Ohlson - VFFS Bagger

• Packaging of snacks, confectionery, and dry goods into bags.
• Automated bagging of frozen foods, produce, and bakery items.
• Efficient packaging of powders, granules, and small components.
• Used in food processing, pharmaceutical, and general manufacturing industries.

Typical capacity

For this class of VFFS machine, throughput typically ranges from 30 to 120 bags per minute, depending on product, film, and bag size.

Power supply

Commonly requires a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, with an associated compressed air supply.

Bag dimensions

Units of this type are typically configured for a range of bag widths and lengths, determined by the former and sealing jaw setup.

Film compatibility

Generally compatible with various heat-sealable films, including printed and unprinted laminates, polyethylene, and polypropylene.

Control system

Modern VFFS machines, such as those with Allen Bradley PLCs and touchscreen controls, offer precise control over sealing, film tension, and product filling.

Footprint

The overall footprint for a VFFS bagger with an outfeed conveyor typically requires a floor area of approximately 2m x 3m, plus space for material handling.

• What types of products can this VFFS bagger handle?

  This type of VFFS bagger is typically suited for a wide range of free-flowing and semi-free-flowing products, including snacks, grains, powders, and small components. Product characteristics influence optimal performance.

• Can this machine handle different bag sizes?

• What maintenance is typically involved with a used VFFS machine?

• What is the significance of the Allen Bradley PLC and touchscreen controls?

Form-fill-seal machines hold strong reputations in food packaging for reliability and consistent output. Buyers typically prioritise machines with clear maintenance histories and verified production specifications. Key strengths include versatility across film types and product formats, alongside relatively straightforward operation. When purchasing used units, inspectors should examine seal quality consistency, film tracking accuracy, and the condition of heating elements. Machines from established manufacturers generally command buyer confidence. Downtime for repairs is a common concern, so availability of spare parts and technical support merits careful consideration before acquisition.
