Dried Fruits Packaging Machine
Package raisins, dates, prunes, banana chips, dried mango, and mixed fruit with a system designed around how your product actually behaves—not just the bag size you need. Smart Weigh combines application-specific weighing systems with VFFS machines, premade pouch packing machines, and container filling equipment to help improve weight control, reduce product buildup, and protect fragile pieces throughout the packing process. Anti-stick weighing designs are available for sticky products such as raisins, dates, and prunes, while gentle product handling helps reduce breakage when packing banana chips and freeze-dried fruit. Whether you pack a single dried fruit product or a controlled mix of several ingredients, we can configure a solution to match your required package format, target weight, and production output.

Built Around the Way Dried Fruit Behaves
Dried fruit may look simple to pack, but different textures, shapes, and surface conditions can make a standard weighing system unreliable. The right setup needs to handle sticky products, protect delicate pieces, and keep every bag within target weight.
Sticky Fruit Buildup and Unstable Feeding
Raisins, chopped dates, cranberries, and prunes can stick to hopper surfaces or bridge at discharge points, especially in warm or humid conditions. On a standard weigher, that buildup can interrupt product flow, slow down the line, and create inconsistent bag weights. Smart Weigh can configure anti-stick contact surfaces, optimized hopper angles, and controlled vibration settings to keep product moving more smoothly. This helps maintain stable feeding and reduces the need for frequent manual cleaning.
Breakage of Banana Chips and Freeze-Dried Pieces
Banana chips, apple slices, and freeze-dried fruit can break easily when they fall too far or move through aggressive feeding systems. Excess breakage creates powder and small fragments, which can affect product appearance, increase giveaway, and contaminate the bag seal area. For fragile dried fruit, Smart Weigh uses gentle-handling weighing designs with reduced drop distances, smoother product paths, and discharge settings matched to the product. The goal is to move the product efficiently without turning premium pieces into crumbs.
Weight Variation Caused by Different Piece Sizes
Dried mango strips, whole dates, sliced fruit, and mixed pieces do not flow as evenly as small granules. A standard volumetric filler may deliver inconsistent portions, while a poorly matched weigher may struggle to build accurate combinations at the required speed. Smart Weigh uses multihead or linear weighing systems selected around the product size, target weight, and output requirement. The system weighs each portion before discharge, helping reduce underweight packs and unnecessary overfill.
Ratio Control for Mixed Dried Fruit
Trail mixes and premium dried fruit blends often contain ingredients with very different sizes, densities, and values. Without controlled feeding and weighing, one ingredient may dominate the mix while another is underrepresented. That can affect product consistency and make every bag look different on the shelf. Smart Weigh mixture weighing systems can allocate separate weighing sections to different ingredients, then combine them into one finished portion. This gives processors better control over ingredient ratios while still supporting automated pouch, bag, or container filling.
