Compare pouch packing machines by product handling
Start with how the product enters the pouch: a measured dose on a vertical form fill seal machine, or individual placement on a horizontal form fill seal machine. Then compare the package drawing, feeding method and production requirements.
| Machine | Process | What to compare |
|---|---|---|
| MTVP160 | Vertical form-fill-seal | Sachets and unit doses; review dosing, pouch drawing and lane arrangement. |
| MTVP200 | Vertical form-fill-seal | Compare format and multi-lane requirements with MTVP160; confirm the usable layout. |
| MTHP150 | Horizontal form-fill-seal | Patches, devices and other placed products; review loading, orientation and selected feeding options. |

Mactec designs and builds vertical and horizontal form-fill-seal pouch packing machines in the USA. Compare a vertical pouch filling machine for liquids, powders, tablets, and capsules with a horizontal pouch packaging machine for patches, medical devices, and other placed products — each configured to your product and package.
Choose the right pouch packing machine for your product
Start with how your product needs to be filled or placed in the pouch. MTVP160 and MTVP200 offer vertical form-fill-seal configurations for measured fills. MTHP150 provides horizontal packaging for products that require controlled placement. Compare the models below, or tell us about your application and we will help you choose.
MTVP160 Vertical Form-Fill-Seal Pouch Machine

- Configured filling for liquids, powders, tablets, or capsules.
- Four-sided seals, with perforating and cutting to suit the package.
- Multi-lane configurations, subject to pouch size and filling requirements.
- Preprinted-film registration and product coding can be included in the configuration.

MTVP200 Vertical Pouch Packing Machine (Wider Web)
A vertical form-fill-seal platform for wider formats and additional lane options. The MTVP200 uses the same form-fill-seal approach as the MTVP160, with a larger web format. It is a candidate when your pouch dimensions or proposed lane arrangement require more room.
- Configured filling for liquids, powders, tablets, or capsules.
- Four-sided seals, perforating, and cutting.
- Web widths up to 200 mm; usable pouch size and lane count depend on the package layout.

Planning your pouch packaging project
You do not need a finished equipment specification to start a conversation. Tell us what you want to package and we will help identify a suitable machine and configuration.
What are you packaging?
Share the product type and the amount in each pouch. For patches or devices, tell us the product dimensions and how it needs to be handled.
What should the finished pouch look like?
A sample, sketch, or package drawing helps us review pouch size, material, and seal layout. If those details are not decided, tell us what you know so far.
What does your production run require?
Tell us your target output, batch sizes, available space, and how often you expect to change products or pouch sizes. These details help us discuss filling, tooling, and loading options.
