New packaging and palletizing line for feed mixtures

The line is able to fill and pallet 25-50 kg bags according to preset or user-created programs at an average capacity of 220 bags per hour.

A new fully automated packaging line for bagging of feed mixtures has been developed and manufactured at Cimbria HMD. Installation and commissioning took approximately 2 months. The new technology was handed over to Czech family company Hansa CB at the end of May 2019. 

The line is able to fill and pallet 25-50 kg bags according to preset or user-created programs at an average capacity of 220 bags per hour. The solution used for the transport of mixtures and then bags uses elements of standard screw conveyors and pendulum bucket elevators (the latter being modified for vertical transport of filled bags). 

Weighing and filling of mixtures is done by our standard VT50 scale with forced filling. The sewing of bags and their transport to the robot palletizer works in fully automated mode, including tag applicator.

Palletizing is performed by a FANUC industrial robot using a specially developed pick-up head that takes the bags from the roller conveyor and places them on a pallet. The pallets are exchanged manually using a hand-operated forklift truck.
