Bosnia Client Frozen Croissant & Frozen Bun Weighing Packing Machine with Multihead Weigher |
Samfull recently completed an automatic frozen croissant and frozen bun weighing and packaging project for a customer in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
The customer's main products are frozen croissants and frozen buns, with several target pack sizes including 400g, 900g, and 2-3kg.
Frozen croissants and buns are bulky, irregular in shape, and relatively fragile. Their surfaces may also carry frost or moisture during cold-chain handling. Therefore, the customer required a packaging system capable of stable feeding, accurate weighing, gentle handling, and reliable bag sealing.
For this project, we configured a complete automatic line consisting of a 14-head 5L frozen-food multihead weigher, vertical form-fill-seal packing machine, feeding conveyor, coding system, perforation device, and rotary collecting table.

Packaging Solution
The system uses a 14-head 5L multihead weigher designed for frozen and bulky food products. Compared with standard small-capacity weighers, the 5L hopper configuration provides more space for products such as croissants and buns.
Key features include IP65 waterproof construction, dimpled weighing buckets, heating function, large-capacity hoppers, and combination weighing technology.
These features help improve feeding stability and reduce sticking caused by frost, moisture, or low-temperature production environments.
After weighing, the frozen croissants or buns are discharged into the vertical packaging machine, which automatically completes:
Film pulling → bag forming → product filling → sealing → coding → cutting → finished bag discharge
The machine supports 400g, 900g, and 2-3kg packs and is equipped with two bag formers to accommodate different bag widths.
Why This Solution Is Suitable for Frozen Croissants and Buns
Frozen croissants and buns differ from ordinary granular foods because they are relatively light, bulky, and easy to deform or break. Therefore, the packaging system needs to consider both weighing accuracy and gentle product handling.
The main advantages of this configuration are:
Large 5L weighing hoppers for bulky bakery products
Gentle discharge to reduce breakage
Dimpled buckets to improve product flow
Heating function to reduce frost-related sticking
IP65 waterproof construction
Multiple packaging weights on one line
Suitable for retail and bulk packaging
Automatic feeding, weighing, filling, sealing, coding, and collecting
Suitable Products
This solution is particularly suitable for:
Frozen croissants
Frozen buns
Frozen bread rolls
Frozen pastries
Frozen puff pastry
Frozen dough products
