Step into Cognitive Manufacturing
The IMA Ever‑Evolving System invites you into a new era of manufacturing.
Clean forever. Clever
Based on extensive research to minimise the amount of tea dust deposited on the machine, the C27-E implements a host of clever solutions such as the incorporation of groups inside the machine frame, also significantly reducing the footprint of the machine.
The C27-E produces knotted tea bags at up to 300 bags/minute and handles tea as well as non-free-flowing products thanks to a special vibrating feeding system for herbs.
The C27-E is a medium-speed solution for all tea and herb varieties. Naked bags and sealed outer envelopes are the two available packaging methods. It is equipped with a new cartoning attachment with a level of flexibility allowing both 1 to 4 row processing, as well as carton types including tuck-in, Kurzlaschen and caddy style.
Complete working cycle control is enabled via a PC with a user-friendly on-board HMI. Machine operators also benefit from remote monitoring on a mobile device (tablet or smartphone) thanks to Open Standard software and full interoperability.
Production plant
IMA Tea & Herbs
Medium production speed: up to 300 bags/minute.
New design concept combining dust-free machinery and reduced footprint.
Environmentally friendly thanks to absence of metal staple.
Vibrating product feeding system for non-free-flowing products: minimises product degradation.
Advanced mechanical single bag rejection: less compressed air consumption, less tea dust on machine.
Naked bags and heat or cold-sealed outer envelopes.
New-generation HMI for simplified interaction and interoperability.
New cartoning unit handling from 1 to 4 rows, for tuck-in, Kurzlaschen and caddy type cartons.
Thanks to Open Standards software, IMA provides operators with an advanced on-board HMI which is easily complemented by the convenience of mobile devices supporting the same functions as the on-board control panel.
