Bagging, Palletizing & Grain Equipment
HS Automation supplies and installs industrial automation equipment for bagging, palletizing, and grain and seed processing lines across North America. We are the exclusive Canadian distributor for TMI bagging and palletizing equipment, Canada’s largest authorized distributor of Fischbein (an nVenia brand) bag closers, an authorized distributor of Fuji Robotics palletizing systems, and a family-run company with more than 100 combined years of experience designing production equipment. Our systems handle bag sizes from 1 KG to 50 KG and throughput rates from a few pounds per hour to several tons per minute, serving manufacturers and processors of flour, sugar, soybeans, wheat, rice, pet food, fertilizer, cake mixes, cement, and other bulk and bagged products.

How We Build Your System
We don’t start a project by handing customers an equipment list — we start by understanding what they’re actually trying to solve. Before we spec a single machine, we look at the product being bagged, the bag style and material, current and target throughput, the physical layout of the facility, and where the line is likely to grow in the next few years. That conversation shapes everything that follows.
From there, we design a system around those specifics rather than fitting the customer into a standard package. Sometimes that means a single piece of equipment added to an existing line — a bag closer replacing a worn-out unit, or a palletizing cell added to the end of a manual operation. Other times it means a complete, integrated system engineered from the ground up: filling, closing, conveying, and palletizing designed to work together as one line instead of a series of separate machines. Either way, the goal is the same — equipment that’s sized and configured for how the customer actually runs their operation, not a generic solution they have to adapt to.
That same approach carries through installation and beyond, with our team providing ongoing parts and technical support so a system stays running the way it was designed to.
Bag Automation
Bagging is the core of what we do, and we supply equipment for every level of automation — from individual manual stations to fully automated bagging lines. As the exclusive Canadian distributor for TMI, our automated bagging lineup covers open mouth, form-fill-seal, and valve bag applications. Open mouth bagging runs on TMI’s ILERSAC series, available in A, L, H, W, S, and R models to match different bag styles, materials, and line speeds. Where the bag itself needs to be formed, filled, and sealed in one automated process, we supply TMI’s ILERBAG series in H, HS, HC, and V configurations. For valve bag operations — common with cement, fertilizer, and other bulk powders — we carry ILERSAC VBF systems, including the VBF ROBOSONIC model for ultrasonic valve bag sealing.
Manual Bagging System
Not every operation is ready for full automation, and we support manual and semi-automated bagging just as thoroughly. That includes gross weigh and net weigh scales for accurate fill weights, plus valve bag and tote bag fillers sized to the product and bag format in use. On the closing side, we’re Canada’s largest authorized distributor of Fischbein (an nVenia brand) bag closers, including the F-Series sewing system, along with glue closers and heat sealers. We also supply the conveyor systems — bag, product, and pallet-handling conveyors — that connect filling, closing, and palletizing into one continuous line. Manual bagging equipment is often where a facility starts before automating in phases, so we design each piece to integrate into a larger automated system later, without having to rip out and replace what’s already on the floor.
Seed Processing
For customers in grain and seed processing, our equipment extends upstream of bagging and palletizing into separation, cleaning, and finishing. That includes gravity separators, Advent cleaners, and Stoner equipment for removing foreign material, the HS polisher for finishing product, and color sorting technology for removing discolored kernels or foreign seeds. We also offer plant design services to lay out processing, bagging, and palletizing as one integrated facility plan.
Dust Collection
Dust generated during handling is managed with pulse jet dust collectors and cyclone systems sized to the facility, keeping product where it belongs for cleaner air and safer combustible-dust handling.
Frequently Asked Questions
What brands does HS Automation distribute?
HS Automation is Canada’s largest authorized distributor of Fischbein (an nVenia brand) bag closers and an authorized distributor of Fuji Robotics palletizing systems, and also distributes TMI bag automation for open mouth, valve and form fill and seal bags.
How does HS Automation decide what equipment a customer needs?
We start by learning the customer’s product, bag style, throughput, and facility layout, then specify equipment around those details rather than selling a fixed package — the same approach whether it’s a single machine or a complete integrated system.
What bag sizes and throughput rates can HS Automation equipment handle?
HS Automation’s equipment handles bag sizes from 1 KG to 50 KG at rates ranging from a few pounds per hour to several tons per minute.
What industries does HS Automation serve?
HS Automation equips manufacturers and processors of flour, sugar, soybeans, wheat, rice, pet food, fertilizer, cake mixes and cement, as well as grain and seed processing facilities.
