Candy Wrapping Machine RFQ Inputs & Pre-Shipment FAT Protocol

Engineering RFQ checklist and live Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) protocol for double-twist, pillow flow-wrap, foil bunch, and lollipop wrapping machines.

Prove High-Speed Registration, Seal Tightness & Zero-Piece Standby at FAT

A wrapper that cycles empty film smoothly at 400 PPM can still scuff candies or drift eye-marks once real sugar-dusted pieces and printed reels are loaded. Anchored in candy wrapper sizing and selection and candy wrapping film and sealing specs, ship 15–30 kg of real production candies and 2–3 printed film reels for pre-shipment FAT.

Run sustained 30-minute endurance blocks at contracted nominal PPM while measuring empty-wrap rate, broken-piece rate, and seal integrity.

Five-stage single-piece candy disc sorting, smart phasing, eye-mark registration, and wrapping sequence
At 200–800 pieces per minute, gentle feed-disc pocket capture and no-product-no-film servo standby determine net shift yield.

Single-Piece Wrapper FAT Qualification Protocol

Require documented pass/fail sign-off on all five test blocks:

FAT Test Block Test Procedure Pass Acceptance Standard
1. Sustained Speed & Feed 30-min run at contracted nominal PPM on real candy ≥98.5% net good wraps; <0.2% crushed/scuffed pieces
2. Eye-Mark Registration Measure print cutoff across 100 consecutive wraps Within ±0.5–1.0 mm of artwork target window
3. No-Candy / No-Paper Test Intentionally starve infeed gaps at full speed Zero empty sealed/twisted wrappers discharged
4. Hermetic / Twist Audit Vacuum water-bath (-0.06 MPa) on HFFS; shake test on twist 100% leak-free pillow seals; <5% untwist after bulk drop
5. Auto-Splice & Recipe Swap Trigger reel splice at speed + recall second SKU length Clean splice eject; format swap completed within target minutes

Wrap geometry—twisted tails, fin-sealed pillow ends, or dead-fold foil—locks the mechanical machine family before speed is selected.

High-Speed Wrapping Engineering Notes

  • Thermal Camera Check on Chocolate Runs: Verify bed-plate and jaw housing surface temperatures remain below 24 °C during sustained cold-seal chocolate tests.
  • Archive Custom Pocket & Former Drawings: Keep CNC drawings and part numbers for every feed disc, folding box, and crimper anvil.
  • Verify Wear Kit: Confirm spare rotary knives, twist grippers, heater cartridges, belts, and photoeyes are crated with the machine.
