Gainsborough GV25 Bagger with Linear Weigher

• Packaging of granular products such as rice, pulses, nuts, and seeds.
• Filling of snack foods like crisps, pretzels, and confectionery.
• Bagging of pet food and animal feed products.
• Packaging of non-food items such as small components or aggregates.

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, throughput can typically range from 10 to 30 bags per minute, depending on product density and bag size.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly require a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, with a compressed air supply.

Weight range

Linear weighers on such systems are typically capable of handling weights from a few grams up to 5kg, with specific ranges depending on the load cells installed.

Bag width

The maximum bag width is commonly around 130mm for units configured for smaller pack sizes, though this can vary with forming collar changes.

Frame construction

Many baggers feature a painted mild steel frame for general industrial environments, with product contact parts often in stainless steel.

Weigher configuration

Twin-head linear weighers are common for improved speed and accuracy, particularly for free-flowing products.

Ancillary equipment

Integration with thermal printers, like the included Domino unit, is typical for date coding and batch information.
