Since the announcement of their global partnership in bulk packaging in 2019, Swiss Bühler Group and Canadian company Premier Tech are eager to introduce their latest product. With Bühler’s strong footprint and market position in China and Premier Tech’s recognized knowledge in the field of automated packaging technologies, the CHRONOS OML-1060 is the first of many solutions to be developed through this joint venture in creating cost-effective, industrial, flexible packaging solutions.
With the same design and technology utilized in their existing solutions produced in Europe, the new fully automatic OML-1060 packaging solution for the grain, food and feed industries is a more affordable iteration of an existing high-end solution. Manufactured in Premier Tech and Bühler’s joint design and manufacturing center in China, the quality of the solution remains unchanged. The most requested features have been incorporated and requirements of the emerging markets are met, without compromising accuracy or reliability.

The CHRONOS OML-1060 can handle 20 to 50 kg bags at a speed of up to 600 bags per hour.
Its small and compact footprint optimizes floorspace and its lean design eases operation and maintenance. Safety being a priority for both Bühler and Premier Tech, this fully enclosed automatic packaging technology requires very limited operator interaction, enabling better working conditions.
