Package the product
For granular, flaky and piece products such as nuts, seeds and confectionery. Review the combination weigher, feeding system and pouch format together.
MACHINE DETAILS
A dedicated pouch-packing unit
The VP-400YW packing unit forms, fills, seals and cuts back-seal pouches. Its quoted bag width range is 1.97–7.87 in (50–200 mm).
MACHINE DETAILS
Coordinate supply and discharge
A bucket elevator and finished-product conveyor can be specified around the weighing and packing system. These supporting items are optional in the source configuration.
Photographs above show the supplied VP-400YW configuration. The elevator, discharge conveyor and coding unit shown are optional items. Model dimensions, dosing ranges and output references remain specific to the VP-400YW.
HOW IT WORKS / VP-400YW
From weighed portion
to finished pouch
Watch the complete cycle, then select any step to keep that movement playing on repeat.
VP-400YW10-head combination weighing
Follow the film path
Rollstock passes over guide rollers. On printed film, the eye-mark sensor provides a reference for registration.
Turn flat film into a tube
The forming collar wraps the film around the filling tube. The longitudinal sealing bar joins the film edges to make the back seal.
Select the portion by weight
Product is distributed to the ten weigh hoppers. The controller selects a combination for the target portion, then the selected hoppers release it to the packing unit. The highlighted heads illustrate one combination; they are not a production recipe.
Advance the film, then seal
Servo-driven synchronized belts pull the film downward. The transverse jaws then close across the film to make the end seal. The drawing separates these coordinated actions so you can follow the pouch.
Release the finished pouch
The sealed web is cut to separate the finished pouch, which drops into collection. The diagram shows the cutting location and product movement; cutter tooling and pouch-support parts are simplified.

About this illustration
Based on the VP-400YW configuration brief and photographs: ten-head computerized combination weighing and a servo-driven synchronized belt film-pulling packing unit. Hoppers are shown in a functional layout; hopper selection, product shapes and timing are illustrative. The packing-unit overview and belt/cutting details use labeled side sections. Cutter tooling and upper/lower pouch support are simplified. The supplied pouch format, feeding arrangement and settings remain specific to this configuration.
