Welcome
Now that you've decided to upgrade your packaging facilities with the T-300 Table Top Bagger from
Advanced Poly-Packaging, Inc., we thank you for selecting our equipment, materials, and service. Where
labor reduction and fast changeover is important, the T-300 uses Advanced Poly-Bags (pre-opened bags
on rolls), manufactured by Advanced Poly-Packaging, Inc. The T-300 can package various industrial,
medical, molded and food products. With a wide range of bag sizes (2" x 3" (standard frame only) to
11" x 16") and mil thickness (1 mil to 4 mil), we hope the T-300/T-375 will meet all of your bagging
needs. This manual will function as one manual for both machines, if you have purchased the T-300
model, your bagger includes a printer and certain sections of this manual will only pertain to the T-300.

Overview
The T-300 Table Top Bagger is designed to lower your packaging costs with high speeds, versatility,
reliability, and simplicity.
High Speeds - Indexes, opens, seals, and tears off a bag at high speeds. Actual packaging speed is
dependent on the bag size, equipment options, product characteristics and method of loading.
Reliability - Crafted from the highest quality components and materials to withstand the most rigorous
manufacturing environment; sturdy mounts, and rugged frame guarantee long life and usefulness with
minimal maintenance.
Simplicity - A user-friendly menu-driven touch screen program allows operators to setup the bag, options
and auxiliary equipment, save the settings in memory, and recall those settings for repeat runs.

Special Features
Energy Conservation & Component Saver
-
To extend its life and conserve energy in your plant, the
T-300 is programmed to sequentially shut components down when not in use for extended periods.
Electric current to the heater bar will discontinue and place the T-300 in the stop mode during a preset
period of nonuse. Air flow can also be shut off preserving compressed air. Finally, a screen saver is
provided to extend the life of the touch screen.
Predetermined Counter - Preset the T-300 to stop after a predetermined number of bags have been
packaged. Set the quantity of finished bags to complete a work order or fill a shipping container. Once
the work order is complete or the container is full, the T-300 stops to alert the operator to begin the next
work order or to push aside the box to begin filling another. Pressing Reset on the screen resets the
counter and starts the bagging operation with minimum delay.
Totalizing Counter - Reset this counter at the beginning of each shift or day to record packaging
production over a period of time.
Maintenance Counter/Chart - Periodically check this counter (total machine cycles) to determine
preventive maintenance / component inspection intervals for inspection / maintenance criteria and
intervals.
Continuous Strip Option - Leave bags connected in an "endless" strip or a predetermined number of strips
of sealed bags.
Twin Seal Option - Change the sequence of operation to place a second seal on each bag, parallel to the
first, to improve the integrity of the bag.
Communications Port - Allows for auxiliary communications.
