Overview

The all new GEA Avapac RBF1200LI bag filling system sets a new benchmark in automated powder packing and bag handling.

Reliable bag filling and closing, combined with an automated pallet de-stacking system has resulted in a 50lb bag packing system which virtually eliminates the need for an operator inside the packing room.

Starting at the optional fully automated pallet de-stacking system, bags are delivered to the RBF1200Li and loaded onto the filling head ready for filling and closing.

Eight independently controlled bag stations are combined into a carousel to perform bag filling, preparation and closing whilst the bag is fully held ensuring fault free operation and thereby maximizing throughput of the bag packing plant.

Well proven GEA Avapac bag sealing and closing technology has been integrated into the filling system to provide a very compact operation which significantly reduces the space required for production.

A wireless connected operator panel can be used to monitor the packing process from a central location - which was previously only possible for large automated processing plants.

Optional Ethernet connectivity enables both local and remote monitoring and data analysis using the customer SCADA system.
