New Automated Flour Packaging Line Is Faster, Safer & More Efficient
A new automated flour packaging line at PGP International’s Woodland, California, plant is making valve bag packing faster, safer and more energy efficient.
The new line features a high-speed filling process that improves the density and de-aeration of the flour to give a more compact, ‘brick shaped’ appearance when the valve bags are full. After filling, the bags are ultrasonically sealed in-line to reduce flour leakage, prevent foreign material entering the bag and minimize the risk of infestation throughout the supply chain.
