Description
The Common Bagger by Sunny Solly Machines is a high-efficiency, dual-filling integrated Vertical Form Fill Seal (VFFS) packaging system engineered to deliver exceptional production flexibility, operational efficiency, and multi-product packaging capability. Designed around a common bagging platform with a shared pouch forming and sealing system, the machine supports the integration of two independent filling technologies, including Volumetric Cup Filler, Auger Filler, Weigh Filler, and Infeed Conveyor Filler combinations, which can operate individually or in configurable dual-filling arrangements depending on the application requirements. Developed for manufacturers handling powders, granules, and hardware products within the same production environment, the Common Bagger eliminates the need for separate VFFS machines for different product categories, significantly reducing capital investment while optimizing floor space, productivity, and operational efficiency. Depending on the selected filling configuration, the formed pouch can be filled through a disc cup filler for free-flowing granules, an auger screw filler for powders and similar materials, or an infeed conveyor filler for hardware components and irregular products. The Common Bagger is an ideal solution for businesses seeking scalable automation, dual-product packaging flexibility, and high-performance VFFS packaging within a single integrated system.
The SS-150 Common Bagger is a high-performance dual-filling packaging solution built on the compact SS-150 VFFS platform, designed for packing granular, powder, and hardware products into heat-sealable laminated film pouches using a common pouch forming and sealing system. Engineered to deliver enhanced productivity, superior pouch aesthetics, and premium-quality centre sealed pouches across various sizes, the machine supports configurable dual filling arrangements, including Volumetric Cup Filler, Auger Filler, and Infeed Conveyor Filler combinations, enabling versatile multi-product packaging applications within a single integrated system. The machine is suitable for packing products such as spices, pulses, grains, sugar, salt, tea, coffee powder, flour, protein powders, chemicals, hardware and similar materials, making it ideal for manufacturers handling multiple product categories. Built with reinforced construction, advanced pneumatic sealing, rubber roller pulling mechanism, high-precision colour contrast sensor, PID-controlled heating elements, and a PLC-based touch screen interface for real-time monitoring and parameter control, the SS-150 Common Bagger is well-suited for industrial-scale operations seeking maximum output, durability, and seamless product versatility within a single automated bagging system. Pneumatically actuated top and bottom sealers are integrated with batch-cutting system for either single pouches or perforated chain of pouches. Laminate feeding is achieved through pneumatically pressurised rubber rollers, providing smooth and consistent laminate flow.
The disc cup filling system comprises of a round rotating disc with calibrated volumetric cups, which discharge the required quantity of product directly into the formed pouch by gravity. The auger screw filling system comprises a servo motor-driven auger screw mechanism that rotates within the product hopper to measure and convey the product downward, dispensing a precise and consistent quantity through controlled revolutions of the helical screw directly into the formed pouch, making it ideal for powdery products. Additionally, the hopper is fitted with an agitator (stirrer) powered by a dedicated motor-gearbox assembly, which continuously conditions the product to prevent compaction, or solidification, thereby maintaining uniform bulk density and ensuring smooth, uninterrupted feeding into the auger screw mechanism. The infeed conveyor filling system comprises of a 3-metre belt/slat conveyor with partitioned sections/buckets that carry the required quantity of the product into the infeed funnel and then discharged directly into the formed pouch by gravity through the collar pipe.
The electrical panel is designed incorporating components from Schneider, Omron, L&T, Selec, Unison and Connectwell. It features a user-friendly interface for ease of operation and an improved customer experience. All product contact parts are made from Stainless Steel (SS-304).
