Development status of packaging machines

Data analysis shows that the growth of the entire pharmaceutical industry in 2016 was not too poor. According to UBS's statistics, in terms of income level, the growth rate of the pharmaceutical industry has remained at 9.7% in the past year, and it is expected that the revenue growth of the pharmaceutical industry will remain around 10% in the next three years. Last year, the industry's profit growth reached 13.9%, which also means that the profit growth level in the past year was better than the revenue growth level, and the entire industry still experienced a certain level of efficiency oriented growth.

In addition to industry development, market demand is also gradually expanding with the favorable policies and economic development. Drug packaging is an essential process for drugs to enter the market, and the pharmaceutical packaging machine is a mechanical device to achieve this process, as well as a device to relieve manual packaging and improve packaging efficiency.

How to choose a packaging machine? Besides design, it also depends on customization

Drug packaging machines are widely used globally, but there is still a lack of high-end products for drug packaging machines in China. Therefore, users should also consider comprehensive selection when purchasing. The design and structure of the packaging machine are sturdy and durable, which can better resist external forces and vibrations and adapt to harsh production environments. So when choosing, it is important to ensure that the packaging machine supplier uses high-quality components. Industry insiders point out that users can ask for the type of component they request, as well as the name of the manufacturer. If requested by the user, some suppliers will also provide a standard spare parts list.

When selecting equipment, users also need to consider their supplier's packaging machine design and application experience. Ensure that suppliers consider all requirements, from space and budget constraints to packaging format and speed. In addition, it is important to ensure that suppliers understand the manufacturing of paper boxes and know what materials are required for their packaging machine production.

Users can choose a supplier who can customize the packaging machine according to requirements, and make slight changes to the design to meet their needs. The so-called customization may only require changing the size or replacing an electronic component when it is easy, or even redesigning an important part of the packaging machine when it is complex. Therefore, in addition to manufacturing packaging machines, suppliers should also have the necessary experience and customization capabilities to provide comprehensive solutions.

Whether it is now or in the future, packaging needs are likely to change. If the user expects that the size of the paper box or product will change in the future, the manufacturer needs to ensure that the selected packaging machine can be modified or can handle different sizes of paper boxes. In addition, users need to figure out whether the speed of the purchased packaging machine can meet the current and future speed requirements.

Pharmaceutical packaging machine enterprises need to practice "internal skills" to increase product added value

The earliest automatic packaging machine used in China was imported from Italy in the mid-1970s. However, due to the inability of domestic packaging materials and drug box processing to meet the requirements of machine packaging at that time, this machine was not widely used. Until the 1980s, there had been significant progress in the quality of drug packaging materials and the processing and manufacturing of drug boxes, and fully automatic box loading machines began to be widely used. Starting from the 1990s, domestically produced automatic cartoning machines began to break the monopoly of foreign products in the market and were used by domestic enterprises. At this point, domestic automatic cartoning machines have embarked on the path of development. After development, domestic drug packaging machines have achieved rapid growth, but their manufacturing and research and development levels still cannot compare with international advanced levels, especially in high-end products.

Xiaojiu learned that currently, the market share of domestic drug packaging machines is relatively small, and most of them are still divided up by imported products. Many large-scale drug manufacturers in China still rely mainly on imported drug packaging machines. Faced with the current industry situation, pharmaceutical packaging machine enterprises need to increase their research investment, enhance their research capabilities, introduce mature foreign technology principles, and develop forward-looking advanced equipment. Enterprises need to start from their own perspective, practice their internal skills, and increase the added value of their products to meet more customer requirements. On the other hand, it is necessary to strengthen industry collaboration, promote the construction of a good industry environment, and change the position of domestic drug packaging machines in the market from inside out.

Long term machinery is the same. Although we have the ability to customize packaging production equipment for pharmaceutical companies and even more industries, in the rapidly changing era, we also need to learn more, look globally, leverage our strengths and weaknesses, and provide more cost-effective packaging machinery for more enterprises! This is not only the development goal and direction of our enterprise, but also the responsibility that domestic manufacturing enterprises should shoulder, and it is also a reflection of the social value of an enterprise!
