BH-60 Series has been upgraded to "Series D"
<Debut of the new standard series BH-60D!>

1/1


The BH-60D Series has now arrived after an extensive review of the BH-60 Series which gained high recognition over a long time. The Series D features higher speed and longer operational life. By reviewing the design in all sections, this bag making machine provides high reliability with first rate quality, easily accommodating high-speed operation, significantly higher than the conventional BH Series.

Tot and Annie, the mascot characters of Totani describe the features of Series D.

Tot Tot Annie Annie

1) What is evolutionary about the Series D?

Annie Tot, where is the D Series different from the conventional BH-60 Series?
Tot The capacity of the main servo motor for the vertical drive in the heater has increased from 3.2KW to 5.0KW. The design was comprehensively reviewed and components have been strengthened providing less deflection in the shaft and link of the vertical drive section.
Annie What advantages has this brought?
Tot

First of all, speeding up. The three-side-sealed bag making machine has now an increased operation speed from 200 bags / min to 240 bags / min. Also the speed has been increased on the three-side-sealed stand pack system from 160 bags / min to 200 bags / min. Increasing the speed in these two functions is a major advantage.

Detailed design reviews resulting in a change of components have also been carried out, in order to accommodate increased bag production, with an increase in the thickness of the heater block and cooling plate to enable more efficient heating and cooling. In addition, the roller configuration has also been changed to lightweight carbon to decrease the inertia of the dancer roller.

Annie What are the advantages of a design review of the vertical drive?
Tot Increasing the strength of components has achieved a longer operation life of the machine. Also the frequency of component replacement is less in products with a long operation life. From the view of customers, it reduces cost in the long term. Products like this, with a long operation life bring a lot of advantages, especially in an improvement in productivity. This can lead to a reduction in labor for maintenance owing to high durability as well as maintaining high-speed operation for long hours.
Annie I see!

2) Design and appearance modifications for improved operation, laborsaving, hygiene and safety

Annie By the way Tot, you can see the appearance of machine has significantly changed, hasn't it?
Tot Exactly. The green cover has been totally changed to stainless steel (SUS). The green color was described as the theme color of Totani.
Annie What is the reason?
Tot In the event of accidentally hitting tools on the machine, the paint may come off with a conventional painted finish. Stainless steel eliminates this concern and facilitates easy cleaning. Modification of the finish meets one request about safety and hygiene from users.
Annie I can see less surface wiring.
Tot Not only wiring but also the cooling pipes are now all contained within the main frame. It is really neat and tidy. I would like other people to actually look at the old and new machine to compare it.
Annie Has the large box alongside the main machine gone?
Tot

You mean the electrical box, don't you? It is also stored inside the main frame. This modification contributes to an improvement in operation as access becomes easier from the other side of the machine. High-speed serial connection, an innovative development by Totani has reduced the amount of electrical wiring. Expandability has been improved to easily increase additional servo motors, sensors and peripheral devices.

Annie There is another advantage in addition to a tidy box layout, isn't there?
Tot Integration of utility ports for electricity, air and water that were individually laid out in the conventional machine has been improved for usability operation. Another major modification is the lowered height of the frame around the vertical heater. Reliability and maintainability have also been enhanced to facilitate replacement of the seal rubber or rubber platform in the lower part of the vertical heater.
Annie I see. You mean, many reviews for usability have been applied, in addition to speeding up of the machine.
Tot Correct. The price of the machine, however, remains the same. The cost is reduced with less necessary replacement of components and maintenance, so it leads you to substantial cost reduction in the long term. This effort for cost reduction has therefore improved price performance.
Annie Through increased speed, longer operation life and a freeze on sales price, clearly focuses on the users of the machine. Now, I would like other people look at our range of machines.
Model type Series D
3 types of the main frame are available as follows:
1) 3,060mm frame (Specification for 2 deflection shafts): BH-60D
2) 3,560mm frame (Specification for 3 deflection shafts): BH-60DL
3) 4,300mm frame (Specification for 4 deflection shafts): BH-60DLL

Just the same as used in earlier machines, alphabet S will be attached to indicate the machine is equipped with a stand pack system; C will designate machines equipped with a zipper unit.

Example: The model type with a main frame 3,560mm including a stand pack system and zipper unit is <BH-60DLSC>.
Replace<HVLL>the product code for conventional machines to <D> to find the equivalent machine type.
