Linear weigh fillers
Good for moderate outputs, multiple products and controlled dry product dosing.

Sachet weigh filling
Compare small-pack weighing and dosing routes where accuracy, product flow and pack presentation matter.
Planning the right weigh filling route
Sachet projects often involve small target weights and tighter tolerance expectations. Product flow, cut-off control and pack presentation are central to machine choice.
Powders may need auger dosing or assisted feed control, while granules may suit linear or multihead weighing depending on speed and accuracy requirements.
Because small packs amplify the cost of variation, sample testing and realistic output targets are important.
Key buying checks
- Confirm very small target weights and tolerances.
- Review product cut-off and dust at the fill point.
- Check sachet forming or pouch presentation.
- Consider checkweighing for high-value products.
Routes to compare
Machine options to shortlist.
Small pack filling needs fine control near target weight and clean discharge into the pack.
Multihead weighers
Useful where speed, accuracy and product combination are central to the project.
View routeAuger fillers
Often compared for powders, fine ingredients and products that need screw dosing.
View routeVFFS weigh lines
For automatic bag forming, weighing, filling and sealing from film reels.

Questions before choosing a weigh filler.
Short answers for production teams comparing dry-product weighing and filling routes.
What information is needed for sachet weigh filling?
Useful details include the product name, bulk density if known, target fill weight, acceptable tolerance, pack format, output per minute or hour and whether the line must connect to feeding, sealing, capping, labelling or checkweighing equipment.
Which machine type is normally compared for sachet weigh filling?
Linear weighers, multihead weighers and auger fillers may all be considered depending on product flow, dose size and output target.
Can Lancing help with a complete line rather than a standalone filler?
Yes. Many projects involve product feed, weighing, filling, pack handling, sealing or closing and downstream checking. Sending the full pack route helps avoid choosing a filler that later becomes difficult to integrate.
Send the product, target weight, pack format and output target.
Lancing can advise whether a linear weigher, multihead weigher, auger filler, VFFS line or integrated route is the practical starting point.
