INPAK SYSTEMS offers a variety of industrial-grade, portable bag sewers. Portable, sometimes called handheld, bag sewers are ideal for low volume (4-8 bags/minute) applications or where a fixed sewing head is not suitable.
Examples, where portable bag closers are used, include closing bales of hops, sewing geotextile tubes, or on a small farm sewing closed bags of seed or feed.
Plain sew models are available in either a horizontal sewing or vertical sewing configuration.
To reduce fatigue and increase production, a spring-loaded suspension unit is available to suspend the portable bag sewer until needed.
