In a modern factory in eastern Egypt, the heat waves are accompanied by the hum of the machine, and workers used to bend over and busy on the manual packaging line day after day. But now, the neatly arranged silver equipment in the workshop is running at a steady rhythm-this is the aseptic packaging machine from the ply-pack factory in China.
At the end of last year, the research and development team of the ply-pack factory launched three new aseptic packaging machines to meet the packaging needs of the Middle East market in high temperature environments. Amir, the production director of a food company in Egypt, recalled: "In the past, we relied on manual packaging, which was not only inefficient, but also affected by temperature and humidity. The aseptic packaging machine of ply-pack has completely changed all this."
The aseptic packaging technology of this equipment is the core breakthrough. With the built-in hydrogen peroxide atomization sterilization module and fully sealed transmission system, the machine can complete the aseptic process from filling to sealing within 30 seconds, replacing the five traditional manual operations. Amir added: "After the equipment was put into operation, our packaging efficiency increased by 70%, labor costs were reduced by half, and customer feedback on the shelf life of the product became more stable." From the perspective of the supply chain, the ply-pack factory provides customized services for Egyptian customers. The technical team went to the local area for inspection three months in advance and incorporated details such as high-temperature dustproof design and Arabic operating interface into equipment research and development. The head of the supplier collaboration department said: "We have joined forces with German bearing suppliers and Japanese motor manufacturers to ensure that key components adapt to the desert climate and shorten the delivery cycle by 40%." As the global food and pharmaceutical industry's demand for automated packaging solutions surges, the ply-pack factory is accelerating the layout of smart production lines. The general manager of the factory emphasized at an internal meeting: "The Egyptian case has verified our technical direction - in the future, aseptic packaging machines will be upgraded to modular and low-energy consumption, helping more companies to say goodbye to manual dependence." On the streets of Cairo, date products that were once unsalable due to insufficient packaging efficiency are now being exported to Europe through aseptic packaging technology. This is not only a microcosm of the technical strength of the ply-pack factory, but also a vivid footnote to the deep integration of Chinese smart manufacturing and the global industrial chain.
