Introduction to Polymer Gross Bagging Machine
A polymer gross bagging machine is a production-ready weighing and filling system used to pack polymer granules, pellets, and regrind into bags with consistent, repeatable accuracy. In a gross weighing process, the bag is filled while mounted on the weigh frame, and the controller measures the weight in real time to stop feeding at the target setpoint. Samirika Group manufactures gross bagging machines designed for stable performance in polymer plants, compounding units, masterbatch lines, and packaging stations where clean filling, dust control, and reliable throughput matter.
Working Principle and Process Flow of Polymer Gross Bagging Machine
The system feeds polymer material from a hopper or silo using a suitable feeding device, such as gravity gate, belt, screw, or vibratory feeder. The bag is clamped to the filling spout and supported on a weighing platform with load cells. The controller starts the feed in a fast mode and then switches to a fine feed near the target to improve accuracy. When the set weight is reached, the feed gate closes, the bag is released for sealing or stitching, and the next empty bag is clamped for the next cycle. This controlled flow helps reduce spillage and keeps bag weights consistent for dispatch and inventory control.
Types of Polymer Gross Bagging Machines
- Gravity Gross Bagger – Suitable for free-flowing polymer granules and pellets where simple, fast filling is required.
- Valve Bag Gross Bagger – Designed for clean packing into valve bags with controlled air and dust management options.
- Open Mouth Gross Bagger – Ideal for woven sacks and liners, commonly used for polymers in 25 kg and 50 kg packing.
- Screw Feed Gross Bagger – Works for polymer powders, additive blends, and non-free-flowing materials requiring controlled feeding.
- High-Speed Gross Bagging Station – Built with fast and fine feed control for higher output polymer dispatch lines.
