Spee-Dee Packaging Equipment 3500S Auger Filler

Spee-Dee 3500S Digitronic Servo Auger Filler is a high-precision dry powder filler designed for inline packaging lines. A servo motor is mounted directly to the auger tooling, providing accurate metering with reduced wear parts and enhanced fill accuracy. The unit uses a PLC-based control with a color touchscreen interface for easy parameter setup, including the number of auger revolutions, fill speed, acceleration, and agitator speed and mode (many configurations feature a 6-inch, two-color touchscreen). The Digitronic family includes a standard memory for product profiles (around 100 profiles in common configurations) to speed changeovers between powders. A patented sliding key tooling lock simplifies tool changes while maintaining sanitary conditions. The 3500S is built in stainless steel and is designed for integration with form-fill-seal equipment and inline conveyors, enabling fills for pouches, bags, or cups on VF/F/S lines; industry literature and reseller listings demonstrate its use in such configurations. Spee-Dee emphasizes high-torque, direct-drive servo control to maximize accuracy and minimize maintenance compared with traditional clutch/brake systems.
