A cost-effective, highly reliable solution with a compact footprint, ensuring excellent productivity, the C24-T is a high-speed option for naked bags only, free-flowing products or black tea.

Simply incomparable

The technology behind the C24-T derives directly from the sophisticated C24-E version, providing a highly efficient, cost-effective solution exclusively for knotted naked tea bags and free-flowing products.

Mechanical single bag rejection and conformity control via a video camera to check correct knotting ensure constant product quality without unwanted interruptions to the packaging process. The equipment can be set up to accept an external weight control and adjustment device if required.

An on-board PC constantly monitors the process and keeps production efficiency at unrivalled levels for what is a cost-effective, high-speed machine.

The C24-T reaches speeds of up to 400 naked bags per minute.
