¿Cómo elegir materias primas adecuadas para el polvo de incienso?
In the process of incense production, the choice of raw materials has a decisive impact on the finished product’s fragrance, moulding effect, and burning performance. Especially when using incense making machine, the stability and suitability of raw materials will be directly related to the machine’s operating efficiency and product quality.
In this article, we will help you choose the right raw materials from several key aspects.
Raw material types and characteristics
Commonly used fragrance powder ingredients include:
Wood powder: used to increase the bonding and support, suitable for a variety of incense types, especially fine wood powder is good.
Spice powder: such as incense powder, sandalwood powder, wormwood powder, etc., determines the odour and efficacy of the incense, and is the core ingredient of the incense.
Vegetable glue powder or binder: such as heather glue powder, elm bark powder, to increase the formability, suitable for automatic feeding and moulding.
Combustion aid powders: such as charcoal powder, can enhance the uniformity of incense burning, especially suitable for pagoda incense and pouring incense.
The raw material ratio affects moulding
Different types of incense making machines have different requirements for the ratio of incense powder.
Thread incense machine on the fineness of the raw material and bonding requirements of higher, wood powder and glue powder ratio should be reasonable, to avoid broken incense or poor feeding.
Incense cone machine and backflow incense cone machine need to pay more attention to the compression of incense powder and mould release effect, particles too coarse or high water content will affect the molding.
Stick incense machine on the powder package requirements, powder should be firmly attached to the bamboo stick, not easily fall.
It is recommended that a trial test be carried out to confirm the suitability of the formulation before production.
Raw material moisture content and impurities
Incense powder with too high moisture content will easily clog the feeding system and cause uneven pressing of incense, especially in continuous production.
At the same time, containing impurities such as bark fragments, stones, etc., will cause wear and tear on the incense-making moulds, reducing the life of the equipment.
When choosing raw materials, it is recommended to choose the incense powder that has been sifted, impurities removed, and controlled moisture treatment.
Matching market positioning
If the target market for high-end consumer groups, you can consider using natural incense, sandalwood, and other high-quality incense powder to enhance the grade of the incense.
For everyday fast-moving products, use a well-proportioned blend of flavours to control costs and ensure a consistent aroma.
Concluding
Choosing the right raw materials for incense powder not only helps to improve the quality of the incense but also extends the life of the machine and reduces the production failure rate.
We advise our customers to ensure that the equipment is optimally matched to the raw material before purchasing and producing.
