How It Compares
| Manual inner and outer bag assembly | The C18 replaces hand packing with consistent fill weight and tag alignment, but requires a fixed floor space of 1250 x 700 mm and trained operator |
|---|---|
| Single-layer filter paper bag machine | The C18 adds a moisture-resistant outer envelope and branded tag, but requires more complex material setup and adjustment |
| Flat bag machine with separate outer wrapping | The C18 forms both bags simultaneously, reducing cycle time, but is limited to tea bag format and not suitable for bulk or stand-up pouches |
Use Guide
- 1Connect a single phase 220V 50Hz power supply and ensure stable voltage
- 2Load the filter paper roll for inner bags and composite film for outer envelopes
- 3Set inner bag size to 50-70 mm length and 40-80 mm width based on your product
- 4Set outer bag size to 70-120 mm length and 60-90 mm width for desired appearance
- 5Adjust tag size to 20-24 mm length and 40-55 mm width for photoelectric positioning
- 6Run a test batch of 10 bags and verify fill volume, seal integrity and tag alignment
- 7Clean the filling cup and film guides between product changes to prevent cross-contamination
