Stick pack machinery

Stick pack machines for powder and portion-pack applications

Use this guide when comparing stick pack and narrow sachet formats for powder or portion product applications.

Specification focus

Keep the machine choice tied to the product and pack.

Stick packs are compact, so lane layout, dose control, film tracking and sealing accuracy become especially important.

Stick pack format checks

Stick packs usually require narrow film lanes and accurate dosing. Pack width, length, tear notch and print registration should be confirmed early.

Powder dosing for stick packs

Powder stick packs commonly use auger dosing. Fine powders need special attention to dust control and seal-area cleanliness.

Output and lane count

Output is usually improved by adding lanes, but the machine must still allow practical roll changes, cleaning and access.
