Our Company

About APM

Quality. Performance. Engineered.

A UK company with over 20 years manufacturing experience in the industry APM know how to deliver cost effective solutions to match customer’s needs. From basic mechanical conveyors, bins, silos and shakers through to fully automatic sack filling and palletising solutions utilising the latest technology, they are all designed by our team of our in-house designers and built and serviced by our engineering team.

In 2025 APM became part of the Autopak group, a packaging machine group with manufacturing sites through out the UK and Spain. The company has chosen to focus and invest in bulk handling and sack solutions and has developed a range for virtually any industry or application from semi to fully automatic systems.

The Autopack philosophy matches that of APM in that our customers will only return if offered high quality equipment and excellent after sales service.

This simple philosophy combined with investment in training and development enables APM to offer bulk handling, sack filling and palletisation systems that run for years and years.

Our Machines

We manufacture and supply complete automation equipment.

We have a range of machines to pack virtually any product. Our impeller packer will pack extremely fine powders and our shako machine will pack heavy wet materials. Filling is either by weight or volumetric. When using weight we use electronic load cells with a microprocessor weigh controller.

This works on a course feed and fine feed to give extremely accurate weighing. When using volumetric, this is achieved using a vertical auger that is servo driven to give extremely consistent results.

Within our range we can offer a valve sack placer (either conventional or robotic), open top bag placer, ultrasonic sealing (either automatic or semi automatic), auto valve sack tip, open top bag complete control, conveyor systems and robotic palletising.
