The new Autobag 600 and Autobag 650 wide bagging systems are said to accommodate various Autobag bags-on-a-roll and bags-in-a-box material up to 16in wide by 27 inches long.
Autobag 600 is a semi-automatic filling and sealing machine, which has been developed for packaging large products at speeds up to 65 bags per minute.
Autobag 600 can be configured for left- or right-hand access to the HMI, cycle switch and bag loading area, enabling to improve ergonomics and operator productivity.
The advanced engineering design of the system enables to avoid the use of light curtains or double-palm switches, and the adjustable six inch pass-through enables faster and more efficient cycle times.
Autobag 650 is the same wide bagging system with a fully-integrated next-bag-out printer which avoids the use of a separate labeling operation.
The bagging system can be used in mail order ecommerce, prescription-by-mail, catalog order fulfillment, and frequent changeover, variable data applications.
Autobag 650 system holds capacity to print and pack at speeds up to 40 bags per minute.
The system can be configured for left- or right-hand access to the HMI, cycle switch, and ribbon and bag loading areas.
Both baggers are provided with an AutoTouch control screen, which offers rapid and easy access to job storage and recall, on-board diagnostics and productivity monitoring.
The baggers can be networked for full pack station integration and central monitoring, and features an open design with fewer moving parts for longer life and ease of maintenance.
In addition, the systems can be easily incorporated with Autobag and third-party equipment for fully automatic bag packaging operations.
Automated Packaging Systems is engaged in the designing and manufacturing of Autobag®, AirPouch and SidePouch systems.
The firm’s product portfolio is comprised of baggers, void-fill and protective packaging systems, stretch sleeve labels, thermal transfer imprinters, counters, scales, and specialty packaging materials.
