Machine applicator for valved sacks - uses take=off table with stop at one end, swivelable into sack conveyor path at other end

摘要

The application for a sack filling machine is intended for sacks, which are supplied flat, with bottoms upwards, by a conveyor. Movable gripping tools hold the sacks, and push the valve aperture onto a filling tube branch. The sacks are moved onto a take-off table above the conveyor path. One end of the table may be swivelled into the conveyor path, while a stop is located at the other table end. The gripping tools preferably engage at both ends of the sack, to push it horizontally onto the filling tube branch. A monitor may be used for detecting correct placing of the sack, while a control may return it to the table when it is placed incorrectly.
