Filling Machines
Fill liquids, pastes, powders and granules into containers by volume or weight.
Machinery and line considerations for protein powder, supplements, capsules and wellness products.
Protein powders soak up moisture, throw up dust and bridge in the hopper. Capsule and tablet bottles need accurate counts and tamper evidence. Getting the dosing right is what keeps label claims honest and give-away low.
Typical applications include protein powder, supplements, capsules and wellness products. Specify the actual container, closure and label format in your enquiry, because these decide the handling and closing equipment.
Powder filling, counting, bottle closing, sealing and labeling.
Equipment categories most often used in this sector.
Fill liquids, pastes, powders and granules into containers by volume or weight.
Apply and tighten screw, ROPP, press-on and lug closures.
Induction, heat, band, foil and tube sealing for secure, tamper-evident packs.
Wrap-around, front and back, top and bottom, and shrink sleeve labeling.
Inkjet, laser and thermal transfer coding, vision, checkweighing and metal detection.
The project team should confirm the exact regulatory, safety and quality requirements with qualified specialists.
A typical flow, adapted to the actual application:
Start with the product and how it behaves (flow, viscosity, dust, temperature), the container and closure, the fill size, target output per minute or shift, available space and utilities, and any quality or regulatory requirements. Samples and photos of current packs make the review faster.
It decides the dosing principle and the contact materials. Thin liquids may suit gravity or pump filling, viscous products usually need piston or servo pumps, powders need augers or weighers, and aggressive chemicals need compatible pumps and seals.
Often yes, if it is planned that way. Leaving space, choosing machines with spare capacity and agreeing control interfaces early make it easier to add heads, automation or inspection later.
Ask for the technical specification, layout drawing, utility requirements, contact-material certificates, manuals, spare parts list, electrical drawings and FAT/SAT protocols. Regulated sectors may also need qualification documents.
