Legume and Pulse Packaging Line and Factory Setup

A legume and pulse packaging line is a complete industrial system designed to clean, sort, weigh and pack beans, lentils, chickpeas and similar dry legumes under controlled hygienic conditions. The line produces retail and bulk packs depending on the selected weighing and packaging equipment.

From an industrial perspective, legume packaging is important because it combines primary cleaning (bujari), precise sorting by size and quality, accurate weighing and reliable bag sealing to deliver consistent product free from foreign matter. The process relies on a defined sequence of unit operations that must be correctly engineered, sized and integrated.

Primary materials typically include dry legumes (beans, lentils, chickpeas), packaging films or bags, cartons and labels. The core machinery set consists of cleaning (bujari) machines with filters and cyclones, sorting systems, digital weighers, volumetric or weigh-filling packaging machines, sealing units and labelling equipment.

The Industrial Department supports investors who want to establish a new legume packaging plant as well as existing operators who need repair, overhaul, capacity expansion or automation of their current lines. Projects can start from an empty site or from an operating facility that requires technical upgrading.

Whether the goal is a green-field turnkey packaging plant in Iraq, Kurdistan Region, Afghanistan or other regional markets, or the modernization of an existing line in Iran, engineering, machinery supply or manufacturing, installation, commissioning and ongoing technical support can be provided under defined contractual scopes.

Production Line Overview

The legume packaging line is engineered as an integrated process system covering cleaning, sorting, weighing, bag filling, sealing and labelling. Design capacity is determined during the engineering phase and can typically range from 500 to 2000 kg per hour depending on product type and packaging format.

Product types include various dry legumes packed in retail bags or bulk sacks. The overall process flow follows a defined sequence: primary cleaning (bujari), sorting by size and quality, digital weighing, volumetric or weigh-filling packaging, bag sealing and labelling.

Main machinery groups include bujari cleaners with filters and cyclones, sorting systems, digital weighers (accuracy ±1 g), packaging machines (30–60 packs per minute), sealing units and labelers. Supporting infrastructure covers electrical power, process water and compressed air.

Manpower requirements depend on the degree of automation. Quality control covers foreign-matter content, size uniformity, weight accuracy and package integrity. Finished packs are stored in dry conditions before distribution.

Manufacturing Process

The industrial process follows a defined sequence of unit operations. Each stage has a clear purpose, input materials, equipment and quality impact.

Primary Cleaning (Bujari) – Legumes are cleaned to remove heavy impurities, dust and light foreign matter using a machine equipped with filters and cyclones.
Sorting – Cleaned product is sorted by size and quality.
Weighing – Digital weighing is performed with typical accuracy of ±1 g.
Packaging – Product is filled into bags by volumetric or weigh-filling machines at 30–60 packs per minute.
Sealing and Labelling – Bags are sealed and labels are applied.

Machinery & Equipment

Each main machine performs a specific function. Support is available for design, manufacturing or procurement, customization, installation, commissioning, repair, overhaul, refurbishment, automation and spare-parts supply according to the agreed project scope.

Bujari Cleaner – Removes impurities using air classification and screens. Position: first process stage. Importance: foundation of product purity. Quality impact: residual foreign matter reduces commercial value. Maintenance: screens, filters and fans. Sahi Rasa support covers design, installation, repair and spare parts.
Sorting System – Grades by size and quality. Position: after cleaning. Importance: ensures consistent pack appearance. Quality impact: poor sorting leads to mixed sizes in packs. Maintenance: screens and sensors.
Digital Weigher – Delivers accurate portion weights (±1 g). Position: before packaging. Importance: legal and commercial compliance. Quality impact: under or over weight affects profitability and customer trust. Maintenance: load cells and software.
Packaging Machine – Fills bags at 30–60 packs per minute. Position: core packaging stage. Importance: determines throughput and pack quality. Quality impact: inconsistent fill or weak seals cause complaints. Maintenance: dosing systems, film handling and sealing jaws.
Sealer and Labeler – Closes bags and applies identification. Position: end of line. Importance: final presentation and traceability. Quality impact: incomplete seals or missing labels reduce market acceptance. Maintenance: sealing elements and print heads.

Factory Layout & Building Requirements

Typical functional areas include raw-material receiving and storage, process areas, packaging, quality-control laboratory, utility rooms, maintenance workshop, staff facilities, loading docks and administrative offices. Layout must respect hygienic or process zoning and flow. Exact area allocation is determined during the engineering phase according to capacity and product range.

Utilities

Electricity: 380 V three-phase, typically 20–50 kW
Water: 5–10 m³/day
Other utilities according to process requirements (steam, compressed air, refrigeration as applicable)
