Frequently asked questions
What do you need to recommend a configuration?
Product, package format, fill range, target output, and destination voltage/frequency. If available, share photos or a sample pack.
Which formats and options are common for this category?
Typical options: auger filler, volumetric cup, or multi-head weigher; dust extraction; nitrogen flush; checkweigher.
What usually affects stability and output?
Main factors: powder flowability, bridging, dosing method, dust at seal area, humidity and temperature.
Can you run a factory acceptance test (FAT) before shipment?
Yes. We can run FAT with your product or a confirmed substitute and provide test video and results for handover.
What documents are included for installation and handover?
Typically: layout, utilities list, manuals, wiring/pneumatic diagrams, spare parts list, and FAT report if applicable.
How do we reduce risk before placing a PO?
Confirm product and package samples, run FAT, lock key specs (range, speed, footprint), and agree on change parts and acceptance criteria.
When should I choose auger filling over volumetric cup filling?
Auger filling works better for fine, non-free-flowing powders (spice, flour, milk powder). Volumetric cups suit free-flowing granules with consistent density. For mixed or irregular particles, a multi-head weigher is more accurate.
