Fully Automatic Bagger.

On the fully automatic bagger, (pictured here with a robot trolley loader) the containers enter an accumulation area and are collated into rows automatically. While this is happening, a bag is made to a pre-set length, cut and sealed and placed on a pair of clamp plates in front of the accumulation area. When a full pack of containers has been accumulated, it is transferred into the open bag and then the open end is closed, creating a hygienically sealed pack. The bag of containers is then ejected out of the machine and can be automatically stacked by an optional 2 or 3-position pallet stacker, Trolley Loader or diverted onto a roller conveyor for transportation to a central loading area.

Dual Infeed Gallon / 1/2 Gallon Bagger with 2 Position Stacker.

Multiple products can be easily managed with the introduction of a second accumulation table. This particular machine will normally accumulate gallon containers in the main area while the lesser run ½ gallons are accumulated on a second table to the side (as shown to the right in the above picture). Once a full pack of ½ gallons is complete, the machine holds the gallon containers from feeding, so that the ½ gallons can pass through the main accumulation area into the bag.

Ultimate Bagging Control.

Multiple containers can be run on one machine with adjustable change parts and the ‘flexi pack option’, which includes:

• Screw Jack Height Adjustment
• Hand Adjustable Clamp Plates
• Hand Adjustable Pushers and Stabilisers

The 10″ colour touch screen provides an intuitive graphical interface with built in help files for all settings. Alarm and event logs make fault tracking seamless and the 5 level user security system ensures only qualified personnel can access settings while still allowing operators to run the machine.

Furthermore, the use of built-in web-cams coupled with remote control-system-access enables ALS engineers full access to make system updates and fix issues from anywhere in the world, as well as observe in real-time an operative’s interactions with the machine, to help guide best-practice.

PET / PP Bagging
Bagging is not just for HDPE containers, PET or PP can be bagged just as easily. Using high slip bags and anti-static equipment the static associated with these types of containers does not cause any issues. Special ‘high slip’ change parts and guides are also used to ensure trouble free packing.

Semi Automatic Bagger.

The Semi-Automatic Bagger is a cost-effective method for bagging bottles. Designed for lower output blow moulds this machine is capable of bagging over 1 pack per minute.

One operator can run as many as 6 machines at a time (depending on machine output) allowing maximum use of available labour.

On a Semi-Automatic Bagger the bottles enter into an accumulation area and are collated into rows automatically. The operator is required to place a pre-made bag onto a loading station and tell the machine the bag is on. Once the machine has pushed the bottles into the bag, the operator is then required to press and hold 2 buttons to initiate a seal cycle, in order to close the open end of the bag; creating a hygienically sealed pack. The operator is then required to remove the bag from the loading table.

Manual Bagger.

The Manual Bagger is the cost-effective option for bagging bottles from lower output blow moulds, yet can bag up to 1 pack per minute. One operator can run as many as 4 machines at a time (depending on machine output) allowing maximum use of available labour. On a Manual Bagger the bottles enter into an accumulation area and are collated into rows automatically. The operator is required to place a pre-made bag onto a loading station and tell the machine the bag is on. Once the operator has pushed the bottles into the bag the operator is then required to press and hold 2 buttons to initiate a seal cycle, which will seal the open end of the bag. The operator is then required to remove the bag from the loading table.
