Automatic auger filling machine for tubs and wide-mouth containers — Tub filling

Specification guidance

Wide-mouth containers need stable handling.

Tubs are common for protein powders, supplements, food ingredients and chemical powders. Their size and opening can help filling, but container stability and dust control still need planning.

The line may include tub denesting, indexing, filling, scoop insertion, capping, induction sealing, labelling, coding and checkweighing depending on the product and output.
