NB Fall-damper filler

NB Filler is a universal device used for filling both boxes and Big-bags with potatoes and other vegetables.
The key feature of the NB fall-damper filler is its versatility. Depending on the operator’s choice the device can be used as a BIG-BAG filler or as a box filler.

The device is equipped with a fall-damper, which lifts automatically, while the product level is rising. The fall-dampers are made of two-layer, robust PVC material. The filling process is controlled by a dust-resistant ultrasonic sensors. The filling is completed once the BIG-BAG/box is full or once the set weight was reached.

Installing an empty BIG-BAG was simplified thanks to electrical controls of the arms. After pressing a button, the machine automatically prepares all the working elements to hanging a BIG-BAG (it lifts the fall-damper and lowers the arms). The machines doesn’t require any adjustments.: the filler automatically adjust the height of the working elements to the BIG-BAG size.

Taking the filled BIG-BAG out is also automatic. A sensor that controls the tension of the bag and suitably shaped handles on which the bag is hanged made taking the filled BIG-BAG out is automatic. Once the bag is filled, the handles lower automatically to a position that enables the operator to take the BIG-BAG out without walking out of the forklift.

As standard the construction of the machine is made of powder-painted steel.
