Plastic Film Bag‑Making Machine

A plastic film bag‑making machine is industrial converting equipment that uses heat sealing and cutting mechanisms to transform plastic film rolls into finished bags of various types — including T‑shirt bags, bags‑on‑roll, coreless rolls, and flat bags — at high speed with precise length control and automatic winding.

CBADEN Machinery Group designs and builds double‑rail and single‑rail bag‑making machines from entry‑level to fully automatic configurations — with independent winders, chip computer control systems, and servo‑driven tension control — for shopping bag, garbage bag, food bag, and biodegradable bag producers worldwide.

Bag‑Making Process Step by Step

The process runs unwind → film guiding → sealing → cutting → stacking/winding — with automatic tension control, temperature regulation, and length counting in between.

01

Unwind & tension control

The film roll is mounted on an unwind stand (max Φ900mm) with automatic tension control to ensure consistent feed into the sealing unit.

02

Film guiding & forming

Film passes through guide rollers and forming boards (for gusseted bags) to create the desired bag shape and fold.

03

Heat sealing

Heat seal bars apply controlled temperature and pressure to create bottom seals or side seals. Independent temperature control per seal bar ensures seal integrity.

04

Cutting

Rotary or guillotine cutting system cuts the film to precise bag length (200–1500mm depending on model).

05

Stacking or winding

Finished bags are either stacked in a collection tray (flat bags) or automatically wound onto a core (bags‑on‑roll) with core diameters of Φ25–60mm.

06

Control & monitoring

Chip computer or PLC control system manages speed, bag length, count, temperature, and fault diagnosis — enabling one‑touch operation.

Bag‑Making Process Step by Step

What a plastic film bag‑making machine does

A plastic film bag‑making machine transforms rolls of plastic film into finished bags through a continuous process of film feeding, heat sealing, cutting, and stacking or winding in one integrated production line.

The machine starts with an unwind stand that feeds film at controlled tension. Film passes through forming guides (for gusseted bags) and sealing bars that apply heat and pressure to create bottom seals or side seals. A rotary or guillotine cutting system then cuts the film to the specified bag length. Finished bags are either stacked in a collecting tray (for flat bags) or automatically wound onto a core (for bags‑on‑roll).

Double‑rail configurations can produce two lanes of bags simultaneously, effectively doubling output. Fully automatic models with independent winders and chip computer control systems enable one‑touch operation, automatic counting, and consistent bag quality across long production runs.

Bag‑Making Machine Applications

Plastic film bag‑making machines supply the finished bags that converters and packaging producers turn into retail shopping bags, grocery bags, produce bags, garbage bags, and food packaging bags.

  • Retail shopping bags — T‑shirt bags with die‑cut handles
  • Produce bags — bags‑on‑roll for fruits, vegetables, and bulk foods
  • Garbage bags — flat bags and bags‑on‑roll for household and commercial waste
  • Food packaging bags — food‑grade bags for bakeries, delis, and takeaway
  • Garment bags — gusseted T‑shirt bags for clothing retail
  • Biodegradable bags — compostable and eco‑friendly bag production

Optional machine components that support production quality — servo‑driven tension control, automatic counting, photoelectric registration, and dual‑winding systems — are available across all models.

How to Choose a Plastic Film Bag‑Making Machine

Match bag type, width, length, film material, speed, and automation level to your production needs — then confirm controls, winding options, and service terms with the manufacturer.

1

Bag type

T‑shirt bags need handle‑forming and hot pin systems; bags‑on‑roll need automatic winding units; gusseted bags need forming boards.

2

Bag size

Specify bag width (80–650mm) and length (200–1500mm) — match to your product range.

3

Film material & thickness

HDPE, LDPE, LLDPE, PP, biodegradable — thickness typically 6–50 microns.

4

Production speed

Target pcs/min or m/min against shift output — double‑rail models offer 2× output.

5

Winding type

Coreless (eco‑friendly, no paper waste) vs. with core (standard retail rolls).

6

Automation & controls

Chip computer control, PLC touch‑screen, automatic counting, and fault diagnosis reduce waste and operator intervention.

7
