Lancing helps UK manufacturers compare packaging machinery by product behaviour, dosing technology, film and seal requirements, target bags per minute, available utilities and line layout. The aim is to specify the correct form fill and seal machinery route before a formal proposal is prepared.
A vertical form fill seal machine takes a reel of flexible packaging film, forms it around a forming set, fills the product vertically into the pack and seals the finished bag. This makes VFFS machinery a practical route for high-volume sachets, stick packs, pillow bags, back seal pouches and many small bag formats.
VFFS is normally strongest when the product can be dosed consistently into a forming tube or multi-lane system. Powder applications often use auger filling, granules often use weighing or volumetric dosing, and liquids or pastes use pump filling with seal control matched to the film and product temperature.
Before choosing a VFFS machine, confirm product flow, fill weight or volume, pack width and length, film structure, seal type, target bags per minute, available voltage and air, printing or coding needs, conveyors, inspection and operator access around the line.

VFFS means vertical form fill seal. The machine forms a bag from film, fills it vertically and seals the pack in one automated process.
Yes. Powders usually require auger filling and dust control, while granules may use weighing, cup or volumetric dosing depending on the product and fill accuracy required.
