Wide-Load Bagging Machines “Promise Better Packaging Flexibility”

Growing e-commerce businesses can now benefit from increased flexibility of mail order packaging following the launch of a range of wide-load bagging machines, it is claimed.

With e-commerce continuing to grow year on year, along with ever-changing customer requirements, Automated Packaging Systems has launched the the Autobag® 600™ and Autobag® 650™, designed to offer large bag packaging, providing mail order customers with a packaging solution, regardless of product size.

The Autobag® 600™ offers speeds of up to 65 bags per minute and can efficiently pack and seal polythene bags up to 400mm wide by 680mm long. Pack sizes can also be changed in less than two minutes using Autobag pre-opened bags-on-a-roll.

Specifically aimed at the mail order market, the Autobag® 650™ features a fully-integrated next-bag-out printer, which is particularly useful when printing labels with frequently changing data such as carrier labels. This eliminates the need for a separate labelling operation, simultaneously preventing product queues, reducing waste and also making the bag 100% recyclable.
