Optimised filling technology by BEUMER

The intralogistics professional BEUMER has expanded its product portfolio with the rotating filling machine BEUMER fillpac R. This machine, designed for capacities of 300 to 6,000 bags per hour, can fill all types of valve bags. The complementary bag placing technology for all common bag types rounds out the product portfolio. The weight accuracy of the bags is guaranteed by a calibratable weighing unit.

Together with a special bag placer, the BEUMER fillpac R can fill even woven polypropylene bags. The three-position cylinder that regulates the coarse and fine flow is protected from dust, because it is positioned vertically and outside of the dirty area. The cylinder for bag discharging is also located in the dust-free zone above the filling spout. This solution minimises wear and tear on both cylinders and therefore ensures longer service life. BEUMER has also equipped the optimised filling machine with an automatic bag weight correcting device. This device automatically adjusts the weight of subsequent bags.

Almost all built-in components of the BEUMER fillpac R are freely available commercially. This reduces delivery times for spare parts and lowers capital costs for the user. Also, the system is designed so that it is easily accessible for maintenance. The generously dimensioned filling impeller reduces fill times and therefore increases throughput without impairing weight accuracy. The BEUMER system is also equipped with an ergonomic control panel. The improved human-machine interface concept makes work simple and intuitive.
