Sharp® MAX-PRO 18

Bagging

The MAX-PRO 18 was built from the ground up to reduce downtime through predictive maintenance, easier troubleshooting, and much faster bag and pass-through changeovers. No machine on the market is as advanced as the MAX-PRO 18, and no machine will give you greater uptime on your fulfillment lines.
