Dyco sets the standards as the Industry Leader. Over 250 units in service. Through Dyco's innovative system, achieve speeds up to 3 bags per minute.
Overview
Dyco Auto-Packers accumulate containers into an array and seal the array on all four sides utilizing flat sheet film. The array, now fully sealed in film, is picked up by an automatic stacker and placed on a stack; accumulating multiple bundles on a stack with multiple stack locations. Once the stack is full the operator removes the stack of bundles and resets that stack location.
Operation
Containers infeed on a table-top conveyor or deadslide.
Containers are side-indexed into an accumulation chamber. Square and rectangular containers are accumulated in an in-line array; round containers are nested into the array utilizing a modulating back stop and slice-off counting system for each row.
Once the containers are accumulated into an array, the array is pushed into a wall of sheet type film. As the array is pushed the film wraps around the array and is sealed and separated on the back side of the array forming the wall of film for the next array.
The array, now wrapped in the film on 2 sides, travels down a bundle conveyor to a side sealing position. Once in position the side sealing process begins, which tightens the film around the bundle and seals the sides with a flat type seal leaving a small tail on both sides. After the side sealing cycle is complete and the bundle is sealed on all four sides a gate opens and the sealed bundle travels down the bundle conveyor to a pick up position.
From this position a precision stepper motor driven stacker picks up the bundle, rotates or indexes linearly, and gently places the bundle on a stack. Once a full stack of bundles is accumulated in one of the stack locations a beacon indicator alerts an operator to take away a full bundle stack, the operator then resets that stack location.

The innovative Engineers at Dyco have the solution for your problem. They have successfully created a machine that is currently in production that is able to bag these types of bottles. Traditionally, this is something that hasn't been done automatically.
Benefits:
Bagging eliminates expensive corrugated boxes
Able to move more bottles per shipment (up to 30% more)
Reduce transportation costs by more bottles per shipment and no return shipment of packaging materials.
Improve end user bottle quality by eliminating scratching of bottles that occurs when tumble packing.
Plastic bags are easy to recycle!
