Form-Fill-Seal (FFS) Machine Motion Systems
Form-Fill-Seal (FFS) machines are the backbone of modern packaging that forms pouches or bags, filling them with product, and sealing them in a single continuous motion. Precise, reliable movement is critical to ensure accurate film positioning, clean seals, and high throughput without compromising package quality.
Seal Smoothly. Align Perfectly. Package with Confidence.
Helix Linear Technologies supplies precision lead screws, ball screws, and linear actuators engineered to control the motion of sealing jaws, film advancement, and alignment systems in FFS machines. Our components enable smooth, high-speed actuation with the accuracy needed to reduce waste, improve line efficiency, and support a variety of packaging formats.
With custom options for travel length, load capacity, and environmental protection, Helix motion systems are ideal for OEMs building vertical, horizontal, or rotary FFS machines.
Key Benefits:
- Precision sealing jaw movement for consistent and strong seals
- Accurate film alignment and registration for reduced scrap rates
- Smooth, high-speed operation for continuous motion packaging lines
- Configurable to suit different package sizes, film types, and production speeds
Helix powers the motion behind perfectly sealed packages by helping brands deliver fresh, attractive, and reliable products every time.
