Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, throughput commonly ranges from 40 to 120 bags per minute, depending on product and bag size.

Power supply

Units of this type typically require a 3-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with an associated power draw of 5-10 kW.

Bag dimensions

Commonly, these machines can produce bags with widths from 50mm to 300mm and lengths up to 400mm, though this is dependent on the specific forming tube and jaw set.

Film types

Typically compatible with a range of heat-sealable film materials, including laminates, polyethylene, and polypropylene.

Footprint

A typical footprint for a vertical form-fill-seal machine is approximately 1.5m (width) x 2m (depth) x 2.5m (height), excluding any upstream feeding equipment.

Air consumption

Pneumatic systems are commonly used for jaw actuation and film pulling, typically requiring 6-8 bar compressed air at 200-500 litres per minute.

• What type of products can this machine package?

  Vertical form-fill-seal machines are generally suited for free-flowing products, including granules, powders, and small solid items. The specific product suitability depends on the dosing system integrated with the VFFS unit.

• Does this unit come with a dosing system?

• What kind of bags does it produce?

• Is installation and commissioning support available?

• What spare parts are commonly needed?

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.
