Fully automated system at GRS

FFS Line – Last month saw RMGroup engineers complete the installation of a high speed packing line at GRS. One of the UK’s largest aggregate suppliers.

Throughout the installation we periodically photographed progress in order to provide a step by step insight, from the start of installation, through to commissioning of the working packing line. As a result, we are pleased to share those photographs in a time lapse video format.

At the heart of the high speed packing line is one of RMGroups Vertical Form Fill & Seal systems. These have time and again proved ideal for this type of application, packing various aggregates. The “VFFS” is complimented by a wider RMGroup system, consisting bulk hopper and infeed, bag handling and pallet conveyors, an automatic pallet dispenser and a high speed palletising robot, model: ABB IRB460.

Installation and commissioning at the GRS Blackwater site to a full operational high speed line, was completed by RMGroup’s own team of experienced installation engineers.
