Verified Lancing references

Published model and tooling information, with the conditions behind each figure.

The figures below are drawn from current first-party Lancing model pages. They are reference specifications, not a guarantee for every powder or pack. A final proposal must confirm the actual product, tooling, container or film, site utilities and line interfaces.

Machine	Published model and reference range	Published output or accuracy context	Application checks before quotation
Tabletop Auger Filling Machine	LU-FM100B. Published screw references: Φ19 mm 0.5–50 g; Φ25 mm 2–15 g; Φ38 mm 20–50 g; Φ51 mm 30–100 g; Φ60 mm 100–500 g; Φ70 mm 200–1000 g; Φ80 mm 500–2000 g, with the largest range stated as material dependent. Published hopper reference: 35 litres, customised.	Published working capacity: 10–25 bottles per minute, stated as based on filling volume. Published accuracy: ±1%, stated as based on the filling range. Both figures must be checked with the selected screw, product condition, pack and operator method.	Representative sample, chosen screw and nozzle, hopper feed or agitation, container opening, fill height, dust behaviour and repeatable operator presentation.
LU-FM4A Servo Powder Filling Machine	LU-FM4A. Three filling heads with a published 50–300 g filling range, stated as customisable. Published electrical reference: 380 V, 6 kW.	No verified output or accuracy test condition is stated in the supplied first-party reference. Confirm performance by a representative sample trial and by reviewing the complete conveyor and downstream sequence.	Head-to-head balance, hopper replenishment, container spacing, sensor positions, conveyor control, reject or check strategy, dust containment and downstream closing.
Automatic VFFS Auger Powder Filling Machine	LU-FS06. Published filling reference: 150–2000 ml. Published bag size: 60–250 mm wide by 80–350 mm long. Published film-thickness reference: 0.05–0.2 mm.	Published packaging speed: 5–80 bags per minute. The first-party page states that throughput depends on product, format and operator workflow; the real result must also be checked against film travel, dosing time, sealing dwell and dust at the seal area.	Film structure and width, finished bag dimensions, forming parts, dose timing, extraction, seal quality, coding, discharge and secondary packing.
LU-GWF Multi-Hopper Granule Powder Weigh Filler	LU-GWF2. Published range: 1–100 g × 2, with two 1.5 kg hoppers. The published reference lists 304L stainless-steel housing, 110/220 V and 380 W.	Published margin of error: ±0.2 g. No product, target-weight or statistical test condition is stated, so the figure should be verified with the actual material, feed settings and pack before it is used as an acceptance criterion.	Particle flow, feed cut-off, vibration settings, product damage, static, target weight, hopper refill, discharge path and pack positioning.

Use a representative trial to convert a catalogue reference into a production result.

Published ranges identify a possible configuration; they do not show how a particular batch of powder will feed, settle or respond to hopper refill. The trial should reproduce the product condition, pack opening, fill height and operating method expected in production. Agree the target and acceptance rules before the first fill is made.

Hold the important conditions constant

Record the product batch and density method, the screw or weigh tooling, hopper level, agitation or feed settings, container or film, target dose, fill height and measurement instrument. If the machine is tested at more than one target, treat each target as a separate condition. Include a refill event where hopper level may affect feed pressure or product aeration.

Record every result in the agreed sequence

A useful report lists each measured fill and identifies start-up, adjustment, refill and rejected fills. Calculate the mean, minimum, maximum and standard deviation for the agreed production sequence, then compare those results with the stated target and individual tolerance. Weight data should be read alongside observations on dust, spillage, headspace, seal contamination, container stability and product damage.

Acceptance area	Agree before the trial	Evidence to retain
Dose performance	Target average, individual limits, handling of start-up fills and the sequence to be measured.	Individual results, summary statistics, adjustments and rejected-fill reasons.
Output	Whether the measure is filler cycles, finished packs or sustained line output, and the exact product and pack condition.	Timed run, stoppage log, refill events and the slowest line stage.
Pack quality	Acceptable dust, spillage, headspace, closure or seal condition and finished-pack presentation.	Photographs or video, inspection record and any pack rejected for reasons other than weight.
Changeover	SKU change, cleaning boundary, parts to remove, settings to change and line-clearance requirement.	Observed sequence, tools used, inaccessible residue points and restart checks.

Compare the route before the model.

Use the powder filling machine guide for product and pack selection, or review complete powder and granule lines where capping, sealing, labelling or coding affects the result.

Specification questions

Questions to settle before relying on a machine figure

Are the published machine speeds guaranteed for every powder?

No. Published speeds are reference figures. The sustained result depends on the product, target dose, tooling, pack handling, hopper refill, dust control and downstream stages, so it should be confirmed under agreed trial conditions.

How should powder filling accuracy be verified?

Use the actual product and pack, hold the machine conditions constant, record every fill in the agreed sequence and calculate the mean, minimum, maximum and standard deviation. Keep rejected fills and the reasons for rejection in the report.

Can one auger screw cover the complete published fill range?

Not necessarily. Published ranges are normally split across screw diameters. The screw, tube, nozzle and hopper arrangement should be selected for the product density, target dose and required fill time.

When should a weigh filler be tested instead of an auger?

A weigh filler is a useful comparison for free-flowing granules, seeds and small particles, or where variation in bulk volume makes target weight the stronger control method.

What is the difference between filler speed and finished-line output?

Filler speed counts dosing cycles. Finished-line output also includes product feed, pack presentation, settling, closing or sealing, coding, checking and discharge. The slowest stable stage sets the sustained line rate.

What should be sent with a machinery enquiry?

Send a representative product sample, bulk-density information with the method used, target weight range, pack and closure samples, output target, available space, utilities, cleaning expectations and any known flow or dust issues.

Ask for a model comparison built around a representative sample.

Lancing can compare the published reference with the real product, tooling, pack and line sequence before the final specification is agreed.

Production-duty matrix

Compare the work around the dose as carefully as the dosing principle.

A machine can be technically capable of dispensing the product yet still be the wrong production route. The deciding difference is often how product reaches the hopper, how each pack is presented, which tasks remain with the operator and what must happen immediately after filling. Use the matrix below to define that operating envelope before comparing models or published cycle rates.

Machinery route	Work normally retained around the filler	Evidence that supports the route	Reason to review the next automation level
Tabletop or compact filler	Manual hopper loading, pack placement, fill initiation, pack removal and separate closing or sealing.	Short or variable batches, manageable pack weights, repeatable operator presentation and a cleaning method suited to frequent changes.	Pack presentation limits output, operator motion becomes inconsistent, refill interrupts production or downstream closing becomes the bottleneck.
Semi-automatic filling station	Operator presents or indexes packs while the machine controls the dose; fixtures, feeders or local extraction may support the task where specified.	Stable workstation method, clear in-process checks, acceptable ergonomic reach and a measured changeover routine.	Demand requires continuous pack flow, multiple manual steps create variation or line control is needed between filling and closing.
Automatic rigid-container filler	Conveyors, gating, sensors and controls present bottles, jars or tubs; product feed and downstream closing must remain balanced.	Representative container set, sustained feed, no-container/no-fill behaviour, clean closure surfaces and defined blocked or starved states.	Several pack operations need one control philosophy, accumulation is required or the proposed filler cannot recover cleanly from normal line stops.
VFFS powder packing route	Roll film is formed, the dose is synchronised with bag movement and the finished pack is sealed, coded and discharged.	Production-intent film, forming dimensions, seal inspection, dust control, dose timing and finished-pack checks through a sustained run.	The pack construction is better supplied as a premade pouch, the product needs a different dosing principle or secondary handling governs the saleable rate.
Weight-based filling route	Product is fed to weigh hoppers or a weighing station, then discharged into the pack or a downstream bagging system.	Stable feed, clean cut-off, product-damage assessment, target-specific fill results and compatible discharge timing.	The product does not feed consistently, the pack interface causes loss or damage, or a combination-weighing or specialist route is a better owner of the application.

Use escalation triggers rather than a headline speed target.

Move from compact to semi-automatic or automatic equipment when the surrounding work—not only the dosing cycle—requires it. Useful triggers include repeated operator repositioning, frequent hopper interruption, unstable pack presentation, a closure stage that cannot keep pace, a need for controlled rejects or a requirement to exchange ready, run, fault and blocked signals with other equipment.

Review semi-automatic powder fillers for flexible batch work, automatic powder filling machines for conveyed rigid packs, powder bottle filling where the container and closure set the interface, and VFFS powder packing machinery where roll film forms the pack.

Evidence before model comparison

Compare machine families only after the difficult production condition is defined.

A model list is useful when the product, pack, dose and operating duty are already bounded. Use the evidence route below to remove options that cannot be proved for the application.

Decision	Evidence	Technical guide
Dosing principle	Flow, density, aeration, bridging, flooding, particle care and refill behaviour.	Flowability and density
Quality target	Target, measurement method, consecutive results, average, variation and finished-pack criteria.	Accuracy and repeatability
Containment	Transfer, hopper, nozzle, settling, closing, cleaning and site risk-assessment boundary.	Dust control
Acceptance	Representative samples, challenge states, raw results, changeover and line-state tests.	Trial and FAT
Deployment	Delivery access, utilities, extraction, maintenance clearances, controls and training.	Site requirements

Questions that separate apparently similar powder fillers

Why can two powders at the same target weight need different filling tooling?

The powders may occupy different volumes, feed differently into the metering zone, create different dust or require a different cut-off. Tooling is selected around product behaviour and the practical dose volume, not weight alone. Use the auger versus weigh filler guide before comparing models.

When should the pack format decide the machine route?

The pack becomes decisive when opening size, stability, usable volume, seal or closure cleanliness and presentation cannot be separated from dosing. A VFFS bag, premade pouch and bottle may use a similar dosing principle but require different handling systems. Compare them in the powder packaging format guide.

How can buyers compare semi-automatic and automatic proposals fairly?

Compare the complete operator cycle and sustained saleable output, including product refill, pack loading, checks, rejects, changeover and downstream closing. Do not convert one isolated dose cycle into an hourly figure. The automation-level comparison sets out the decision.

Production comparison

Compare the operating evidence, not only the machine label.

The current model table shows published references. The project decision should also compare how each route is fed, checked, cleaned and connected to the finished-pack process.

Decision area	Semi-automatic auger	Automatic auger	Vibratory weigh filling	VFFS packing
Human work	Pack presentation, fill initiation or supervision, checking and transfer are normally operator tasks.	Operators replenish product and packs, respond to stops and complete checks while conveyors handle the routine cycle.	An operator may present the pouch and trigger or receive the weighed discharge.	Operators manage film, product supply, checks, reels, faults and finished-bag handling.
Rate evidence	Record the complete operator cycle and normal checking frequency.	Record sustained line states, starvation, downstream blocking, rejects and refill recovery.	Record feed cut-off, weigh stabilisation, discharge and pack handling.	Record dosing, film travel, sealing dwell, settling, coding and discharge together.
Product proof	Minimum, nominal and maximum doses through realistic hopper levels.	Head balance, conveyor presentation, refill and restart with the real container.	Flow, vibration response, particle damage and discharge into the real pack.	Powder settling, seal-area cleanliness and film compatibility at the intended bag size.
Project record	Approved tooling, recipe, operator method and first-off checks.	Format parts, line speeds, interlocks, reject logic and restart rules.	Target, feeder settings, cut-off behaviour, scale checks and pack-support method.	Forming set, film specification, bag dimensions, temperature, dwell and dose timing.

Use the output and speed guide to state a comparable rate, then complete the powder filling specification checklist before requesting a model-level proposal.

Beyond the dosing head

Match the powder filler to the surrounding feed, pack and inspection system.

The same filling head can perform differently when the hopper refill, bag presentation or weight-verification boundary changes. Use these routes to complete the machinery comparison.
