ADM-DPX3 Large Premade Bag Filler
The ADM-DPX3 Large Premade Bag Filler is designed for producers packaging larger bag formats across industries such as pet food, animal stock feed, agricultural products and bulk food ingredients. Built for reliable handling of heavy bags, the system automates the process of opening, filling and sealing premade bags while maintaining consistent production performance.
The machine operates using a three-stage process similar to the ADM-DP3 series, separating bag feeding, filling and sealing into dedicated stations. This staged architecture allows stable bag handling and efficient product filling, particularly when working with heavier products or larger bag formats.
An integrated bag magazine capable of holding up to 200 bags (optional) ensures continuous operation and reduces the frequency of operator intervention. This improves overall line efficiency and allows the machine to maintain stable production speeds during extended runs.
The ADM-DPX3 can also be configured with date coding printers or label applicators, allowing product identification and traceability information to be applied directly during the packaging process.
Designed as part of an integrated packaging line, the ADM-DPX3 connects easily with weighing systems, conveyors, inspection equipment, case packing and palletising systems, allowing producers to scale their automation while maintaining efficient production flow. For applications requiring larger formats, the system can be configured for extended bag sizes and heavier bag weights up to 30 kg, providing additional flexibility for demanding industrial packaging environments.
ADM-DPX3 Series
The ADM-DPX3 Large Premade Bag Filler is a heavy-duty packaging system engineered for producers requiring reliable automation when handling large premade bags and higher product weights. Designed and manufactured in Australia, the machine has been developed to deliver stable bag handling, robust construction and dependable long-term performance in demanding production environments such as pet food, animal stock feed, agricultural products and bulk food ingredients.
The system is capable of packaging bags from 1 kg through to 20 kg as standard, with optional configurations available for heavier bag weights up to 30 kg and extended bag dimensions where required. The machine accommodates bag widths from 200 mm to 550 mm and bag lengths between 300 mm and 800 mm, allowing flexibility across a wide range of large bag packaging applications.
The ADM-DPX3 follows ADM’s proven three-stage operating architecture, separating bag feeding, filling and sealing into dedicated stations. This staged approach ensures accurate bag positioning and stable handling throughout the process, which is particularly important when working with larger bags and heavier product loads.
Product filling can be achieved using either a weighing system or an auger filler, allowing the machine to handle both free-flowing products and powdered materials. This flexibility enables producers to package a broad range of products including pet food, stock feeds, grains, seeds and agricultural products, while maintaining accurate filling performance.
To support the transportation of larger and heavier bags, the ADM-DPX3 incorporates servo-driven belt conveyors designed to stabilise the bag during filling and sealing. These conveyors help maintain controlled bag movement while protecting both the product and the packaging material throughout the process.
All machine motion and drive systems are fully servo driven, utilising state-of-the-art motors and automation components to deliver precise and reliable operation across the machine. ADM partners with leading technology suppliers represented in Australia, ensuring access to proven industrial technology while providing customers with local technical support, spare parts availability and long-term service confidence.
With its robust construction, flexible filling capability and scalable automation design, the ADM-DPX3 is built to integrate easily with weighing systems, conveyors, inspection equipment and palletising systems, allowing producers to develop complete automated packaging lines for large bag applications.

The ADM-DPX3 Large Premade Bag Filler is designed for packaging larger bag formats across a wide range of industries where reliable handling of heavier bags and consistent filling performance are required.
Typical applications include:
• Pet food and dry kibble
• Animal stock feeds
• Agricultural products such as grains and seeds
• Fertiliser and soil additives
• Bulk food ingredients
• Protein powders and dairy powders
• Grains, cereals and dry blends
The machine is well suited to applications where producers require premade bag presentation combined with automated filling and sealing, while maintaining safe and stable handling of medium to heavy bag weights within an integrated packaging line.
Detailed Application
Example 1- Agricultural product for 20kg bag
An agricultural producer packaging 20 kg bags of wheat seed may use the ADM-DPX3 Large Premade Bag Filler integrated with a net weighing system to achieve accurate filling and stable bag handling.
Premade bags are loaded into the machine’s high-capacity bag magazine, which can hold 100-200 bags, allowing the system to run continuously for extended production periods. The ADM-DPX3 automatically feeds and opens each bag before positioning it at the filling station.
The weighed product is discharged into the bag while the servo-driven lower conveyors support the bag structure, ensuring controlled handling of the heavier filled bags. Once filled, the bag proceeds to the sealing stage where it is securely sealed before being transferred to downstream conveying and palletising equipment.
Operating at speeds of 8–12 bags per minute depending on product flow characteristics, the ADM-DPX3 enables agricultural producers to automate the packaging of seeds, grains and similar bulk products, improving production efficiency while reducing manual bag handling and maintaining consistent pack quality.
Example 2- Kibble Petfood 10-15kg
A pet food manufacturer producing 10 kg and 15 kg bags of dry kibble may use the ADM-DPX3 Large Premade Bag Filler as part of an automated packaging line. Product is delivered to the machine via an upstream conveyor and accurately portioned using a multihead weighing system before being discharged into the premade bags.
The ADM-DPX3 automatically feeds bags from the high-capacity 100-200 bag magazine, opens the bag and positions it at the filling station. The weighed product is then discharged into the bag while the servo-driven lower conveyors support and stabilise the bag during the filling process. Once filled, the bag is transferred to the sealing station where it is securely sealed before being conveyed to downstream inspection and palletising equipment.
Operating at speeds of 10–12 bags per minute depending on product and bag size, the system enables the manufacturer to significantly reduce manual bag handling while maintaining reliable production throughput and consistent pack presentation. Integrated with conveyors and robotic palletising, the ADM-DPX3 forms part of a fully automated packaging line designed to handle large bag formats safely and efficiently.
