Seasoning Packaging Machine for Powders and Granules

Seasonings range from free-flowing granules to fine powders and mixed blends, so the dosing method must match flow behavior and target weight. Dust, aroma, cross-contact, sealing contamination and cleaning can matter as much as machine speed.

Published HYS Configuration Facts

  • VFFS page describes volumetric cup, auger and piston-pump integration
  • Published VFFS speed range: 25–55 bags/min
  • Published bag range: L 20–320 mm, W 20–250 mm across the models
  • The correct feeder and dose range must be confirmed from the seasoning sample

Final model, feeder, accuracy and output are confirmed from product and package samples.

Custom functions: Nitrogen flushing, dust extraction, metal detection and checkweighing require a customized machine or line configuration.

Choose the Dosing Method

  • Auger filling is commonly evaluated for fine or less free-flowing seasoning powders.
  • Volumetric cups can suit consistent free-flowing products where volume-based dosing is acceptable.
  • Weighing systems may suit coarse granules or blends when target-weight control is required.
  • Mixed products should be tested for segregation and dosing repeatability.

Dust, Aroma and Cleaning

  • Fine powder can enter the sealing area and reduce seal integrity without suitable control.
  • Product-contact parts and access should support the required cleaning and changeover procedure.
  • Strong aromas and allergens may require dedicated controls defined by the customer.
  • Film barrier should match moisture, aroma and shelf-life requirements.

Pack and Line Inputs

  • Particle size, flow behavior, density, dust and target dose.
  • Sachet or bag dimensions, film structure and seal format.
  • Accuracy tolerance, output and number of product recipes.
  • Coding, extraction, inspection and site hygiene requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. Fine powders often use augers, while coarse or free-flowing granules may suit cups or weighing systems. Testing determines the appropriate method.

Potentially, but segregation and inconsistent flow can affect dose composition. The actual blend should be tested.
