Powder Feeding
Flour is delivered to the dosing section with a feeding method selected for its flow and dust characteristics.

Automatic Flour Packing Machine: Auger Filling and Bag Sealing
Watch a real wheat flour packaging workflow and learn which product, bag and output data are needed to configure a powder bagging line.
Machine Operation Video
From powder feeding to finished bag discharge
This video demonstrates an automatic flour packing process covering powder feeding, auger dosing, open-mouth bag filling, bag-mouth sealing and finished-pack discharge. It gives project buyers a practical view of how the main stations work together.
The shown workflow is intended for wheat flour. With appropriate product testing and machine configuration, similar systems may also handle starch, baking powder, spice powder, milk powder, protein powder, premixes and other dry powders. Final selection depends on flowability, bulk density, dust characteristics, target weight, bag specification and required output.
Packaging Workflow
Five stages shown in the line
Auger Dosing
An auger meters the powder toward the target weight; screw and control settings depend on the material.
Bag Filling
A premade open-mouth bag is positioned and filled with controlled product discharge.
Bag Sealing
The bag mouth is prepared and sealed using a method matched to the bag material and closure requirement.
Pack Discharge
The finished bag moves to downstream inspection, conveying or palletizing as required.
Application Range
Dry powder packaging, confirmed by testing
Powders can behave very differently even at the same target weight. Hygroscopicity, aeration, particle size, bulk density and dust generation all affect feeding, dosing accuracy and achievable speed. PAKEWIN therefore recommends confirming the application with a product sample or detailed material data.
Potential materials include wheat flour, starch, baking powder, spice powder, milk powder, protein powder and dry premixes. Material compatibility is not assumed; the product-contact design and dosing system should be selected after evaluation.

Selection Checklist
Information needed for a reliable proposal
Send the following information so dosing, bag handling, sealing and downstream equipment can be matched to the application.
- Product name, composition or representative sample
- Powder flowability, bulk density and dust behavior
- Target bag weight and acceptable tolerance
- Bag type, material, dimensions and closure method
- Required bags per minute or bags per hour
- Available voltage, phase and frequency
- Factory layout and installation height limits

Frequently Asked Questions
Flour packing machine selection
Can it pack other powders?
Potentially, yes. Starch, baking powder, spice powder, milk powder, protein powder and premixes require separate evaluation and may need different augers, feeding or dust-control arrangements.
What determines the output?
Output depends on target weight, powder behavior, dosing range, bag handling, sealing time and downstream line coordination. A rated speed should be confirmed for the actual product and bag.
Can inspection equipment be added?
Yes. A configured line can include conveying, checkweighing and metal detection, subject to bag size, line height, sensitivity target and factory layout.
How is dust controlled?
Options can include enclosed product-contact areas, dust extraction connections, controlled filling speed and suitable bag clamping. The final system should be selected for the powder and site conditions.
