Dark Horse

Our Workhorse - Large Bags, Large Capability

Up to 180 Bags per minute
Dark Horse

Overview

The Dark Horse is our flagship vertical form fill seal bagger — engineered to be the dependable core your entire line is built around, running up to 180 bags a minute. It handles bags across a wide range of sizes, so a single machine covers products you’d otherwise need several to run.

Clean, consistent seals mean fewer rejects and less waste, and its heavy-duty aluminum and stainless steel construction keeps it moving shift after shift. A full servo cross seal with twin pull belts, a low-inertia dancer for precise tracking, and an automatic edge guide keep every bag square and sealed at speed — with your choice of a 16 in. or 19 in. vertical seal and press or clap sealing.

Best of all, it delivers the quality and reliability of premium American machinery at unbeatable prices — an investment that pays for itself in output, uptime, and peace of mind, backed by the same US-based team that designed and built it in American Fork, Utah.
