Food Tube Filling Machine With Data – Recording Function | Discus Technology

A food tube filling machine with a data recording function is an essential tool for modern food manufacturers seeking to enhance traceability, quality control, and operational transparency in compliance with strict industry regulations. This function captures, stores, and organizes critical production data throughout the filling process, creating a comprehensive digital record that can be accessed, analyzed, and reported as needed. The machine’s sensors and PLC system continuously collect data points such as batch numbers, production start/end times, fill volumes, tube counts, filling speeds, seal temperatures, and operator IDs. Additionally, it records quality control metrics including reject rates, reasons for rejection (e.g., underfill, seal failure), and calibration results, providing a complete audit trail for each production run. The data is stored locally on secure memory modules or cloud based platforms, ensuring durability and accessibility for long term record keeping—often meeting regulatory requirements for data retention periods. Advanced systems offer real time data visualization through dashboards, allowing supervisors to monitor production performance, identify trends, and make immediate adjustments to improve efficiency or address quality issues. Data can be exported in standard formats (such as CSV or PDF) for integration with quality management systems (QMS) or ERP software, facilitating compliance reporting for regulatory bodies like the FDA or EFSA. In the event of a product recall or quality investigation, the data recording function enables rapid traceability, pinpointing specific batches, production times, or machine settings associated with the issue. By documenting every aspect of the filling process, this feature not only ensures regulatory compliance but also supports continuous improvement initiatives, helping manufacturers optimize processes, reduce waste, and build trust in their product quality.
