The properties of magnesium and packaging requirements
Magnesium is a silvery-white, lightweight alkaline earth metal with the chemical symbol Mg and atomic number 12. As an important industrial raw material, magnesium powder possesses the following characteristics:
Low density (1.74 g/cm³), making it the lightest among practical metals
Active chemical properties, readily reacting with oxygen to form magnesium oxide
Flammability in powder form, prone to combustion upon contact with fire or high temperatures
Excellent thermal conductivity and electromagnetic shielding properties
Based on these characteristics, the packaging of magnesium powder requires special attention:
Equipment Overview
Our company specializes in manufacturing ton bag packaging machines, which are large-bag packaging equipment specifically designed for powdery materials such as magnesium powder. These machines feature high automation levels, excellent packaging accuracy, moreover, and outstanding explosion-proof performance.
Working principle
Magnesium powder is filled into the bag through a spiral feeding or gravity feeding method.
Additionally, high-precision weighing sensors monitor the weight in real time.
The feeding stops automatically when the preset weight is reached.
Explosion-proof Design: Motors and electrical components meet explosion-proof requirements, preventing the risk of magnesium powder explosion
Dust Removal System: Equipped with an efficient dust removal device to maintain a clean working environment
User-Friendly Operation: Additionally, it features a touchscreen control with simple parameter settings.
Modular Structure: In particular, it facilitates maintenance and cleaning.
Our company not only offers single-ton packaging equipment, but also provides complete production line solutions for our clients. To illustrate, Take the magnesium powder processing production line we designed and implemented for Japanese customers as an example. The system includes:
Negative pressure transportation, preventing dust from escaping
Capacity of 5-10 tons per hour
Fully enclosed design, in line with GMP requirements
Multi-layer vibrating screen design
Capable of precisely classifying magnesium powder of different particle sizes
Convenient screen mesh replacement
Made of stainless steel, resistant to corrosion
Equipped with level monitoring system
Volume selectable from 5 to 50 m³
As mentioned before, high-performance packaging equipment
Seamless connection with upstream equipment
PLC centralized control
Data recording and traceability function
Remote monitoring option
Specifically, this production line demonstrates our comprehensive strength in the field of powder processing. From raw material reception all the way to finished product packaging, in essence, it offers a one-stop solution. We can customize production lines with different production capacities and different levels of automation according to the specific needs of our customers, and have successfully exported to multiple countries and regions such as Japan, South Korea, and Europe.
Our company has extensive project experience and technical resources, and is capable of providing customers with comprehensive services ranging from single machines to entire lines, and furthermore, from design to installation and commissioning. Whether it is magnesium powder, aluminum powder, or powder materials from industries such as chemicals and food, we can offer the most suitable packaging and production line solutions.
