Fully Automated Bagging Lines

Active Weighing Solutions fully automated Bagging Lines are custom engineered to suit each bag filling, closing and palletising application. Through design specification, 3D CAD modelling, manufacture, factory testing, installation, and commissioning, we work with you to engineer the best solution for your bagging line application. We consider:

• weighing accuracy needed,
• bagging rate specification,
• bag variety and physical properties
• inherent characteristics of the bulk material being bagged
• operations safety,
• labour and workflows,
• budget, and
• integration with existing plant and available space

Our engineers have the knowledge and depth of experience to design automated bagging lines – from simple systems through to fully automated systems with robotic palletising. We will work with you to implement the bagging solution that meets your production need.

Bulk Material Feed Device for Weighing and Bagging

Selecting the best feed device for an application depends greatly on the characteristics and material handling properties of the product to be bagged. The best options are also subject to bagging rate and weighment accuracy specifications. The feed and weighing method is selected to deliver the highest bag filling accuracy for the bulk material being handled. The range of feed options includes:

• gravity fed
• single screw fed
• twin screw fed
• vibratory fed
• belt fed

All feed options are designed and manufactured by Active Weighing Solutions. These devices deliver materials typically to a Net Weigher.

Net Weighers

Net Weighers reliably deliver the most accurate weighing solution for most free-flowing bulk materials. An Active Weighing Solutions Net Weigher is sized to suit the bulk material and the anticipated bag filling weighment rate. For higher speed bagging rates and very high filling accuracy, an Active Weighing Solutions Duplex Net Weigher provides a reliable outcome. Accuracy Accuracy ± 20 grams – depending upon the bulk material and flow characteristics

Automatic Bagging Machine

Australian designed and built, the GR900-15 Automatic Bagging Machine brings the best features of any comparable imported machine, with the added benefit of local maintenance expertise and locally sourced consumables and maintenance spares. Designed for continuous operation and up to 15 bags per minute bagging rate, this machine requires very little operator oversight. The GR900-15 bagging machine will reliably pick, place, fill and close a wide range of bag types and sizes. It will implement self-recovery actions if an issue in picking and placing occurs. The bagging rate is pre-programmed and bagging targets can be reliably met while workers attend to other tasks. Features:

• High capacity bag storage carousel
  • Standard carousel holds up to 900 bags

• Safe operator access to recharge bag magazines without interrupting production
• Easy change over for a range of bag widths and lengths

• Intuitive graphic touch screen for the operator to:
  • Set weighment set point
  • Set bagging rate
  • Set required batch run
  • Start, stop, run and troubleshoot

• High-reliability bag picking and placing
  • Handles even low friction co-efficient (smooth) bags
  • Self-recovery actions if a bag doesn’t pick or place correctly
  • Sensors to ensure no product spillage

• Bag gusset retention
  • Holds bag manufacturers gusset throughout placing, filling and closing operations, ensuring perfect closure and bag presentation

• Unique traction drive system holds filled bags securely
  • Bag guides not required.
  • Operators have clear access to remove a bag if needed.

• Accommodates integrated bag sewing and heat sealing

Options:

• Bag sewing with thread break detection
• Vision System to detect poorly sewn or closed bagging problems
• Bag air expel to assist in bag conditioning for palletising
