A Budpak bagging system was recently commissioned for Cawte Industries at Murray Bridge in South Australia for filling bags with fertilizers. Accuweigh’s Port Adelaide branch supplied the Budpak bagging system to replace an existing bagger which had become unreliable in recent times.
The Budpak’s GB55 gross weight bagging machine is fed by product supplied from an overhead silo to allow bags to be filled at 10 bags per minute. Empty bags are manually clamped to the bagging machines bag clamping assembly which is suspended from beam load cells mounted on the rigid supporting frame.
A Rinstrum 5100 intelligent batching indicator is used to ensure correct bag weights are achieved by the bagging machine for a wide variety of products due to the automatic in-flight compensation which tracks finished bag weights and then makes minor adjustments to the preliminary weight cut-off point for subsequent bags. Accuweigh’s GB55 bagging machine is available in various configurations to suit a wide variety of materials, including:
Gravity Fed Bagging
Screw Fed Bagging
Vibratory Fed Bagging
Conveyor Fed Bagging
The Budpak GB55 Bagging Machine is fully Australian Made and can store up to 99 product memories for commonly used products to minimise operator input error. The product names are entered and recalled using full alpha-numeric characters rather than using number codes to represent real products. Full material usage reports are also available using these real names to accurately track the total weight of each product used and the number of bags filled by the bagger.
Accuweigh/Budpak is Australia’s largest industrial weigh/packaging company and has eight branches across all mainland states providing sales and service on all scales, bagging and filling equipment.
