- Typical throughput
- Units of this class commonly achieve 10-20 bags per minute, depending on bag size and operator efficiency.
- Power supply
- Bag stitchers often require a single-phase 230V, 50Hz electrical supply, though industrial setups may use three-phase.
- Bag material suitability
- Typically suitable for multi-wall paper bags, woven polypropylene bags, and some laminated materials.
- Stitch type
- Most Medway stitchers produce a single-thread chain stitch, known for its strength and ease of opening.
- Construction material
- As described, the Model 150 features robust cast iron construction, common for durability in industrial environments.
- Footprint (approximate)
- When mounted on a frame, the operational footprint for this type of unit is typically around 0.8m x 0.8m, plus space for bag handling.
- Maintenance requirements
- Regular oiling, needle replacement, and tension adjustments are typically required to ensure optimal performance.
