These dual bulk bag fillers efficiently fill big bags with raw material such as sand, cement, bentonite, plastic pellets, fertilizer and more at a rate of 20-25 bags per hour. A single pallet is discharged from the pallet dispenser. A slip sheet dispenser then applies a slip sheet on top of the empty pallet before it is loaded in to the filling station. Bag filling starts with a push of a button and bag is filled to set target weight. Final product is conveyed to end of the line where a robotic forklift moves the bag to a warehouse for storage and shipping.
Gravity Flow Open Mouth Bagger used to fill fertilizer bags
A fertilizer bagging machine, such as the Gravity Flow Open Mouth Bagger, fills open mouth bags with dry, free-flowing and minimally dusty fertilizer granules at a rate up to 5-8 bags per minute (300-480 bags per hour). The bags most commonly used with this machine are an open top poly bag or a poly-lined paper bags. The bags are filled to a 50-pound target weight.
The volumetric auger bag filler with a high intensity densifier is used for filling bags with light weight fibrous materials such as linted cottonseed hulls, cedar fiber and synthetic fibers.
The CBE Model 730 Pressure Flow Air Valve Bagging Machine is used for bagging mineral powders, mortar mixes, or food products into valve bags with internal spouts. Types of powders can include cement powder, specialty chemical powders, bentonite, barite, sodium bicarbonate, limestone powder, and mortar mixes. This bagging machine can also be used for food products like flour and cake mixes.

The operator, or automated bag placer, spouts the valve bag onto the machine. Then, compressed air forces the powder material from a hopper above the bagging machine into the bag. When the valve bag is filled to a set weight, it drops away onto a take away conveyor.
A bag flattener conveyor is designed for flattening both filled valve bags and open mouth bags to make them more uniform in shape to stack on a shipping pallet. They are flattened as they move through two conveyors with the upper conveyor applying adjustable force to the top of the bag. Typically, the bag flattener also acts as an incline conveyor that elevates the bags to the inlet of a palletizing station.
Auger fillers convey golf course sand into 50 lb. valve bags at a rate of 1-5 bags per minute. They simultaneously fill and weigh the sand directly into the bags.
These types of valve bag filling machines are also used to fill bags with other types of powdery or small granular materials such as:
