OverviewCRYOVAC® brand Automatic Bag Loaders bring production efficiency to the process of preparing large, heavy food items for primary packaging. While the AL75 and AL101 are high-speed bagging systems for deli slicing logs and fresh meats respectively, the CL20 is a specialized machine that inserts 40 lb (≈18 kg) cheese blocks into gusseted pouches. Designed as components of a fully automated packaging line, CRYOVAC® automatic bag loaders reduce labor risks associated with repetitive motion and high-stress positions while moving heavy objects. These systems integrate with conveyors, vacuum systems, and turners, and are designed for quick servicing and easy product changeovers.
