What is an Auger Filler Packing Machine?

An Auger Filler Packing Machine is a type of Vertical Form Fill Seal (VFFS) machine that uses a screw auger system to measure and dispense powders with high accuracy.

🔹 How it works step by step:

  • Film forming – Packaging film is shaped into a tube around a forming collar.
  • Auger dosing – A servo-driven screw auger rotates to dispense a precise volume of powder into the formed bag.
  • Filling control – The auger speed and number of rotations are adjusted to match the target weight.
  • Sealing & cutting – Vertical and horizontal sealing jaws close and cut the bag, creating finished packs.

🔹 Why use auger fillers?

  • Accuracy: Precise screw rotation allows fine control of powder quantities.
  • Versatility: Handles both free-flowing powders (flour, milk powder) and non-free-flowing powders (spices, cocoa, chemicals).
  • Hygiene: Closed filling system minimizes dust and contamination.
  • Consistency: Delivers repeatable dosing, even for sticky or clumpy powders.

🔹 Limitations to consider:

Not suitable for large granules or liquids (better to use volumetric cups or liquid pumps).

Requires dust management (e.g. with dust extraction or closed hoppers) for fine powders.

👉 In summary: The Auger Filler Packing Machine is the best choice for powder packaging, ensuring accuracy, hygiene, and consistency where other systems cannot perform reliably.
