Esse Gi Pc 350 baling system complete with ABB robot supplied to bale wood shavings
- Baling systems installed for wood shavings at International Timber. . .
-
Last year we were approached by the UK's largest timber supplier, International Timber. They were looking for a fully automated solution to baling their wood shavings/sawdust which is a by-product of their saw mill in Grangemouth, Scotland. Fortunately, we had the fully automated Esse gi pc 350 baler in stock. Together with an ABB robot palletising system we installed a fully automated line which is capable of baling 4.5 bales per minute.

For this particular system we installed a walking floor trailer which was externally situated. Product is blown into the trailer, which in turn is transferred into a screw conveyor and then onto an inclined belt conveyor. The product drops into the inlet hopper situated above the baler and then deposited into the weigh pan. Product is then compacted in the compression chamber, before being pushed into a forming tube. The film is pulled around the shoulders of the forming tube and sealed vertically and horizontally. The robot palletising system then stacks the bales neatly on a pallet. |

Managing Director Edward Rees presents cheque to family hospice Ty Hafan following successful charity bike ride
Earlier this year Edward and friend Nigel hopped on their bikes and cycled from John O groats to Lands end, all in aid of family hospice for young lives - Ty Hafan. The journey to scale the length and breadth of the country took all of 10 days, they both covered just under 100 miles a day. Thanks to their efforts, they raised a huge £8,580.00. Tŷ Hafan offers comfort, care and support for life-limited children and young people and is dedicated to improving the quality of life for the whole family. Most importantly this care is given completely free of charge to the families in Wales who need it.
Providing this level of support and care costs over £3m every year, so every pound raised really does make a big difference.
Well done Nigel and Edward (Pictured far right)! |

RMGroup are pleased to announce the arrival of the MB-300 as part of our manual bag filling systems range. Our engineers have been developing this system which can be applied to various products including aggregates, salt, decorative gravels, wood pellets, cat litter, animal feeds and much more.
We wanted to design a robust bagging system which was operator friendly, capable of high throughputs, needed very few consumable spares and becomes accessible to those who were new to the packaging industry. From this, we developed the MB-300 compatible with many applications. The system comes complete with 4 tonne hopper 3210mm(h)x2000mm(w)x2000mm(d), shaker tray, electronic load cell bag clamp, weigh indicator, trolley and Star 66 heat sealer with pedalstool and footswitch.

NEW heat sealing total bag control installed for aggregate bagging line

Our technical engineers at RMGroup have been busy designing an all NEW heat sealing system which combines heat sealing and total bag control. The total bag control is built with heat sealing bars that seals the bag as it is traveling down the conveyor towards the bag turner/flattener. This system is ideal for those looking for alternative solutions to heat sealing, those needing to modify their existing manual bagging system for semi or full automation. Heat is fully adjustable to suit any thickness of polyethylene.
The first heat sealing system was successfully installed earlier this week for an aggregates firm, and is currently operating at 10.5 bags a minute. We also installed a polar bag placer for a fully automated bagging line.

Reviews from customers who have recently hired RMGroup's mobile line. . . .
"Due to the large amount of salt Online rock salt imports, it made sense to invest in a mobile bagging line. The salt is shipped into the UK so having the ability to easily move the line between ports quickly was vital. Due to the high demand caused by this winter Online rock salt needed an additional bagging line sooner than expected. Online rock salt contacted RMGroup who offered us a bagging line on hire, to be followed by delivery of our new LTF 800 - mobile bagging line in June 2011. RMGroup installed the plant in one weekend and trained our own operators to use the new machine. We have been really pleased with the service from RMGroup so far and look forward to working with them over the coming years."
