tna present to showcase line
tna, the leading supplier of turn-key, integrated packaging and processing solutions for food production companies worldwide, showcases a fully integrated packaging line with a robag® 3 fx 180 Rotary Triple Jaw (RTJ) vertical form, fill and seal (VFFS) bagger at the Snackex International Savoury Snack and Peanut Exhibition and Conference in Barcelona, Spain, 3-5 June, Booth # 521.
tna will integrate a robag® 3 fx 180 RTJ VFFS bagger with a tna 320 delta scale, a tna Intelli-date™ 53T date coder and Safeline metal detector to produce small pillow bags with flat bag widths of 180mm. Capable of speeds up to 300BPM, the fully integrated line is perfect for the snack industry or any high-density product that needs to be packed at a high speed and in a small bag. The fully integrated packaging system enables customers to monitor and direct all compatible upstream and downstream equipment like weighers, date coders and metal detectors from a master control unit.
“The packaging line on display demonstrates tna’s ability to fully integrate a complete line for customers and to deliver a turn-key solution from one single supplier,” says Shayne De la Force, group marketing manager for tna. “Customers need current statistical information about their production lines, displayed to them in an easy to read spreadsheet or database format, and our equipment delivers that.”
Each time a bag is formed, the robag® summarizes and collates information from all pieces of equipment. The potential exists to then feed this data through to any PC, in real time. This allows the production manager the freedom to monitor and analyse all activities at the moment of production from the comfort of his/her office without needing to attend the production floor.
tna, celebrating its 25th anniversary in business this year, has set the benchmark in the industry for vertical form, fill and seal (VFFS) packaging systems, creating highly efficient machines, using less parts with a simple design to increase maximum output and flexibility. Today, tna provides a complete line of products from its well known robag® VFFS Baggers; roflo® Product Distribution & Accumulation Equipment; Seasoning Systems; Multihead Scales; Checkweighers; Date Coders; Metal Detectors, Case Packers; Palletizers; and Complete Processing Equipment.
tna core products offer a range of robag® stand-alone and turn-key systems that are renowned in the industry for bagging speed capabilities, efficiency and overall performance. The robag® VFFS system has experienced much success in the snack, confectionery, biscuit, cereal, pasta, powder and fresh produce markets, and can form pillow, block bottom, quattro, string and canoe bags. tna remains committed to both its customers and the industry, and strives to provide the highest-quality systems and services available.
