Automatic Bagging Machines

valve-bagging-machine-and-automatic-bag-placer-for-garnet

Automatic bagging machines and equipment greatly increase efficiency, bag filling capabilities, and palletizing rates. Almost any type of auto bagger machine and system can be designed for one or more operators using an existing packaging line or plant footprint. We have over 40 years' experience with automatic bagging machine and systems and can custom design a solution to meet your budget and processing requirements.

The first level of automation would be to add a bag tip and drop component to a valve bag filler machine. Then, make the system more automatic by adding a bag placer that automatically places an empty bag on the bag fill spout. Next, add a machine that includes a single or dual filling hopper that simultaneously fills while a bag or bags are being filled. The final level of automation would be to add a robot bag palletizer at the end of the line.

operator placing bags on valve bag filling machines

These valve bag filling machines are used to fill 50 Lb. paper valve bags with different types of high-quality silica sand.  After filling, bags are conveyed to an automatic palletizer that stacks the bags on a pallet.

This type of silica sand is a high-quality round and sub-round silica sand with mesh sizes ranging between 8×16 and 100.  It has many uses including:

  • turf sand used for infill to protect artificial turf and increase its life expectancy
  • roofing sand for specialty roofing tiles, flooring titles, and colored grout
  • building and industrial sands as an ideal base for construction, concrete, bricks, foundry, and flooring
  • water filtration sand used in wells, filters, and other water fixtures
  • glass sand for large quantity glass production
  • oil and gas hydraulic fracturing sand

Automated Rice Bagging Equipment for Rice Producer

View of Bagging Machine and High-Speed Bag Closer in an Automated Packaging System

Rice producers face several challenges when it comes to bagging and packaging their product. Manual bagging processes can be time-consuming, labor-intensive, and prone to errors. To overcome these challenges, a USA-based rice producer sought an automated packaging system that could increase production efficiency, reduce labor costs, and improve bagging accuracy. In this case study, we’ll examine how the company successfully implemented the system, resulting in significant time and cost savings.

robotic depalletizer and bag opening system for chemical powders

One of our manufacturers recently designed and implemented an automatic depalletizer and bag dump station for a customer in the chemical industry. The system involves a robot depalletizer that unstacks 50 lb. bags of chemical powders from a shipping pallet located to the left and right side of the robot.  The bags are picked up 3 at a time and placed 1 at a time on a conveyor that transports them to an inclined belt conveyor that discharges them into automatic bag dump station. In this article, we’ll provide an overview of the system, explain how the robot depalletizer system works using a vision system, and outline the features and benefits of the system.

code printer for lot batch numbers and codes on bags

Lot / batch code and date printed on bottom part of bag after passing print head

This inkjet code printer was put to the test in an animal feed and minerals packaging line. Multi-wall open mouth paper bags, filled with animal feed are sewn shut.  Then, they pass in front of the code printer on a conveyor before robotic palletizing. As each bag passes the code printer, a lot code and date are printed on the bottom part of the bag.  Each of these unique codes helps to identify when the batch of product was produced and packaged.

fanuc robot picking up 100 lb. bag of minerals using a bag gripper tool

End-of-line robot picking up 100 lb. bag of minerals using a bag gripper tool

A contract packaging company recently added an end-of-line robot to their existing valve bag filling system.  The new robotic palletizing system includes bag handling and robotic pick conveyors, a used Fanuc robotic arm that has been reconditioned with a bag gripper tool, and an automated pallet and slip sheet dispenser.

With the added palletizing automation, the entire system is now able to fill and stack 100 lb. paper valve bags at a rate of 10-12 bags/minute.  The company can also quickly swap out settings to fill and stack 50 lb. valve bags at a rate of 15-16 bags/minute.
