Accuweigh/Budpak’s Melbourne branch is currently supplying a large bag Vertical Form/Fill/Seal (VFFS) machine to a Victorian oat mill.
The VFFS will be filling instant and rolled oats into 10kg & 25kg gusseted PE bags. The ESSE GI large bag VFFS machine will receive the pre-weighed oats from an integrated net weigher mounted overhead and then automatically forms the bags from a 1200mm wide roll of film.
This Large bag VFFS will also be fitted with a device to press the light density oats into the formed bag which is then sealed closed before being released onto a bag flattener ready to be palletised.
One of the standout features of the F1200 large bag VFFS machine is the hydraulic film reel lifting device that automatically lowers the empty film reel to ground level and automatically lifts and locks the new heavy film reel into operating position without requiring any manual effort or external lifting devices.
Accuweigh is the exclusive Australian agent for the ESSE GI range of VFFS machines and has branches in all mainland states providing complete after sales service and support.
The F1200 will be demonstrated on the Accuweigh/Budpak stand at BULKEX 2009 being held in Brisbane on the 4-6th August.
