MACHINE OVERVIEW
WHEN MULTIPLE SMALL PACKS NEED TO RUN IN PARALLEL
What Is a Multi-Lane Packing Machine?
A multi-lane packing machine forms, fills and seals multiple sachets or stick packs during each production cycle. Instead of producing one pack at a time, it divides wide rollstock film into several synchronized lanes to meet higher output requirements for repeatable small-format packaging.
MULTIPLE PACKS FROM ONE MACHINE PLATFORM
Built for Parallel Small-Format Packaging
Multi-lane packaging is suitable when a single-lane machine cannot reasonably meet the required total output. Film handling, lane quantity, pack format and filling arrangement are configured together around the product, finished package and production target.
This machine category includes dedicated multi-lane sachet machines and dedicated multi-lane stick pack machines. The two platforms use different forming structures, so machine selection begins with the required finished pack format.
PROJECT FIT & MACHINE ROUTE
Find the Right Multi-Lane Route for Your Project
First confirm whether parallel production fits your output requirement, then select the machine platform from the finished pack format.
-
OUTPUT
Higher Total OutputYour required total output is higher than a single-lane machine can provide.
-
FORMAT
Repeated Small PacksYou need to produce the same small sachet or stick pack in larger quantities.
-
WORKFLOW
Coordinated ProductionYou prefer one coordinated multi-lane platform instead of operating several separate single-lane machines.
-
PROJECT
Defined Project RequirementsYour pack format, dimensions, filling requirement and production target have been clearly defined.
CHOOSE BY FINISHED PACK FORMAT
Multi-Lane Sachet Machines
Choose this platform for three-side-seal sachets, four-side-seal sachets or shaped sachets. The required sachet format determines the forming, sealing and cutting configuration.
Multi-Lane Stick Pack Machines
Choose this platform for narrow tubular stick packs. Each film strip is guided around its corresponding forming tube before filling and sealing.
SUPPORTED PACK FORMATS
CONFIGURED AROUND THE FINISHED PACKAGE
Sachet and Stick Pack Formats for Multi-Lane Packaging
Multi-lane packing machines can be configured for sachets or stick packs made from rollstock film. The required pack format determines the machine platform, forming structure, sealing arrangement and cutting configuration.
NARROW TUBULAR PACK
Stick Pack
Each slit film strip is guided around its corresponding forming tube before filling and sealing.
FOLDED-WEB SACHET
Three-Side-Seal Sachet
A single film web is folded to create one closed side, while the remaining three sides are sealed.
TWO-WEB SACHET
Four-Side-Seal Sachet
Two film layers form the front and back of the sachet, with sealing around all four sides.
DEFINED DIE-CUT PROFILE
Shaped Sachet
Die-cut tooling creates a confirmed sachet outline beyond a standard rectangular format.
CUTTING & OPENING OPTIONS
Select the Cutting Detail for the Finished Pack
These cutting details are reference examples. The final edge and opening design can be customized to the pack format and project requirements, subject to the confirmed machine configuration.
Zigzag Cut
A serrated cutting profile across the pack edge.
Straight Cut
A clean, level edge for a standard finished appearance.
Rounded-Corner Cut
Rounded outer corners create a softer pack profile.
Die-Cut Shape
A shaped cutting profile made for the confirmed pack geometry.
Tear Notch
A defined notch that provides an opening point.

FOR GRANULAR PRODUCTS
Volumetric Dosing System
- Common direction
- Volume-based dosing for free-flowing powders and small granular products.
- Product supply
- Manual loading, screw feeding or vacuum conveying can feed the dosing section.

PACKING PROCESS
FROM WIDE ROLLSTOCK FILM TO FINISHED SMALL PACKS
Multi-Lane Packing Process and Optional Functions
A multi-lane packing machine divides wide rollstock film into the configured lanes, forms multiple sachets or stick packs, fills each lane through its corresponding dosing channel, then seals, cuts and discharges the finished packs.
PRIMARY PACKING PROCESS
How a Multi-Lane Packing Machine Works
Film control, pack forming, dosing and sealing are configured as one synchronized system. The sachet and stick pack platforms use different forming structures.- FILM SUPPLYFilm Unwinding
Wide rollstock film is supplied to the machine.
- POSITION CONTROLWeb Guiding
Automatic web guiding maintains film alignment. Printed film can use registration-mark tracking.
- LANE PREPARATIONSlitting & Distribution
The film is slit and directed into the fixed number of configured lanes.
- PACK FORMATPack Forming
Sachets use the confirmed folded-web or two-web structure; each stick-pack strip passes around its corresponding forming tube.
- PRODUCT DELIVERYDosing & Filling
Each lane has its own dosing mechanism and corresponding filling channel, with all lanes operating in synchronization.
- PACK CLOSURESealing
The sealing arrangement is configured for the confirmed sachet or stick-pack format.
- FINISHED PACKCutting & Discharge
The packs are cut to the set length and discharged by the method selected for the project.

* Reference speed is 20–40 cycles/min, equivalent to approximately 20–40 finished packs per minute from each active lane. Total machine output depends on the number of active lanes; actual output also varies with the product, bag dimensions, filling system and packaging material.
Specifications are reference values. The final model, lane quantity and bag-size range are confirmed according to the actual packaging project.

TECHNICAL FAQ
BUYER QUESTIONS, ANSWERED
Multi-Lane Packing Machine FAQs
Practical answers about suitable products, model selection, lane quantity, packing speed, filling accuracy, rollstock film, line integration and after-sales support.
What Products Can a Multi-Lane Packing Machine Pack?
A multi-lane packing machine can be configured for powders, free-flowing granules, liquids and semi-liquids packed in small sachets or stick packs. The suitable filling system, pack format and machine configuration are selected according to product flow, target dose, bag dimensions and the required finished pack.
How Do I Choose the Right Multi-Lane Packing Machine Model?
Start with the finished pack format and required bag width and length. Then confirm the product, filling method, lane quantity and target output. The specification table provides reference ranges, while the final model is selected for the product and package that will actually run.
Compare Multi-Lane Machine Models →How Is the Required Number of Lanes Determined?
The required lane quantity is determined from the target output, finished bag width, available film width and the selected dosing system. Reference configurations range from 2 to 16 lanes, but the usable number of lanes must be confirmed for the actual product, bag size and machine platform.
What Packing Speed Can a Multi-Lane Machine Achieve?
The reference speed is 20–40 cycles per minute, equivalent to approximately 20–40 finished packs per minute from each active lane. Total machine output depends on the number of active lanes. Actual output also varies with the product characteristics, target dose, bag dimensions, filling system, packaging film and required sealing result.
How Is Filling Accuracy Managed Across Multiple Lanes?
Each active lane has its own corresponding dosing channel, while all lanes operate as one synchronized system. Filling accuracy depends on the selected dosing method, product consistency, flow behaviour and target dose. The expected tolerance must therefore be confirmed for the actual product and filling configuration.
What Rollstock Film Is Required for a Multi-Lane Stick Pack or Sachet Machine?
The machine uses rollstock film selected for the required forming and heat-sealing process. Film width is determined by the pack format, finished bag width, seal allowance and lane quantity. The film structure, thickness, sealing layer, roll dimensions and registration marks should be confirmed from the actual film specification.
Can the Machine Connect to Counting, Cartoning or Secondary Packaging Equipment?
Yes. Finished sachets or stick packs can be transferred to suitable sorting and counting equipment, a cartoning machine or a premade pouch machine for packing small packs into a larger pouch. Online checkweighing with rejection and project-specific discharge handling can also be included in the line plan.
Review Process and Line Integration →What Warranty and After-Sales Support Are Available?
The machine is covered by a 12-month warranty from the date it is received. A one-year spare-parts package is supplied according to the confirmed machine configuration. Remote technical support is available, and paid on-site installation and commissioning services can be arranged when required.
