The Amtec VFFS-MW H10-P6 is a weigh packaging machine — also commonly referred to as a form-fill-seal or FFS packaging line — combining a vertical form-fill-seal unit with an integrated ten-head multihead weigher to automatically weigh and pack bulk materials and granulates into finished sealed bags. Amtec is a recognised manufacturer of packaging machinery, producing weighing and bagging solutions for the food, snack, and related processing industries.
The machine is designed for compact installation without a platform stand, making it suitable for facilities with limited floor space or headroom. It handles pillow bags and, with the appropriate gusset tool fitted, gusseted stand-up pouches; a separately mounted sealing unit also enables production of pyramid-shaped bags. The operator interface is a touch screen, and the machine runs under PLC control. Additional equipment includes an eye mark sensor for precise seal and cut positioning, a pneumatic sealing unit for end sealing, a servo motor driving film pull, and a ribbon printer for applying batch numbers, best-before dates, and other variable data directly to the packaging.
The multihead weigher carries ten weighing heads, each with a volume of 1.6 litres, and covers a single-dump weighing range of 10 to 1,500 grams. Weighing accuracy is rated at X(0.5). Each head operates a single discharge flap, and all product-contact parts are manufactured from AISI 304 stainless steel, with AISI 316 available as a paid upgrade. The standard surface finish is plain, with a dimpled surface also available at additional cost.
The VFFS unit runs at a maximum speed of 60 cycles per minute under neutral conditions. It accepts film widths between 140 and 460 mm and produces bags ranging from 40 to 300 mm in length and 60 to 220 mm in width, with double film pulling available to accommodate longer bags beyond that range. Product-contact parts on the VFFS section are likewise AISI 304 stainless steel. The machine runs on a 220 V, 50/60 Hz single-phase supply, with a rated power consumption of 4.1 kW. Compressed air is required at 0.4 to 0.8 MPa, with a consumption rate of 0.6 m³/min. The overall footprint is 1,766 mm long by 1,246 mm wide by 2,163 mm tall, and the machine weighs 786 kg. This unit is located in Germany and is offered in used condition.
