Premade Pouch Baggers

The PB Series Pre-Made Pouch Baggers are automatic pouch packaging systems designed to pick, open, fill and seal pre-made pouches with consistent speed, accuracy and repeatability. Available in both linear and rotary configurations, the series provides multiple machine sizes and filling options to suit different products, pouch formats and production requirements.

The PB Series accommodates a wide variety of pouch formats, including flat pouches, stand-up pouches (Doypack), zipper pouches, side-spout pouches and gusset pouches. This makes the platform suitable for applications ranging from smaller retail packages to larger-format bags.

The packaging sequence is fully automated. Pre-made pouches are supplied to the machine, individually picked and positioned, opened for filling, filled with the required product and then sealed before being discharged. Pouch-opening detection and no pouch, no fill, no seal functionality can be incorporated to reduce product loss and improperly sealed packages. Similar pre-made pouch systems use automatic bag pickup, opening detection, filling and controlled sealing as part of the complete packaging cycle.

Different filling systems can be integrated according to the product characteristics. For powders, the PB Series can be equipped with screw auger fillers, including larger hopper and vibration-assisted configurations. Granular and free-flowing products can be handled using volumetric cup fillers or multi-head weighing systems.

This makes the PB Series suitable for products such as coffee, spices, flour, powders, grains, rice, pasta, nuts, snacks, candy, pet food and other dry or granular products. Pre-made pouch technology can also be paired with specialized fillers for liquids and pastes when the application requires it.

The linear PB models provide a compact and accessible solution for a variety of pouch sizes. The current range includes the PMPM-210E, PMPM-210, PMPM-280 and the PMPM-250G specifically designed for gusset bags, with speeds ranging from approximately 10 to 45 pouches per minute depending on the model and application.

For rotary applications, the R8-PMPB provides an automatic rotary filling and sealing platform for production speeds up to 45 pouches per minute, while the larger R8-PMPB-XL accommodates pouches up to approximately 11.8 inches wide × 17.7 inches long and filling volumes up to 5 L. Rotary systems are particularly useful when multiple operations—such as pouch pickup, opening, filling and sealing—need to be performed simultaneously at different stations.

For zipper pouches, the PB Series can incorporate a mechanical zipper opener before filling. Additional options include dust collection, date coding, product settling and SS316 product-contact components for applications requiring upgraded contact surfaces.

The PB Series can operate as a standalone pouch bagger or be integrated with product feeding systems, auger fillers, multi-head weighers, volumetric fillers, conveyors, metal detectors, checkweighers, coding systems and downstream case packing equipment as part of a complete turnkey packaging line.
