LABCOLD RLDF1510 Climatic Class 4 Refrigerator - IMA IMA C21

• Producing individual tea bags for retail packaging.
• Packaging herbal infusions and similar dry particulate products.
• Forming, filling, and sealing small sachets for single-serve portions.
• Integrating into automated lines for secondary packaging like cartoning.

Typical throughput

For this class of equipment, speeds commonly range from 100 to 150 bags per minute, depending on material and product.

Bag type

Units of this type typically produce heat-sealed filter paper bags, often with a string and tag.

Bag dimensions

Common bag sizes for tea bagging machines are around 60mm x 45mm, suitable for standard tea portions.

Power supply

Typically requires a 3-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with appropriate amperage for industrial machinery.

Footprint

Form-fill-seal machines for tea bags generally require a moderate industrial footprint, varying with configuration and ancillary equipment.

Automation level

Modernised units, especially those with PLC controls, offer automated forming, filling, sealing, and often carton insertion.

• What type of product can these machines handle?

  These machines are primarily designed for granular, free-flowing products such as tea leaves, herbal blends, and similar dry particulate materials.

• Are spare parts readily available for older IMA models?

• What kind of maintenance is typically required?

• Can these machines be adapted for different bag sizes?

• What are the considerations for integrating these into an existing production line?

Form-fill-seal machines hold strong reputations in food packaging for reliability and consistent output. Buyers typically prioritise machines with clear maintenance histories and verified production specifications. Key strengths include versatility across film types and product formats, alongside relatively straightforward operation. When purchasing used units, inspectors should examine seal quality consistency, film tracking accuracy, and the condition of heating elements. Machines from established manufacturers generally command buyer confidence. Downtime for repairs is a common concern, so availability of spare parts and technical support merits careful consideration before acquisition.
