Vertical bagging machine VTI 500

VFFSform fill sealservo-driven

Description
The VTI 500 is a vertical form-fill-seal (VFFS) machine for intermittent production of three-seal bags. It is designed to pack liquids, pastes, powders, granulated foods, IQF frozen products, snacks, vegetables and a wide range of particulate or non-compact products. The machine architecture focuses on hygienic design, simple maintenance and efficient operator access; controls and drives centralise operation and speed up format changes.
