As food production volumes increase, packaging teams need equipment that can improve throughput without unnecessarily complicating the production process. The Kwik Lok 088A provides an efficient middle ground between manual bag closing and fully automated packaging equipment, allowing operators to feed products into a reliable closure system while maintaining consistent packaging output.
The Kwik Lok 088A Semiautomatic Bag Closing Machine is a versatile, fixed-speed bag closing system designed for a wide variety of food and produce applications. It can close up to 50 bags per minute in vertical applications and up to 35 bags per minute horizontally, making it one of the higher-throughput semiautomatic options in the Kwik Lok lineup. The 088A can accommodate both medium- and heavy-duty closures without requiring setup changes.
The machine can also run closure-labels with an optional reel assembly, while tabletop and floor-standing configurations provide flexibility for different production environments. Conveyor mounting kits are available for horizontal packaging applications, making the 088A adaptable to changing production requirements.
