Bagging machines

Three options are usual volume fill, simultaneous fill and weigh, SFW, and preweigh, PW. 

Usually fill the 40-50 kg bag based on volume of powder, not weight - provided that the particles have consistent bulk density, are not easily aerated and the particles flow easily. 

Volume fill particles must have consistent bulk density. 

Use SFW if bulk density varies SFW with accuracy of 0.125 to 0.25% use PW for more accuracy. 

Use valve bag filler for bag size 10-55 kg. Select the feed system based on density and size of the particles

Capacity Definitions In any analysis, the capacity per unit time of dynamic equipment (such as conveyors and bagging machines), as well as the rates at which they ac tuaUy perform, must be defined more precisely and realistically than by a mere statement of kilograms or pounds per hour. Some useful definitions employed by the equipment industi y are the following ... 

It has proved relatively easy to manufacture a dry bag machine for automatic operation whereby production rates of up to 90 components per minute are claimed. In Figure 299 the compaction, ejection, and filling are demonstrated for a spark plug insulator. The actual production rates depend on maximum pressure, size of component, powder properties, and number of tool cavities. 

This chapter considers process vessels (such as reflux drums, KO pots, columns) in Section 10.1, and storage tanks in Section 10.2. Bins and hoppers for the storage and delivery of solids are considered in Section 10.3. Bagging machines are discussed in Section 10.4. 

Chapter 10 considers process and storage vessels, bins and hoppers and bagging machines.

Flat-bottom paper bag machine (Margaret E. Knight) Knight designs a machine that can manufacture flat-bottom paper bags, which can stand open for easy loading. 

Article of Manufacture. An article of manufacture is an iavention such as a two-headed tooth bmsh, an iatravenous fluid bag, or an optical fiber "made" by a machine. One example of an iavention which could be considered an article of manufacture is U.S. Patent No. 5,241,990 tided "Irrigation/Aspiration Valve and Probe for Laparoscopy" (2). 

Another technique to reduce the problems caused by stickies is to use additives to reduce the tackiness of these particles. This prevents their later reagglomeration and attachment to paper machine surfaces. These additives are usually added to the pulper. The most common is talc (17) usually added to the pulper in repulpable bags. Emulsified talc is also sometimes added to the pulp just before the pulp encounters high shear. Organic polymers (18) such as a polyvinylpyrrohdinone (PVP) copolymer (19) have also been reported to reduce the tackiness of stickies. 

Fiber from PPS resins has been made in two forms. Monofilament is used in paper machine drier felts to replace polyester, which is attacked by the hot, corrosive conditions of papermaking. Staple fibers are made into filter bags for flue treatment, and are considered a growth area.
