Overview

Bag filling systems are the final step of a processing plant and directly determine output rate and bag weight accuracy. Facet Engineering designs and supplies bag filling lines sized to the required bags per hour, bag weight, and bag type. Net-weight fillers weigh the product before filling the bag: preferred for premium retail products where exact weight is critical. Gross-weight fillers weigh the bag plus product together: simpler and suitable for lower-value commodities. Bag closing options include stitching (for open-mouth woven and paper bags) and heat sealing (for lined and PE bags). The filled and closed bags are discharged onto a conveyor for transport to the palletiser or manual stacking area.
