Innovative Plastic Bigbag and Octabin Packing Line

For a Innovative plastic compound producer in The Netherlands, Delaere has delivered a complex double bigbag/octabin filling line for packing 20 ton of plastics per hour per filling line in octabins. The batches to be packed have a limited volume and the customer is frequently switching between the different grades to be packed. The complete filling system is washable with water.
