Common Issues in the PP woven block bottom valve Bag-Making Process and Solutions

The PP woven block bottom valve bag-making machine, renowned for its high efficiency and eco-friendly design, is widely used in producing industrial packaging such as cement and chemical bags. However, during actual production, operators and maintenance teams often encounter various issues that can affect production efficiency and product quality. This article provides an in-depth analysis of these common challenges and offers practical solutions to help businesses maximize their equipment performance.

1. Common Issues During Production

1.1 Instability in Heat Sealing

Symptoms:

Weak sealing at the bag’s top or bottom, leading to cracks or tears during use.

Uneven sealing temperature or pressure, resulting in poor sealing or burn marks.

Causes:

Improper heat-sealing temperature settings (too high or too low).

Worn or contaminated sealing plates, causing uneven pressure distribution.

Subpar quality of sealing materials, such as uneven polypropylene coatings.

Solutions:

Regularly calibrate the temperature control system to ensure accurate heating.

Clean and replace sealing plates periodically to maintain a smooth and contaminant-free surface.

Use high-quality raw materials and work with suppliers to ensure consistent coating quality.

The professionally designed heat-sealing welding system of Gachn-Jeenar valve bag making machine uses unique technology to achieve uniform blowing and constant air volume, and adopts a constant temperature control system to achieve stable and reliable welding temperature.

In particular, the independently developed bottom sticker adsorption roller transfer mechanism solves the problem of easy corner folding when transferring the loose and tight edges of the material, and can be used normally. Single-sided laminating materials can also be easily pasted in place, and the product yield rate is high.

1.2 Printing Misalignment

Symptoms:

Misaligned graphics or text on the bag surface.

Uneven or inconsistent ink application, leading to color discrepancies.

Causes:

Malfunctioning alignment system in the printing machine.

Unstable ink quality, resulting in uneven application.

Operator errors during parameter adjustments.

Solutions:

Inspect and maintain the alignment sensors and synchronization controls of the printing machine.

Use high-quality inks and adjust viscosity based on environmental temperature and humidity.

Provide comprehensive operator training to improve accuracy in machine adjustments.

Gachn-Jeenar valve bag making machine can be equipped with an AI visual inspection system to detect defects in the printing surface. The equipment automatically discharges waste, reducing the risk of manual waste bags being missed, improving product quality while saving worry and effort.

1.3 Inaccurate Bag Cutting

Symptoms:

Inconsistent bag lengths with rough or slanted edges.

Overcut or undercut bags, disrupting subsequent production processes.

Causes:

Worn cutting blades leading to uneven edges.

Faulty sensors failing to accurately detect bag length.

Mismatch between the cutting system’s rhythm and the feeding speed.

Solutions:

Replace or sharpen blades regularly to ensure precise cuts.

Check and recalibrate sensors to improve length detection accuracy.

Optimize the synchronization between the feeding system and cutting unit。

Gachn-Jeenar valve bag bag making machine can be equipped with an AI visual inspection system to detect defects caused by the bag making process. The equipment automatically discharges waste, reduces manual bag picking, improves product quality and saves time and effort.

1.4 Unstable Material Feeding

Symptoms:

Material jams or slips during feeding.

Irregular feeding causes interruptions in downstream processes.

Causes:

Foreign objects or debris in the feeding channel obstruct smooth material flow.

Aging or damaged rollers impair feeding performance.

Improper tension settings, causing the material to be either too loose or too tight.

Solutions:

Regularly clean the feeding channel to remove debris and ensure unobstructed flow.

Replace aging or damaged rollers with wear-resistant components.

Inspect the tension control system and adjust it to achieve optimal tightness.

The tension control system of Gachn-Jeenar valve bag making machine is stable, and the low-tension conveying system realizes stable and reliable high-speed unwinding and conveying of the base fabric. In addition, our equipment adopts a bag body steering mechanism controlled by a vacuum system to achieve efficient transfer of the bag body in the vertical direction of movement, which is fast and stable, and completely avoids the problem of unsmooth feeding.

1.5 Substandard Product Quality

Symptoms:

Uneven bag thickness, compromising strength and appearance.

Leaking bag bottoms or insufficient sealing, reducing the bag’s performance.

Causes:

Inconsistent material supply or fluctuations in raw material quality.

Environmental factors such as temperature and humidity impacting heat-sealing results.

Failure to monitor production parameters in real time.

Solutions:

Rigorously select suppliers and ensure a consistent quality of raw materials.

Install temperature and humidity monitors in the production area and adjust conditions as needed.

Utilize smart monitoring systems for real-time feedback on production parameters and make adjustments promptly.

Gachn-Jeenar valve bag making machine can be equipped with an AI visual inspection system that can detect bag base fabric defects, or an AI visual inspection system that can detect bag making defects, or even an AI visual inspection system that can detect printing defects according to customer needs. Equipped with an AI visual inspection system, the equipment automatically discharges waste, improving product quality while saving worry and effort.

2. Common Maintenance Issues and Remedies

2.1 Frequent Equipment Downtime

Symptoms:

Frequent equipment malfunctions disrupt continuous production.

Difficulties in identifying and fixing faults quickly.

Solutions:

Establish a regular maintenance schedule for critical components.

Train skilled technicians capable of swiftly diagnosing and resolving issues.

Incorporate predictive maintenance systems to monitor and anticipate potential failures.

Gachn-Jeenar's valve bag making machine uses a data monitoring system combined with cloud control technology to achieve data collection and remote equipment diagnosis, making efficient production and maintenance possible.

2.2 Delays in Spare Part Replacement

Symptoms:

Prolonged downtime due to a lack of replacement parts.

Solutions:

Build partnerships with multiple suppliers to ensure a stable spare parts supply chain.

Maintain an inventory of essential spare parts to minimize waiting times.

Gachn-Jeenar can also provide accessories for various types of bag making machines on the market, with superior quality and high cost performance, ensuring you have no worries.
