Liquid and Granule Packaging Machines: How to Choose the Right Filling System

Introduction

Selecting the right filling system for liquid and granule packaging requires understanding viscosity, particle size, and production volume. Industry data shows that automated filling systems achieve ±0.3ml accuracy for liquids and ±0.2g accuracy for granules, compared to ±5% and ±3% respectively for manual filling. This guide explains ZSYAN's 6 liquid and granule packaging machine models to help you make an informed purchasing decision.
