The rotary range of bottle capping machines are versatile and efficient bottle capping machines designed to cap containers with a rotary mechanism. They are ideal for high-speed production lines, offering precision and reliability in securing caps onto bottles. These automatic bottle capping machines are capable of handling a variety of cap sizes and materials, making them suitable for diverse packaging needs.
Automatic liquid food depositors
The automatic inline filling range depositors of is used to fill liquid products into containers such as bottles, cans and jars. The process is performed in a straight or linear line as the containers are moved along a conveyor belt and filled with the product as they pass the filling station. The control system of the machine regulates the filling process to ensure accurate filling levels and consistent product quality.

Bottle unscramblers
Our empty bottle unscramblers are used in the packaging industry to sort and orient empty bottles or containers that are randomly placed or mixed up in a bulk supply. The machines use a combination of mechanical and pneumatic systems to organise the bottles or containers and present them in an upright and consistent orientation, ready for the filling and capping process.
Powder Filling machines
Our Powder filling machines are split into semi-automatic and fully automatic types of machines. Semi-automatic powder fillers fall into two categories: volumetric fillers and gravimetric powder fillers which use weight measurements to ensure a precise amount of powder is dispensed. Fully automatic machines are generally volumetric fillers. The semi-automatic powder filling machine normally fills the packaging container, bag or pouch which sits on a weighing platform. The product starts to fill into the pack and stops when it has reached its set weight point. A semi-automatic volumetric powder filling is based on the number of turns of the auger. Semi-automatic machines are usually floor standing. The automatic powder filling machines are nearly always volumetric as they cannot have a weigh cell attached to them as they are normally mounted above a packaging machine. The quantity is based on the number of turns of the auger and will stop when the desired number of revolutions has been reached.
Semi Automatic and Automatic Weighing machines
Autopack offer tow types of Nett weight systems, linear or Multihead weighers. Our linear weighing machines are used to accurately measure and dispense precise amounts of product into packaging containers whether they are bags, bottles or boxes. They typically consist of a series of weigh hoppers, or buckets, that are filled with the products to be dispensed. The hoppers have load cells which measure the weight of the product within the hopper and are connected to control systems which open and close discharge gates or chutes to release the product into packing containers. The Multihead range of weighers are a type of packaging equipment that is commonly used in the food industry to weigh products into bags, boxes and trays. Having several weighing heads – often ten or more – which are arranged in a circular or linear pattern, the weighing head has a load cell and a hopper that weighs out the required amount of product into the container below. The weighing heads work in unison to accurately weigh out the required amounts of product.
Sachet and Stickpack machines
Sachet and Stickpack machines Our range of horizontal sachet packing machines is suitable for many applications and budgets. Our sachet machines are capable of producing sachets with widths ranging from 30 to 170 mm, achieving speeds of up to 200 sachets per minute. They can fill and seal multiple sachet styles, including three- and four-sided sachets, various shapes, Euro-slot sachets, sachets with zippers, and more. Additionally, our Postpack sachet filling machines can seamlessly integrate with labelling devices and a variety of filling systems, as well as post-machine collation and packing systems for enhanced flexibility and functionality. Stick packs are commonly used to package single-serve portions of powders, liquids, granules and other products. A stick pack machine is designed to produce small convenient single-use portion packs normally at medium to high throughputs. The stick pack machines are a type of vertical form fill seal machine (VFFS) and instead of producing one pack at a time as traditional VFFS machines do, stick pack machines produce multiple small VFFS packs with each cycle. A single roll of film mounted on an unwinding station feeds a continuous sheet of packaging film through several tensioning rollers and through a printer bracket where a batch code can be applied to each stick if required. The product is then dispensed into the tube through a filling system and then is sealed at both ends to create a single stick pack. The film continues to the eye mark sensor which detects the printed eye mark on the film and sends a signal to the stick pack machine to dose the product, seal and cut. The sticks are then either collated in batches and into bulk boxes or streamed along conveyors to cartons or other packaging machines.
Bag in box
At Autopack we offer a wide range of Bag in Box packaging machines to cater for any BiB application. From manual cap removal to fully automated decapping, capping and bag feeding, we cater for all budgets and space constraints. Box erecting, box sealing and palletising can be integrated to make a fully automated Bag in Box line.
End of Line Equipment
Case Erecting A case erector is a machine that is used to automatically form corrugated cardboard boxes or cases for packaging products. The machine can fold and seal the bottom flaps of the box, allowing it to be filled with products before being sealed with tape or glue Case Packers A case packer is a machine that automatically picks products from a conveyor belt or feeding system and then packs them into cases or boxes for distribution or storage. Generally, the machine can be used to pack a wide range of products, such as bottles, cans, jars or cartons into cases of various sizes and configurations. Case sealers Case sealers are machines that are used in the end-of-line equipment on a production line to automatically seal boxes after they have been filled with products. Machines can seal large boxes with adhesive tape, gummed paper or hot melt glue. Case sealers can be fully automated – requiring little or no operator intervention – or semi-automated, depending on the model. Palletisers Palletisers are items of end-of-line equipment that can be used to automatically stack products on pallets, of various sizes and configurations, for shipment or storage. The palletiser works by picking products from a conveyor belt or feeding system and arranging them in a predetermined order on a pallet. It can add layers until fully loaded. Pallet wrappers For companies that use a palletiser to stack products onto pallets at the end of their production lines, a pallet wrapper is used to stretch wrap the products to the pallet. This increases load stability during transportation or storage. Pallet wrappers can be semi-automatic or fully automated versions that require little or no operator input.
