What to send when asking for an auger filler quotation.
A good enquiry helps the supplier recommend the right equipment faster and avoids vague pricing.
Start with the product, pack and required output.
The more detail you send at the start, the easier it is to compare machines properly. A product name and target weight are useful, but they rarely give enough information for a reliable specification.
Include pack samples, product samples, photos or videos of current filling problems and a clear target output. Also mention whether you need help with feeding, capping, sealing, labelling, coding or checkweighing.
Details that help narrow the specification
- Product name, sample and bulk density
- Fill weight and acceptable tolerance
- Container, pouch or bag dimensions
- Current and target output
- Dust, hygiene, cleaning and changeover requirements
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.
Explain whether semi-automatic, automatic or line-integrated options should be compared for the target output.
List the product, fill-weight range and container, pouch or bag dimensions to be covered.
Plan downstream handling at the same time as the filler so the finished pack is reliable.
Send representative samples and describe the dust, flow, accuracy and changeover questions to be checked.
Common questions from machinery buyers.
Do I need to send samples?
Samples are strongly recommended for powders that may bridge, dust or vary in density.
What if I do not know bulk density?
Send the product sample and approximate fill volume or current pack details.
Can I ask for several options?
Yes. It is common to compare semi-automatic, automatic and line-integrated approaches.
Send the product and pack details.
We can help compare the auger filler, powder feed and line options that fit your production requirement.
