Simplifying and reducing bag filling
times, Flexicon Europe has developed
a new Bulk Bag Filling Line that
provides an efficient system for
automating bag fill and palletisation
in preparation for fork truck transfer
of material to a downstream process
or final packing in readiness for
onward shipment to another plant.

The Flexicon system incorporates a
dispenser which holds up to 15 pallets
and a powered roller conveyor that
removes the bottom-most pallet and
positions it directly beneath the
cantilevered fill head of the bulk bag
filler. At the fill station an operator
connects an empty bag to the four
actuated bag strap hooks, seals the
bag spout using an inflatable collar
and presses a bag inflation button to
initiate a seven-step automated
filling sequence.
