How the machine works

The packaging machine SB18-2T is a vertically operating, fully automatic forming, filling and sealing machine for the production of very small tubular bags, the so called “Stickpacks”. The machine processes different types of fleece from the flat foil reel. In a sequence of single operations, the film is drawn off from the reel, formed to a tube during transportation and sealed lengthwise, filled then, sealed transversally and cut off.
The SB18-2T is a machine with 2 lanes in one housing.
