The food and beverage industry has witnessed an increasing demand for single-serve and convenient packaging. Hotels, restaurants, cafés, retail outlets and consumers regularly use small packs of products such as sugar, coffee, milk powder and spices.
An
Automatic Stick Packing Machine provides an efficient solution to pack these
products into individual stick packs with accurate filling, reliable sealing
and high production efficiency.
What
is an Automatic Stick Packing Machine?
An Automatic Stick Packing Machine
is an FFS packaging machine that automatically forms the packaging film
into a stick-shaped pouch, fills the required quantity of product, seals the
pouch and cuts it into individual packs.
The complete packing process is
automated, reducing manual handling and helping maintain consistent pack
quality.

Choosing
the Right Filling System
Selecting the correct filling system
is important for achieving the desired filling accuracy and production output.
For free-flowing products such as
granulated sugar, volumetric or suitable weighing/filling systems may be
considered.
For powder products such as
coffee, milk powder and spices, the filling system should be selected based
on powder flowability, density, particle size, cohesiveness and required fill
weight.
For this reason, product samples and
packing requirements should be evaluated before finalizing the machine
configuration.
