Automatic Ice
Automatic Ice - Ice Bag Baling Equipment
The baling of individual ice bags into master-pack bales can cut distribution cost by reducing time in deliveries. Master-pack bales can also reduce manufacturing cost by reducing the number of operators required in packaging. AIS can help your company integrate baling into your new or existing operation.

Hamer Bale-A-Matic
The Hamer Bale-A-Matic lets you easily put small bags into one large baling bag. Simply hang your baler bag on this device and it will hold it open for easy loading of ice bags. The Bale-A-Matic is spring powered; no electrical or pneumatic power is required. Just press a foot pedal to load the bag. Releasing the pedal automatically holds the bag open. Press the foot pedal again, and the bag is released. Using the foot pedal frees the operator’s hands to properly position the bag. This simple load and release system makes it easy for your operator to speed up production. The Bale-A-Matic is available with single point loading or three point loading on a swivel stand and can handle baling bags up to 20” wide and between 29” to 48” long
