Vertical Form Fill Seal (VFFS) Machine Adjusters
Vertical Form Fill Seal (VFFS) machines are a mainstay of automated packaging lines, forming bags from roll-stock, filling them with product, and sealing them in one continuous motion. To ensure consistent packaging quality, VFFS systems require precise adjustments of sealing jaws, film guides, and tensioners.
Align Film. Set Seals. Keep Bags Moving.
Helix Linear Technologies supplies lead screws, miniature actuators, and linear motion systems that enable fine-tuned positioning of VFFS machine components. Our motion solutions help OEMs and packaging engineers align film paths, adjust sealing bar spacing, and control tension with high repeatability ensuring every bag is straight, sealed, and shelf-ready.
Engineered for reliability in high-speed production environments, Helix components also support hygienic design and washdown compatibility.
Key Benefits:
- Precision actuation for sealing bar alignment and film guide positioning
- Enhances package consistency and reduces film waste
- Compact components fit easily into multi-axis packaging systems
- Washdown-ready designs available for sanitary environments
Helix delivers the motion behind every perfectly filled, sealed, and formed bag to help your packaging lines stay fast, flexible, and flawless.
