This article provides a detailed introduction to the definition, types, and new innovative design of our SLXF series semi-automatic spout pouch filling machines. Hope that it can help you quickly understand this practical equipment suitable for small and medium-sized production.

A semi-automatic spout pouch filling machine is a semi-automatic filling device specifically designed for spout pouch packaging. It is widely used for filling food products such as jams, hot sauces, peanut butter, salad dressings, and condiments. It also has wide applications in the cosmetics and chemical industries.
Unlike fully automatic equipment, the semi-automatic spout bag filling machine adopts a manual assistance + automatic filling working mode:
Operation Steps | Operation Method | Instructions |
Bag Loading | Manual Placement | The operator manually places the spout bag into the filling position |
Filling Start | Foot Pedal Control | Pressing the foot pedal switch automatically completes the quantitative filling. |
Filling Stop | Releasing the foot pedal switch or automatic stop | Automatically stops after reaching the set filling volume. |
Bag Removal | Manual Bag Removal | Manually remove the bag after filling. |
Semi-automatic spout pouch filling machines typically only have filling functions and do not include automatic bag feeding or automatic capping. Their core value lies in:
● Low investment: The price is only 1/4 to 1/3 of that of fully automatic equipment.
● Simple operation: No complex training required; one person can operate it.
● High flexibility: Suitable for small-batch, multi-variety production.
● Convenient maintenance: Simple structure and low failure rate.
Applicable Scenarios | Description |
Startup Brands | Limited investment, need to quickly start production |
Small-batch production | Daily capacity 500-1500 pouches |
Multi-variety production | Frequent changes in flavors and formulas |
Usually the semi-automatic type pouch bag filling machines are not fixed, you can find different types on the market.
Semi-automatic spout bag filling machines are mainly divided into two types according to their filling principles:
1)Piston-type Semi-automatic Filling Machine
Working Principle: The reciprocating motion of the piston quantitatively pushes out the material in the cylinder and injects it into the spout bag through the filling nozzle.
Project | Description |
Suitable Materials | Jam, tomato sauce, beverage, soup, cosmetic cream, etc |
Speed | 5-15 BPM |
Advantages | Low cost, affordable price |
2)Rotary Pump Type Semi-Automatic Filling Machine
Working Principle: The rotating rotor continuously conveys the material to the filling nozzle, outputting a fixed volume per revolution.
Project | Description |
Suitable Materials | Jam, ketchup, peanut butter, hot sauce, mayonnaise, salad dressing, etc |
Speed | 5-20 BPM |
Advantages | Fast filling, wide filling volume range |
About the structure, the machine mainly has two types, tabletop type and standing type.
1)Tabletop Semi-Automatic Filling Machine
Project | Description |
Structure | Compact and small, placed on a workbench |
Applications | Laboratories, small workshops, and environments with limited space |
Advantages | Small footprint, easy to move |
2)Vertical Semi-Automatic Filling Machine
Project | Description |
Structure | Floor-standing, with frame and casters |
Applications | Laboratories, small workshops |
Advantages | Good stability and comfortable operation |
To further improve the ease of operation and production efficiency of semi-automatic spout bag filling machines, our company has recently launched a dual-station spout bag chuck design, a unique and innovative upgrade among similar products on the market.
Traditional semi-automatic spout bag filling machines generally suffer from the following problems in use:
Pain Points | Manifestations | Impacts |
Difficulty in One-Handed Operation | One hand holds the bag, the other presses the switch | Inconvenient operation, low efficiency |
Inaccurate Positioning | Bag opening needs repeated adjustments to align with the filling nozzle | Prone to leakage, waste |
Inefficient Single-Station Operation | Only one bag can be filled at a time, frequent bag changes | Long idle time for workers |
1)Core Design: A dual-station nozzle bag chuck is installed below the filling nozzle, which can hold two bags at a time. The bags are automatically pushed to the bottom of the filling nozzle by a cylinder.
2)Work flow: A [Operator manually clamps bag] → B [Dual-station chuck] → C [Cylinder pushes to station 1] → D [Filling station 1 complete] → F [Filling station 2 complete] → G [Operator removes bag]
You can watch the following video to see the working performance:
Advantages | Explanation | Value |
Two-Handed Operation | Hands are only needed for bag placement and clamping; foot switch controls filling | Easier operation, less fatigue |
Precise Positioning | The chuck fixes the bag opening position, eliminating the need for repeated alignment | Reduces leakage and increases yield |
Continuous Operation | One bag can be filled while another is pre-filled | Increases efficiency by 30-50% |
Dual-Station Alternation | Automatic cylinder pushes, no waiting required | Reduces manual idle time |
