Types of cloth bag making machines

Using a cloth bag making machine to replace plastic bags is an excellent investment opportunity. Eco-friendly bags made of fabric are in demand, and a bag-making machine can help meet that demand. Several cloth bag-making machines perform different functions when making bags:

  • Automatic Cloth Bag Making Machine

  • Fully Automatic Cloth Bag Making Machine:

    A fully automatic cloth bag machine is massive and complicated but gets production lines up and running. It is fully automatic and can do all the steps, including feeding, stitching, cutting, punching, sewing, grommeting, bag forming, and bag collecting/stacking. The fully automatic machine makes more than the automatic machine, as there are more significant parts and pieces working in tandem together. It could be 10-20,000 pieces a day. Workers will be needed only to monitor the machine. The only manual assistance required is to keep feeding the raw material into the machine.

    The fully automatic machine will have separate motors for each part of the machine that helps stitch and make bags, including zipper bags. A highly efficient conveyor belt will help collect/stack the finished bags at the end, ready to be packed. This is an industrial-level bag-making machine because it is huge, and electricity costs will be high because it consumes a lot of power.

  • Semi-Automatic Cloth Bag Making Machine

    These machines require more manual assistance compared to automatic and fully-automatic machines. While the stitching and bag-making parts are still automated, manual assistance will be required to feed the computational conveyor belts the raw material and manually remove the finished product from the belts to stack them. Semi-automatic machines are marginally smaller than their fully automatic counterparts. They will have a few less complicated motors running a limited number of functions where the material is fed directly to the mouth of the machine to be stitched into a bag.

  • Hand-Made Cloth Bag Making Machine

    Maybe a small cloth bag-making machine or a large one makes no difference; handmade takes the cake. Hand-made bags are more expensive in some cases but are generally not more costly than the machine-made ones because the machines are much faster. All the skill required to make bags by hand is just that - skill. When using a machine, the operator only needs to know how to feed the bag-making material into the machine and monitor it.

    Hand-made bags will have more intricate detail because what the maker lacks in skill is made up for in manual crafting, which is more artful than sewing skill.

  • Non-woven Cloth Bag Making Machine

    Many different kinds of fabric bags are popular. Now, cloth is a sassy little number that is not woven. It needs a non-woven cloth bag-making machine to make it. Non-woven fabrics use fibers directly bonded together, which makes them easier to produce than woven fabrics.

    Non-woven machines will differ from woven ones. An ultrasonic non-woven bag-making machine uses high-frequency electronic oscillation technology to make non-woven bags. The oscillation creates high-temperature sealing wands that precisely and locally heat and melt non-woven materials to form strong and durable seals.

    The ultrasonic method is more efficient, making more bags in a given amount of time. It also reduces energy use and material waste. The machine will have a photoelectric detector that counts how many bags have already been counted in and will stop the counting when it reaches a certain number. The ultrasonic device will have dual temperature controls and digital speed, and tension controls display windows for easy and fast adjustments.

Specification and maintenance of cloth bag making machines

This kind of machine has many features to make it more effective. Here are some main cloth bag-making machine specifications:

  • Production speed: The machine's production speed is 50 to 120 pieces of bags per minute. The speed can depend on the type of bag, machine model, and operator skill level.
  • Power supply: The machine has an AC power of 220V, 1.5 kW, or more. The voltage and power can differ to match the needs of the country or region where the machine is used.
  • Bag types: The machine can produce different types of bags, like non-woven bags, pp woven bags, printing cloth bags, cotton cloth bags, etc.
  • Bag size: The machine specializes in making bags of a particular size range. For example, small to large bags, with lengths between 25 cm and 45 cm, widths between 15 cm and 25 cm, and heights between 25 cm and 50 cm.
  • Fabric material: The machine can work with many fabric materials, such as non-woven polypropylene (PP), woven polypropylene (WPP), polystyrene (PS), recycled non-woven fabric, cotton fabric, polyester fabric, etc.
  • Motor: The machine has a motor that controls the stitching and cutting operations. For example, a 1.5kW/2HP motor with a thread speed of 2,000 to 3,000 hours. Other options also exist, like a clutch motor or an automatic motor.

Maintenance is cleaning and fixing the machine for optimal performance. Machine parts should be checked for any loose or damaged parts. With professional help, replace or tighten those parts to prevent big issues. Oil any parts that move a lot or rub against each other, such as chains and bearings, to reduce friction and wear. Always keep the machine area clean, tidy, and free of dust, waste, or debris. Non-woven bag-making machines are easy to maintain. A small cloth and soapy water can clean the machine to prevent bag debris from building up.

For optimal performance, store the machine in a dry area away from sunlight, rain, or moisture. Avoid high-temperature or cold places. Make sure the machine has enough ventilation and is at least 30 cm away from walls or other objects.

Some parts can be serviced every week or monthly, like belts, threads, and other moved parts. Remove and thoroughly clean them. Apply fresh lubrication before re-installing them on the machine. Other parts should be checked and cleaned every three months or more.

Applications of the Cloth Bag Making Machine

These versatile machines are designed to manufacture cloth bags in bulk. They are used by large-scale bag production companies, mostly located in countries where demand for cloth bags is high. Below are a few examples to better understand where and how bag-making machines are used:

  • Supermarkets: Cloth bag-making machines are used in supermarkets to produce branded shopping bags for customers. Branded cloth bags serve two purposes for supermarkets: they promote the supermarket brand and help market it when the customer uses the bag outside the supermarket premises. Because many customers go to supermarkets to shop, having a branded, reusable, and durable bag is a good marketing strategy.
  • Grocery stores: Similar to supermarkets, grocery stores can produce their own branded cloth bags for customers to use when purchasing products and for advertising purposes.
  • Wholesale merchandisers: Wholesale merchandisers often sell products in large amounts to retailers and end customers. Merchandisers can use cloth bags to package and sell their products, especially if their products are food items that require separate packaging.
  • Retail chains: Retail chains that sell various products directly to consumers can use cloth bags to package sold items, especially if the retail chain sells food items. Retail chains may also have branded cloth bags produced for their retail chain.
  • Custom cloth bag businesses: Some small businesses and start-up companies may have specific requirements for a cloth bag's design, fabric, print, or functionality. These requests must be carefully considered to create a custom bag that meets the needs of the business. This may include producing bags with specific features, such as reinforced handles, zipper closures, or internal pockets.
  • Conference and event organizers: Conference and event organizers often use tote bags to hold promotional materials or giveaways for event attendees. Custom-printed tote bags can serve as a branding tool for the event and be a useful item for participants.
