Automatic bagging machine for SOS – Self Opening System – type bags

An automatic bagging machine for SOS bags (also known as self-opening system bags) is a machine that is used to fill and seal these types of bags automatically. SOS bags are a type of flexible packaging that have a peelable strip on the top of the bag, which allows the bag to be opened easily without the need for scissors or other cutting tools.

Automatic bagging machines for SOS bags typically work by first placing the bag in a hopper, where it is fed into the machine. The bag is then filled with the desired product, typically using a system of augers or other dispensing equipment. Once the bag is filled to the desired level, it is sealed and then ejected from the machine.

There are a variety of different automatic bagging machines available for SOS bags, ranging from simple, manual machines to fully automated systems that can handle high volumes of bags. These machines can be used in a variety of different industries, including food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and chemical.

SOS bag rolls are fed into the machine. SOS bags have a special opening mechanism that allows them to self-open when triggered.

The SOS bag opening mechanism is activated, which causes the bag edges to spread and the bag bottom to form a slot for product insertion. This is done using air nozzles, mechanical triggers or vacuum cups, depending on the machine design.

Products are then fed into the open, self-spread bag using conveyors, precision feeders, chutes or nozzles.

The bag opening mechanism then releases the bag edges, allowing it to envelope the products. No further bag manipulation is required.

The bag is sealed above the products using heat, tie wraps, adhesives or another closure method compatible with the SOS bag material.

The filled and sealed bag is released from the machine using outfeed conveyors or chutes.

A PLC control system coordinates the activation of the bag opening mechanism with product feeding and sealing. This ensures a consistent, automated bagging cycle.

Safety guards cover moving parts and integrating interlocks to protect operators.
