230 Series Auger Packer
20 OF 115
Feed gate closes off the material flow inlet hopper when the goes into the dribble mode (used with
products that flow easy and may flood)
The settler stops if running in continuous mode. (No bulk and dribble)
The powered discharge bag chair tilts to discharge the filled bag at the end of the sealer deflation and
returns.
The speed of these features is controlled with special electrical and pneumatic controls. During Phase
One, the operator also places another empty bag on the filling tube after discharge of the previous bag.
PHASE TWO
Phase Two is the condition the machine is in at the beginning of a filling cycle or if the (Start or Auto
Start) pushbutton is pressed. This is what occurs:
The start PB is pressed.
The bag clamps the empty bag to the fill spout
The bag seal inflates inside the valve of the bag (Optional)
The motor drive (auger) and the agitator start to turn.
A delay and then the settler turns on (Optional)
Material starts to flow into the bag and is weighed simultaneously as it is being filled
Weight reaches first set point.
Settler turns off.
Auger and agitator continue to run but go from fast to slow fill.
Weight reaches second set point (final cutoff).
Phase one note:
If machine is equipped with a bulk only feature the auger will never go into a slow speed. It
will continue at the fast speed all the way thru the entire filling cycle.
