Choosing A World Class Bagging Machine For Wood Pellets?
If you're manufacturing wood pellets, you'll want a packaging solution or bagging machine for wood pellets that offers fast speeds and reliable weighing accuracy. Here's how Form Fill Seal/ FFS bagging for pellets could meet your needs and why It’s worth considering palletising wood pellets that you’ve packaged and prepared for sale.
Wooden pellets are clean energy and fuel sources used in place of charcoal, oil and gas. They're popular for use on farms in everything from animal bedding to flooring. Made from the sawdust, shaving and offcuts produced during wood processing, wood pellets are dried and compacted to form a range of different size pellets that clients can easily handle and store. Many pellet producers have chosen to invest their resources in automatic packaging solutions, with their goal being to reduce production costs through automation and be more competitive in the market.
Here are a few options for packaging your wood pellets in a range of volumes:

Preparing Your Wood Pellets For Packaging And Distribution
Your packaged wood pellets will need protection as they’re distributed throughout the supply chain. You’ll want a solution for palletising wood pellets that will waterproof them and keep them in place while being transported. A robot palletiser can accomplish this with the use of an automatic or semi-automatic stretch wrapper.
