At Pack Expo International in Chicago, packaging equipment specialist TNA Solutions is showing what is claimed to be the world’s fastest case packer for flexible bags, the tna ropac® 5.
The machine is designed to bring high levels of automation and efficiency, helping food companies cope with the continuing problems of labor shortages.
The tna ropac 5 handles small-to-medium pillow-style bags for snacks, confectionery, pasta and cereals and can operate at up to 200 bags or 10 cases per minute.
“U.S. food manufacturers have been significantly impacted by labor shortages, driving an increased demand for automation. As the world’s largest market for snacks and the second largest for confectionery, the US provides an ideal platform for us to highlight our complete processing and packaging line solutions.
This year at PACK EXPO International, we are spotlighting our secondary packaging capabilities, a critical yet often overlooked aspect of production that can significantly enhance automation and efficiency.”
~ Mukul Shukla, Vice President, TNA North America.
The tna ropac 5 is designed to meet today’s need for fast changeovers and increased flexibility, it can handle a wide range of bag and case sizes and features tool-less changeover.
In November, TNA Solutions will show their primary and secondary packaging equipment at booth N-5120 at PACK EXPO International. You can also get more information on the tna ropac 5 system from the TNA site.
