Customer Pain Points

Problem Customer Faced

For Business (B2B)

Inability of Production Efficiency to Meet Market Demand?

Existing production lines are slow, lowly automated, with high failures and downtime, yielding insufficient output. They can't handle surging orders or rapid new launches, bottlenecking growth. Symptoms: slow cycles, poor machine coordination, heavy manual intervention.

High Energy Consumption and Maintenance Costs of Traditional Equipment?

Older equipment uses inefficient drives (pneumatic, high-power motors) and wear-prone structures, wasting electricity and air. Frequent repairs raise costs for parts, technicians, and services, keeping maintenance expenses high.

High Defect Rate Caused by Poor Equipment Stability?

Poor accuracy, complex setups, and fluctuations cause defects: inaccurate filling, loose caps, misaligned labels, bad seals, damaged film. High defects waste materials, add rework labor, raise costs, and damage brand reputation.

For B2C Clients

Large Equipment Footprint, Cannot Fit in the Workspace?

Traditional equipment prioritizes function, resulting in bulky designs. SMEs and creators face limited workshop/studio space; oversized machines can't fit or encroach on operations, preventing automated production implementation.

Difficulty Achieving Small-Batch Production?

Large lines suit mass single-item production but require lengthy, labor-intensive changeovers. SMEs need frequent switches for varied, small-batch products; replacing molds and adjusting parameters takes hours, with high costs, unfit for flexible manufacturing.

Complex Equipment Operation Requires Specialized Skills

Complex interfaces with jargon intimidate users, demanding extensive training. SMEs lack engineers, facing high costs, operational risks, and reliance on external support for issues.

Why Choose Us

Lipstick/Lip Balm Packaging Solution Technical Highlights

High-Precision Paste Dosing & Temperature Control

Utilizing a high-precision servo filling system with both gravimetric/volumetric modes , achieving ultra-high filling accuracy (e.g., ±0.1% ). Specifically for lipsticks, lip balms, and other high-viscosity pastes, the system integrates precise temperature control and stirring functions to ensure the flowability and uniformity of the material. A unique anti-drip nozzle design ensures the cleanliness of the filling machine operation.

Patented Adaptive Capping & Precision Labeling

Featuring patented technologies such as adaptive bottle neck positioning and anti-slip capping, significantly enhancing the versatility and stability of the capping machine for oddly shaped lipstick tubes and complex caps. The labeling machine utilizes a high-precision vision system, ensuring precise and perfect placement of the label, boosting the final aesthetic quality of the lipstick packaging.

Fully Integrated High-Speed Flexible Line Solution

Offering a one-stop fully integrated solution covering paste filling, capping, labeling machine to cartoning machine, overwrapping machine, and palletizing robot. The entire line is centrally managed with smart control via the MES system, ensuring optimized rhythm matching between all equipment for high production capacity in lipstick packaging. The modular design allows for quick mold changeovers to accommodate various tube and box types.

Compact Modular Design & Small Batch Flexible Production

The equipment features a compact and modular structure design, effectively saving floor space. This optimized layout supports various configurations like straight-line/L-shaped, enabling flexible adaptation to small workshops and the small batch, multi-SKU lipstick production demands with frequent changeovers. It achieves high-efficiency automation within limited space.

Efficient End-of-Line Packaging & Logistics Optimization

Offering comprehensive secondary and tertiary packaging automation, including cartoning machine, automatic overwrapping machine (transparent film packaging), case packer, and robot palletizer. The entire line features real-time monitoring and traceability functions, capable of efficiently and neatly packaging small lipstick boxes, strips, and master cases. This ensures product damage reduction during logistics, critical for enhancing overall cosmetic packaging efficiency.

Customized High-Precision Filling for Lipstick/Lip Gloss

For highly viscous products like lipstick and lip gloss, we customize High-Precision Filling Machines for accurate dosing in the 10ml−500ml range (customizable). Using the intelligent weighing module , filling accuracy is maintained at ±0.2g , effectively eliminating Overfilling to save raw materials for high-value cosmetics. This is key to building an accurate Cosmetic Filling Line.

Integrated Capping and Cartoning for Irregular Packaging

SICI’s Universal Filling & Packing Line handles various containers for lip products, including special-shaped bottles and glass bottles. We provide seamless integration from the Auto Capping Machine to the Cartoning Machine , using a multi-function manipulator to ensure damage-free handling. The equipment features Quick Changeover , requiring minimal fixture adjustment for different bottle types.

Customized Multi-Pack/Gift Box Cartoning and Overwrapping

For lipstick sets or gift boxes, we customize the Full Servo Cartoning Machine for precise, high-speed cartoning of multiple products and leaflets/liners. This is followed by a Overwrapping Machine for cellophane overwrap, providing moisture-proof, dust-proof secondary packaging protection. This solution is ideal for enhancing product Shelf Appeal and anti-counterfeit features.

How To Choose

How to Choose Your Machine: What You Need to Know

1.What is the Material Form of Your Lipstick Product?

To select the right lipstick filling machine, you must first clarify whether your product is a solid paste (like traditional lipstick), liquid lip gloss, or a viscous lip balm. Different forms require specialized filling technology; for example, solid lipsticks need precise heating, melting, and mold cooling systems. Lip gloss filling may require high-precision metering pumps to ensure color shade and dosage consistency. Choosing equipment that meets cosmetic filling standards is fundamental for product quality and efficient production.

2.What Type of Container Do You Use for Lipstick Packaging?

The structure of the lipstick container is key to selecting the packaging equipment. Are you using tubes, pens, or specialty-shaped bottles? The container diameter (e.g., 28-100mm ), height (e.g., 35-200mm ), and the need for an auto capping machine or auto tube sealing machine will influence your equipment choice. For high-end, customized lipstick casings, you will require a system with universal filling & packing line compatibility and an adjustable mold feature to ensure flexible production and quick changeover.

3.What is the Desired Output for Your Lipstick Production Line?

Your target output is the core factor determining the required automation level and filling speed. Startups or small batches may only need a semi-automatic or low-speed full-automatic filling machine. However, for large-scale brands, a high-speed filling line is necessary. For example, if you target 60 bottles per minute (based on 150ml lotion) or higher , you need a fully automatic customize filling and packing line to ensure stable, large-scale cosmetic production and maximize ROI.

4. Which Downstream Machines Complete a Full Lipstick Packaging Line?

After filling and capping, lipstick packaging requires secondary and tertiary processes. Key downstream equipment includes: a Cartoning Machine Series to place finished lipsticks into retail boxes; an Overwrapping Machine Series (or automatic transparent film wrapper) for heat-sealing film around the cartons; and a Labeling Machine Series for compliance or anti-counterfeit labels. For large-volume shipping, you will also need a Case Packer Series and robot palletizers to build a complete automated packaging line.

5. Are There Special Requirements for Your Production Space and Process?

Large micellar water packaging lines require careful consideration of space dimensions and layout, possibly necessitating a U-shaped or expandable layout to accommodate physical limitations. You must also confirm if a GMP-compliant aseptic filling environment is required. Furthermore, the line design must feature easy clean-down and support multi-specification recipe memory and one-touch recall for flexible production management.
