Sack Filling Machines – The right valve to choose

Valves for Sack Filling Machinery Sack or bag filling machines are expertly designed with the precision control of a pinch valve. The pinch valve opens and closes extremely quickly, ensuring the media such as powders, granules, food, pet food, horticultural seed and flakes are shut off at the exact required time. The fully open, true bore of a pinch valve easily allows the media to flow through with no blockages or restrictions. Packaging type usages include open mouth buckets and drums. Each bag on a machine will have a weight limit, and sits on top of a weighing scale. When the weight of a sack almost reaches it’s required weight, a signal is sent to a sensor, instructing the pinch valve to shut off quickly. The last dregs of a product trickle out through the valve before the bag is full. It is common for many sack filling machinery filling between 2-50kg bags, up to 3000kg per hour. The quick closing action of a pinch valve ensures that the bag weighs the exact amount. The heat sealer machinery below provides a fast, strong and reliable heat welded seam for packaging products.
