LEMO Film bag machine

Baum��ller engineering specialists have designed a foil bag machine for Lemo, which allows maximum flexibility and fast commissioning.

Loop handle bags, carrying bags with punched handles, plastic grocery bags, bread bags or trash bags. These are just a couple of the examples that can be produced with a film bag machine. Baum��ller received the order from the mechanical engineering company Lemo from Niederkassel to design a new, cost-optimized, efficient and sustainable film bag machine that also affords the manufacturer maximum flexibility and quick commissioning in the production process due to its modular structure. Depending on the end product, the machine operator should then no longer have to purchase more than the necessary machine modules. At the same time, the machine should also achieve optimal version handling for future orders and achieve a higher throughput.

The use of plastic bags is now indispensable in any sector. There's no way past the bulk goods when it comes to transport or re-packaging, no matter whether for food or shipping, hygiene items or disposal. With its economical and innovative systems for producing flexible film packaging, LEMO Maschinenbau GmbH from Niederkassel is one of the world market leaders in this sector.

Baum��ller has already been supplying LEMO with components and assemblies for years. There were several reasons for the decision to have the new film bag machine designed by Baum��ller engineering specialists and also have them completely automated with Baum��ller systems. Baum��ller has been a reliable business partner of LEMO for years and also does well with its many years of interdisciplinary engineering expertise and a multitude of realized tailor-made complete solutions.

Increased efficiency due to an intelligent overall solution

The Baum��ller specialists were able to meet LEMO's desire for modularity and a work cycle increase with the help of a new automatization concept. Among other things, a modern and streamlined drive and control architecture was used for this purpose. This means an integrated fieldbus system, minimum number of devices and a reduced control structure. The control cabinets were optimized and a future-proof communication structure was selected for the software.
