Find answers to common questions about automatic bagging machines

How do automatic bagging machines work?

Bagging machines are designed to automatically fill bags with bulk solid products like granules, powder, flakes, and pellets. Bags feed into the filler from a bag magazine. The machine opens them, fills them, and seals them, producing uniformly filled packages. These machines handle open-mouth bags for applications between small, 5 kg bags to jumbo, 80 kg bags. Bag machines integrate with palletizing equipment, including conveyors and accessories, to build pallets of uniformly filled bags for shipping and storage.

What are the benefits of using integrated, automatic bag machines?

Integrated bagging equipment maximizes throughput of bag filling in order to keep up with upstream equipment and downstream palletizing.

Converting from manual bag filling to automation:

  • Is a cost-effective solve for labor shortages, often delivering ROI in one year.
  • Reduces rates of injury from strenuous manual labor.
  • Frees employees to focus on other tasks.
  • Delivers reliable and consistent bag filling and sealing, allowing for better bag handling and quality control.
  • Results in a cleaner, more hygienic facility, reducing employee exposure to product dust

Can automatic bagging machines be customized to meet specific production needs?

Automatic open-mouth bagging machines have several configurations to allow for customized layout needs. Plus, every system is optimized to meet the specific production environment.
