Beumer Group, Beckum, Germany, with annual sales of about €700 million, has introduced the BEUMER bag-in-bag system which quickly and reliably packs filled paper bags individually or in groups with a weather-resistant plastic film. This protects the contents against moisture, dust, insects and other environmental influences during storage and transport. The system is said to be easy to integrate into existing filling and packaging lines. 

 

The impermeable film keeps dust from escaping from the filled bags, and it also prevents product loss. The films have thicknesses of 30 to 100 microns, so material costs are low. The outer packaging in the paper bags does not require an intermediate layer made of PE, a factor which also cuts costs and increases filling performance. This highly efficient system is so reliable that ultrasonic welding of the bags is usually not necessary.

 

Users can integrate the bag-in-bag system seamlessly into their work processes by simply installing it into an existing feeding line, so that it can supplement the BEUMER fillpac inline packer and the BEUMER paletpac high-performance palletiser. Expensive modification and system changes are unnecessary. The bag-in-bag is designed for inline packers with a capacities up to 800 bags/hour. It can be configured for three different applications: a semi-automatic insular solution, a fully automatic depalletising, packaging and palletising line, or an integrated solution in which machines can be switched on individually. Thus the system can be adapted to specific customer requirements. www.beumergroup.com
