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.
