Powder and granule filling machines

PRECI for UNIMAC-GHERRI automatic powder and granule filling machines are versatile solutions designed to handle products with different densities and particle sizes, from powdered food ingredients (such as flour, sugar, cocoa, and supplements) to granular products (such as coffee, legumes, and cereals), with bridge-breaking systems for highly cohesive substances.

Powder and granule filling machines use advanced dosing technologies, including rotary cup systems, auger systems, or drawer dosers for small volumes, ensuring precision, reliability, and ease of use. They can process different types of containers, from bottles to jars, made of plastic, paper, glass, or metal, ensuring fast format changeovers and optimized production cycles.
