Semi-automatic auger fillers
Compact auger filling for short runs, product trials, smaller batches and operator-presented jars, bottles, tubs or pouches.
View routeStart with the production route you need: compact operator-fed auger filling, conveyor-fed automation, VFFS powder bagging or a complete dry-product line.
Start by deciding whether you need a bench machine, a conveyor-fed filler, a bagging system or a full powder filling line. The right route depends on the product, pack, output target and available space.
Compare the main auger filler options, then move into the detailed route that matches your powder and pack.

Use the images below to compare compact, semi-automatic, automatic, rotary and VFFS auger filling routes before discussing the best fit for your production line.

View routeAuger fillers are normally used for powders and some fine granules where controlled screw dosing gives a more suitable route than a pump, cup filler or basic gravity feed.
Yes, but the container handling and discharge setup changes. Rigid containers, premade pouches, VFFS bags and sachets all need different presentation and sealing arrangements.
Send the product name, sample behaviour, fill weight range, pack dimensions, target output, accuracy requirement, available space and any sealing, capping, labelling or coding steps.
Send the product, pack format, target fill weight and required output so Lancing can suggest the most suitable auger filler route.
The figures below come from first-party Lancing project specifications. They show how model, tooling and test conditions are linked; they are not universal guarantees for every powder or pack.
| Model and route | Dose and hopper basis | Screw, tooling and controls | Accuracy test condition | Output basis |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lancing LU-FM750F Semi-automatic servo auger filler | Documented tooling bands of 5–50 g, 50–300 g, 300–1000 g and 1000–5000 g by auger change. Approx. 50 L hopper. Final selection depends on density, pack and trials. | Interchangeable auger, tube and filling-spout sets; internal motorised agitator in a documented 100 g–5 kg configuration; PLC touchscreen, foot-pedal operation and weighing-feedback interface. | Supplier reference measurement error ±1% in the documented configuration. Final result is subject to product, selected tooling, density, scale arrangement and agreed trial method. | Indicative operator-cycle rate of 1–8 fills/min, depending on fill weight, powder flow, pack handling and settling time. |
| Lancing LU-FM4A Three-head automatic servo auger filler | Published 50–300 g range, configured around an approved nominal 50 g bottle application. Three powder hoppers with conditioning arrangements selected after testing. | Three independently driven servo auger heads, custom screw and nozzle set, PLC/HMI recipes, photoelectric bottle detection and no-bottle/no-fill logic. | No generic accuracy figure is published in the documented project basis. Fill repeatability is to be established during sample trials and factory acceptance testing using the approved powder and bottle. | Practical integrated-line target of 25–35 bottles/min for the documented nominal 50 g bottle project, subject to product and line trials. |
How to use the table: compare the documented route with your product, but do not select tooling from fill weight alone. Bulk density, flowability, pack opening, headspace, dust and required cleaning can all change the final build.
A model comparison should lead to a sample-led test plan. Confirm the powder batch, target weights, proposed tooling, hopper condition, scale and sampling method, output condition and the real pack. Record start-up, stable running, hopper replenishment, planned stops and restart so the result represents production rather than a single favourable fill.
Read the auger selection guide, compare auger and weigh filling, or send the application through the enquiry checklist.
Lancing can use your fill range, bulk density, pack opening, output and cleaning requirements to identify the model and trial route that should be evaluated.
