We machine production parts for Packaging Machinery customers, from single prototypes through to repeat batches of tens of thousands. Typical work covers star wheels, change parts and filler valves, usually in 304 or POM.
What makes Packaging Machinery different from general machining is not the geometry — it is the documentation and the failure modes. The parts that come back are the ones where change-over time is the customer’s real cost, so tooling must be repeatable was not designed out at the start.
Parts we machine for Packaging Machinery
- Star wheels
- Change parts
- Filler valves
- Conveyor components
- Cutting dies
Materials we run for Packaging Machinery
- 304
- POM
- UHMW-PE
- 6061
- Tool steel
Standards and documentation
- ISO 14159 hygiene, EU 1935/2004 for food contact
Tell us which standard applies and which documents you need with the shipment. Dimensional reports, material certificates, certificates of conformity and first article inspection reports are all available, and it is much cheaper to agree them before the batch runs than to reconstruct them afterwards.
Where Packaging Machinery projects usually go wrong
- Change-over time is the customer’s real cost, so tooling must be repeatable
- Abrasive product wears plastic parts fast
Tolerance and finish we hold
| Requirement | Typical capability |
|---|---|
| General tolerance | +/-0.05 mm on change parts so they are interchangeable without adjustment |
| Surface finish | Ra 0.4 to 3.2 um |
| Material certification | EN 10204 3.1 on request |
| Inspection | Dimensional report, CMM report, FAIR |
| Packaging | VCI and desiccant for steel, individual wrap for cosmetic faces |
Frequently asked questions
Do you have experience with Packaging Machinery parts?
Yes. Typical parts we run are star wheels and change parts. We can share the process route and inspection approach for a comparable part before you commit.
Which materials do you recommend for Packaging Machinery?
304, POM, UHMW-PE, 6061. The right choice depends on which of corrosion, weight, strength and cost is the binding constraint, and we will say so plainly rather than quoting the most expensive option.
What documentation do you provide?
A dimensional report and a certificate of conformity as standard. Material certificates, CMM reports, FAIR and PPAP submissions are available when your quality system requires them.
What tolerances do you hold for Packaging Machinery parts?
+/-0.05 mm on change parts so they are interchangeable without adjustment is typical for the industry. Tighter tolerance on individual features is possible and is quoted against the specific feature rather than the whole part.
