MEERBUSCH, Germany, March 17, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --

- Meerbusch, on the 17th of March 2011

In time for the interpack show in Dusseldorf Teepack Spezialmaschinen GmbH & Co. KG will present innovative packaging machines from the 12th to the 18th of May. In hall 11 at booth E54/F53 visitors will experience live the vertical form, fill and seal machine Zenobia, the new teabag machine Compacta and the high-end teabag machine Perfecta.

True to the motto "get 100 percent" Teepack displays its product range. The versatile form, fill and seal machine Zenobia, for example, produces flat, gusset or block bags for the food and the non-food industry. Extended with the patented Air Free system it can produce air-reduced stand-up pouches in just one work step. Subsequently with the integrated folding and labelling machine FM260 block bags may be produced continuously - this saves valuable space and up to ten percent of the packaging materials.

The trade fair novelty Compacta as an entry-level machine specialises on the core of packaging tea. It avoids cost-intensive electronics and thus allows for low levels of investment. With a capacity of up to 250 bags per minute Compacta can produce tea bags with the smallest tags of a size of 20 x 24 millimetres. The newly developed, cost-effective heat-sealing unit allows the machine to pack the already produced naked tea bags with tag in an aroma-protected envelope foil. Optionally, Compacta may be equipped with an extended monitoring system, a faulty bag ejection as well as the machine data gathering.

The high-end solution Perfecta Universal allows for the manufacture of three different kinds of tea bags on one single machine. With a production speed of 350 bags per minute it packages tea bags with tag and thread in paper or aroma-protected envelope foil.
