Matrix Packaging Machinery, an Ohio-based manufacturer of packaging equipment, is now offering bagging machine for coffee, baking, confectionary and other similar firms.
The bagging has been introduced for firms which have a need to boost production, but have a limited floor place.
The new X machine will pack about 250 bags-per-minute, into the floor space typically required for a 45-inch wide bagger.
The machine features electronic servo motion control which provides greater accuracy and more precise changeover.
Matrix vice president and general manager Marc Willden remarked that production managers can bag the same product using the two augers and form-fill-seal units and also run different products at the same time.
A remote operator station equipped with a spot-check weighing system also increases weight consistency and based on test bags weighed at set intervals, control software automatically adjusts auger dose to meet package specifications.
