BM 1040
Automatic bagging machine
for open-mouth bags
The BM1040 embodies the optimal compromise between compactness, high speed and weighing accuracy. Designed for demanding production lines, it combines productivity of up to 400 bags/hour with exceptional accuracy of ±20 g, all in a small footprint. Its hygienic design ensures a safe and easy-to-clean process.
Description
The BM1040 is a high-speed automatic bagging machine, specially designed for packaging demanding powdered products. It combines performance, cleanliness and product integrity to meet the most stringent standards in the food, chemical and pharmaceutical industries.
Its patented filling technology is at the heart of its performance. This technology significantly reduces dust emissions and product aeration, making it ideal for sensitive powders (additives, vitamins, active ingredients) and ensuring a clean and controlled production environment.
The packaging process is organised around four separate workstations:
- main filling
- deaeration
- finishing filling
- sealing
This process ensures a fast cycle time, exceptional weighing accuracy and optimal protection of your product’s integrity.
Designed with the operator in mind, the BM1040 combines safety, hygiene and ease of use. Its dust-free operation, low maintenance and surfaces optimised for quick cleaning make it the benchmark solution for the hygienic packaging of your powders.
