nVenia HAMER Brand 300VF Reduces Downtime From Older Bagger/Filler Designs
08/12/2010
Using innovative leveling wheel technology and VFD motors, the nVenia HAMER Brand Model 300VF has effectively eliminated traditional down time issues with old leveling chain style filler/baggers used in the Lawn and Garden industry.
Leveling chains have lots of wear parts – sprockets, chains, level flights - that typically require replacement at least once per season, often twice a season. Chains can also stretch and cause bag fill accuracy and downtime issues when they jump off their drive sprockets. By using a leveling wheel built of 1/4″ steel, the 300VF eliminates those downtime issues associated with leveling devices.
Our 300VF also allows for adjustment of level height (something chain style baggers don’t offer) for different products and allows operators to control the speed of their feed belt, speed of the leveling wheel and standard product cut off gate independently.
This means you get accurate bag fills no matter what product you are bagging; soils, compost, and mulches all can be filled quickly and accurately. By eliminating traditional clutch brakes, and instead using VFD controlled motors, the 300VF also eliminates the wear and replacement of clutch brake motors, another source of unwanted down time.
