Bulk Loading Systems
Erie Technical Systems Inc. manufactures standard and custom bulk packaging equipment for industrial applications such as filling bulk bags (FIBC’s), bulk boxes, bulk totes, and bulk drums - all on the same machine. The models range from low-cost, manually operated bulk filling to fully automatic conveyor based bulk filling systems. Several models of the line are shown below.
The ValuMAX®
The ValuMAX® bulk bag filler from Erie Technical Systems Inc. is a low cost and simple bulk bag filler in heavy duty structural steel construction. It is designed to be an inexpensive solution and easy to use. The ValuMAX® bulk bag filler features a 2-post design open in the front for quick removal of the bulk bag by a forklift. The bulk bag straps are supported by two adjustable arms and the bag will sit on a pallet for removal.
ValuMAX® bulk bag filling system adjusts in minutes for bulk bag sizes from 35” wide x 35” deep x 35” tall up to 48” wide x 48” deep x 55” tall. The ValuMAX® bulk bag filler frame supports up to 2,500 pounds of product and, although low-cost, many manual options are available such as an integral weigh scale; a manual, pneumatic or electric slide gate valve; and a product surge hopper.

DensiMAX™ Bulk Bag/FIBC
The DensiMAX™ Bulk Filling Stations fill, vibrate and weigh bulk bags, FIBC’s, IBC’s, bulk boxes, bulk totes or bulk drums. The DensiMAX™ Bulk Bag Filling Station is a semi-automated Bulk Filling Station that features PLC control. The level of automation for the bulk filling system will be dependent on the options selected when specifying the machine.
When filling FIBC’s, IBC’s, bulk boxes, bulk totes or other types of bulk containers the system uses information from the scale to control many of the features of the machine, cutting the fill time per container. These heavy-duty systems are among the best available today, offering great value and durability.
