Choosing a machine

Auger filling for fine and dusty powders

A starting point for reviewing powder flow, dose repeatability, tooling and cleaning before choosing a filler.

Fine powder needs its own review.

Flow, dust and changes in how a powder settles can make a fixed-volume dose difficult to repeat. Ground spices, flour and dry blends are useful starting points for an auger-filler discussion.

Match the auger to the dose.

The servo auger filler meters powder through a configured screw and tube. The product, fill quantity and required output determine the proposed tooling and settings. Confirm those details with a sample and the technical offer.

Look beyond filling speed.

Review dust handling, access for cleaning, contact materials and changeover between powders. A product trial should show repeatability over a representative run, using the powder in the condition it reaches the machine.

Bring your product into the decision.

Share a sample, pack dimensions, target quantity and output. The trial and approved technical offer confirm the machine configuration.
