The tna robag 3e is the latest iteration of the flagship vertical form fill and seal (VFFS) packaging system of food processing and packaging specialist tna solutions. 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. Its simplicity makes it easy to operate and maintain, too.

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 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. It 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.

“Food manufacturers are experiencing greater challenges than ever before and must therefore find new ways to improve operational efficiencies,” comments Alf Taylor, Managing Director & CEO at tna. “In an age of digital transformation and remote services, connectivity is king – intelligent communication between packaging systems and their auxiliary equipment allows operators to make their lines work even more efficiently, improving the ROI.”
