prototype

machine produces bags of varying sizes which are formed, precisely filled and sealed at rates up to 25 bags p/min. This fully programmable machine was manufactured in 316 Stainless Steel as one of the many requirements to meet food industry standards.

Solution:

The machine was developed by our team from initial concept through to completion. The machine was 3D modelled in Autodesk Inventor from our concept drawings.

The manufactured components were, depending on the component, built in house or shopped out due to time, manpower or equipment constraints. Off the shelf components were sourced, where possible, in Australia.

The

machine prototyping

and construction were all completed at our premises, which included mechanical, control system, pneumatic and electrical components.

The construction phase was then followed by a testing and fine tuning phase before the machine was shipped to, and commissioned at, the customers show room premises.

Technology:

The Bag Filling and Forming Machine incorporated multiple

servo

interaction. There is a

servo controlled

linear module

and 6

Exlar linear actuators

which interacted with a

servo controlled

rotary

indexing table

. The Pneumatics ranged from standard cylinders to a 2 position rotary actuator. The machine was controlled by a

PLC

and interfaced via a WinXP Embedded touch screen HMI.
