Current condition
Record the sample, temperature, time and supply condition for each observation. Note how the liquid is replenished and whether air, settling or separation changes its condition before it reaches the filling point.

Liquid Sachet Filling & Sealing Product Behaviour: Product and pack trial guide
How should liquid sachet filling & sealing product behaviour be investigated before specifying sachet liquid fillers?
In brief
Describe the liquid as it reaches the filling point: temperature, flow behaviour, particles, foaming and any settling or separation. A convenient room-temperature sample may not represent the liquid supplied during production.
Link each observation to the dose and film combination being considered. The process guide explains why dose delivery and contamination of the seal area need separate records.
On the production floor
Turn your production information into clearer decisions — Sachet Liquid Fillers
Plan sachet liquid fillers around your product, pack range, target output, cleaning needs and finished-pack checks. Discuss a practical line concept with Lancing using representative samples. Use this guide to resolve liquid sachet filling & sealing product behaviour before it limits the final system.

What to record
Liquid Sachet Filling & Sealing Product Behaviour: condition, range and effect on your process
Realistic range
Include the normal range of liquid conditions, minimum and maximum doses, supply replenishment and a representative pause. Compare conditions before and after a change rather than attributing every quantity variation to the dosing arrangement.
Effect on the system
Show which settings, safeguards, maintenance tasks, decisions or required outcomes are affected by changes in liquid sachet filling & sealing product behaviour.

Five questions about liquid sachet filling & sealing product behaviour for your application
- Who can confirm this information?Identify the person responsible for liquid sachet filling & sealing product behaviour in production, quality, engineering or operations.
- How representative is the sample?Include age, supplier, batch, environment and upstream process state where they affect sachet liquid fillers.
- What is the difficult condition?Include a representative liquid condition that produces foam, settling, strings or drips, if relevant to your product. Record its effect on delivery, cut-off and the seal area under an agreed trial method.
- How will you judge the result?Agree the method, repetitions, acceptable range, result record and the response if the observed result falls outside the agreed range.
- What else must be coordinated?Your final sachet liquid fillers scope must also account for cleaning, access and changeover method, finished-pack checks and reject handling, current regulations and the conditions at your site.
Connected details
Record what changes at the filling point
Condition at filling
Record temperature, elapsed time and supply condition when the sample reaches the filling point. Note foam, particles, settling or separation if present.
Behaviour in the actual pack
Run the intended film with the liquid and target dose. Look for splashes, strings or drips in the seal and label the affected packs.
Individual delivered quantity
Record the target and units, then keep individual readings as the hopper or supply is replenished. A single average can conceal changes during the run.
Start, steady running and pause
Mark when the test starts, reaches stable operation, pauses and restarts. Recover sample results against that sequence before attributing a variation to a filler setting.
Changing to the next liquid
Describe the change and cleaning sequence and record the condition of the first liquid delivered afterwards. Keep first-off packs distinct from settled production.
Evidence to send for review
Identify the batch, film and operating state for an acceptable pack and an affected pack. Record the observed fault separately from any suspected cause.
