Granule Filling Machinery and Process Solutions
What to consider for granule filling: particle size, weight range and product fragility.
Granule Filling equipment selection depends on particle size, weight range and product fragility.
Common equipment
Machine types used for this application. One technology does not fit every product, so compare the options against your sample.
Pouch & Sachet Machines
Form, fill and seal machines and premade pouch packers for flexible packs.
How are granules usually dosed?
Free-flowing granules can be dosed with volumetric cups, which are simple and fast. Linear or multihead weighers give better accuracy for irregular or high-value products, and gentle handling protects fragile pieces.

Common questions
Which pouch packing machine suits powders and granules?
Powders are usually dosed with an auger filler, and free-flowing granules with a volumetric cup filler or a multihead weigher. The doser sits on a vertical form fill seal (VFFS) machine for pillow pouches or on a premade pouch machine for stand-up pouches. Pouch size, fill weight, accuracy and output decide the final choice.
