The first prototype provided valuable insights that allowed us to further develop the system. The addition of a net unwinding system requires fewer moving parts, making the design more robust and efficient. The results speak for themselves: during this test run, we already achieved a consistent speed of 33 bags per minute, where 30 was the original goal.
Test run in the field
The MoNo Clipper from the video is now at a Dutch customer, where it is filling bags with Brussels sprouts. The machine runs smoothly and consistently, while the temperature of the seal bars remains very stable. The bags are securely closed immediately after sealing and reach their full strength within seconds.
Why a MoNo Clipper
The development of the MoNo Clipper is driven by two main reasons. Firstly, there’s the desire to produce sustainable packaging that is easily recyclable, unlike traditional clip-on bags. Secondly, legislation is becoming increasingly strict, and supermarkets are actively encouraging the transition to more sustainable packaging. This is driving growing market demand for this machine.
In summary
- Produces mono material net bags
- For onions, shallots, lemons and oranges etc.
- Currently up to 30 bags per minute
- Automatic tube change
- Easily recyclable
- Alternative to clipped net bags
