Product Overview

SW-L Series: 8-Station Rotary Auger Powder Filler

The SW-L series fills pre-formed pouches with powder products on an 8-station rotary carousel. Each station performs one step — bag loading, opening, filling, sealing, cooling, coding, detection, and discharge — all running simultaneously so throughput stays high even at large bag sizes.

A servo-driven auger screw filler (standard) meters each portion volumetrically with ±1 g accuracy for fills under 100 g. All product-contact surfaces are SUS304 stainless steel. The PLC + HMI touch screen stores multiple product recipes and supports stand-up, flat, zipper, 3-side seal, 4-side seal, gusset, and flat-bottom (8-side seal) pouches. Switching between plain and zipper bags of the same size is done on the touch screen by turning the optional zipper-opening device on or off.

Bag Formats

Supported Pouch Types & How to Choose

The SW-L series handles all common premade pouch formats — stand-up, flat, zipper, 3-side seal, 4-side seal, gusset, and flat-bottom (8-side seal). Because the pouches arrive pre-formed, the machine only seals the top opening, so 4-side seal and flat-bottom (8-side seal) bags run without any additional sealing station. Switching between plain and zipper bags of the same size is done on the HMI by turning the optional zipper-opening device on or off. A change to a different bag size means adjusting the grippers and bag magazine; the time it takes depends on the bag format and machine setup. For powder products, we recommend pouches with heat-seal closures; zipper pouches are ideal for resealable consumer packaging.

Machine Operation

How the 8-Station Rotary Cycle Works

All stations run simultaneously — while one pouch is being filled, others are being loaded, sealed, and discharged in parallel.

01

Load & Open

Suction cups pick premade pouches from the magazine onto rotary gripper clamps. A second set of suction cups separates the panels; an air jet inflates the bag fully open. Sensors skip any failed opens automatically.

02

Auger Fill

The servo-driven auger screw filler rotates a calibrated number of turns to dispense the target weight into the open pouch. An optional dust collector at the filling station captures airborne particles to keep the seal area clean and prevent contamination.

03

Seal & Cool

Heated jaws close the bag mouth under controlled pressure — temperature, dwell time, and pressure are adjustable per film type. Cooling plates solidify the seal before release.

04

Code & Discharge

Optional date coder prints batch info on the finished pouch. Gripper clamps release onto the outfeed conveyor. With the optional checkweigher and reject unit, underweight bags are rejected automatically.

Decision Guide

Is a Premade Bag Powder Machine Right for You?

Premade bag machines and form-fill-seal machines both automate powder packaging. The right choice depends on your bag format needs, SKU count, and production volume.

Choose Premade Bag (SW-L) When:

  • You need stand-up, zipper, or gusset pouches with high-quality pre-printed graphics for retail
  • You run multiple SKUs and switch bag formats frequently within a shift
  • Your product requires clean dosing with minimal dust — the enclosed auger, with an optional dust collector, keeps the seal area clean
  • Your SKU mix and changeover frequency, not a fixed daily bag count, decide the economics — the premade-versus-VFFS crossover is a model output, not a constant

Choose Collar Type VFFS When:

  • You only need simple back-seal pillow bags
  • You run a single SKU at high volume (sustained volume at which your own TCO model shows VFFS paying back)
  • Per-bag material cost is the top priority over shelf appearance
  • You are willing to invest in forming tubes for each bag size change

When This Machine Is Not the Right Fit

The SW-L series is built for powder and fine granule products only. For free-flowing dry granules (nuts, seeds, candy, coffee beans), the SW-D series with multi-head combination weigher is the correct choice — a weigher is faster and more accurate for granule products than an auger. For liquids and sauces, use the SW-Y series with pump filling. For mixed products (powder + granule or powder + liquid), contact us for a dual-filling configuration.

Factory Acceptance Test

Tested Before Shipment — How We Prove the SW-L200 Series

Two-Day Run Test on Your Powder

Every SW-L200 series machine goes through a structured Factory Acceptance Test before it ships: a test run across two working days, with speed, seal quality, weight accuracy, and rejection rate all logged. For a rotary premade-bag powder machine that means verifying auger dosing accuracy on your actual powder, gripper transfer and bag opening across your bag sizes (SW-L200: 80–200 mm, SW-L250: 110–250 mm, SW-L320: 180–320 mm bag widths), and seal quality with fine dust in mind. Free sample test run on your own product and pouches — we send you the test video, usually within 2 working days of receiving your samples.

Approve Before We Crate

Before crating, our QC team sends you the FAT report, a test video of your machine running, and photos for approval. If your order requires it, we coordinate SGS, Bureau Veritas, or TÜV pre-shipment inspection and provide full access to the machine and test records. See how the 4-person QC team works at our Factory & Quality Center.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the lead time and payment terms?

Standard lead time is 15–30 working days after deposit confirmation. Payment: 30% deposit on order, 70% balance before shipment (T/T). Custom configurations (non-standard voltage, special HMI language, additional devices) may add 5–10 working days. Contact us with your requirements for a confirmed production schedule.

Can the voltage and HMI language be customized?

Yes. Available in 380V/50Hz (standard for most Asian and European markets) and 220V/60Hz (for North and Central American markets). The HMI touch screen supports English, Spanish, Arabic, Russian, Portuguese, French, and other languages on request. Specify both when requesting a quote so we can confirm availability and lead time.

What warranty and after-sales support is included?

2-year warranty covering manufacturing defects under normal operation and maintenance. Wear parts (auger screws, sealing strips, suction cups, heating elements) are excluded. Common spare parts typically ship from our Guangdong factory within 3 working days. Remote video technical support is free for the lifetime of the machine. On-site installation and operator training are available on request (travel costs quoted separately).

How does the auger filler handle different powder densities?

The auger screw pitch is interchangeable — coarse-pitch screws for dense powders (flour, milk powder), fine-pitch screws for light powders (spice). The servo motor's rotation count per fill cycle is adjustable via the HMI panel, so switching between products requires only a recipe change and, if density differs significantly, swapping the auger screw. We recommend sending a product sample for testing before ordering so we can pre-select the optimal screw configuration.

How do you prevent powder dust from contaminating the seal area?

Two systems work together: (1) the enclosed auger filling tube minimizes airborne particles during dispensing, and (2) an optional dust collector at the filling station captures escaping powder before it reaches the seal zone. This keeps the inner seal surfaces clean for strong, leak-free closures even with very fine powders.

Do you provide installation and operator training?

Every machine ships with a detailed installation manual, wiring diagram, and remote video guidance — most customers self-install successfully with remote support. For on-site installation, a ShengWei engineer can travel to your factory (travel and accommodation costs quoted separately, typically 7–10 days on-site). Training covers machine operation, recipe setup, auger screw changeover, basic maintenance, and troubleshooting.

Can I send a product sample for a packing test?

Yes. Ship 2–5 kg of your powder product plus a sample pouch to our Shantou factory. We will run a packing test on the actual machine, record a video of the results, and share the footage along with recommended auger screw pitch and machine settings. This is the most reliable way to confirm the machine suits your product before committing to an order. Contact us for the shipping address.

How do I choose between the SW-L200, SW-L250, and SW-L320?

The models differ by bag width range: SW-L200 80–200 mm, SW-L250 110–250 mm, and SW-L320 180–320 mm. All three share the same 8-station platform, control system, and auger filling system. Pick the model whose width range covers every pouch you plan to run, from the narrowest to the widest. If you are unsure, send us your bag dimensions and we will recommend the right model.

Is this machine food-safe?

All product-contact surfaces are SUS304 stainless steel, a material suitable for food filling. The machine is CE certified. The enclosed auger filling system and optional dust collector help keep the filling area clean.

What shipping options are available?

We ship via sea freight (FCL or LCL) to any international port, with FOB Shantou as the standard trade term. The machine is crated in a fumigation-free plywood case suitable for customs clearance. Air freight and door-to-door delivery via logistics partners are available on request. We can also work with your nominated freight forwarder. Typical sea freight transit to Southeast Asia is 7–14 days, to the Middle East 18–25 days, and to Latin America 30–40 days.
