Auger Fillers

Employ a rotating screw to dispense product through a tube for even, volumetric distribution, such as powdered milk or granulated sugar.

Category Explained

Auger fillers utilize a helical screw mechanism to precisely meter and dispense a variety of dry, free-flowing materials, including but not limited to spices, flour, chemicals, and coffee grounds, through a funnel-shaped tube into containers. This equipment is designed for accuracy and efficiency in packaging processes, ensuring consistent product volume per container. The versatility of auger fillers allows for their application across multiple industries, catering to businesses looking to package products in powder or granular form.

Typical products and applications include:

  • Powdered milk and infant formula: Volumetrically filled into cans or pouches for retail packaging
  • Granulated sugar or salt: Dispensed into shakers, bags, or containers with consistent weight
  • Flour and baking mixes: Filled cleanly into retail bags or industrial bulk containers
  • Protein powders and supplements: Packaged into jars or tubs with minimal product dusting
  • Chemical powders or detergents: Accurately dosed into bottles or cartons for consumer or industrial use

Additional Considerations:

  • Provides highly accurate volumetric filling: Ideal for both lightweight and dense powders
  • Minimizes dust and spillage: Enclosed system supports clean and controlled dispensing
  • Adjustable for different fill weights and container sizes: Suited for retail, foodservice, or bulk packaging
  • Available with servo motors or clutch-brake drives: Supports precise control over fill rate and screw rotation
  • Offered in semi-automatic and fully automatic models: Scalable to meet small batch or high-speed production needs
