Claim 14:
15. The robotic system as recited in claim 14, wherein the bagging system comprises:
a base;
a vertical plate attached to and extending upward from the base;
two rails on the vertical plate;
a vertically adjustable slider mounted on the two rails;
a vertical mast having a bottom end and a top end, the bottom end being mounted to the vertically adjustable slider;
a horizontal pole mounted on the vertical mast proximate the bottom end of the vertical mast, the pole being adapted for supporting a roll of thermoplastic mesh bagging material;
a cylindrical bag shaper mounted on the vertical mast above the horizontal pole, the cylindrical bag shaper having a frustoconical lower portion for guiding the thermoplastic mesh bagging material around the cylindrical bag shaper and a hole defined therein;
a circular guide for maintaining the thermoplastic mesh bagging material in close proximity to the cylindrical bag shaper
two electrically driven bagging material advancing belts for pulling the thermoplastic mesh bagging material upward, and
a vertical welder having:
a first heated roller mounted within the cylindrical bag shaper and extending through the hole in the cylindrical bag shaper; and
a second heated roller mounted on the vertical mast in alignment with the first heated roller to weld two edges of the bagging material together as the material advancing belts pull the thermoplastic mesh bagging material upward.
