OurpPowder filling machines are split into semi-automatic and fully automatic types of machines. Semi-automatic powder fillers fall into two categories: volumetric fillers and gravimetric powder fillers which use weight measurements to ensure a precise amount of powder is dispensed. Fully automatic machines are generally volumetric fillers.
The semi-automatic powder filling machine normally fills the packaging container, bag or pouch which sits on a weighing platform. The product starts to fill into the pack and stops when it has reached its set weight point. A semi-automatic volumetric powder filling is based on the number of turns of the auger. Semi-automatic machines are usually floor standing.
The automatic powder filling machines are nearly always volumetric as they cannot have a weigh cell attached to them as they are normally mounted above a packaging machine. The quantity is based on the number of turns of the auger and will stop when the desired number of revolutions has been reached.
