Feige fills ready-mixed mortar into plastic bags



Following the trend, JUB thought about filling ready-mixed mortar into plastic bags. Economical and ecological advantages for the producer and the customer made the decision for the bag easier. Compared with the packing in conventional pails, less storage capacity is required and raw materials are saved.
Since 2003 Feige Filling has delivered 6 filling machines for the filling of paints and mortars to JUB in Slovenia and Serbia. This time the compact design of the semiautomatic bag filling and sealing machine type 4 and the minimal installation work required were the persuading factors.
After the operator has placed an open bag into the bag holding device he only needs to press the start button. The bag is held securely during filling and is supported by the bag support. After precise W&M approved filling in coarse and fine fill the bag is removed from the filler and sealed with a sealing unit.
Even for the cost-effective bag filler one important feature of Feige filling machines is not missing: Filling valves with minimum dead space and self-adjusting sealing, with quick connectors for quick change of product and efficient cleaning. For the filling of 30kg of mortar open polyethylene bags are used which have been enforced additionally. Up to 150 bags can be filled per hour.
Once again the Haver & Boecker Group has proven to be a cumulative technology competence. Not only are agitators from the subsidiary Sommer GmbH & Co. KG being used in the preparation processes. But all components for the handling of the bag from the filling to the sealing process were also acquired from the Haver & Boecker Maschinenfabrik.
