- 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.
