In this blog post, we’re reviewing a Closing option in the form of the Fischbein Model F portable bag closer.
The Fischbein Model F Horizontal bag closer is a handheld, portable, industrial sewing machine ideal for small volume (4-8 bags/min.) bag closing applications where the bag is lying flat (horizontal). Weighing only 11 lb., the handheld Model F Horizontal can easily sew multi-wall paper, polypropylene, burlap, and jute bags as well as envelopes and pouches.
The portable F is a new level of excellence in sewing technology. Its robust design works with ease on the bagging line or in the field and its durable non-corrosive epoxy finish will make it last for years.
It is a 1-thread machine that uses a chain stitch to create a secure closure. Ideal for small volume (4-8 bags/min.) bag closing applications, the Model F weighs only 11 lb.
The Fischbein Model F is simple to operate and can be hand-held, mounted on a suspension unit, or on a Fischbein Carriage conveyor. It has an efficient internal oiling system that lubricates all moving parts.
Available F-Series portable bag closing models include: vertical bag sewing, horizontal bag sewing and tape bag sewing. The Model F is also very easy to operate, making it a popular choice for industrial use.
