Bag Sewing Machines and Heat Sealers

These industrial bag sewing machines and heat sealers are used to sew shut, close, and seal open mouth bags at rates up to 20 bags per minute or more.
Bag sewing can be accomplished using a portable bag sewing head or with stationary automatic bag sewing machine that is attached to a stand, such as a feed bag sewing machine. Portable bag sewing machines can close and stitch shut 4 to 8 bags per minute and automatic bag sewing machines have stitching and closing rates from 6 to 20 bags per minute.

Bag heat sealers close and seal paper or plastic bags and pouches at rates up to 20 bags per minute. Paper bag heat sealers pinch the bottom of the multi-walled paper bags with a pre-glued flap and heat them until the glue reaches a melting point. Plastic bag heat sealers seal poly-based bags using a hot air or rotary band heat sealer to close the bags.

Lot code, batch number, and date printed on bottom part of bag after passing by print head on bag closing conveyor
This lot 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 lot code printer on a conveyor before robotic palletizing. As each bag passes the lot code printer, a lot code and date are printed on the bottom part of the bag. Each of these unique codes helps to identify the date when the batch of product was produced and packaged.

Learn more about coffee bag sealers that vacuum seal and flush bags and pouches with nitrogen or CO2.
Why is it important to vacuum seal coffee bags and flush them with nitrogen?
Vacuum sealing and flushing a bag with a gas like nitrogen removes most of the oxygen, making it difficult for aerobic bacteria to grow. This extends the shelf life and freshness of whole coffee beans and ground coffee. Many large grocery stores, retail coffee shops, or online retailers like Amazon, require that coffee producers use VGF/MAP for their packaging for resale. (VGF stand for Vacuum Gas Flush and MAP stands for Modified Atmosphere Packaging.)
