Picture this: It's Tuesday morning. You are the production manager at a busy cosmetic factory. Your marketing team just sent down an urgent order for the new "Summer Glow" lotion. It’s a fantastic product that is going to fly off the shelves, but there is one huge problem for you.
The bottle is square.
The current line is running round bottles for shampoo. To switch over, your team has to stop the machine, dismantle the current molds (pucks), run to the warehouse, find the specific molds for the square bottle, haul them back, install them, and spend hours debugging the position.
Sound familiar? This is the "Changeover Nightmare." It kills efficiency, it eats up profits, and frankly, it gives you a massive headache.
But what if I told you that the days of buying thousands of plastic molds for every new bottle shape are over? What if your machine could adapt to a new bottle just like a human hand adjusts its grip?
Welcome to the era of the Universal Filling & Packing Line. Let's dive deep into how this technology is changing the game for SICI clients worldwide.
In the old days, you could run one shampoo bottle for three years without changing a thing. Those days are gone.
Today, consumer trends shift overnight. One week it’s serums in tiny glass droppers; the next, it’s body wash in massive, curvy PET bottles. Brands—especially those in Makeup and Skin Care—need to launch products fast to stay relevant.
Traditional filling lines rely on fixed molds. If you have 10 different bottle shapes, you need 10 sets of molds.
Storage costs: Where do you put them all?
Time costs: Physical changeover takes hours, leading to significant downtime.
Money costs: Every time marketing designs a new bottle, you have to pay a machinist to cut new molds.
This is where SICI’s Universal Filling & Packing Line enters the chat to save your budget.
Think of a traditional machine like a tailored suit—it fits only one person perfectly. The Universal Filling & Packing Line is like a high-tech, self-adjusting suit that fits everyone.
The core philosophy here is simple: "No limit on materials, no limit on packaging materials". Whether you are filling glass, plastic, PET, or ceramic, the machine doesn't care. It treats them all with the same precision.
Instead of a static piece of plastic holding your bottle, our system uses an Adjustable Mold mechanism. It physically expands or contracts to grip the bottle securely, regardless of its geometry. This effectively realizes the "Universal Bottle Mold" concept integrated into a complete line.
You might be asking, "Is this magic?" No, it’s advanced engineering designed for the Makeup and Personal Care industries.
Imagine the aperture of a camera lens. It opens and closes smoothly to let in the right amount of light. Our adjustable molds work similarly. They center the bottle automatically.
Round bottles are easy. But what about that polygonal toner bottle? Or the flat, oval foundation bottle? The SICI Universal Filling & Packing Line handles bottle dimensions from Φ28mm up to 100mm（customized）. It grips them firmly for filling, capping, and labeling, ensuring the bottle doesn't spin or wobble.
We know that in a factory, time is money. If you are producing 60 bottles per minute (based on 150ml lotion), every minute of downtime is 60 bottles lost.
With traditional machines, you need a mechanic with a wrench to manually adjust the piston stroke. With SICI’s line, we utilize a "One key to adjust filling volume" feature.
Need to switch from a travel-size serum to a family-size body lotion? You punch the parameters into the touch screen, and the servo motors do the rest. The Filling Range is massive, covering everything from 20ml to 1000ml.
We don't just build machines; we "Create Smart Factory" solutions. The Universal Filling & Packing Line isn't a standalone island; it's part of a connected ecosystem.
The machine features AI Intelligent Interconnection. This isn't just a buzzword. It means the machine works smarter, not harder.
If you run a modern facility, you likely use an MES to track production. SICI machines are designed to "connect to the MES system" seamlessly. You can sit in your office and see exactly what the filling accuracy is.
The system is designed to "interact with the robot". Whether it’s a robotic arm placing bottles on the conveyor or a Robot Palletizer stacking boxes at the end of the line, the Universal Filling & Packing Line speaks their language.
For the engineers reading this, let’s talk numbers. You want to know if this beast can handle your load.
Production Speed: It cruises at 60 bottles/minute.
Accuracy: We are talking ±0.5g for volumes up to 100ml and ±0.5% for larger volumes. That means less product giveaway and more profit.
Applicable Bottle Height: It handles everything from 35mm to 200mm high.
Power: It runs on a robust 12KW system.
Let's be honest. High-tech equipment is an investment. But let’s look at the math.
If a set of custom molds costs you thousands of dollars and you launch 5 products a year, the savings add up immediately. You stop buying plastic pucks that just gather dust.
You no longer need a dedicated setup crew to come in on the weekend to change the line over for Monday morning. One operator can handle the "One key adjust" process.
There are many machine builders in China. Why trust Wuxi Sici Auto Co., Ltd.?
We don't just claim to be good; the market says we are. We serve international giants like P&G, Unilever, PROYA, and Beijing Tongrentang. When companies with those strict standards trust us, you know we deliver quality.
A machine is only as good as its parts. We refuse to cut corners. We use components from Siemens, Omron, Schneider, Panasonic, and SMC. This ensures that if you are in Europe or the Americas, you can find spare parts easily.
We are a National High-Tech Enterprise with over 100 patents. Plus, our machines are ISO9001 and EU CE certified. We play by international rules.
The cosmetic industry is moving fast. If your production line takes 4 hours to switch from a round bottle to a square one, you are already behind.
