Line architecture
- Feeding and dedusting with magnet and optional de-ironing.
- Metering for fine salt and blends:
- Auger screw filler for free-flowing and slightly hygroscopic salt.
- Multihead or cup weigher for granular blends and larger pouches.
- VFFS bagger for 10 g to 2 kg pouches with pillow, flat bottom or gusseted formats.
- Premade pouch bagger for stand-up pouches when zipper or spout is required.
- Open-mouth bagging for 5 kg to 25 kg PE or paper laminated bags.
- Bag mouth shaping, de-aeration and heat sealing or automatic sewing.
- In-line coding and labeling with batch and traceability.
- Dynamic checkweighing and metal detection or X-ray inspection with reject device.
- Case packing or palletizing with stretch wrapping and corner protection.
Built for salt plants
- 304 or 316L contact materials and sealed bearings for corrosion resistance.
- Dust collection nozzles and anti-bridging agitation in hoppers.
- Tool-less product contact changeover and smooth welds for quick cleaning.
- PLC controls with recipe management and OEE dashboards.

Core modules
- Auger screw filler with servo control and dust-tight nozzles.
- VFFS bagger with film auto-centering and zig-zag cutter for clean seals.
- Premade pouch packer with pick-fill-seal steps and zipper alignment.
- Open-mouth bagger with automatic bag pick, de-aeration and seal monitoring.
- Automatic sewing or heat-sealing station with bag top forming.
- Checkweigher with feedback to auger or weigher to reduce give-away.
- Metal detector or X-ray with combined reject and lockable bins.
Options
- De-humidified air for film path and forming tube.
- Nitrogen flushing for shelf life and caking reduction.
- Vision checks for date code, label and seal alignment.

- IIoT gateway for SPC, e-records and remote diagnostics.
Typical specifications
Station | Function | Notes |
---|---|---|
Feeding | Screw feeder with hopper agitation | Level sensors and dust hood |
Dosing | Auger, cup or multihead weigher | Recipe control and auto-tuning |
Primary packaging | VFFS bags 10 g–2 kg or premade pouches | Pillow, flat bottom, stand-up |
Secondary packaging | Open-mouth 5–25 kg with sewing or heat seal | PE or paper laminated |
Inspection | Checkweigher and metal detector or X-ray | Dual reject, locked bins |
End of line | Case packing, palletizing and wrapping | Barcode and batch labels |
Compliance: food contact materials, traceability, weight accuracy and foreign body control are addressed in the standard scope.
Who benefits
- Refined table salt and iodized salt producers requiring clean seals and accurate dosing.
- Sea salt and rock salt processors needing robust frames and corrosion protection.
- Seasoned salt and blended products where premade pouches and zippers are preferred.
