LABCOLD RLDF1510 Climatic Class 4 Refrigerator - IMA IMA C21

• Producing tea bags for retail packaging.
• Forming, filling, and sealing various dry, particulate products into pouches.
• Packaging herbal infusions and similar products.
• High-speed production lines requiring automated bagging.

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, throughput commonly ranges from 150 to 300 bags per minute, depending on bag size and product characteristics.

Power supply

Units of this type typically require a three-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with an associated compressed air supply.

Bag type

This model is specified for producing double-chamber string and tag tea bags without an outer envelope.

Product compatibility

Typically suitable for free-flowing granular or particulate products such as tea leaves, herbs, or similar dry goods.

Footprint

Form-fill-seal machines of this capacity generally require a significant operational footprint, typically several square metres, plus space for material loading and maintenance access.

Automation features

Commonly includes features such as automatic string and tag application, and batch counting, as indicated by the 'groups of 25 bags' counter setting.

• What is a double-chamber tea bag?

  A double-chamber tea bag features two compartments, which typically allows for better infusion and flavour extraction compared to single-chamber designs.

• Can this machine produce different bag sizes?

• What maintenance is typically required for a used form-fill-seal machine?

• Is training usually needed to operate this type of equipment?

• What are the considerations for installing a machine like this?

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.
