In view of the absence of fully automated production lines for current fireworks tube packaging machines on the market, a new design for the control system of fireworks tube packaging machines has been proposed. Firstly, a detailed introduction has been made of the work-flow procedures of its control system and the working principles of its pneumatic system, followed by the employment of the outer packing machine driven by the pneumatic system, and the monitoring of the working process of the packaging machines by Mitsubishi FX series programmable controllers. This control system helps to improve the safety performance and the work efficiency of fireworks production, thus laying a theoretical basis for the design of similar fireworks packing machines.
