Quote checklist
Auger filler enquiry checklist for a better quote.
Prepare the product, pack, output and factory information needed to shortlist an auger filler accurately.
- Powders
- Fine, dusty, cohesive and free-flowing
- Formats
- Jars, bottles, tubs, pouches and bags
- Support
- Specification, supply and line integration
Specification-first planning
A clearer brief usually produces a better machinery shortlist.
The most useful enquiry explains the production problem, not just the machine name. Share the product, the finished pack, the output target, current bottleneck and any factory constraints so the options can be narrowed quickly.
Useful details to confirm
- Product name, behaviour, density and sample availability
- Fill weight or volume range and accuracy target
- Container, pouch or bag dimensions and samples
- Target output per minute or hour and shift pattern
- Footprint, power, air, access and existing equipment

FAQs
Common quotation questions.
Do I need product samples for an auger filler quote?
Photos and data help at the first stage, but samples are often important before final specification.
Should I include current production problems?
Yes. Explain whether the goal is higher output, less giveaway, lower labour, cleaner filling or better presentation.
What photos are useful?
Photos of the product, container or pouch, current filling method, closure, label area and production space can all help.
