Overview
The FAS SPrint Revolution packaging machine brings new levels of speed and versatility to demanding, high-productivity environments that require daily wash-down procedures.
Operating at speeds up to 900 inches per minute, this state-of-the-art system offers maximum flexibility, functionality and reliability for food bag packaging.
This unique food grade packaging system presents a conveyor of pre-opened plastic bags that are staged for immediate loading. The 60″ wide load area features a 6″ pass-through, and tilts vertically for easy maintenance and sanitation. An innovative Coordinated Motion Seal Flattener is coupled with a band sealing system to ensure high quality, airtight, 3/8″ bag seals. The SPrint SidePouch bagger operates in continuous, intermittent or batch modes, and cycles on pre-set parameters, or manually with a footswitch. This highly flexible design accommodates one or more operators or infeeds and a wide variety of products and bag sizes.
An integrated Allen-Bradley® control package, featuring Kinetix® Servo motors and drives, a CompactLogix™ L45 PLC, and a large, 10″ PanelView Plus HMI, is designed for ease of operation, serviceability, integration, and overall system reliability. A simple flash card programs all of the components. The AutoTouch Control Software displays real time productivity data and provides easy access to job storage, job recall and on-board system diagnostics.
System-matched SidePouch plastic poly bags provide optimum performance, and offer a variety of special features, such as reclosable zipper bags, gussets, reinforced headers, tamper-evident perforations and more. SidePouch bags are pre-made and fan-folded in a box, eliminating the need for costly machine modifications to utilize their value-added features.
These bags can be pre-printed in up to 10-colors with high-resolution graphics for unique, attractive food packaging with a competitive edge. In addition, an AL 3000P stand-alone thermal printer or third-party printer can be easily integrated to print additional graphics, text and barcodes directly on the bag, eliminating the need for a labeling system.

Frequently Asked Questions
Food applications for the AUTOBAG® FAS SPrint food pouch system are fresh and frozen foods, meat/poultry/fish and meat by-products, fresh produce, portion-pack foods, snack foods, and pet foods and treats. The large loading area and conveyor-controlled motion make this system ideal for quick and easy creation of food multipacks.
Industrial applications for the AUTOBAG® FAS SPrint bagging system include individual or kit packaging for all types of pieces, parts, and components from toys to hardware, automotive to electronics, from beauty products to healthcare items and more.
Food packaging and packaging equipment are considered “food contact substances” that must comply with FDA Guidelines for Food Contact. FDA regulations for food packaging ensure the equipment and materials do not create a human health hazard or change the taste, smell, or composition of the food.
Food safety starts with rigorous hygiene. We choose food-contact-safe stainless steel (at least 16% chromium content) for food contact surfaces in our AUTOBAG® food-grade and CRYOVAC® packaging equipment, because it meets FDA regulations, resists corrosion, and can withstand the rigors of extensive and regular washdown.
