• Automate the packaging of polyfiber into sealed plastic bags.
• Replace a manual operation and accomplish the following:
  • Acquire polyfiber by weight and stuff into various size bags
  • Quickly reconfigure the machine for various size bags
  • Process cycle time must be equal or better then the manual cycle of 6 seconds
• The polyfiber contaminates rolling element bearings and leads  to premature failure.

• Ram Section compresses and pushes the bulk fiber through a series of chutes into an oval shaped funnel.
• Funnel Section opens and clamps a left or right bag around one of two funnels for faster cycles.
• Conveyor section removes stuffed bag from the funnel and then compresses, vacuum seals and exits the bag.
