Description
Automatic Granule Packing Machine
Introduction
The Automatic Granule Packing Machine is a cutting-edge packaging solution engineered to automate and streamline the packaging of free-flowing granular materials. Built with industrial-grade materials and embedded with modern automation technology, it is capable of precisely handling products such as sugar, salt, tea, rice, seeds, pulses, coffee, namkeen, and detergent granules with high speed and efficiency.
In a rapidly growing FMCG and agro-processing sector, businesses demand packaging solutions that are accurate, reliable, hygienic, and capable of scaling up production without compromising consistency. The Automatic Granule Packing Machine fulfills all these requirements while delivering a significantly low cost of ownership.
Equipped with a Volumetric Cup Filler or a Multi-Head Weigh Filler, depending on the application and budget, this machine integrates seamlessly with a Vertical Form Fill Seal (VFFS) system. The result is an intelligent, robust system capable of forming, filling, and sealing pouches at high speeds, reducing manual labor and boosting packaging throughput.
Whether you’re a startup looking to automate your pouching process or a large-scale manufacturer requiring consistent packaging for export-grade products, this machine brings unmatched ROI and production efficiency to your plant floor.
Key Features Automatic Granule Packing Machine :
High-Speed Pouch Packing
Capable of delivering up to 60 pouches per minute, this machine is built for production environments where speed matters. The actual output depends on pouch size, filler type, and product flow.
Dual Filler Options
- Volumetric Cup Filler: Ideal for regular-shaped granules such as rice, sugar, or grains. It uses mechanical volume-based measurement.
- Multi-Head Weigh Filler: A more advanced system using load cells for precise weight calculation. Perfect for uneven or high-value products like tea or dry fruits.
PLC with HMI Touchscreen
The intuitive user interface lets operators control speed, fill weight, sealing temperatures, pouch length, and batch coding. Recipe management allows for quick product changeovers.
Servo Motor Technology
A servo motor-driven film pulling mechanism ensures accurate pouch length, alignment, and minimal film wastage.
Flexible Packaging Formats
Compatible with various pouch designs: center seal, three-side seal, pillow pack, gusseted pouch, and stand-up pouch (optional).
Sanitary Construction
Crafted using SS304 (or optional SS316 for pharma/food-grade applications), this machine is easy to clean and built for long-term, hygienic operation.

Working Process
The machine’s process is fully automated, ensuring minimal human intervention:
- Feeding: Product is fed into the main hopper manually or via Z-type elevator.
- Measuring: Depending on the configuration, the system uses volumetric cups or multi-head weighers to measure product accurately.
- Pouch Forming: Film roll unwinds over the collar to form a pouch while the vertical seal applies.
- Filling: Product is dispensed into the formed pouch.
- Sealing: Horizontal sealing jaws seal the pouch top and bottom.
- Cutting & Discharge: The pouch is cut and discharged onto a conveyor.
Volumetric vs. Weigh Filler: Comparison
| Feature | Volumetric Cup Filler | Multi-Head Weigh Filler |
| Accuracy | ±3–5% | ±0.5–1% |
| Speed | Higher | Moderate |
| Cost | More Affordable | Higher Investment |
| Ideal For | Salt, rice, grains | Tea, dry fruits, costly items |
| Maintenance | Low | Moderate |
Choose based on your product’s flow, accuracy needs, and cost sensitivity.
Industry Use Cases

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q1: Can this machine handle both food and non-food granules?
Yes. It is suitable for grains, seeds, spices, detergent, and chemical granules.
Q2: Can I pack different pouch sizes with one machine?
Yes. You can adjust pouch width and length by changing forming sets and settings.
Q3: What’s the difference between volumetric cup filler and weigh filler?
Volumetric cup filler is faster for uniform granules. Weigh filler gives higher accuracy for mixed-size or premium products.
Q4: Is it compliant for food-grade applications?
Yes, it comes with SS304 or SS316 contact parts and optional GMP finish.
Q5: How is the machine maintained?
It requires basic cleaning, lubrication, and monthly inspection. AMC support is available.
Q6: Can I integrate this with other machines like conveyors or printers?
Absolutely. The system is modular and supports conveyors, printers, nitrogen systems, and metal detectors.
