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

Fertiliser weigh fillers
Pack granules, pellets and dry additives by weight with industrial filling equipment suited to product flow.
Planning the right weigh filling route
Fertiliser and additive products can be free-flowing, dusty, abrasive or corrosive depending on formulation. The machine route needs to account for materials, sealing and operator protection.
Weigh hopper and bagging systems may be compared for open-mouth bags, tubs or pouches depending on pack size and output.
Lancing can help review the practical route based on product samples and the filling environment.
Key buying checks
- Check product-contact material compatibility.
- Review dust and operator protection.
- Confirm bag type and filled weight.
- Plan cleaning and maintenance access.
Routes to compare
Machine options to shortlist.
Industrial granular products need robust handling as well as controlled dose weight.
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 fertiliser weigh fillers?
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 fertiliser weigh fillers?
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.
