Linear weigh fillers
For free-flowing granules, beans, seeds, snacks and small components.

Powder and granule weigh fillers for dry-product production.
Compare dosing, weighing, dust control, pack handling and downstream closing as one route before selecting a machine.
Application planning
Start with your product and finished pack. Lancing compares product behaviour, target weight, pack handling and output so the machine shortlist is practical from the start.
A good recommendation balances product behaviour, target fill weight, pack handling, closure or seal method, throughput and how much operator involvement is acceptable.
Key planning points
- Product flow, dust and bulk density often decide the dosing method.
- Fine powders may need auger control, agitation, containment or settling time.
- Free-flowing granules may suit linear or multihead weighing, depending on speed and pack size.

View route →| Factor | Why it matters | Useful enquiry detail |
|---|---|---|
| Product behaviour | Determines whether weighing, auger dosing or hybrid feeding is suitable. | Flowability, dust, particle size, fragility, density and product sample availability. |
| Target fill | Changes hopper size, dosing principle, accuracy expectation and output. | Minimum and maximum fill weights plus acceptable tolerance. |
| Pack format | Controls discharge height, filling mouth, closure, sealing and downstream equipment. | Pouch, bag, jar, tub, bottle, box or existing machine interface. |
| Automation level | Defines operator workflow, speed, footprint and integration requirements. | Semi-automatic, compact automatic, full line or staged upgrade route. |
FAQ
Powder and granule weigh filler questions.
Straight answers to help you choose the right filling route before requesting advice.
Which filler is best for powders?
Many fine powders and dry blends should be compared against auger filling first, especially where controlled screw dosing and dust management matter.
Which filler is best for granules?
Free-flowing granules can often be compared through linear weighing or multihead combination weighing depending on speed, accuracy and pack size.
Should closing and labelling be considered early?
Yes. Jars, pouches, tubs and bags all create different sealing, capping, coding and labelling requirements after filling.
Send the product, target weight, pack format and output target.
That gives Lancing enough information to compare a linear weigher, multihead weigher, auger filler or integrated bagging line.
