Open Mouth Bagging Machine Basics
Well suited for both manual and automated applications, open mouth bagging machines quickly package both food and non-food grade materials. They’re ideal for dry, free-flowing, and hard-to-handle materials with minimal dust, but also work effectively with landscaping, feed, seed, nuts, fertilizer and food products.
Classes and Feeder Systems
There are two classes of open-mouth bag fillers: gross weigh machines that fill and weigh bags simultaneously and net weigh baggers that pre-weigh and fill as a secondary step. Each bag filler class can be fed by one of the following systems: gravity, vibratory pan, belt and auger.
What is an Open Mouth Bag?
Open mouth bags come in a variety of types based on specific manufacturer needs. They include pinch bottom (paper), sewn open mouth (both paper and plastic), and heat sealed (film) bags. Depending on construction, open mouth bags are usually closed by sewing, heat sealing, or gluing.
Sewn open mouth bags are the preferred choice for agricultural, feed, and seed applications. Economical and tough, they’re easily opened with a pull tab cord at the top. This bag style can also be manufactured with PE-free film or PE-liners for enhanced moisture protection.
