New bagging solution unveiled by Pregis

The new SX Continuous Roll Bagging System is the first of three Sharp bagging solutions that Pregis is introducing into Europe this year.

Sharp Packaging Systems is a leading packaging technology brand in the US. Visitors to the forthcoming shows will be able to see live demonstrations of the SX, to see the ease at which high volumes of all kinds of goods can be packed, and how it reduces handling and labour costs, eliminates waste, and speeds up dispatch times.

Compact, lightweight and simple to use, the SX Continuous Roll Bagging System is a semi-automatic, all-electric bagging system that requires no air compressor, meaning that it can be plugged in anywhere and is ready to go. The system then simply loads, prints and seals bags in one smooth process.

Sharp’s E-Z Bags, which come in a range of sizes, feed through the machine, are labelled or addressed, then opened automatically with the cross-flow fan which channels high volume, low pressure ducted air for precise bag opening. The operator then simply inserts the goods and the bag is then automatically sealed and released, ready for dispatch.

The wide 10cm print head allows users to print unique bar codes, shipping information and graphics directly on to Sharp’s E-Z Bags transfer printer, high resolution and superior quality colour printing is always consistent. The electronic ‘ribbon out’ sensor prevents ribbon waste, and finished rolls are quick and easy to change, minimising downtime.

Fulfillment

The SX Continuous Roll Bagging System is suited for small or large mail-order fulfilment for eCommerce or industrial brands. It can be used standalone, on a work bench or integrated with other picking, packing, weighing or conveyor systems.

Maintenance costs are also significantly reduced due to all parts being off-the-shelf – this means they are simple to change and cheaper to replace.
