Bag Handling Conveyor

What is an Industrial Bag Handling Conveyor System?

An industrial bag conveyor system is machinery which moves packages, products, supplies, parts, and equipment for production, shipping, or relocation. The type of bag handling system deployed in a production environment depends on a number of variables. These include bag weight and dimensions and what it will take to move the product or material.

Why Use Automated Bag Conveyors?

Automated bag conveyors are considered the industry standard to increase productivity and convenience in a bagging production line. They load and unload bags, move them between different heights, and send them anywhere all with full speed control. This level of flexibility greatly reduces the risk of breakage or handling problems. All CBE bag handling conveyors are built with rugged, powder-coated, 6” structural c-channel steel frames. They are designed and constructed for the most demanding industrial environments.

INDUSTRIAL BAG HANDLING CONVEYOR SYSTEMS

Our bag conveyor systems perform many actions supporting the bagging process including tipping, flipping, turning, straightening, and flattening. They can also check-weight, print, label, and transport filled bags. In short, everything needed from bag filling to palletizing. Additionally, we provide world-class conveyors for bag transfer, incline, closing, v-through, and reject. Lastly, we offer bag kickers and weighers.

  2. Bag Incline & Transport Conveyor
  3. Incline Bag Flattener Conveyors
  4. Bag Turner Conveyors
  5. Bag Closing Conveyor
  6. Bag Turning & Knockdown Conveyor / Stackers

1) Bag Transfer Conveyors

Bag Transfer Conveyors are designed to turn bags 90 degrees transferring them from upstream to downstream conveyors. They work well in any situation where the conveying line and filled bags require an abrupt change in direction.

2) Bag Incline & Transport Conveyor

Bag Incline & Transport Conveyor facilitates easy bag elevation changes. It can also move full bags from filling stations to a bag palletizing area or system

3) Incline Bag Flattener Conveyors

The Incline Bag Flattener Conveyor removes excess air from bagged products providing superior bag shape and uniformity. This improves the appearance of a loaded pallet and also makes it more stable during transport. In addition, we designed this equipment for quick and easy bag thickness adjustments. The top belt is not fixed to the lower conveyor allowing maximum bag shaping flexibility.

4) Bag Turner Conveyors

The 305 Series Bag Turner Conveyor lays down and corrects the orientation of open mouth bags. It performs this action in-line as bags are fed upright from a bag closing conveyor. Setting bags in a horizontal position makes them ready for downstream conveyors and systems for flattening, weight check, and palletizing.

5) Bag Closing Conveyor

HA 4.0 Bag Closing Conveyor receives upright, filled (unclosed) open mouth bags for presentation to a closing system. It includes an adjustable bag stabilizing rail. This are compatible with closing equipment for paper, poly, and poly-woven bags.

6) Bag Turning & Knockdown Conveyor / Stackers

DESCRIPTION OF KNOCKDOWN CONVEYOR

The purpose of this conveyor is to receive bags standing up, knock the bags down and turn the bags so that they are laying on either the front or back side and exit the conveyor bottom first. This type of conveyor is used for feeding flattening conveyors, miscellaneous printing systems or whenever the position of the bag is critical prior to palletizing.

COMPONENTS

The system consists of a single belt 42”long x 24”wide. This belt is smooth top design to allow bag to easily slide over belt surface. The belt operates at 60 ft. per minute speed. If this speed is not adequate for the speed of your operation, the belt speed can be increased by changing sprockets. The speed, however, should not be reduced below 60 ft. per minute.

  1. Knockdown Arm
    This arm is to push the bag onto the knock down plate. This is accomplished by holding the top one half of the bag stationary while the conveyor pulls the bottom of the bag.

  2. Knockdown Plate
    This plate is to receive bags from either the front or back side.

  3. Turning Wheel
    This wheel is located at the discharge end of the knockdown plate.
