Bags on a roll are an alternative to palletized sacks.
The ROTASAC winds the sacks on rolls using two narrow tapes
that hold the sacks in place. With a diameter of approx. 60" (1.5
meters), the finished rolls contain 3,500 – 5,000 sacks.
Depending on requirements, the
ROTASAC can work in conjunction with a bottomer using TRANSYSTEMSautomation
and be integrated into the automatic production flow or it can be used off-line
as a separate sack winder. The machine consists of a rotary feeder to separate
the individual sacks from the stack, a shingle conveyor to transfer the sacks
to the winding system, and the winding system itself.
Two winding units are incorporated and are alternately supplied with sacks. They can be moved sideways to allow for fast and easy roll changes. Once the tapes are fixed in place (either by sealing or gluing), the finished rolls are delivered to a transport pallet using hydraulically operated arms. |
