Flexibility is now a requisite for bagging equipment. As consumer food-packaging needs change, bakers and snack producers must be able to quickly adapt, so purchasing a machine that only makes one type of bag is no longer an option.
Automated systems capable of running higher payloads at higher speeds are important to bakers and snack producers, too, especially to those with high-volume customers, such as big box and club store retailers. In response, bagging equipment manufacturers are offering systems that focus on automation and system integration.
