Filling and sealing line is an assembly line that uses film (or other material) to produce a type of sealed bag that may contain any wet or dry product. It is a packaging process that includes form filling and sealing and can be used in almost any industry.

Vertical Form Fill and Seal Machines (VFFS): BW Flexible Systems offers a full line of vertical form fill and seal machines for high-speed applications that can fit seamlessly into your current production lines or become an integral part of any new system. These VFFS machines are designed for fast throughput and can accommodate a wide range of package formats.

Horizontal Form Fill and Seal Machines: HFFS machines can also be used for fast throughput and are often combined with a shrink tunnel for packaging. These HFFS machines are designed for a variety of applications including pre-measured products or those that require the tube to be lowered onto a precision weighing system before the film is formed and sealed.

L-Bar and L-Sealers: Typically manual, these devices use a frame to pull or activate the seal bar that then comes down and seals the film. They are available in a wide range of sizes and can be incorporated with either an automated conveyor or a shrink tunnel to increase efficiency.

This method is very cost effective and has a lower capital investment than a more complex machine. It is also less prone to errors, so it can be used for more delicate packaging. It can be adapted for many different types of product, and is highly flexible with limited maintenance.
