In today’s fast-paced packaging industry, automation and precision are the keys to improving efficiency and maintaining product quality. Among the core components driving automation in packaging machinery is the Hydraulic Power Unit (HPU). These systems are essential in delivering stable and reliable power to a range of packaging equipment, from carton sealers and labeling machines to wrapping systems and filling lines.
A Hydraulic Power Unit (HPU) is a self-contained system that includes a hydraulic pump, electric motor, oil reservoir, valves, and filtration components. Its main role is to provide pressurized hydraulic fluid to actuators or hydraulic cylinders within the packaging machine, ensuring precise and repeatable motion.
For packaging applications, HPUs are commonly used in:
Carton forming and closing machines
High-speed wrapping and sealing equipment
Automated bottle filling lines
Blister packaging machines
Heavy-duty pallet strapping and compression systems
High Power Density:
HPUs can deliver large amounts of force in compact sizes, ideal for packaging lines with limited installation space.
Consistent Pressure Control:
With advanced pressure relief valves and flow control valves, the HPU ensures consistent and safe operation under varying loads.
Flexible System Design:
Customizable manifold blocks and modular valve assemblies allow integration into different packaging workflows.
Long Service Life & Easy Maintenance:
With proper filtration and cooling systems, the hydraulic station can operate continuously with minimal maintenance.
Standard hydraulic units may not meet the diverse motion and pressure demands of packaging machinery. Customized HPUs are designed based on the client’s machine requirements, flow rate, system pressure, and working cycles. Our engineering team offers tailor-made hydraulic power units that match your packaging automation goals—improving productivity, reducing downtime, and ensuring safety.
With the rise of smart manufacturing and Industry 4.0, more packaging machinery manufacturers are integrating sensor-based control systems with their hydraulic stations. These smart HPUs can monitor oil temperature, flow rate, and pressure in real time—enhancing predictive maintenance and energy efficiency.
