The new Sharp MAX-PRO 18 automatic bagger from the Sharp Packaging business unit of Pregis LLC is especially well-suited for large e-commerce and manufacturing operations with high production volumes, according to the company. “We believe that the Sharp MAX-PRO 18 is the most advanced bagger available and the first with predictive maintenance,” says Sharp Packaging’s director of engineering John Hubert. “It utilizes the Maxwell intelligent interface featured on other Pregis on-demand systems. The diagnostic abilities mean the system is constantly checking data such as run rates and other usage metrics so that it is able to notify a technician that there might be a potential service issue down the road. The ability to send that alert in advance of an actual problem results in no, or minimal, downtime.” Designed for use with 18-inch-wide Sharp E-Z Bags, the bagger also features an intuitive user interface and thermal printing technology for printing barcodes, graphics and alphanumeric fonts directly onto the package.
