The GEA V-Packer IM is an intermittent motion packaging system suitable for the handling of short cut pasta and dry granular food.
Machine controlled by PLC, driven by brushless independent motors and its versatility permits possible couplings with any kind of weigher and doser. It is designed for those customers that do not have relevant need for high speeds, but they rather focus on the quality of the packaging, especially concerning flat bottom bags.
Machine parameters are managed electronically thanks to the operator interface touchscreen type color panel for memorization, control and self-diagnostic of the operation parameters and to help the operator to identify easily the eventual machine stop causes.
The high quality of components (all parts in contact with the product are in stainless steel) sharply reduces parts wear and consequently maintenance time.
• Packaging speed: up to 80 bags per minute (pillow type);
• Packaging speed: up to 65 bags per minute (flat bottom type).
