- Typical capacity
- For this class of equipment, typical fill weights can range from a few grams up to several kilograms, depending on the auger size and tooling.
- Power supply
- Units of this type commonly operate on a 3-phase industrial power supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, with a control voltage of 24V DC.
- Throughput
- Throughput rates vary significantly based on product density, fill weight, and container size, but can typically range from 10 to 60 fills per minute.
- Materials of construction
- Contact parts are commonly manufactured from food-grade stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316) to ensure hygiene and corrosion resistance.
- Footprint
- The footprint for a standalone powder auger filler is typically compact, often requiring approximately 1m x 1m of floor space, excluding conveyors or other line equipment.
- Accuracy
- Auger fillers are known for high accuracy, typically achieving fill tolerances of ±0.5% to ±2% depending on the product characteristics and machine calibration.
- Tooling
- Units are commonly supplied with interchangeable augers and funnels to accommodate different product types and fill weights.
