Vertical Form Fill Seal Machine (VFFS-Maschine) from Botek machinery is an industry-leading, fully automated packaging system designed for high-speed, high-accuracy production lines. It forms, fills, and seals packages from a single roll of film in one continuous operation, making it the ideal solution for packaging powders, liquids, Granulat, pastes, and solid items across food, pharmazeutisch, chemisch, and agricultural industries.Here’s how it works step by step:
- Film Feeding & Forming
A roll of packaging film is mounted and fed downward. It passes through a forming tube, which gently shapes the flat film into a continuous vertical tube around the product filling point. - Vertical Sealing
The overlapping edges of the film tube are heat-sealed together along its length, creating a strong back seal. - Cross Sealing & Cutting
Two heated sealing jaws close horizontally at the set bag length. They perform two crucial actions at once:
Seal the top of the finished bag below.
Seal the bottom of the new bag being formed above.
The jaws then cut the film between the two seals, separating the finished pouch. - Filling
The product is precisely dosed into the film tube through the forming tube, timed perfectly before the cross jaws close. This ensures the product is sealed inside the newly formed bag at the bottom.
This cycle repeats continuously at high speed, producing uniform, airtight bags one after another with minimal waste and maximum efficiency.
Precision Filling Systems for Every Product
Selecting the correct filling system is critical for achieving high accuracy and preventing product waste.
Our VFFS machines are compatible with a wide range of filling systems, allowing you to customize the machine to perfectly match your product’s characteristics.
Whether you are packaging fine powders, viscous liquids, or irregular granules, we have the solution.
Best For: Nuts, Snacks, candies, hardware, frozen vegetables.
Technology: Utilizes a combination of 10-14 weighing heads to calculate the fastest and most accurate combination of product to reach the target weight.
Benefit: Achieves ultra-high speed and accuracy (±0.1g – 0.5g), ideal for high-value products where giveaway must be minimized.
Best For: Milk powder, Gewürze, Mehl, protein powder, detergent.
Technology: Features a servo-driven auger screw that precisely meters the product volume. Equipped with a dust-proof hopper and anti-caking agitator.
Benefit: Ensures consistent density and prevents air pockets, delivering accurate weights even for fine, aerated powders.
Best For: Sauces, oils, honey, shampoos, lubricants.
Technology: Uses a servo-controlled piston pump or peristaltic pump for volumetric filling. Features a drip-free nozzle design.
Benefit: Handles low to medium viscosity liquids with high precision, preventing drips and ensuring clean seals.
Best For: Rice, beans, sugar, coffee beans, plastic pellets.
Technology: Simple, robust volumetric cup system. The cup fills to a fixed volume and then releases the product.
Benefit: Cost-effective, low maintenance, and highly reliable for products with consistent density.
Best For: Seeds, small hardware, small candies, tea leaves.
Technology: A linear arrangement of weighing buckets that quickly transfer product to achieve the target weight.
Benefit: Faster than traditional multihead weighers for very small products, with excellent accuracy.
