Laos RGV Automated Material Transfer

An intelligent logistics hub for fully automated ton-bag packaging lines, enabling automated and precise transfer of ton bags between workstations. It is equipped with seven types of conveyors that can be modularly configured to suit the workshop layout and process requirements, seamlessly integrated with packaging mainframes, bag-stacking and shaping machines, strapping machines, film-wrapping machines, automated storage and retrieval systems, and AGV carts. The entire system is controlled via PLC programming, with reversible operation and variable-frequency speed control. It features collision-avoidance devices, misalignment detection, and audible–visual alarms. A lithium-battery-industry-specific version strictly prohibits the use of copper- or zinc-containing materials, making it ideally suited to the logistics handling needs of cleanrooms and automated workshops.

Introduction to Ton-Bag Packaging Production Line – Chain/Chain-Plate Conveyor

I. Purpose of the Equipment

In fully or semi-automatic ton-bag (bulk bag) packaging production lines, chain or chain-plate conveyors are primarily used to support and transport both full and empty ton bags, enabling continuous processing of operations such as bag loading, weighing, filling, sealing, conveying, and pre-staging prior to palletizing—making them well-suited for packaging applications involving heavy, bulky materials.

II. Structural Features

1. With strong load-bearing capacity, the system employs heavy-duty chains and thickened chain plates, enabling stable support for 500–2,000 kg bulk bags while ensuring smooth operation without sagging or collapse.
2. The chain plate operates stably and reliably, with tight fitting and minimal gaps, ensuring that ton bags are placed evenly without getting stuck or deviating from the intended path—making it ideal for heavy-load continuous operations.
3. Durable materials: commonly used carbon steel with powder coating or stainless steel, offering excellent wear resistance and impact resistance, suitable for applications involving dust, particulates, and chemical powders.
4. Modular design allows for on-demand extension in length, width, and height, and can be equipped with features such as lifting, speed control, positioning stops, and weighing supports.
5. The simple chain tensioning mechanism is adjustable, easy to disassemble and clean, and well-suited for long-term continuous production in factories.

III. Workflow

Empty bags or ton bags are fed onto the conveyor → conveyed smoothly to the packaging station → weighed and filled → sealed → conveyed to the buffer/palletizing area → completing the automated flow of the entire production line.

IV. Applicable Scenarios

• Conveyor system for ton-bag packaging machines
• Building materials, chemicals, grain, feed, mineral powder, and granular materials
• Conveying heavy-weight, large-size packaging bags
• Automated packaging production lines, unmanned workshops

V. Summary of Advantages

• Heavy-load stability, resistant to deformation
• Adjustable conveyor speed to match the packaging rhythm.
• Low failure rate and long service life
• Can be integrated with weighing, bag-sewing, and palletizing equipment to achieve full-line automation.

Technical Parameters (General Core Parameters)

Basic Configuration

Carbon steel frame with powder coating, 304 stainless steel or rubber-coated conveyor components, variable-frequency drive motor, PLC control module, positioning sensors, anti-collision devices, audible and visual alarm system, emergency stop switch, AGV–automated storage and retrieval system integration interface, and copper- and zinc-free connectors specially designed for lithium batteries.

Main Functions

• Modular Transfer: Seven major conveyor modules can be combined in various configurations to accommodate different workshop layouts and process requirements.
• Automated integration: Seamless coordination with all line equipment, AGVs, and automated storage and retrieval systems to enable end-to-end intelligent transfer of ton bags.
• Precise Positioning: High-precision positioning sensors deliver a transfer positioning accuracy of ±5 mm, ensuring precise docking at each workstation.
• Variable-frequency speed control: conveyor speed is adjustable from 5 to 15 m/min, accommodating different production line operating speeds.
• Safety Protection: Equipped with anti-collision devices, limit switches, and emergency stop switches; in the event of an abnormal condition, audible and visual alarms are triggered and the machine is shut down.
• Forward/Reverse Function: The conveyor line supports both forward and reverse operation, facilitating the return of non-conforming products and equipment commissioning.
• Lithium-battery-specific: copper- and zinc-free connectors to prevent magnetic contaminants from entering, thereby meeting the high-purity requirements of lithium batteries.
