Transforming Co-Packing with Innovation
Everything you need to know before automating your packaging line.
PLAN IT Packaging provides automated packaging equipment for powders, grains, dry ingredients, pet food, agricultural products, and other granular or free-flowing materials. Solutions can include VFFS machines, auger fillers, linear and multihead weighers, inspection systems, case packing, and palletizing.
For powder and single-serve applications, stick packaging offers a convenient, portion-controlled format. Learn more in our article, The Rise of Stick Packaging: Convenience, Portion Control, and Packaging That Moves With the Customer.
Equipment selection is based on factors such as product flowability, particle size, density, fill weight, dust levels, package size, and production speed.
Yes. PLAN IT Packaging can integrate weighing or filling, VFFS bagging, inspection, case packing, case sealing, and palletizing into a coordinated packaging system. Powder applications may use an auger filler for controlled filling, while granular products may be better suited to a linear or multihead weighing system. PLAN IT evaluates the complete packaging process to determine how the equipment should work together based on throughput, product characteristics, package formats, floor space, and the manufacturer's automation requirements.
Powders and granular products can behave very differently depending on particle size, density, flowability, and dust generation. These characteristics can affect filling accuracy, product handling, sealing, and overall equipment performance. Manufacturers may also need to accommodate multiple bag sizes, fill weights, SKUs, and production rates. PLAN IT evaluates the specific product and packaging requirements before recommending equipment, helping manufacturers select automation suited to weighing or filling accuracy, dust considerations, changeovers, floor space, and future production needs.
Downtime on a high-throughput powder or granular packaging line can quickly affect production schedules and order fulfillment. PLAN IT Packaging provides technical support, preventative maintenance, and spare parts to help manufacturers maintain reliable packaging operations. Preventative maintenance can help identify wear or service requirements before they lead to larger equipment issues, while access to critical replacement parts can help reduce repair delays. PLAN IT's North American support capabilities provide manufacturers with ongoing assistance beyond the initial installation of their packaging machinery.
Partner with us to design an automated packaging system that increases efficiency, enhances productivity, and drives sustainable manufacturing growth.
