Since 1977, Major-IPC has been serving several industrial sectors, and packaging is one of them. With our wide gamut of products and services, we know how to expertly handle clients’ application requirements based on their unique operations. What are the kinds of screws used for Packaging Industry? The packaging industry basically uses screws for propulsion. This specific screw design is known as timing screw or a feed screw that are commonly found in conveyor systems.
Here, the product is fed to different machines along the production line. Basically, two types of timing screws are used in packaging industry:

  • A quick change feed screw
  • A dedicated feed screw

Quick change feed screw is used by the packaging industry to save time and money. At times, packaging companies use the same machines to package different products. However, these products may not be of same sizes or shapes, and hence some parts of the machine require changes. Quick change feed screws help here in reducing the downtime between installations and conversions, allowing for optimal savings and productivity. These screws are color coded to assist the quick and easy changes in the production process. Dedicated feed screws are used for machines that are allotted to a single product with similar size and shape throughout the production process. These are large screws that filter products along with the production line and are not replaced with any different form of screw. When it comes to the packaging industry, timing and accuracy play an important role to maintain consistency in the production line and its safe and smooth running. Feed screws are often used as line control devices, where they can accelerate, decelerate, divide or combine the container flow. What do we offer at Major-IPC?
