CULTIVATION AND TECHNOLOGY The BOK Partnership replaces complete bagging line The new weigher in the bagging line has a weighing tolerance of 20 grams. The old machine could still deviate by 500 grams. All desired weights can be entered in the computer quickly and easily with the computer of the weighing machine according to Henk Keen. The state-of-the-art Pro-Pack sewing line, the BagmasterJN, also has a large capacity and, at seven hundred bags an hour, is even bigger than that of the weigher. ‘If an order comes in today at a merchant house, they like to have it ready for shipping that same day. This requires a big investment in packaging machines, which can never be made profitable for individual seed potato growers,’ Henk Keen explains. The palleting machine is also state-of-the-art and both stacks and wraps. According to Keen, it can process 26 bags per minute. 26 Potato World 2011 • number 3 Pagina 25
