KHS Innopouch Bartelt K series pouching machine

The Innopouch Bartelt K series from KHS is a pouching machine with a full range of servo equipment. It has short set-up times, a high level of productivity and can be combined with the KHS Innopack Bartelt CMC cartoner for a pouch packaging line from a single source.

The poucher is available in two versions: an FS (fill and seal) machine for pouch filling and an FFS (form, fill and seal) variant for pouch production and filling. The production stage can be flexibly retrofitted from the FS to the FFS version at a later stage as the machine is modular.

The horizontal, cyclic packaging system makes stand-up, flat and bottom gusset pouches from film laminate. It can run in both simplex (one pouch per machine cycle) and duplex (two pouches per machine cycle) operation. The Innopouch K-400 changes formats at the press of a button using linear servotechnology.

The machine produces up to 150 pouches/min in duplex operation measuring between 100 and 380 mm in height and 100 and 400 mm in width. The maximum weight is 2.5 kg. It can produce large pouches, such as for pet food, or small bags for salty snacks or dried fruit.

The standard version of the machine has four filling stations connected in series which can be added to as required. The dosing systems are selected according to the product to be filled, with volumetric systems, such as auger fillers, table feeders and sliding gate fillers, and gravimetric systems like multihead weighers all possible.
