HAMER Brand Model 5525X Form, Fill & Seal (FFS) Packaged Ice Machine
The all-new Ice X Platform combines the proven reliability you trust with design improvements that boost performance, enhance product quality, and reduce maintenance, keeping your operations running smoother than ever.
The first model in this platform, the HAMER Brand Model 5525X ice bagging machine, has been completely re-engineered from the ground up, incorporating proven technologies for superior performance and flexibility. This high-speed, automated system efficiently packages ice in bag sizes from 5 to 25 lbs. on a single machine. For precise, high-speed dosing, the 5525X includes an optional servo-driven volumetric filler, easily adjustable through the HMI, along with a reliable wire tie closure for secure bag sealing.
The recent enhancements to this machine include:
• Powered Pinch Roll Film Unwind – Reduces film tension variability, improving side seal quality and ensuring a steady bagging rate.
• Servo Volumetric Filler – Allows tool-free ice weight adjustments during bagging for seamless, on-the-fly changes.
• Cut and Clamp Side Seal – Offers improved temperature control and quicker heat-up with a user-friendly, easy to set-up design.
