More bags for your buck
Customer demand for faster, more-versatile bulk bagging has inspired Pacepacker Services to launch a new high-speed bagging line called FastPac. The first in this range, an upgraded sack placer, is already available and is set to boost the number of bags packed per minute by up to 20%, offering a new top speed of 16-17 bpm.
The unit can also handle an unprecedented variety of sacks, including those made from difficult-to-pick-up materials such as hessian and net. This follows a growth in demand for these bags, in particular from its European customers and UK exporters packing bags of produce, pulses, rice and coffee beans in bags weighing 25kg and over.
Pacepacker Services is also upgrading other bagging steps from its portfolio to optimise the overall speed of FastPac lines. For instance, the company can already offer an upgraded Total Bag Control (TBC) system to match the faster speed of the enhanced sack placers.
