Packaging Automation Equipment
Form-Fill-Seal & Flow Wrapping Systems
Create packages from rollstock, load or dose the product, and complete the seal using horizontal flow wrappers and vertical form-fill-seal equipment.
Equipment selection depends on the product, package style, film, sealing method, dosing or feeding requirements, production rate, and finished presentation.

What Determines the Right Form-Fill-Seal System?
Five areas shape whether a horizontal or vertical platform is appropriate.
Product and Dosing Method
Identify whether the product is a discrete item, counted pieces, or a flowable material, and how it will be measured or presented.
Horizontal or Vertical Product Flow
Determine whether the product should travel through film horizontally or drop into a package formed vertically.
Package Style and Film
Confirm the finished package format and the film structure required for the product, seal, and shelf presentation.
Sealing Requirements
Review whether the application needs standard sealing, extended dwell, or a specific seal condition for the material used.
Production Speed and Infeed Integration
Evaluate the required output and how products are fed, spaced, and synchronized with the wrapping or forming cycle.

Explore Service & SupportFrequently Asked Questions
What is form-fill-seal equipment?
Form-fill-seal equipment creates a package from rollstock, introduces the product, and closes the package within one coordinated process rather than using pre-made bags or containers.
What is the difference between horizontal and vertical form-fill-seal?
Horizontal systems typically move an individual product through film along a horizontal path, which suits discrete items. Vertical systems commonly dose or drop products into a package formed around a vertical tube, which suits flowable, counted, or weighed products.
Can flow wrappers integrate with automatic feeders?
Many flow wrappers are designed around synchronized infeed. Whether an automatic feeder, robotic loader, or manual placement is appropriate depends on the product, the required rate, and how consistently items can be presented to the film.
What information does ATP need to recommend a system?
Helpful details include the product and how it is dosed or presented, the package style and film, sealing requirements, required production speed, available space, and the upstream and downstream equipment in the line.
Match the Package to the Product Flow
Share the product, the package format, and how the line feeds the machine, and ATP can help identify an appropriate wrapping or form-fill-seal approach.
