a. Agitator FillingMachines
Designed to fill dry
mixes , such as milk
powder, sugar, flour etc.
Fillers have a hopper
shaped like a cone that
holds the mix and puts it in
a pouch using an auger
screw that is controlled
by the agitator.

b. Flow FillingMachines
Designed for liquids.
Oils and thin food
products.
These fillers are
designed when they fill a
bottle or tub that enters
the machine, the ejects
the open bottle back onto
another conveyor for
sealing.
7.
Designed forproducts that
is counted by pieces instead
of weight.
These are designed for
small bottles, but the hopper
of the fillers is setup to
permit scan counting of
tablets.
c. Tablet Fillers
8.
Machines usedto securely close and/or fasten the product usually
after the filling section.
Some types of sealing equipments-
a. Food packaging machines.
b. Vacuum packaging machines.
c. Blister packaging machines.

Blister pack isa cavity or
pocket made from a
“formable” web , usually
a thermoformed plastic.
This usually has a
backing of paperboard or
a “lidding seal” of
aluminium foil or plastic.

a. Case/Box sealers
Casesealers are used in
production environments
where a run of the same
sized cases is made , then
changed over for the next
sized box.
Uniform Case Sealing.
Random Case
Sealing .
18.
An alternative tocase
packing where the
product is bundled
together for shipment.
b. Sleeve wrappers and Bundlers
19.
Machines which forma
carton board blank into a
carton filled with a
product into single
carton, after the filling ,
the machines engages its
slots to apply adhesive
and close both the ends
of carton completely
sealing the carton.
c. Case erectors and Box forming Machines
20.

automatically load
productsinto boxes.
There are several
types of case
packing machines
