This Hardware Accessories Packaging Automation Solution is specifically designed for multi-component, small-part combination packaging, such as screws, nuts, wooden dowels, and plastic wall plugs.
By integrating multiple independent vibratory bowl feeders with a vertical packaging machine, the system enables automatic counting, synchronized feeding, combined dispensing, and continuous bagging.

The solution is widely used in hardware manufacturing, construction fasteners, DIY kits, retail assortments, and export packaging, helping customers improve efficiency, consistency, and production reliability.

System Configuration

Vertical Form Fill Seal (VFFS) Packaging Machine

• 4 Independent Vibratory Bowl Feeders

  • Screw feeding bowl

  • Wooden dowel feeding bowl

  • Fastening nut feeding bowl

  • Plastic wall plug feeding bowl

• Combined dispensing and synchronized discharge system
