Colombia High Speed Powder Packing Machine & Automatic Cartoning Line
High Speed Powder Packaging and Cartoning Line for Colombia
SAMFULL completed a customized high-speed powder packing machine and automatic cartoning line project for a customer in Colombia.
The project was designed for different powder packaging requirements, including 200g, 300g, 500g and 1000g packages. For the 200g, 300g and 500g products, the machine produces back-seal bags, while the 1000g package uses a gusset bag configuration.
To further automate the customer's production process, one of the high-speed powder packing machines was directly connected to a fully automatic cartoning machine, creating an integrated system from powder dosing and bag packaging to automatic carton loading and hot melt glue sealing.
This project provides a practical solution for manufacturers looking to reduce manual handling and automate both primary powder packaging and secondary carton packaging.

Complete Powder Packing and Cartoning Line
The complete production process can be configured as:
Powder feeding → Auger dosing → Bag forming → Powder filling → Sealing → Cutting → Finished sachet conveying → Automatic cartoning → Hot melt glue sealing → Finished carton output
The project includes two high-speed powder packing machines, with one machine specifically configured to connect directly with the automatic cartoning system. The feeding system was also upgraded with 500L square powder hoppers to support continuous production.
This integrated layout reduces intermediate manual handling between the powder packing process and carton packaging process.

High Speed Automatic Powder Packing Machine
The primary packaging section uses a high-speed vertical powder packing machine combined with an auger filling system.
For powder products, stable feeding and dosing are important because fine powders may generate dust and can behave differently from ordinary granular materials.
For this Colombia project, the powder filling system uses a 50L dosing hopper with SUS304 product-contact surfaces. A screw feeding system automatically transfers powder into the dosing unit.
The complete configuration allows powder feeding, quantitative dosing and bag packaging to operate continuously.
200g, 300g and 500g Back-Seal Powder Bags
For the main carton-packaging products, the machine produces 200g, 300g and 500g back-seal bags.
The production specification defines:
Film width: 330mm
Bag width: 150mm
Bag length: 210mm
Top seal: 15mm
Bottom seal: 15mm
Center seal: 15mm
These 150 × 210mm powder bags are also the packages designed to enter the downstream automatic cartoning machine.
This allows the packing machine and cartoner to operate as one continuous production line.
1000g Gusset Bag Powder Packaging
In addition to the smaller back-seal bags, the high-speed powder machine is also configured for 1000g powder packaging.
The 1kg package uses a gusset bag structure with:
Film width: 370mm
Bag width: 115mm
Bag length: 310mm
Gusset width: 55mm
A separate auger screw is provided for the 1kg packaging requirement.
This allows the same project to cover both smaller powder packages and larger 1kg packages.
Automatic Cartoning at 50–60 Boxes Per Minute
A major part of this Colombia project is the integration of the powder packing machine with a fully servo automatic cartoning machine.
The cartoner was specifically required to match the production output of the high-speed powder packaging machine, with a target operating speed of approximately:
50–60 boxes per minute.
Instead of collecting finished powder bags manually and loading them into cartons separately, packaged products are transferred directly from the primary packaging machine toward the cartoning section.
This significantly increases the automation level of the complete line.
Fully Servo Automatic Cartoning Machine
The secondary packaging section adopts a fully servo-controlled automatic cartoning machine.
Its main functions include:
carton feeding → carton opening → packaged product loading → carton forming → hot melt glue sealing → finished carton discharge
The production specification requires key control components such as the PLC, touchscreen and servo control system to use Siemens components, while other electrical and pneumatic components use specified brands including Schneider and AirTAC.
This provides a more standardized control architecture for the complete packaging line.
Why Integrate Powder Packing with Automatic Cartoning?
For manufacturers with increasing production volume, buying a high-speed powder packing machine alone does not necessarily eliminate the labor bottleneck.
If finished bags still need to be:
manually collected → manually arranged → manually loaded into cartons → manually closed
the secondary packaging process can become the limiting factor of the entire production line.
By connecting the high-speed powder packaging machine directly to an automatic cartoner, the Colombia customer automated both primary and secondary packaging.
The result is a more complete solution:
automatic powder feeding + automatic dosing + automatic bagging + automatic conveying + automatic cartoning + automatic glue sealing
This is particularly suitable for factories seeking to expand production while reducing repetitive manual packaging operations.

The machines use 220V, 60Hz, three-phase power, matching the electrical configuration specified for this Colombia project.
Complete Automatic Powder Packing Line
For customers looking beyond a standalone packing machine, SAMFULL can develop an integrated powder packaging line according to the actual product, packaging format and downstream automation requirements.
A typical solution can include:
Powder feeding system
↓
Auger filler
↓
High-speed vertical powder packing machine
↓
Finished product conveying
↓
Automatic cartoning machine
↓
Hot melt glue sealing
↓
Finished carton output
The equipment configuration should be determined according to the actual powder characteristics, target filling weight, bag dimensions, required speed, carton dimensions and factory layout.
