Kwik Lok 1002D Bag Closer
The 1002D semi-automatic bag closing machine is an inexpensive and virtually maintenance free bag
closing machine. This unit closes bags with the economical Series “S” Striplok® plastic closures.
Striploks provide your package with convenient, re-close ability that consumers value. Even
inexperienced operators can reach speeds of 30 bags per minute. To close, twist the bag neck and
insert it into the lok track where the Striplok is applied. Removing the closed bag actuates the mechanism
and pulls the next closure into closing position. The simple maintenance free design does not require
motors, gears and other maintenance-demanding components. As an added value, models are available
that can print price/date information on the plastic closure as the bags are being closed.
Kwik Lok 086 Bag Closer

This unit is similar in design to the 1002D but has the added convenience
of a powered break-off and closure advance. To close, twist the bag neck
and insert it into the lok track where the Striplok is applied, the powered
break-off then separates the Striplok and advances the next closure into
position. As an added value, models are available that can print price/date
information on the plastic closure or closure-label.

market value to your packaged ice by introducing the convenience of a
re-closable product. For an added convenience and market value, an
optional printer can be purchased to imprint coded or marketing
nformation on the clips.
