Stickpack Machine for Granules

The stickpack machine uses heat-sealing bars to create small thin sachets called stickpacks. Depending on the sachet size, 1-12 packs can be created at the same time. The packets can be cut into individual sachets or remain together as a string.

Heat-sealable film is drawn into the machine, and hot bars create the side seals of the sachets. Then, as the bottom seal is created, product is deposited into the stickpack before the top seal is formed and the sachets are cut away from the reel.

For granules, volumetric filling equipment is usually integrated with the machine, but augers can also be used for small granules and weighers can be used for large ones. The versatility of this machine results in a wide range of applications across all sectors, especially food and drink, pharmaceutical and cosmetic and chemical.

Depending on powder flowability, a single cycle can take less than 2 seconds, producing huge numbers of packets every minute. These machines are frequently used for the rapid production of granulated products like instant coffee, sugar, salt or plastic or chemical granules.

Additional features can be applied to the formed sachets including date coding, printing, easy tear notches etc.
