Combi weighers
Usually the leading route for free-flowing granules and pellets that benefit from combination weighing accuracy.
Start with the application
How to choose a granule filling machine in the UK.
Granule filling projects often behave very differently from fine powder projects. Buyers usually need to compare combination weighing, bagging format and output requirements rather than just choosing from a generic machine list.
Vertical form fill and seal machines
Useful where the final granule pack is a formed bag produced directly from film.
Pouch filling machinery
Relevant where the chosen pack is a pre-made pouch or stand-up flexible pack.
What to send with your enquiry
Useful details help Lancing recommend the right route.
Explain the product
Describe how the material behaves in practice, whether it is a powder, granule, pellet, bean, snack, part or dry food product, and how it flows in the packhouse environment.
Set the target dose
Share the fill weight or dose range, acceptable tolerance and whether more than one fill size is required.
Confirm the pack style
Pouch, sachet, rigid container, stand-up pouch or a bag formed on the machine all change the most suitable route.
Define the output
Required packs per minute, footprint limits and any wider line-integration requirement help narrow the shortlist.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions for this type of filling project.
Are granules better suited to weighers than auger systems?
Free-flowing granules usually are, because combination weighing is often more natural for that product behaviour.
What else affects the choice?
Pack style, target weight and required output all matter alongside the product itself.
Can this route also apply to pellets?
Yes. Many pellet enquiries follow a similar machine selection path.
