Operation
The GX1000 Sack Placer has a robust construction and is made from stainless steel and aluminium.
It has a small bore vacuum
system that gives smooth, fast and reliable operation on a wide variety of
plastic, paper and woven poly sack materials.
A sack is lifted from the
pile at the rear of the sack placer and a slatted conveyor indexes and separates the bag,
taking it forward to a precise point, ready for opening.
This opening
point is controlled by an adjustable stop for accurate positioning. Two
sets of suction cups then open the bag allowing the swing arm blades to
enter and grip the bag. The sack placer swing arms then rotate the bag up to the sack clamp.
Control System
The GX-Series sack placer control system utilises the latest PLC technology and
incorporates a very user friendly operator interface (HMI Screen) which
has a clear display and powerful new features. Other features include
the ASI communication system, Modem option for remote diagnostics and
editing, visual fault display. Operation is through a combination of
electrical and pneumatic actuators.
Packing Speeds
Packing speeds depend on many factors such as weigher speed, filling
time, conveyor speed etc. Possible speeds for the GX-Series are 1000 sacks
per hour or over 15 bags per min. |
