What is the vertical FFS process?

Apr 23,2024 | Views: 202
The term "vertical FFS process" typically refers to a method used in the packaging industry, specifically in the context of form-fill-seal (FFS) machines. FFS machines are automated systems that form a package, fill it with a product, and then seal it, all in one continuous process.

In a vertical FFS process, the packaging material is fed vertically through the machine. The material is typically a roll of film or flexible packaging material. The machine forms the packaging by sealing the edges of the film to create a tube, fills the tube with the product (such as granules, powders, or liquids), and then seals the top of the package. This process is commonly used for packaging various products such as snacks, candies, grains, and powders.
