The snack food industry requires sanitary standards throughout packaging. Bartelt Packaging systems adhere to these standards to ensure a safe, quality packaging process. Ideal machines for snacks include the MAG Series, the K-Series, and the RPM.
Features on Bartelt equipment include capabilities to package large, stand-up pouches at high speeds. Bartelt works with a wide range of product applications, including product that generates excessive dust. Our machinery has dust control systems to keep product from getting where it shouldn’t be, like in other sections of the machine or in the top seal.
To pack snack pouches, the MAG Series is ideal. This horizontal form fill seal machine features magnetic linear motion technology, which allows for ultimate flexibility and control during the packaging process. Independently controlled double pouch clamps are used to change pouch formats quickly, reduce changeover times, and ensure maximum efficiency.
The K-Series pouching machines are horizontal form fill seal machines featuring precision in each application. Maximum flexibility is achieved with pre-programmed recipe settings, allowing repeatable and reliable product and size changeover. Used for snacks with heavier weight pouches, the servo driven K-Series is reliable and efficient.
For snack pouches requiring a rotary turret horizontal form fill seal system, the RPM is ideal. Available in either simplex or duplex, this pouching machine is designed for snack foods with heavier fill weights and larger pouch sizes. This intermittent motion machine is flexible for a wide range of pouch styles and sizes.
The Bartelt IMC Cartoner is ideal for combining pouches of pudding mix, gummies, snack packs, and more into a multi-pack carton.

This intermittent motion cartoner's design includes a multi-head rotary carton feeder, servo-driven product inserter and servo rotary flap tuckers, providing excellent control at rates up to 60 cycles per minute.
For loading pouches, bags, or sleeves of crackers, pastries, or bars into cartons, the Bartelt CMC Cartoner is a fast, flexible and reliable machine that has all the advantages of full servo control. With operating rates of up to 400 cycles per minute, this solution takes its place in the high-performance class of horizontal, continuous motion cartoning machines.
