Reclosable Zipper Presentation Without Sugar-Contaminated Seals
Premium gummies, chocolate bites, sour belts, and sharing-size confections rely on stand-up press-to-close zipper pouches that re-seal cleanly after opening. Under candy packaging machines, this hub covers gummy rotary zipper pouch lines and jar and rigid container candy lines.
Published 8-station rotary pouch series (200Pro, 260Pro, 300Pro, 360Pro) handle pouch widths from 100–220 mm up to 200–360 mm at 25–60 pouches/min with servo-driven width changeover.
Rotary Premade Pouch Series Specifications

Confectionery Engineering Details
- Zipper-Shielding Funnel: A diving fill funnel extends past the open plastic zipper track during multihead discharge so sticky sugar crystals never prevent consumer re-closure.
- Two-Stage Heat + Chill Bar: Station 6 melts the PE sealant layer while Station 7 clamps with a chilled bar, preventing heavy 500 g candy drops from pulling warm seams open.
- No-Pouch / No-Open Interlocks: Optical/vacuum verification skips multihead discharge if a pouch fails to open fully, sending the empty bag out for reuse.
Pouch Sample Qualification
Ship 150 empty pouches across all artwork finishes (matte, soft-touch, metallic) to verify vacuum suction-cup grip and seal bar temperature.
