HFFS Application

Instant Noodle Flow Wrapping Machine

Dry instant noodle cakes are light, brittle and regularly shaped. Horizontal flow wrapping can enclose square or round noodle blocks in pillow film when transfers, guides and end-seal timing protect the product and keep loose fragments away from the sealing area.

Protecting Brittle Noodle Cakes

  • Provide cake length, width, height, weight, shape and acceptable breakage level.
  • Transfers and infeed flights should minimize drops, impacts and product overlap.
  • Guides need clearance for product variation without allowing excessive rotation.
  • Crumbs and broken noodles should be removed before the end-sealing jaws.

  • Bag dimensions should protect corners and leave clean seal clearance.
  • Square and round cakes may require different guides, forming sets and recipes.
  • Coding, multipack handling and downstream cartoning should be defined before testing.

Production Verification
