Combi weighers
A practical route for many free-flowing snack and pet food products that need accurate weighing into finished packs.
Start with the application
Snack and pet food filling machines for flexible dry-product packing.
Snack and pet food enquiries often involve irregular pieces, mixed products, or free-flowing dry goods that still need neat pack presentation. That makes machine selection a balance between weighing accuracy, pouch handling and final sealing quality.
Pouch filling
Well suited where the pack format is a stand-up pouch or other pre-made flexible bag.
Pouch sealing
Important when the filled pack still needs a clean, dependable top seal and finished presentation.
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 flows freely, and whether it is a powder, granule, pellet, part, food product, liquid or gel.
Set the target dose
Share the fill weight or dose range, acceptable tolerance and whether more than one fill size is needed.
Confirm the pack style
Pouch, sachet, jar, rigid container or integrated bagging workflow all change the right machine route.
Define the output
Required packs per minute, footprint limits and any downstream or line-integration requirement help narrow the shortlist.
Frequently asked questions
Common questions for this type of filling project.
Can these machines handle mixed snack products?
They can, provided the product remains suitably free-flowing and the target pack weight can be achieved consistently.
What is the main difference between pouch filling and pouch sealing?
Pouch filling focuses on presenting and filling the pack, while pouch sealing is the final closure stage for completed pouches.
Does pet food need a different machine from snacks?
Sometimes. Product shape, dust, oil content and pack format can change the best route, even when both products are packed in flexible bags.
