Modular linear packing system for granular products
Streamline your packing operations with a versatile system that integrates weighing, filling, and bagging, ideal for handling small, free-flowing products in high-speed production lines.
Weighs, Fills, and Bags Granular Food Products
The Modular Packing System (MPS) Linear VFFS Machine from The Food Machinery Company is engineered to optimize your packing process for granular food products. It features a versatile Vertical Form Fill Seal (VFFS) mechanism paired with linear weighers to ensure precise weighing and efficient filling of products like potato chips, dried herbs, and granola. The system operates with intermittent motion, ideal for automated, high-speed packing environments. Capable of handling a variety of bag styles such as pillow, gusseted, and flat bottom, it accommodates a maximum film width of 620mm and bag sizes ranging from 70 to 300mm in width and 100 to 300mm in length. The integrated linear weighers utilize vibration technology to gradually feed product into the weigh pan, dynamically adjusting feed rates to achieve target weights with precision. Designed to seamlessly integrate into existing packaging lines, this system provides exceptional versatility and operational efficiency, making it suitable for food manufacturers, packaging companies, and other members of the food processing industry. Customization options and engineering support are available to meet specific production requirements.
