01 • FEED & POSITION
Prepare the Tube
Empty tubes are loaded, separated and oriented before entering the filling and sealing sequence.
Overview
GDA provides standalone process modules and customized tube packaging systems for filling, ultrasonic sealing, trimming and automated tube handling.
Every project begins with the tube, filling product and required workflow rather than a predefined machine layout.
Why ultrasonic
Why Ultrasonic Tube Packaging?
Localized energy supports fast sealing and flexible integration without heating the entire tube end.
Localized Energy
Ultrasonic vibration concentrates heat at the sealing area instead of warming the whole tube end.
Application Flexibility
Plastic and laminated tubes can be evaluated with actual samples, filler residue and finish requirements.
Modular Integration
Sealing, filling and trimming processes can operate separately or become part of a larger machine.
Flexible Automation
The layout can be adapted to standalone workstations, indexing systems or customized production lines.
Typical workflow
From Empty Tube to Finished Package
A complete system may coordinate every stage below, while modular projects can begin with only the process that needs improvement.
02 • FILL
Deliver the Product
The filling method is selected around viscosity, target volume, sanitation and product behavior.
03 • SEAL
Close the Tube
Application-specific tooling transfers ultrasonic energy into the tube end to create the required seal.
04 • FINISH
Complete the Package
Coding, trimming, inspection and discharge can be coordinated according to the required finished product.

Choose the Level of Integration
Choose a coordinated packaging system when several processes must work together, or begin with an individual module when only one production step needs improvement.

From Sample Review to Production Integration
Reliable tube packaging depends on how the tube, filling product, sealing process, tooling and automation workflow are developed together.
-
Tube & Package Review
Evaluate material, dimensions, wall structure, print mark and the required finished profile. -
Product & Filling Review
Consider viscosity, particles, target volume, sanitation, temperature and cut-off behavior. -
Ultrasonic Sealing Development
Review seal geometry, tooling contact, contamination conditions and process feasibility using representative samples. -
Tooling & Format Handling
Develop holders, filling nozzles, sealing tools and trimming profiles around the selected tube formats. -
Automation Integration
Coordinate feeding, indexing, controls, safety, machine layout and downstream handling as one production process.
FAQ
Tube Packaging FAQ
Quick answers for teams evaluating a standalone packaging process or a complete automated system.
Ultrasonic sealing concentrates energy at the tube end, supports fast processing and can be integrated into standalone or automated equipment. Final feasibility should be confirmed with actual tube and product samples.
Choose CP-AFS when several packaging stages must operate as one coordinated system. Choose process modules when only one station is required or when adding a function to existing equipment.
Prepare tube material and dimensions, representative samples, filling product information, viscosity, target volume, output requirement, required finish and available machine space.
