APHS-140 Horizontal Flat Pouch Filling and Sealing Machine

In the manufacturing process, optimizing packaging dimensions and ensuring high-speed operation are key factors in cost savings. The APHS-140 Horizontal Flat Pouch Filling and Sealing Machine is a compact, high-performance automation solution tailored specifically for small-to-medium premade pouches (flat pouches, small stand-up pouches, and shaped pouches). With its flexible horizontal transfer mechanism and vacuum-assisted pouch opening system, the equipment delivers tight, aesthetic seals and outstanding packaging speeds.

What is the APHS-140 Horizontal Flat Pouch Filling and Sealing Machine?

The APHS-140 is a linear horizontal automatic packaging machine designed to process small premade pouches with widths ranging from 60 to 140 mm.

The system executes an automated, fully enclosed workflow—from pouch feeding and vacuum suction opening to material filling and heat sealing. Engineered specifically for flat pouch formats, the machine achieves an impressive packaging speed of up to 50 pouches/minute.

Automated Operational Process:

• Pouch Feeding: The automatic feeding conveyor delivers premade flat pouches to the gripping position.
• Vacuum Pouch Opening: The integrated vacuum pump drives suction heads to open the pouch mouth accurately.
• Filling: Synchronizes seamlessly with matching dosing units (liquid/paste pumps, auger fillers, multi-head weighers, etc.).
• Pouch Sealing: Heat seals the edge neatly and securely, complete with an automated temperature fault alarm system.
• Finished Product Discharge: Transfers fully sealed pouches off the line.
