Description

This type of packaging system takes its name from its “carousel” shape.
In the textile industry and in particular in the recovery of used clothing, the first stage of processing involves opening the bags of clothing; once the garments have been removed from the bags, they are manually thrown onto the first flat conveyor which in turn unloads the product onto the upward conveyor.
At this point, used clothing will fall into a bale hanging on special supports positioned on a revolving carousel with four positions for bales.
The material will be weighed and, once it reaches the first pre-set weight, the first pressing will start. After having carried out the first pressing, the garments will fall again into the bale until it reaches the final weight and the final pressing will be made.
Once the pressing is complete, the carousel will rotate 90 degrees until another bale is brought into position under the press. Full bales are tied and removed from the supports.
The goal of the carousel packaging machine is the reduction of space, the reduction of working times and costs, and the ultimate and most important goal: an increase in production.
