10-200kg precision bag&drum filling machinery

Industrial powder&granule bag and drum filling systems (10-200kg capacity)

Engineered for Challenging Materials & Medium-Scale Packaging.

LOCUS ROBOTICS bag & drum fillers specialize in accurate dosing of powders and granules into 25-50kg sacks — distinct from our FIBC systems for larger bulk bags. Ideal for difficult-to-handle powders:

• Fine, dusty powders (≤50µm)

• Abrasive materials (silica, minerals)

• Aggressive chemicals (chlorinated compounds)

• Construction materials (cement, dry mixes)

• Construction materials (cement, dry mixes)

• Agricultural products (fertilizers, animal feed)

• Industrial chemicals (polymers, detergents)

• Food ingredients (flour, sugar, starch)

Exclusive Focus: Systems designed specifically for bag/drum filling — distinct from our FIBC and small-bag equipment.
