Protein powder tub filling lines with auger dosing.

A protein tub line should be specified around the blend, fill volume, tub size and finished-pack presentation.

Practical guidance

Start with the product, pack and required output.

Protein powders are often sold in wide-mouth tubs with large fills. The line needs to manage filling speed, dust, product settling, headspace and capping after the dose.

If several flavours or formulas are run, cleaning and changeover become central to the specification. Scoop handling, induction sealing, labelling and date coding should also be considered early.

Details that help narrow the specification

  • Tub diameter and fill weight
  • Protein blend density and dust level
  • Scoop or desiccant handling if required
  • Capping and induction-sealing needs
  • Label and code position
Buying decisions

Points to confirm before choosing equipment.

These checks help compare semi-automatic, automatic and line-integrated options against the way the product will actually be packed.

Filler size

Confirm this point early so the final recommendation matches your product, pack and production target.

Settling distance

Confirm this point early so the final recommendation matches your product, pack and production target.

Capper integration

Confirm this point early so the final recommendation matches your product, pack and production target.

Changeover plan

Check access to product-contact parts and how long changeover will take between products.

It is often sensible to plan capping and sealing with the filler.

What is important for flavour changeover?

Cleaning access, contact-part removal and recipe control.
