BEUMER bag placer for valve bottom bags and flat valve bags

In order to increase the performance and efficiency of the BEUMER fillpac, BEUMER Group has developed the BEUMER bag placer for valve bottom bags and flat valve bags.

With its standardised modular design, the bag placer provides numerous set-up options. The user can set it up at any angle by adding an optional turntable for example. This reduces the required floor space considerably. The system is equipped with an ergonomic control terminal. The improved human machine interface concept makes controlling the bag placer easy and intuitive. It can also automatically adjust to different valve bag formats.

The drive unit and the gripping arm are driven automatically by servomotors, ensuring precise positioning and energy efficiency. The drive technology used in combination with the electric coupling of both servo drives of the gripping arm and the application unit minimises the number of necessary mechanical components. The kinematics also reduce the vibration of the machine, increasing its service life.

The operator can use this version for PP, PE and paper valve bottom bags. Bag lengths of 350–650 mm and bag widths of 230–550 mm are possible as well as valve widths of 80–160 mm. The system can handle 3000 bags/h; the high-capacity version up to 6000 bags.

In order to considerably reduce its footprint, the bag placer can be set up at an angle of up to 60° by using the optional turntable. The product is used for woven PP and PE bags with lengths of 600–800 mm, widths of 400–550 mm and valve widths of 125–150 mm. Its capacity is up to 2400 bags/h.
