Because the food industry is increasingly related to the future development of the packaging machinery industry, it can be said that the food industry is the next savior of packaging machinery. According to the results of survey data on food packaging machinery problems of more than 800 food manufacturers in the United States. Among all the mechanical equipment, the most used ones are continuous packaging machines, then mechanical conveyors, packaging cameras, stacking machines, etc., and many new packaging machines such as grinding machines have not been popularized. Another item in the survey is about the company's future purchase plan for packaging machinery. The survey data shows that the order of demand is in the order of tensile grinding machines, continuous packaging machines, palletizers, box machines, mechanical conveyors, and There is a willingness to increase the level of mechanization and automation, but the equipment providers that meet their needs account for only one-fifth of the entire manufacturing industry, and some are preparing to buy semi-old machines, although these machines are not fully satisfied. Performance requirements, but can save considerable expenses, the survey data also shows that 63% of manufacturers do not plan to buy new machinery in the next year, mainly small and medium enterprises. At present, the packaging of these small and medium-sized enterprises is mainly based on manual work plus semi-automatic packaging equipment, and the mechanical rate is below 50%. The recall shows the reasons for purchasing packaging equipment, in which the automation level is increased by 42.3%, the production cost is reduced by 30.8%, the production level is adjusted to 23.1% in the new environment, and the packaging quality of the product is increased by 19.2%. The scale is 19.2%, and the upgrade of the old equipment is 3.8%. Packaging machinery performance requirements: speed 18%, the product should be more flexible 14%, most of the companies involved in the survey did not mention the combination of computer technology. The main factors they need to consider in the process of purchasing equipment are: quality, cost, and service. Factors such as product characteristics, past success stories, and manufacturer evaluations are no longer considered. Now the main factor that manufacturers are considering to develop new packaging is the cost of 92.8%, followed by the product's attractiveness of 85.6%, and there are no special requirements for mechanical performance.
