SIMPLE AC – Bagging machines for preformed valve bags, suitable for fine and mixed powders and chips.
The bagging machine for medium production rates.
Particularly suitable for processing powder or chip products, for medium production rates, the SIMPLE AC bagging machine maintains rugged construction and minimal maintenance requirements.
Bag vibration with stroke variable from 1 to 8 mm, generated by a special eccentric mass.
Minimisation of dust deposit zones in accordance with the strictest health standards.
Bearings protected by a dustproofing device incorporating compressed air pressurisation circuit.
Dust extraction connection.
Adjustable-height bag cradle designed to enable filling of bags of variable size.
Technical data
Vibrating cradle
VIBRATING CRADLE
Bags are filled by a horizontal auger.
A vibrating cradle supports the bag during filling, compacting the product to reduce the pack size.
If required, full bags can be ejected automatically by automatic swivelling of the bag cradle.
The modular construction principles mean that two or more bagging machines can be combined in line to achieve high production rates (up to 1,200 bags per hour), while total automation is possible with application of the automatic empty bag feeder (FB model) or application of the ultrasound valve sealing system.
System engineering
SYSTEM ENGINEERING
In line with the PAGLIERANI philosophy which aims to design integrated systems for higher production efficiency, SIMPLE AC bagging machines can be combined with model NE net weight weighing units.
One or more bagging machines can be installed in-line depending on production requirements (diagram A).
The system is automated through combination with the model FB automatic empty bag feeder (diagram B).
General characteristics
GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS
VALVE SIZES
STANDARD
The SIMPLE AC model can be equipped with bagging spouts suitable for valves in the standard sizes 110 mm · 130 mm · 150 mm · 180 mm (with the same valve size).
SPECIAL
Spouts for special valve sizes (other than those listed above) are also available on request.
Technical details
TECHNICAL DETAILS
DUST EXTRACTION SHIELD
There is a dust extraction inlet mounted on the bagging spout, to collect the dust generated during filling operations.
BAGGING CYCLE AUTOMATIC START DEVICE
- The bagging cycle is activated automatically as soon as the bag is fitted on the spout.
- Bag presence sensor device (for connection to automatic empty bag feeder).
- The sensor disables filling if the bag is not fitted on the bagging spout correctly.
Optionals
OPTIONALS
SIZE CHANGE
Automatic cradle position adjustment
CRADLE WITH TWO POSITION SETTINGS (PNEUMATIC)
If the system only processes two bags of different heights, cradle height adjustment can be automatic, powered by a pneumatic piston.
CRADLE WITH MULTIPLE POSITION SETTINGS (HYDRAULIC)
If the system processes multiple bags (of different heights), the bag cradle can be equipped with a hydraulic cylinder for precise positioning at the height required (automatic cradle position change for the program selected).
TOP IN FRONT TURNING
Applied in case of manual bag feeding (maximum two bagging machines) or with automatic feeder.
In this case the turning device is completed with a pneumatic system which raises and lowers the cradle to enable:
- correct insertion of the empty bag inside the cradle;
- perfect opening of the bag bottom.
The filling cycle is activated; the bag is suspended so that the weight of the product opens its bottom.
BOTTOM-IN-FRONT TURNING
Applied in arrangements with three or more bagging machines in line, with manual empty bag feeding.
ULTRASOUND SEALING
SIMPLE AC bagging machines can be equipped with a bag valve sealing system (A) comprising an ultrasound sealer.
This fully automatic system is installed on the bagging machine and incorporates:
- the ultrasound sealing hammer (sonotrode) (B);
- the anvil (against which the sealing hammer acts);
- the electronic control unit for setting the ultrasound power and duration;
- the pusher for extracting the full bag and placing it in the sealing/removal zone.
