Practical guidance

Start with the product, pack and required output.

A strong enquiry does not need to be perfect, but it should give enough information to understand the production requirement. Product, pack and output details are more useful than asking only for a generic price.

The example quantities and outputs below are enquiry requirements to discuss, not a statement of a machine's tested performance. Use them to frame your own enquiry. Add photos, product samples and pack samples where possible, especially if the powder is dusty, cohesive or high value.

Details that help narrow the specification

  • Product: whey protein powder, 500 g and 1 kg tubs, target 8 tubs/minute
  • Product: spice blend, 50 g glass jars, cap and label after filling
  • Product: detergent powder, 1 kg tubs, dusty product, extraction required
  • Product: collagen powder, 10 g sachets, tight weight control required
  • Product: chemical powder, 5 kg bags, abrasive material, safety data available

Fill range

Output target

Measure output as finished packs per minute, including filling, closing and inspection.

Known risks

Describe dust, cohesion, abrasion, weight-control or closing problems that the enquiry needs to address.
