As you well know I am not a user but it will be on display at the ISS Long Beach Show next week. If you are attending stop by and run it yourself. It's fairly new so there are less than 20 users that have them and I am not aware of anyone on here that has one.

Can't help there but we were close to getting that and the UPA-II auto labeling system last year.  I will be in Long Beach next week and we will check it out again.  It makes financial sense for us to buy it but space has become an issue and there is some equipment I would rather wait for a new building until we get it (not necessarily this equipment but it would extend the bagging operation by over 10 feet).

Yes I used one for a short time and we'll say it's the bee's knees. it takes two people to run the entire machine vs. 3. The giant roll of bags that feeds into the self loading mechanism is leaps above the old stuff and push method. No more backups of shirts on the rollers as when the bagger jams, it sends a signal to the folder to stop and vise versa.
It's a worthy upgrade for sure.
