Automated Bagging and Palletizing Line

 

EQUIPMENT:

  • TE100 Weigh Head
  • Mini Sewing System
  • Bag turner and steeping conveyor
  • Bag Code Printer
  • Low Level Palletizer

“We’ve greatly increased productivity and cut costs significantly since purchasing the automated bag filling and closing line and palletizer for our business. The ability to bag quickly and efficiently has hugely sped up our production.

We’re seasonal and clean our seeds six months of the year. It’s been difficult to hire three operators to work for that short amount of time, train them up and then at the end of it, have to let them go. Now we’re down to one operator the whole year around, which cuts costs significantly. And our operator loves it! No more lifting bags.

I’d recommend Aurora’s end of line process solutions to others in the industry because of the productivity gains alone. I’d also say get them because they’re simple to use, especially compared to other models I’ve looked at.

Their knowledge and skills are terrific. They know the machinery back to front and nine times out of ten can fix whatever problem I’m having over the phone, just by giving me simple instructions.

Plus, the people at Aurora are good to work with. Mike’s really approachable and I like that they gave me a direct mobile number and have a ‘any issues, ring me’ attitude. They kept me posted on project management and delivery times too, couldn’t fault it.”
