They roll down to the counting and bundling station, where a ring head ties the bundle with film. The control panel with a touch screen and a red emergency stop sits on the frame beside the station. The tied bundle then moves on to the bagging station, is pushed into a bag, and leaves the line sealed.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"sequence\">The bagging sequence<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Collect.<\/strong> Pipes from the extruder and cutter roll onto the collecting table.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Count.<\/strong> The machine counts pipes automatically, by program setting.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Tie.<\/strong> LLDPE stretch film ties the bundle so it stays round before bagging.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Make the bag.<\/strong> The machine forms a bag from welded PE or PP film.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Fill.<\/strong> A pusher drives the bundle into the bag.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Seal and discharge.<\/strong> The bag is sealed and carried to the line end, where it is tilted off.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Tying before bagging matters on small pipes. A loose bundle of thin pipes spreads as the pusher drives it, and the ends catch on the bag mouth.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"bundle-size\">Sizing the bundle<\/h2>\n<p>Bundle size limits are a diameter of 180\u2013250 mm and a weight of 10\u201350 kg. Illustrative example with round pipe packed in a hexagonal bundle, where pipes per bundle \u2248 0.8 \u00d7 (bundle OD \u00f7 pipe OD)\u00b2, rounded down on small counts, which pack less densely:<\/p>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Pipe OD<\/th>\n<th>Bundle OD<\/th>\n<th>Pipes per bundle (approx.)<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>20 mm<\/td>\n<td>200 mm<\/td>\n<td>about 80<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>32 mm<\/td>\n<td>220 mm<\/td>\n<td>about 37<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>63 mm<\/td>\n<td>250 mm<\/td>\n<td>about 11<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Check the weight too: a long, heavy-wall pipe can reach the 50 kg limit before the bundle reaches 250 mm.
