Valve Bag Fillers
A Pasted Valve Stepped End ("PVSE") bag is a common industrial packaging style designed to package dry flowable products. Valve bags are packed on equipment that deposits material into the bag via a horizontal filling spout. When the bag is discharged from the packing equipment, forces generated by the product inside the bag allow the valve opening to self-seal. Valve openings can also be hermetically sealed using ultrasonic vibration or heat.
Fast, accurate, and efficient, valve bag fillers pump product into bags using gravity, air pressure, impeller, or auger. The enclosed filling process significantly reduces or eliminates spillage and dust hazards. The size, speed, output, and degree of automation of valve bagging machines vary. There are three basic types of valve bag filling machines: auger, forced air, and impeller.
Auger Valve Bag Filler
Auger packers utilize a horizontal screw to convey product from a supply hopper through the fill spout and into the bag. The screw is powered by a drive shaft that turns the screw. This style of packing system is ideal for cake-like powders, flakes, and granular products. In general, auger bag filling equipment packs bags slower than impeller or forced air packing equipment.
Bag filling weight range: 20-55 lbs. (9-25 kg)
Production rate: 1-5 bags per minute (material and bag size dependent)
Material density range: 20-75 lbs (9-34 kg) per cubic foot

Bag types: Internal sleeve and/or tuck-in sleeve paper, plastic film, and poly woven bags
Clean Duty — Model 2050
Industrial Duty — Model 2300
Sonic Seal — Model 2450
Forced Air Valve Bag Filler
Sometimes called forced flow or pneumatic packers, forced air packers are high-speed, gross-weight baggers. This type fills valve bags by blowing fluidized material into them. The forced air packer offers both excellent weight accuracy and simple operation. Air packers provide high filling rates and minimal strain on bags
Bag filling weight range: 20-110 lbs. (9-50 kg)
Production rate: 1-10 bags per minute (material and bag size dependent)
Material density range: 30-150 lbs (13.6-68 kg) per cubic foot
Operating modes: Semi- (operator assisted) or fully-automatic
Bag types: Internal sleeve and/or tuck-in sleeve paper, plastic film, and poly woven bags

Digital — Model 7300
Mechanical — Model 7700
Sonic Seal — Model 7550
Impeller Valve Bag Filler
Impeller packers use a multi-blade vertical or horizontal impeller to convey product into a bag. Product flows by gravity from the supply hopper into the product feed inlet at the top of the machine. When a fill cycle is initiated, the impeller creates a positive draw on the product, moving it through the feeder and into the bag. The impeller packer is designed for maximum efficiency by entraining less air, which results in faster filling rates and smaller-sized bags.
Bag filling weight range: 20-110 lbs. (9-50 kg)
Production rate: 1-8 bags per minute (material and bag size dependent)
Material density range: 50-100 lbs (22.7-45.45 kg) per cubic foot
Operating modes: Semi- (operator assisted) or fully-automatic
Bag types: Internal sleeve and/or tuck-in sleeve paper, plastic film, and poly woven bags
