How to choose auger and funnel tooling

The size and type of the auger and funnel tooling is determined by a number of factors:

Fill weight

Dosing rate

Accuracy

Container neck opening

Product characteristics

A small auger and funnel means a slower fill speed but results in greater accuracy. Conversely, a larger auger will deliver product more quickly but less accurately.  Where a wide range of fill weights are required, more than one tooling set may be needed to achieve the necessary combination of speed and accuracy.

Consideration must also be given to the size of container that is being filled.  For clean filling, the bottom of the funnel should be positioned as close to the top of the container as possible.  If the container neck opening is 5cm ID, the funnel needs to be sized accordingly.
