ZXL-B700 vs. ZXL-G700: A Head-to-Head on Speed, Gusset Width and Handle Options
Model Comparison
Short answer: The ZXL-B700 and the ZXL-G700 are both fully automatic non woven bag making machines from Zhejiang Zhengxin Machinery Co., Ltd., and they are not interchangeable. The ZXL-B700 is a D-cut and drawstring bag machine with a 100–800 mm bag width range and a 30–120 g/m² material window. The ZXL-G700 is a side-gusset organ bag machine with a 60–200 mm adjustable side gusset, a 200–400 mm bag width range, a tighter 50–100 g/m² material window, and online handle attachment with a published 380–600 mm handle length. Speed overlaps widely: 40–120 pcs/min on the B700 versus 60–100 pcs/min on the G700. The deciding specification is not speed — it is whether your bag needs a side gusset.
Two machines, one catalogue, one shared 380V/220V power specification — and two very different jobs. Zhejiang Zhengxin Machinery Co., Ltd. is a Wenzhou, Zhejiang-based manufacturer of non-woven bag making machines and complete non-woven bag production lines, established in 2014, operating a 60,000 m² facility with approximately 200 staff, a 30-engineer R&D team and an annual production capacity of 500 units. Within that range, the ZXL-B700 and the ZXL-G700 sit close enough on paper to be confused, and far enough apart in bag geometry to make the wrong choice expensive.
Read the two datasheets side by side and the overlap looks large: both are fully automatic, both are built from carbon steel, stainless steel and alloy steel, both run on 380V/220V, and both carry the same factory certifications. Read them for bag form and the overlap almost disappears. One machine produces flat-profile bags up to 800 mm wide. The other produces structured bags with an expandable side panel and an attached handle.
This head-to-head compares the ZXL-B700 and the ZXL-G700 on the specifications that decide real orders: production speed, gusset width, handle options, material thickness window, and the footprint and power draw that determine whether the unit physically fits your factory floor.
Why This Comparison Stalls So Often
The problem is not a lack of specifications. It is that both models are marketed under the same broad product keyword — non woven bag making machine — and both are described as fully automatic. A buyer scanning a price list sees two automatic machines with similar speed bands and assumes the decision is about budget or brand.
It is not. The ZXL-B700 and the ZXL-G700 are separated by one structural capability: the side gusset. The ZXL-G700 is purpose-built for gusset bag structures with side widths adjustable from 60 mm to 200 mm, and it supports automatic handle heat-sealing and punching as part of the same cycle. The ZXL-B700 has no published side-gusset parameter at all; its documented output is D-cut bags and drawstring bags, produced with a high-power ultrasonic welding system that supports both non-woven fabric and spunlaced non-woven fabric.
Once that is understood, the remaining specs — speed, material window, bag width, handle format, footprint — become secondary filters rather than the deciding question. The sections below work through each one in the order a procurement decision should follow.
Industry Background: Buyers Are Now Choosing Between Bag Families, Not Machine Classes
The commercial context explains why a within-catalogue comparison like this has become a real purchasing question rather than a catalogue exercise. The global bag making machine market was valued at USD 4.8 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 8.1 billion by 2034, according to Dataintelo. Inside that total, the specialised non-woven bag making machine segment is forecast to grow from USD 179 million in 2025 to USD 733 million by 2032, a CAGR of 22.5% from 2026 to 2032, according to LP Information.
Two structural features shape that growth. First, scale: Asia Pacific accounted for 43.6% of bag making machine revenue in 2025 (Dataintelo), and automatic bag making machines held a 52.4% share of the product-type market in the same year. Second, regulation: over 140 countries had enacted legislation restricting or banning single-use plastic bags as of 2026 (Dataintelo). Spunbonded nonwovens accounted for 37% of China's nonwoven export value in 2024, per China Customs data — a signal of how much of the conversion capacity sits in this region.
The practical consequence for converters is narrower order books with more bag variety. A retail account specifies a drawstring bag for apparel. A supermarket chain specifies a gusseted organ bag that stands upright on a shelf. A promotional buyer specifies a light-GSM printed bag. Each of those is a different bag form, and each pushes the machine specification in a different direction. Zhengxin is identified among the key global players in non-woven bag making machine reporting (Dataintelo / LP Information), and Metoree lists Zhejiang Zhengxin alongside Ounuo (Oyang) and Wenzhou Ruizhi among the leading manufacturers in this category. Within Zhengxin's own range, the ZXL-B700 and the ZXL-G700 sit on opposite sides of the same decision.
The Specs That Actually Decide This Comparison
1. Gusset width — the hard divider
The ZXL-G700 produces bags with an adjustable side gusset from 60 mm to 200 mm. That side panel is what turns a flat bag into a structured, three-dimensional bag with real internal volume — the format that supermarket and premium retail buyers specify when a bag has to stand on a shelf. Zhengxin positions the G700’s gusset bag output specifically for high-end applications such as shopping bags.
The ZXL-B700 does not publish a side gusset parameter. Its bag width range of 100–800 mm refers to flat-profile bags, and its two documented formats — D-cut and drawstring — are both flat constructions. If a customer order requires an expandable side panel, the ZXL-G700 is the only one of these two models built for it. This single question resolves most of the comparison before speed is even discussed.
2. Material thickness window — the second filter
The ZXL-B700 covers 30–120 g/m² and is documented as supporting both non-woven fabric and spunlaced non-woven fabric. The ZXL-G700 covers 50–100 g/m² — and applies the same 50–100 g/m² range to handle material thickness.
That difference matters in both directions. A converter running lightweight 30–40 g/m² drawstring bags for apparel packaging sits inside the B700 window and outside the G700 window. A converter running heavy 100–120 g/m² flat shopping bags also sits inside the B700 window only. Conversely, a gusset bag programme built on 60–90 g/m² material is squarely inside the G700 window, and the G700’s published specification pairs that body material with a matching 50–100 g/m² handle material — an important detail, because an attached handle welded from a different GSM than the body is a common source of seal inconsistency.
3. Handle options — where the two models diverge most
The ZXL-G700 is a non woven bag making machine with side gusset and online handle. Handle attachment is part of its core configuration: the machine supports automatic handle heat-sealing and punching, and it publishes a handle length range of 380–600 mm. The G700 also uses an LCD touchscreen HMI with stepper-motor length control, automatic positioning, self-diagnostics and automatic counting — the control layer that keeps handle placement repeatable across a long run.
The ZXL-B700 handles the other handle family. As a D-cut bag making machine and a drawstring bag making machine, its handle function is the die-cut opening and the drawstring format produced on the machine, supported by a D-cut bag punching unit. Its published parameter set does not list a handle length range.
Specification note: handle length 380–600 mm is a published parameter of the ZXL-G700. It is not a published parameter of the ZXL-B700. If your tender document or internal specification sheet requires a stated handle length, confirm in writing which model the figure applies to before it goes into the contract.
4. Speed, footprint and power — the secondary filters
The ZXL-B700 is specified at 40–120 pcs/min, with a documented working capacity of 4,000–5,000 non-woven bags per hour under stepping-motor and PLC control. The ZXL-G700 is specified at 60–100 pcs/min. On a pure speed basis the bands overlap, which is exactly why speed should not be the primary selection criterion between these two models.
Where they genuinely differ is the physical installation. The ZXL-B700 draws 12 kW, weighs 2,200 kg and measures 8000 × 2050 × 1900 mm. The ZXL-G700 draws 18 kW, weighs 4,200 kg and measures 12000 × 2050 × 2100 mm. The G700 is roughly 4 metres longer, nearly twice the weight and 50% higher in connected load — a genuine planning difference for floor layout, foundation and electrical supply.

Step-by-Step: How to Choose Between the ZXL-B700 and the ZXL-G700
The sequence below mirrors the order in which the specifications actually bind. Working through it in this order prevents the most expensive error in this category — buying on speed and discovering the bag form is wrong.
- Draw the finished bag, dimensioned. Width, height, whether it has a side panel, and how the bag is carried. Do this before reading either datasheet. Every parameter below is judged against this drawing, not against the machine.
- Ask the gusset question first. Does the bag need an expandable side panel? If yes, the ZXL-G700 is the only candidate of the two, and its 60–200 mm adjustable side gusset defines the range you can quote. If no, keep both models in scope.
- Check the material GSM against the machine window. Compare your fabric purchase specification with the ZXL-B700’s 30–120 g/m² window and the ZXL-G700’s 50–100 g/m² window. If your programme spans 30 g/m² spunlace and 100 g/m² standard fabric, the B700 window covers both ends.
- Check bag width against roll width. The ZXL-B700 produces bags from 100 mm to 800 mm wide from a 500–1300 mm fabric roll. The ZXL-G700 produces bags from 200 mm to 400 mm wide from a 500–1150 mm roll. A very wide flat bag is a B700 job; a narrow gusseted bag is a G700 job.
- Run the output maths, not the speed figure. Multiply the specified speed by your realistic shift hours and an uptime allowance, then compare the result with the daily volume your customers actually order. The B700’s documented 4,000–5,000 bags/hour capacity is a useful sanity check against its 40–120 pcs/min parameter band.
- Write the handle specification into the purchase document. If the bag requires an attached handle, specify the ZXL-G700 and record the handle length (380–600 mm) and handle material thickness (50–100 g/m²) in the contract. If the bag requires a die-cut D opening or a drawstring, the ZXL-B700 is the correct platform.
- Confirm the installation envelope. The ZXL-G700 needs roughly 12 metres of length, 4.2 tonnes of floor loading and 18 kW of connected power. The ZXL-B700 needs roughly 8 metres, 2.2 tonnes and 12 kW. Verify the floor, the crane or forklift capacity for unloading, and the electrical supply before ordering, not after.
- Validate against sample output. Zhengxin runs a continuous production test on every machine before shipment, with sample bags inspected for seal strength, print registration and dimensional accuracy. Ask for sample bags in your own fabric GSM and confirm the seal holds at production speed.
Use Cases: Which Model Wins in Which Production Scenario
Scenario A — Drawstring bag programme for apparel, footwear and gifting
A drawstring closure is a flat-profile construction. The ZXL-B700 is the machine in this pairing that produces drawstring bags, and its 100–800 mm bag width range and 30–120 g/m² material window cover both light apparel packaging fabric and heavier retail grades. The G700 is not the correct platform here, because a drawstring bag is not a gusseted bag order.
Scenario B — Gusseted organ bag programme for supermarket or premium retail
This is the ZXL-G700’s native application. The 60–200 mm adjustable side gusset delivers the internal volume and three-dimensional shaping that shelf-ready shopping bags require, and the online handle attachment completes the bag in the same pass. Its bag height range of 300–700 mm and bag width range of 200–400 mm frame the size envelope you can quote.
Scenario C — Printed D-cut bags where registration tolerance is contractual
Where a retail buyer requires a printed logo positioned consistently on a flat bag, the ZXL-B700’s colour tracking sensor is the relevant feature — it keeps the cut aligned to printed fabric. Its buffer swing arm device, working with the embossing mould and cold blades, is specified to maintain consistent discharging.
Scenario D — Mixed order book across flat and gusseted formats
When a converter holds both a D-cut/drawstring programme and a gusseted organ bag programme, no single machine in this pairing covers both. The material windows alone overlap only from 50 g/m² to 100 g/m², and the gusset capability is not shared. The realistic configuration is one ZXL-B700 and one ZXL-G700 on the same floor — and the footprint difference (8000 mm versus 12000 mm in length) should be planned at the layout stage.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are the ZXL-B700 and the ZXL-G700 CE certified, and what does the shipment include?
Yes. All Zhengxin non-woven bag making machines are CE certified, and each machine ships with a CE Declaration of Conformity and a CE marking plate affixed to the machine body. The certification covers the Machinery Directive (2006/42/EC), the Low Voltage Directive (2014/35/EU) and the Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive (2014/30/EU). The manufacturing facility itself is ISO 9001:2015 certified, and the ISO 9001 certificate copy is provided with every shipment. Both facts apply equally to the ZXL-B700 and the ZXL-G700 — the certification status does not differentiate them. Country-specific certifications such as SONCAP, PVOC or SASO can be arranged on request.
Can one machine produce both D-cut or drawstring bags and side-gusset organ bags?
Not between these two models. The ZXL-G700 is the model with the side gusset, adjustable from 60 mm to 200 mm, and it supports automatic handle heat-sealing and punching. The ZXL-B700 is the model specified for D-cut bags and drawstring bags, with the D-cut bag punching unit and a high-power ultrasonic welding system that supports non-woven fabric and spunlaced non-woven fabric. Their material windows also differ: 30–120 g/m² on the B700 versus 50–100 g/m² on the G700. If your order book contains both bag families, the correct answer is two machines rather than one compromised machine.
How should I budget for the difference between the two models?
Machine pricing for the ZXL-B700 and the ZXL-G700 is quoted per configuration, because bag size, sealing method, optional modules and destination voltage all affect the build. As an industry reference point rather than a quotation, the average price of a non-woven bag making machine was approximately USD 29,000 per unit in 2025 (LP Information). The two models also carry different running costs that belong in the same budget line: the ZXL-B700 has a 12 kW total power rating, while the ZXL-G700 is rated at 18 kW — a 50% higher connected load. Standard payment terms are 30% deposit by T/T with the 70% balance before shipment, after pre-shipment inspection; letters of credit at sight are accepted for orders above USD 50,000. Request a written quotation against your bag specification for both models before comparing totals.
Can I validate the machine with sample bags before committing to an order?
Yes, and it is worth doing at the specification stage rather than the delivery stage. Every completed Zhengxin machine runs a continuous production test before shipment, during which sample bags are inspected for seal strength, print registration and dimensional accuracy. Ask for sample bags in your own fabric GSM and, where relevant, in your own printed material so that registration can be checked — this is particularly useful on the ZXL-B700, whose colour tracking sensor governs cut position on printed rolls. Zhengxin also welcomes factory visits and provides live video factory tours showing production lines, testing areas and machines being built, and will arrange third-party pre-shipment inspection by SGS, Bureau Veritas or CCIC at the buyer’s request.
What is the lead time and delivery timeline for either model?
Standard lead time is 25–35 working days for standard models, or 35–45 days where customisation is required; customisation itself typically adds 5–10 working days to the production schedule. Sea freight then adds 15–45 days depending on destination — roughly 15 days to Indonesia, 25 days to Kenya, 35 days to Nigeria and 40 days to Brazil — giving a total of about 45–80 days from order to arrival at your port. Installation for a single machine is typically completed in 1–2 working days, with most installations handled by the buyer’s team under remote video guidance from Zhengxin engineers. If you want sample bags before placing the order, request them first; that step sits outside the production lead time and protects the order from a specification mismatch.
Conclusion: Choose the Bag Form, Then the Machine
The ZXL-B700 and the ZXL-G700 are not two price points on the same machine — they are two answers to two different bag specifications. The ZXL-B700 is the platform for D-cut and drawstring bags, with a 100–800 mm bag width range, a 30–120 g/m² material window, a 12 kW load and a documented capacity of 4,000–5,000 bags per hour. The ZXL-G700 is the platform for side-gusset organ bags, with a 60–200 mm adjustable side gusset, a 200–400 mm bag width range, a 50–100 g/m² material and handle window, a published 380–600 mm handle length, and an 18 kW load on a 12-metre footprint.
If the gusset question answers yes, the decision is made. If it answers no, the material window and bag width range finish the job. Speed and daily output should be the last check, not the first — the two models overlap across most of their speed bands, and no amount of throughput compensates for a machine that cannot produce the bag your customer ordered.
Next step: sample first, then configure
Send your bag drawing, target GSM and monthly volume, and Zhengxin will confirm which model matches — and produce sample bags so you can verify the seal, the dimensions and the handle before the order is placed.
