Chronos BTH and APF present state-of-the art Packaging Systems at the AUSPACK PLUS, Melbourne, March 22nd – 25th, 2011

The company will display an innovative Chronos BTH Bottom-Up Bag Filling System. Chronos BTH has recently developed and introduced a hygienic bottom-up filling system for powders (especially dairy products) into open-mouth bags. The innovative dust proof, patented bottom up filling technology guarantees high accuracies in the powder packing process. The machine features a closed bag-top transport mechanism, quick and simple cleaning, fast change-over times and minimized dust emission. Furthermore the bagging system is available in full stainless-steel version or an ATEX design. Optional nitrogen purging is possible. During bag transportation the bag-top remains closed. The machine control zone is separated from the functioning bagging zone. There are no fixing devices in the product flow, internal components and those that come into contact with bulk material are sanitary welded and the exterior machine parts have a polished finish.
