01
Machine Overview
The Automatic Single Head Auger Powder Filling Machine by Technogen Enterprise is an online powder packaging system designed to fill measured quantities of compatible dry powders and microgranular products into bottles and jars. It integrates a servo-driven auger filling head, powder hopper, automated bottle conveyor and mechanical bottle-indexing arrangement within a compact industrial machine.
The machine's starwheel bottle indexing system positions each container beneath the filling funnel and coordinates bottle transfer with auger dosing. This reduces the requirement for compressed-air-driven bottle stopping within the specified indexing arrangement, while supporting sequential container handling for integrated packaging lines.
The powder metering system operates through a servo motor-driven auger screw, with a servo drive and PLC regulating the programmed screw rotation. A human-machine interface enables controlled operation, while a variable frequency drive adjusts conveyor movement. The equipment incorporates a No Bottle–No Fill arrangement to prevent unintended dosing in the absence of a bottle.
The specified filling range is 5 g to 1000 g, with a nominal output of 30 bottles per minute for 5 g and 10 g filling. A filling accuracy of approximately ±2% is specified, subject to powder characteristics, fill weight and machine speed. Actual performance should be established through powder trials and suitable auger and funnel selection.
The powder hopper has a stated 18-litre capacity. Powder-contact parts are manufactured using AISI 316L stainless steel, while the machine frame and body use AISI 304 stainless steel construction with a clad top-plate arrangement. The accessible design facilitates routine setup, cleaning and powder handling.
Designed for manufacturers requiring automated powder filling in bottles and jars, the equipment can be integrated with suitable upstream and downstream packaging operations. Technogen Enterprise manufactures, supplies and exports automatic auger fillers from Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India.

Applications
03
Operating Principle
The automatic single-head system combines starwheel bottle indexing with servo-controlled volumetric auger dosing to dispense powder into successive bottles.
Powder Feeding
Powder is supplied to the 18-litre hopper and presented to the auger and filling funnel. The filling-head assembly includes the specified stirring arrangement.
Bottle Infeed
Empty containers enter the filling station through the slat conveyor. The starwheel indexes individual bottles beneath the powder filling head.
Bottle-Presence Interlock
The No Bottle–No Fill arrangement prevents the machine from dispensing powder when the expected bottle is absent.
Servo Auger Dosing
The PLC and servo drive control the number of auger rotations. Powder is conveyed through the funnel into the positioned bottle.
Dose Cut-Off
The auger stops when the programmed dosing movement is complete. The powder discharge-control arrangement helps reduce residual powder release.
Bottle Discharge
The filled bottle leaves the station as the starwheel indexes the following bottle into position.
Changeover
The auger, funnel and programmed settings are selected according to powder characteristics and required fill weights. Filling performance is confirmed through trials.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the single-head auger filler operate?
It indexes bottles using a mechanical starwheel and fills them through a servo-controlled auger screw. PLC commands determine the dosing rotation.
What is the filling range and speed?
The machine is specified for 5 g to 1000 g and up to 30 bottles per minute for 5 g and 10 g doses, depending on powder properties.
Why is a starwheel used?
The starwheel positions and indexes containers beneath the filling head, reducing dependence on pneumatic bottle stoppers in the described machine arrangement.
Can it handle non-free-flowing powders?
A dedicated powder feeding system for non-free-flowing products is listed as an optional item. Its suitability must be evaluated for the powder.
Is audit trail functionality available?
An audit-trail-capable PLC-HMI arrangement is identified as an optional configuration. The electronic data and validation scope must be agreed for the application.
