Automatic vertical packaging machines, often abbreviated to VFFS, are used for packing a wide range of bulk products.
Among the most common are pet food, frozen food, dried fruits, sand and aggregates, pellets, compost, and plastic granules.
Vertical form fill sealers (VFFS) are extremely simple and effective.
They are a quick and efficient way to package a bulk product in hermetically sealed, standardised packages.
In the following article we will analyse:
The packaging process is particularly effecient due to the continuous formation of the bags.
In fact, the creation of the bag takes place as soon as the previous unit has been sealed.
The process of creating the single-dose pack starts from the flat film of the reel. This, once filled with product, is hermetically sealed using special sealing bars.
The eventual use of aluminized laminated films helps preserve the freshness and fragrance of products.
The opportunity to use compostable or recyclable films is an excellent "green" solution.
Correct and constant dosing is ensured by special multi-head weighers and automatic weight systems.
In fact, rather than having to buy several bags of different sizes, a single roll of film can be used to make several packages of different sizes.
In this way, there is no need to accumulate unnecessary quantities of packs. Furthermore, the possibility of using thinner film reduces material costs.
VFFS have many fields of application and can therefore be used for different types of products. As much for solid and granular ones as for powdery ones.

These have a minimum size of 120 x 100 mm and a maximum size of 330 x 400 mm.
Vertical packaging machine with carousel system for medium/high production and medium sizes (1-5 kg)
Designed specifically for making double square bottom bags.
The process begins with bag formation and removal of excess air. It finally proceeds to closing the bag, folding and securing the top flap on itself.
Vertical packaging machine for formats ranging from 5 to 30 kg. Simple to use and extremely versatile.
It has a production capacity of 1,200 bags per hour.
Especially used for products such as: feed, grain, flour, sand, aggregates, pellets.
Allows making bags with minimum dimensions of 230 x 300 mm and maximum dimensions of 470 x 680 mm.
Enables the packaging of products characterized by good flowability and grain size. Suitable for packaging large sizes. Up to 30 kg.
Featuring a production capacity of 1200 bags per hour.
Able to process different types of bags: pillow, with side gussets, four seals, square bottom.
The presence of the "touch screen" panel and alpha-numeric display then offers easy management and modification of the packaging scheme.
The use of Brushless motor also ensures maximum efficiency and low maintenance.
