Project Overview

Ibn AI-Haytham Pharma Co., a pharmaceutical company in Syria, needed a more stable and accurate packaging system for paracetamol powder stick packs.

The customer’s existing production faced common pharmaceutical powder packaging problems, including inaccurate filling, powder trapping in the sealing area, unstable machine performance, and insufficient capacity for new orders.

EIXPACK supplied a customized 6-lane paracetamol powder stick pack packaging solution with automatic feeding, short auger dosing, forming and sealing, date coding, and cutting functions.

For pharmaceutical factories and contract manufacturers looking for similar powder applications, this project is closely related to EIXPACK’s powder stick pack machine solution, which can be configured according to powder behavior, target output, bag style, and production layout.

Client Challenges

1. Inaccurate Filling Affected Product Consistency

The customer needed more stable powder dosing for paracetamol powder. Inaccurate filling can lead to product giveaway, underfilled packs, rework, and quality control pressure, especially in pharmaceutical production where consistency is critical.

2. Powder Trapping Reduced Sealing Quality

Paracetamol powder is prone to dusting and product trapping. When powder enters the sealing area, it may affect seal integrity, increase rejection rates, and create visible package defects.

3. Existing Machine Instability Limited Production Planning

The customer’s existing equipment could not provide the stability required for continuous pharmaceutical powder production. Unstable operation may cause downtime, inconsistent output, delayed delivery, and higher maintenance pressure.

4. Production Capacity Could Not Support New Orders

The customer needed to reach up to 240 packs per minute. Low capacity can limit order acceptance, reduce delivery reliability, and prevent the company from scaling pharmaceutical powder stick pack production.

5. Moisture Sensitivity Required Better Packaging Control

The packaged powder is moisture-sensitive. Poor packaging control may increase the risk of product quality changes, powder caking, or reduced shelf presentation quality.

Project Goals

The main goal of this project was to help Ibn AI-Haytham Pharma Co. build a more stable, accurate, and scalable pharmaceutical powder stick pack production line.

Key project goals included:

  • Increase packaging output up to 240 packs per minute
  • Improve filling accuracy to a target tolerance of ±0.5%, depending on final dose weight, powder properties, and production conditions
  • Achieve a target non-trapping qualified rate of 99.5%
  • Reduce powder trapping in the sealing area
  • Improve machine stability for continuous pharmaceutical production
  • Reduce dependence on manual packaging and manual inspection pressure
  • Support future order growth and production expansion

Our Solution

EIXPACK provided a customized 6-lane Paracetamol Powder Stick Pack Packaging Machines system for this project. The solution was designed around the customer’s key requirements: higher production speed, better filling accuracy, reduced powder trapping, stable sealing, and pharmaceutical production reliability.

Automatic Feeding System

The automatic feeder helps transfer paracetamol powder into the dosing system in a more controlled and continuous way. This reduces manual feeding pressure, supports stable production, and helps maintain consistent material supply across the 6-lane system.

Short Auger Dosing System

The short auger dosing system was selected for quantitative powder filling. For dust-prone pharmaceutical powder, the dosing structure helps improve filling consistency, reduce overfilling, and support the customer’s target filling accuracy.

Forming and Sealing System

The forming and sealing system converts roll film into stick packs and seals each pack after dosing. For paracetamol powder, stable film forming and clean sealing are important because powder trapped in the sealing area may affect package quality.

Date Coding System

The integrated date coder supports batch information, production date, expiry date, or other required coding content, depending on the customer’s packaging and market requirements.

Cutting System

The cutting system is configured to produce rounded-corner easy-tear stick packs. This helps improve package appearance, reduce sharp edges, and provide a better opening experience for end users.

Integrated Multi-lane System Design

The 6-lane layout integrates feeding, dosing, forming, sealing, coding, and cutting into one automatic packaging system. Compared with slower or unstable equipment, this multi-lane solution is better suited for pharmaceutical factories and contract manufacturers that need higher capacity and more stable batch production.

Why This Solution Fits Paracetamol Powder

Paracetamol powder is dust-prone, moisture-sensitive, and easy to trap during sealing. The selected system focuses on controlled powder feeding, quantitative short auger dosing, stable bag forming, clean sealing, and consistent cutting. This makes the solution suitable for pharmaceutical powder stick pack production where accuracy, hygiene, package consistency, and production stability are all important.

Why This Solution Works

This solution works because it is built around the real behavior of paracetamol powder. Instead of only increasing machine speed, the project focused on powder feeding stability, short auger quantitative dosing, clean sealing, controlled cutting, and continuous multi-lane production.

For pharmaceutical powder packaging, unstable filling and sealing contamination can directly affect production cost, package quality, and delivery reliability. The 6-lane stick pack configuration helps the customer reach higher capacity while maintaining better control over each packaging step.

The rounded-corner easy-tear stick pack format also supports better consumer experience and cleaner product presentation, which is important for pharmaceutical brands and contract manufacturers serving regulated or quality-sensitive markets.
