Candy Packaging Machine RFQ Inputs & Pre-Shipment FAT Protocol

Complete engineering RFQ template and Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) checklist for gummy, hard candy, lollipop, and chocolate bagging lines.

Qualify Real Candy Flow, Giveaway & Seal Integrity Before Shipment

Testing a candy weigher on dry plastic pellets hides sticky gummy hang-ups, sugar-dust seal leaks, and hard-candy chipping. Anchored in candy machine selection and sizing and candy weighing and dosing specs, ship 25–50 kg of real coated confectionery and two rolls of production film (or 300 premade pouches) for wet FAT qualification.

Record 100 consecutive production bags at target BPM to verify both mean overfill and zero-underweight compliance.

Five-stage confectionery Z-elevator, dimple multihead weigher, and cushioned VFFS/pouch bagging line
Confectionery lines win or lose uptime in the weigher hoppers and transfer chute—anti-stick geometry and drop-height control come first.

Confectionery FAT Qualification Checklist

Require pass sign-off across all five confectionery test criteria:

FAT Criterion Test Method Confectionery Acceptance Target
1. Continuous Sticky Flow 30-min uninterrupted run on oiled/sugared candy Zero radial cone bridging; tare drift <0.2 g between auto-zeros
2. Weight / Count Accuracy 100 consecutive bags weighed on calibrated scale Zero underweight packs; mean giveaway within ±0.15–0.35 g
3. Breakage & Stick Jam Audit Open & inspect 50 finished hard-candy / lollipop bags <0.1% chipped pieces; zero punctured film or stick jams
4. Cross-Seal & Zipper Test Vacuum tank (-0.06 MPa) + manual zipper re-close Zero micro-leaks through sugar dust; 100% smooth zipper track
5. Washdown Disassembly Timed strip & re-hang of pans, chutes, and buckets Tool-free strip completed in <15 minutes; auto-calibration clean

Review turnkey integration deliverables on turnkey candy packaging lines.

Product giveaway reduction from 5% volumetric overfill down to 0.5% on combinatorial multihead weighers
Cutting average overfill by 3–4 grams per 200 g gummy pouch pays back precision multihead weighing within 12–24 months.

Confectionery Engineering Details

  • Collect Forming Collar & Gripper Drawings: Archive exact dimensions of every forming tube and pouch gripper jaw for rapid future reorders.
  • Verify HMI Recipe Presets: Pre-save vibration amplitudes, hopper dwell delays, and jaw temperatures for each SKU before crating.
  • Inspect Spares Kit: Confirm spare PTFE tapes, cutter blades, silicone vacuum cups, timing belts, and heater cartridges are packed.

Confectionery surface texture mapped to dimple/PTFE contact tooling, drop cushioning, and bag styles
Sugar-sanded gummies, sticky toffees, brittle hard drops, and stick lollipops each require distinct hopper angles and contact coatings.
