Giro Pack Wants to Make Filling Easier in Your Packinghouse


Fri. October 20th, 2017 - by ANUK Staff

VIDALIA, GA – Giro Pack, Inc. introduces new box filling machine and high-speed dynamic weigher to further streamline and automate packinghouse bagging operations. The new Exact-100 offers more bags per minute, increased accuracy, and the ability to feed 3 baggers simultaneously with the same footprint as most layouts with only 2 baggers.  

The GBF-100 automates the last step in the packaging line (the filling of boxes with net bags); resulting in improved efficiency and ultimately a savings in labor costs. This new machine is also extremely versatile and can accommodate an array of pack styles and weights, across a variety of different commodities.

Stop by Booth #1259 in New Orleans to see the GBF-100 first-hand and watch the Exact-100 video running full production at Fowler Packing.
