longitudinal Sealing

Rollstock film is pulled from the film roll, guided through the tensioning rollers, and formed around each product by the forming collar. The longitudinal back seal is applied to close the film tube around the product. The photoelectric color-mark sensor reads registration marks on printed film to keep brand artwork and seal lines in the correct position on every bag. Film tension, forming speed, and seal temperature are set through the touch screen and stored in the recipe memory. The Siemens PLC manages the synchronisation between the tidying belt speed and the wrapping section speed — these two speeds are set as a ratio in the recipe, so changing product size or target speed is a single parameter adjustment.

03

Cross Sealing, Cutting & Date Coding

The transverse seal bars close the ends of each bag and the cutting knife separates it from the film tube. The seal jaw timing is managed by the servo drive, maintaining consistent seal width and bag length accuracy up to 1,200 bags per minute. The built-in date printer stamps production date codes on each bag before discharge.

04

Bag Discharge & Line Integration

Finished pillow pouches exit onto the discharge conveyor for collection or downstream integration with metal detectors, checkweighers, or cartoning systems. The SW-300B is designed to run as a standalone production line or integrate into a broader factory layout. For factories already running ShengWei wrapping equipment, the control logic and operator interface follow the same conventions across the pillow pouch packing machine range.

Line Design

Five Core Systems That Make This a Complete Packaging Line

At 9 metres and 3,500 kg, the SW-300B is a production-grade packaging line, not a standalone wrapper. These five subsystems define how the line handles product from bulk hopper to sealed bag output. For factories that need a turntable rotary feeding approach instead of linear tidying, see the SW-300A turntable feeding line.

① Six-Servo Tidying Belt System

Six Panasonic servo motors drive the tidying belt independently, allowing individual lane speed control. Guide rails and adjustable separators align bulk product into a single file. The servo-per-lane design means each section of the belt can be tuned for different product sizes without changing mechanical parts.

② Fiber Sensor Empty-Bag Prevention

A fiber sensor monitors product presence at the handoff point between the tidying belt and the infeed conveyor. If no product is detected — gap in supply, jammed item, or hopper running low — the line pauses automatically before the empty film section reaches the sealer. This brings empty-bag rate to near zero.

③ Siemens PLC + Touch Screen Control

The Siemens PLC with 10-inch colour touch screen stores up to 100 product recipes. Speed, temperature, film feed, belt ratio, and bag pitch are all set from this single panel. Multi-language display and a structured recipe system mean line operators can handle product changeover without engineering support.

④ Photoelectric Color-Mark Registration

The photoelectric sensor reads registration marks on printed film in real time, keeping brand artwork positioned correctly on every bag. At 1,200 bags per minute this registration precision is critical — the servo drive and color-mark loop work together to compensate for any film stretch or slip.

⑤ Date Printer & Discharge Conveyor

The built-in date coding unit prints production date, batch, or expiry information on each bag before discharge. The output conveyor delivers sealed bags for collection, counting, or downstream integration with metal detectors, checkweighers, or cartoning lines.

Sealing Zone & Fiber Sensor

The fiber sensor detects product presence before the cross seal station. If no product is present, the line pauses to prevent an empty pouch from being sealed and passing to the downstream line. This system brings the empty-bag rate to near zero — a critical requirement for stock cube and food ingredient producers.

Six Panasonic servo motors mounted in a row on the SW-300B tidying belt conveyor system

6× Panasonic Servo Motors

Six Panasonic servo motors drive the tidying belt independently. Each motor controls a belt section, allowing individual speed tuning per lane. This distributed servo architecture is what enables the SW-300B to achieve 1,200 bags per minute with stable, low-noise operation across the full belt length.

SW-300B film tensioning rollers and forming section where rollstock film is guided and shaped around products

Film Forming & Tensioning Section

Precision film guide rollers maintain consistent tension as rollstock film is pulled from the roll, guided through the forming path, and wrapped around each product. Correct tension is critical at high speeds — loose film causes misregistration, over-tightened film causes tears.

SW-300B end sealer and discharge section with transparent safety cover over the cross seal and cutting zone

End Sealer & Bag Discharge

The cross seal station applies transverse seals to both ends of the pillow pouch and the cutting knife separates finished bags from the film tube. A transparent safety cover allows operators to observe the sealing action without stopping the line. Finished bags exit on the discharge conveyor.

Decision Guide

SW-300B vs SW-300A — Tidying Line or Turntable Line?

Both are complete packaging lines (not standalone wrappers), but they use different product-feeding logic. The SW-300B uses a linear tidying belt optimised for bar-shaped and rectangular products. The SW-300A uses a rotary turntable optimised for round, disc, or compact products. The wrapping sections are similar — the key difference is how bulk product gets organised before entering the wrapper.

Choose SW-300B When:

  • Products are bar-shaped, rectangular, or block format — chocolate bars, shaqima, stock cubes, biscuit sticks
  • You need up to 1,200 bags/min — higher throughput than the turntable line
  • Empty-bag prevention is mandatory — fiber sensor stops the line before unsealed empty pouches form
  • You need 6 independent servo motors for precise belt speed control per lane section
  • Your line footprint allows for a 9-metre installation (~3,500 kg)

Consider SW-300A Instead When:

  • Products are round, disc-shaped, or compact — candy drops, compressed towels, nougat cubes
  • You prefer a turntable rotary feeder for radial product separation
  • 50–800 bags/min meets your production target and a 6-metre footprint is preferred
  • You want dual film roll auto-switch for long uninterrupted film runs

When a Full Packaging Line Is Not What You Need

The SW-300B is for factories that need integrated tidying feeding, wrapping, and discharge in one line. If you already have a feeding system and just need a standalone wrapper, the SW-350A multifunctional wrapper or SW-350B film-beneath model may be a better fit at a lower investment. For liquid products, use a collar type liquid packing machine (SW-420F). For powder with auger dosing, use a collar type auger powder packing machine (SW-420E/620E). For granules with multihead weighing, use a collar type multihead weigher packing machine (SW-420A/620A). For premade stand-up pouches or zip-lock bags, see the premade bag packing machine family.

About the Manufacturer

Why Choose ShengWei Machine for Tidying Feeding Line Projects

Complete Line Engineering, Not Just a Wrapper

ShengWei designs and manufactures complete packaging lines — from tidying belt to discharge — in one Guangdong factory. That matters on a line project like the SW-300B because the sorting belt, infeed conveyor, wrapper, and controls all need to work together. Buying feeding and wrapping from different suppliers creates integration risk. ShengWei builds and tests the entire 9-metre line as one system before shipping.

Custom Tidying Belt for Your Product

The tidying belt geometry — lane width, guide rail spacing, separator pitch, and brush type — is configured to your actual product sample before manufacturing. Send us a product sample and we provide a running test video before the line leaves the factory. This front-end engineering is what makes the automatic feeding reliable on the factory floor.

Factory-Direct Export with Remote Support

Direct factory communication through WhatsApp and video call for pre-sales engineering, commissioning support, and troubleshooting. For a production line that weighs 3,500 kg and runs at 1,200 bags/min, the quality of technical support during installation directly affects how fast the line reaches full production.

Stainless Steel 304 Food-Grade Construction

The entire line is built from SUS304 stainless steel, meeting food industry hygiene requirements. This is particularly important for chicken stock cube, seasoning, and food ingredient packaging where cleaning procedures and contamination prevention are part of daily operation. The line also carries CE certification for export compliance.

Client Feedback

What Our Clients Say

We pack chicken stock cubes at 900 bags per minute on the SW-300B. The fiber sensor is the feature that sold us — we had serious empty-bag complaints from our retail customers before, and that problem is now completely solved. The line paid for itself in nine months.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of products is the SW-300B designed for?

The SW-300B is designed for bar-shaped, rectangular, and block-format products — including chocolate bars, wafer sticks, shaqima snack bars, cereal bars, chicken stock cubes, bouillon blocks, and similar regular-geometry solid products. The product must have a consistent length and be able to align in a linear lane. Product dimensions must fall within 15–200 mm (length) × 15–60 mm (width) × 5–30 mm (height). For loose granule or powder products, see the collar type packing machine range instead.

How does the tidying feeding system work differently from a turntable feeder?

A turntable feeder uses a rotating disc to separate and radially eject products — best for round, compact, or disc-shaped items like candy drops or compressed tablets. The SW-300B's tidying belt uses a linear conveyor with guide rails and lane separators to align bar or block products directionally before feeding them into the wrapper. This makes it better suited for products with a clear length dimension that need to be oriented end-to-end rather than radially. See the SW-300A turntable feeding line for the turntable approach.

What is the maximum packing speed of the SW-300B?

The SW-300B reaches up to 1,200 bags per minute. Actual achievable speed depends on product size (smaller products allow higher speeds), bag length, film type, and seal dwell time. The minimum speed is 50 bags per minute, which supports start-up, adjustment, and slower-run products. Most factories operating the SW-300B on chicken stock cubes or chocolate bars run at 600–1,000 bags per minute during production.

How does the fiber sensor prevent empty bags?

A fiber optic sensor is positioned at the handoff point between the tidying belt and the infeed conveyor. It detects the presence of each individual product before it enters the wrapping zone. If no product is detected — due to a supply gap, a jammed item on the belt, or the hopper running low — the PLC pauses the line automatically before an empty film section reaches the sealer. This prevents unsealed empty pouches from being produced. The detection happens at the product level, not the bag level.

Why does the SW-300B use six servo motors instead of one?

The six Panasonic servo motors each drive an independent belt section. This distributed architecture allows the speed of each belt section to be tuned independently — important when the product needs a gradual speed ramp to achieve single-file alignment without jamming. A single motor driving the full belt length cannot achieve this per-section speed control. The multi-servo design also reduces noise, lowers each motor's load, and makes the system mechanically simpler than a single high-torque drive with gearboxes.

What film materials can the SW-300B handle?

The SW-300B handles OPP, CPP, PET, laminated rollstock film, aluminium foil rollstock, wax paper, and single or double-layer heat-seal materials. The film width capacity is up to 320 mm and the roll diameter up to φ320 mm. Seal temperature is independently controlled for longitudinal and transverse bars. If you are using a specific film material or printed film with tight registration requirements, we recommend sending a film sample for a compatibility and seal-quality test before finalising the order.

Can the SW-300B handle multiple product types or SKUs?

Yes. The Siemens PLC stores up to 100 product recipes. Each recipe stores belt speed ratio, seal temperature, bag pitch, film feed speed, and date printer parameters. Switching between products requires selecting the saved recipe on the touch screen and making minor physical adjustments to guide rail spacing. Changeover time depends on how different the two products are — switching between similarly-sized products takes 8–15 minutes; switching between significantly different sizes may take 20–30 minutes for guide rail adjustment. For factories that need to run two different product types simultaneously on a single line, the SW-1000B dual-material feeding pillow packing machine is a better fit.

What are the main electrical component brands used in the SW-300B?

The SW-300B uses Siemens PLC and 10-inch colour touch screen for the control system, Panasonic servo motors (×6) for the tidying belt drive, Schneider frequency inverter, AirTAC pneumatic components and solenoid valves, and a GDS photocell eye for color-mark film registration. Temperature control meters are WINPARK brand. All brands are sourced from established industrial suppliers with verified replacement parts availability globally.

Can I send product samples for a test run?

Yes. Ship a representative quantity of your product plus your rollstock film to our Shantou factory. We will run a test on the actual SW-300B line, record a video showing feeding behaviour, wrapping quality, and seal appearance, and confirm the recommended tidying belt configuration, speed parameters, and film compatibility. This is the most reliable way to confirm suitability before placing an order. Contact us for the shipping address and sample requirements.

What is the installation requirement for the SW-300B?

The SW-300B requires a floor space of approximately 9,000 × 1,200 mm (plus clearance for operator access on both sides, recommended 800 mm per side). Power supply: 380V 50Hz three-phase, 9.5 kW total load. A level concrete floor capable of supporting 3,500 kg is required. No foundation anchor is needed for standard installations. The machine ships partially disassembled in sections for container loading — reassembly on-site takes 1–2 days with ShengWei's commissioning engineer support (remote or on-site available).
