SAN RAFAEL, Calif., Aug. 06, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PAC Machinery, a leader in the heat sealing and flexible packaging industry, announced today that it has unveiled the latest version of its industry-leading Rollbag™ R1275 Automatic Bagger. This innovative, compact automatic bagger features new productivity enhancements and can both increase production rates and simplify user interaction. The R1275 automatic bagger is manufactured in the US by Clamco, a PAC Machinery company.
Unique bagger features focus on productivity
The Rollbag R1275 Automatic Bagger is now available with a suite of features and options that can greatly increase bagging speed as well as improve bagging performance. The compact, low profile seal flattening fingers have been redesigned and improved for better performance. A new, optional, bag opener stretches the bag to an opening size and shape to facilitate improved filling. The result is more consistent filling and sealing – especially for larger products. The new bag profiler option helps maintain the bag shape by keeping it flatter as the bag fills, thus preventing bulk materials from distorting bag. “Our industry-leading R1275 automatic bagger has been enhanced to utilize a number of key productivity options,” says Mr. Gregory Berguig, V.P. Sales & Marketing at San Rafael, CA-based PAC Machinery. “The new bag opener, seal flattener and bag profiler work to increase bagging speed and improve package appearance,” continued Berguig.
Perhaps the most significant improvement is the new infeed funnel mounting system. The funnel mount features a robust design that is more adaptable in terms of accommodating a wide variety of automatic feeding devices. The sturdy system makes funnel changes easier and faster to achieve. Software improvements streamline the operator interface making the automatic bagger easier still to operate. For extra versatility, this enhanced automatic bagger can be used with scales, counters (including an advanced vision counting system for small products) and other feeding devices including the Clamco Kit Conveyor. An improved, servo-driven kit conveyor has been developed by Clamco – along side the R1275 automatic bagger – and is now available. With an emphasis on integration and automation, the Rollbag R1275 automatic bagger is engineered to connect with robotics and other devices. An optional thermal printer enables the printing of graphics, bar codes, date codes, and text. The compact Rollbag R1275 automatic bagger delivers exceptional value, speed, and flexibility for poly bags up to 10” wide by up to 20” deep. Using Rollbag brand pre-opened bags on a roll, the R1275 automatic bagger can pack products in poly bags at a rate of up to 60 bags per minute.
