Refurbished Standup Pouch HFFS Bagger – 50% Cost Savings & 7-Month Delivery | SIGMA Integration

A Michigan-based co-manufacturer needed to ramp up production fast to meet a major retail commitment for a new granola product. Their packaging required a stand-up pouch with zipper and nitrogen flush, running at 25 bags per minute. But the OEM’s new-machine lead time, 12–14 months, threatened to halt their launch, and the cost of buying new was nearly double a refurbished solution. SIGMA Integration stepped in with a faster, more cost-effective answer: a pre-owned FL Tecnics Standup Pouch HFFS Bagger already in SIGMA’s inventory. Through our Inventory Improvement Program and expert in-house engineering, the unit was fully rebuilt, retooled, and customized to meet the customer’s exact specifications. In this project overview, the SIGMA team demonstrates how they: • Delivered a complete standup pouch HFFS solution in under 7 months — half the OEM lead time • Saved the customer nearly 50% compared to purchasing new • Upgraded and customized a pre-owned FL Tecnics bagger through full refurbishment • Integrated critical features, including nitrogen flush, zipper applicator, and a custom discharge conveyor • Enabled the customer to reliably run 25 bags per minute and meet their retail production commitment If you’re exploring HFFS pouch systems or need a faster, more flexible alternative to long OEM lead times, this case study shows how SIGMA Integration rebuilds, retools, and reinvents equipment to deliver like-new performance at a fraction of the cost.
