This clipping unit is fitted with a separate, pulse-controlled drive unit. It can easily be combined with flow wrapper machines. Due to its intermittent mode of operation, it is ideally suited for manual feeding. It also does not have to be synchronized with an upstream packing machine. The filled bags are transported to a clipping unit positioned at a 90° angle with an inclination angle of 20°, 30° and optional with 45°, or 60 degrees.
An integrated vacuum unit on the clipping station evacuates excess air from the bags to be closed up and ensures consistently neat, taut packaging. The closure is done in the clipping unit before outfeeding.
