Relatively speaking, the advantages of bagging are:
The price is relatively cheaper; 2. There are more kinds of prefabricated bags.
Disadvantages are:
Semi-automatic, requiring more labor; Space is not a closed space, so it is not safe enough for food. For chemical products, it is harmful to the health of operators.
For roll film bag packaging, the opposite is true. The price is slightly higher, and there are not many optional packages; But it is fully automatic, and only a few operators can control the whole line. Space is a closed space, which has good protection for products and operators.
For example, ROVEMA film-rolling and bag-making packaging machine in Germany has a high degree of automation, closed space production and high speed. It's very common in China.
There are many other advantages and disadvantages. For more details, please see ROVEMA official website for more packaging equipment.
