When the bag does not open on a servo bagging machine, the cause is usually related to the suction cups, program or vacuum valve, air tube, or bag material. Check these items one by one. If non-standard parts such as suction cup mounting bases, air line fittings, or vacuum valve mounting plates are worn or need to be modified for the site, we can custom machine them according to customer drawings. Hansheng Automation supports single-piece and small-batch delivery.

 

Suction cup problems

Worn suction cups, insufficient suction force, or dust and dirt on the surface can cause bag pickup failure. Maintenance personnel can replace the suction cups, adjust the suction force, and clean the suction cups and bag surface.

 

Program or vacuum valve problems

If the bag-type vacuum solenoid valve has no signal output, the program may be faulty. If the vacuum valve has no positive air pressure, or the solenoid valve is damaged, bag opening can also be affected. Contact the manufacturer to service the program, or disassemble, service, or replace the vacuum solenoid valve.

 

Air tube problems

A blocked air tube can affect bag opening. Maintenance personnel can clear foreign matter inside the air tube to ensure the air path is unobstructed.

Bag material problems

 

High friction resistance, static adsorption, or failure of the slip agent in the bag material can make opening difficult. Examples include high aging temperature, adhesive penetration, and poor film slip. Add antistatic agents and slip agents to the PE film, or replace the bag material with a better quality product that opens more easily.

 

If the methods above do not work, contact professional technicians for repair and inspection.

 

Beyond suction cups, air line fittings, and valve mounting parts for servo bagging machines, our custom precision parts machining capability also covers non-standard parts for food packaging machinery, pharmaceutical packaging equipment, and powder conveying equipment. Hansheng Automation can also machine filling machinery parts, tobacco packaging machinery parts, yacht precision parts, and RC car precision parts according to drawings, supporting drawing-based customization and small-batch delivery.
