Used Multihead Bagging line

• Packaging of snack foods such as crisps, nuts, and confectionery.
• Bagging of granular products like rice, pasta, and pulses.
• Filling and sealing of frozen foods, including vegetables and prepared meals.
• Packaging of pet food and animal feed products.
• Bagging of non-food items such as small components or aggregates.

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, throughput can typically range from 30 to 120 bags per minute, depending on product, bag size, and specific multihead weigher configuration.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly require a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, with varying amperage requirements based on motor sizes and heating elements.

Bag types

Multihead bagging lines are typically designed to produce pillow bags, gusseted bags, or block bottom bags from a roll of film.

Product feed

Suitable for free-flowing granular, particulate, or irregular-shaped products that can be accurately weighed by a multihead weigher.

Footprint

The overall footprint for a complete line, including multihead weigher, VFFS machine, and outfeed conveyor, typically requires a significant floor area, often upwards of 4-6 metres in length and 2-3 metres in width.

Control system

Modern bagging lines commonly feature PLC control with a HMI touchscreen for operation and recipe management.

• What components typically make up a multihead bagging line?

  A complete line commonly includes a product infeed system (e.g., Z-elevator), a multihead weigher, a vertical form-fill-seal (VFFS) machine, and an outfeed conveyor.

• What types of film can these machines use?

• Is this type of equipment suitable for dusty products?

• What maintenance is typically required for a multihead bagging line?

• Can a used multihead bagging line be reconfigured for different bag sizes?

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.
