There exist various types of vertical packaging machines, and VFFS machines stand out for their integration of multiple functions, including pouch making, filling, data printing, and accounting. Thanks to their servo motor film pulling mechanism and automatic bias correction during film pulling, VFFS machines operate smoothly and reliably. The horizontal and vertical sealing processes utilize pneumatic cylinders to ensure consistency and reliability.
Boasting a compact design and advanced electrical control, vertical form fill seal machines are versatile and efficient packaging solutions suitable for diverse industries such as snacks, sugar, pet food, coffee, tea, and more. To accommodate various pouch styles, VFFS machines have been enhanced and adapted. They now include new gadget devices that allow for the production of a wide range of pouches, such as pillow pouches, gusset sachets, perforated pouches with hang-out features for shelf display, and quad seal pouches.
Wondering how the vertical form fill seal machine actually operates? In essence, the machine takes a large roll of plastic film, typically compounded plastic film, and transforms it into a ready-to-use pouch. The process involves forming the pouch, filling it with the intended product, and sealing it, all carried out in a vertical motion.
