FASA AB steps up with machines that really nail these needs, making them a go-to for busy dairy producers. With FASA, you get steady block forming, spot-on dosing, and tight sealing, which keeps butter fresh and shelf-ready for longer.
These machines aren’t picky—they work with all sorts of butter shapes and sizes, plus margarine and spreads. Their compact size means you can slide them into an existing line without tearing everything apart, so you can boost productivity without a massive overhaul.
FASA AB backs up their tech with solid after-sales support, from warranties to installation help and a reliable spare parts supply. This mix of smart engineering and attentive service really suits businesses that want better quality and more efficient operations.
Core capabilities of fasa butter filling and wrapping systems
FASA’s butter filling and wrapping machines bring together speed, flexibility, and accuracy to fit the fast pace of modern packaging lines. They handle a range of butter brick sizes and shapes, keeping dosing consistent and product handling gentle.
High-speed filling and wrapping
With FASA, you’re looking at up to 80 packs per minute—pretty impressive for high-volume dairies. Volumetric dosing keeps portions precise, so you waste less product and keep things running smoothly.
The wrapping process can use aluminum foil, parchment, or other laminates. A photocell centering device helps cut and place packaging material right where it should be, which not only looks better but also saves on materials. Stainless steel parts and protective covers make sure the machines hold up, even during long shifts.
Versatility in brick sizes and shapes
These machines aren’t stuck on one size—brick sizes from 10 to 25 grams are standard, and you can tweak the height for quick changes. That makes it easy to switch up production without a lot of downtime.
They handle rectangular, stick, and semi-round bricks, so you can match different market preferences or branding styles. The bottom folding style keeps the package closed tight and looking neat.
Precise dosing and product handling
Accurate dosing is at the core of these machines. The stainless steel volumetric unit keeps things clean and ensures every brick is the same weight. That means no leaks and a uniform product every time.
The system works across butter and margarine temps from +8 to +14 °C, so you get the right consistency during filling. There’s also a central lubrication option that keeps things running longer with less fuss.
Integrated processing and packaging equipment
FASA doesn’t just stop at packaging—they offer systems that connect butter processing and packaging in one flow. Homogenization, cutting, and automated feeding all come together to speed up lines and keep quality up, whether you’re running a small dairy or a big operation.
Butter homogenization and consistency
The BH homogenizer is key for that smooth, uniform butter texture everyone wants. It blends fat and water evenly, so there’s no separation, which helps the butter last longer and spread better.
It breaks down fat globules for better mouthfeel, and FASA’s design makes sure it can handle different volumes without roughing up the butter’s structure. Cleaning and maintenance are straightforward, which is always a relief.
Efficient butter block cutting
The butter block cutting machine chops big blocks down to size for easy portioning. FASA’s cutters make uniform slices, which saves time and keeps waste to a minimum.
You can adjust for different sizes and shapes—rectangular, stick, or semi-round—so you’re ready for whatever the market wants. Clean cuts help the final package seal properly and look sharp. Pairing these cutters with FASA’s packaging machines keeps the whole process smooth from start to finish.
Hopper feeding and automation upgrades
FASA’s lines often use hopper feeding with augers, moving butter efficiently from production to packaging. This keeps dosing steady and reliable.
Automation lets you tweak hopper speed and dosing on the fly, based on what production calls for. That means less manual work and more accuracy.
Features like PLC panels and touchscreens make it easy for operators to keep an eye on things and make quick adjustments. All this automation means higher throughput and fewer headaches from manual mistakes.
End-of-line automation and modular solutions
ARM 10-20g – Butter Filling and Wrapping Machine FASA AB
End-of-line automation is all about finishing the packaging process quickly and with less manual effort. Modular setups mean you can customize and fit these systems into your current lines without a big production pause. The result? Faster, more reliable packing for butter products.
Semi-automatic case packing for bricks
FASA’s semi-automatic case packer handles butter bricks with a good mix of precision and simplicity. It lines up wrapped bricks into cartons, easing the load on staff and speeding up the packing process. You can switch between brick shapes and sizes with a quick height adjustment.
This packer is made to work seamlessly with FASA’s filling and wrapping gear. Cartoning is stable, and there’s less risk of damaging products. Controls are straightforward, so changing case sizes or pack formats doesn’t slow you down.
Equipment is shipped in wooden packaging to keep it safe. The semi-auto design balances automation with hands-on oversight—ideal for medium-sized production runs.
Optimizing end-of-line productivity
FASA’s end-of-line solutions bring modular automation that consistently boosts packaging output. Linking case packing with conveyors and sealing equipment cuts bottlenecks and streamlines the process. You can dial in just the right amount of automation for your operation.
Modularity means you can add or upgrade machines without a major overhaul. This flexibility lets you use the same equipment for butter, margarine, or spreads. The compact design also helps when space is tight.
Machines come with remote diagnostics and spare parts kits to keep downtime low. Training and technical support are part of the deal, so your team can keep things running smoothly. All these details help maintain productivity and packaging quality through every batch.
FASA Machine models, user options, and support
FASA has a lineup of machines to fit different butter packaging needs, with adjustable features for various portion sizes and shapes. Customization makes the process more precise and efficient. They back up their gear with good after-sale support, including warranty and spare parts, so you’re set for the long haul.
Popular machine series and customization
The standout is the ARM butter filling and wrapping machine. It handles butter, margarine, and similar products, wrapping them in materials like foil or parchment. Production ranges from 15 to 80 packs per minute, depending on size and shape.
Adjusting portion weight is simple—just change the brick height, which is clearly marked. You get flexibility with shapes: rectangular, stick, or semi-round bricks are all possible. The ARM models have modern touches like a photocell centering device for neat packaging and stainless steel parts for durability. Models like ARM-B3 and ARM-B4 cater to different production needs, with options for volumetric dosing and various feeding methods.
Service, warranty, and spare parts
FASA backs all their machines with a warranty, so you’re covered from the moment it’s installed. Their technicians take care of setup and training, making sure operators get up to speed and things run smoothly.
They offer spare parts kits that’ll last a year or two, covering essentials like sealing rings and bearings. If you need more or want to upgrade, FASA’s in-house R&D team can quickly pinpoint the right parts for your specific machine using its ID.
Shipping’s pretty flexible—depends on what you prefer and the Incoterms 2020 details. Everything ships out in sturdy wooden crates, so the gear arrives safe and sound. FASA really tries to make sure customers feel supported and machines keep running for the long haul.
