• Packaging of snack foods such as nuts, crisps, and confectionery.
• Bagging of granular products like rice, pulses, and cereals.
• Packaging of small components or hardware items.
• Forming and filling pouches for pet food or bird seed.

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, output commonly ranges from 40 to 100 bags per minute, depending on product and bag size. This specific unit is stated to have a maximum output of 80 strokes/min.

Power supply

Units of this type typically require a three-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with associated compressed air for pneumatic operations.

Bag types

Form-fill-seal machines generally produce pillow bags, gusseted bags, or block bottom bags from a roll of film.

Weighing system

The integrated twin-head linear weigher is suitable for free-flowing granular products, offering good accuracy for a range of weights.

Film materials

Commonly handles various heat-sealable films, including laminates and co-extruded films, suitable for food packaging.

Footprint

A complete system with elevator and gantry, as described, typically requires a significant operational area, often several square metres, plus space for material handling.

Form-fill-seal machines hold strong reputations in food packaging for reliability and consistent output. Buyers typically prioritise machines with clear maintenance histories and verified production specifications. Key strengths include versatility across film types and product formats, alongside relatively straightforward operation. When purchasing used units, inspectors should examine seal quality consistency, film tracking accuracy, and the condition of heating elements. Machines from established manufacturers generally command buyer confidence. Downtime for repairs is a common concern, so availability of spare parts and technical support merits careful consideration before acquisition.
