tna solutions advance VFFS packaging performance with the launch of tna robag 3e

Global food processing and packaging solutions specialist, tna solutions, unveiled the latest iteration of its flagship vertical form fill and seal (VFFS) packaging system, the tna robag® 3e.

Featuring a new CXE integrated display controller, smart diagnostic tools, and intuitive time-saving components, the system is capable of delivering up to 250 bags per minute (bpm) with wastage as low as 0.1%, alongside enhanced serviceability.

Expanded connectivity and simpler servicing

The simplicity of the new tna robag® 3e VFFS packaging solution makes it easy to operate, service and maintain. Featuring EtherCAT® real-time protocol and an integrated display controller system, this latest tna robag® reduces cabling infrastructure by 20%, enabling easier servicing and lower total installed costs.

The new system shares common core components with tna roflo® distribution conveyors and the tna intelli-flav® seasoning system reducing the need for additional spare parts stocking, and features integrated LED lighting in the packaging jaw area to make maintenance safer and easier to perform.

Equipped with smart diagnostics and remote connectivity, the tna robag® 3e also offers real-time communication and status updates, enabling faster global servicing support.
