Dry Product Fillers

Dry product fillers handle granules, tablets, snacks and irregular pieces using volumetric cups, vibratory feeders or multihead combination weighers.

How it works

Dry product fillers handle granular, flake, or particulate solids using volumetric, auger, or weigh-based systems suited to the material's flow properties. These systems generally address a broader range of particle sizes than fine powder equipment, including granules and small chunks. Vibratory or agitation features may assist consistent flow into the fill mechanism.

Common applications

• Filling granular food products
• Packaging pelletized or flaked chemical products
• Filling nutraceutical granules and capsules in bulk
• Packaging dry industrial materials

Typical products and containers

Advantages

• Handles a wide range of particle sizes and shapes
• Can incorporate vibratory feed for consistent flow
• Adaptable to bag, box, or drum filling
• Available in volumetric or weigh-based accuracy configurations

Buying considerations

• Confirm the material's particle size and flow characteristics match the equipment's design.
• Consider whether weigh-based accuracy is needed for labeling compliance.
• Evaluate dust or debris containment requirements.
• Check container compatibility, especially for bags or drums.
• Assess throughput requirements against batch or continuous filling design.
