Filter Paper Tea Bag Packing Machines · Model C18

C18 Filter Paper Tea Bag Packaging Machine with Thread

The C18 automatically forms, fills and seals inner and outer tea bags from a single roll of filter paper with thread and tag, running 40 to 60 bags per minute at 3 to 15 ml per bag. It is built for tea blenders and health-tea producers who need to package small granular blends in a two-layer structure with a visible tag and secure outer envelope. The machine uses a volumetric cup filler and photoelectric positioning to align the tag and outer bag, reducing manual handling and improving consistency across batches.

  • Forms inner and outer bags simultaneously to reduce operator contact with packing materials
  • Photoelectric positioning ensures tag and outer bag align correctly on every bag
  • Volumetric cup filling delivers consistent fill volume between 3 and 15 ml per bag
  • Adjustable inner and outer bag sizes to match different product formats and branding needs

Key Benefits

  • Forms inner and outer bags simultaneously to reduce operator contact with packing materials
  • Photoelectric positioning ensures tag and outer bag align correctly on every bag
  • Volumetric cup filling delivers consistent fill volume between 3 and 15 ml per bag
  • Adjustable inner and outer bag sizes to match different product formats and branding needs
  • Thread and tag attachment is optional, allowing flexible configuration for different markets
  • One operator can manage the line after training, replacing a manual packing team

Application Scenarios

  • Tea blenders packaging small granular blends in a two-layer bag with a visible tag for retail or gift sets
  • Herbal and health-tea producers running short batches of multiple formulas with consistent branding
  • Contract packers handling multiple private-label tea brands from one machine with quick format changeover
  • Food service suppliers packing medicinal and wellness teas for hotel and institutional use

Who It Is For

  • Tea blenders transitioning from manual packing to in-house automatic inner and outer bagging

  • Buyers replacing a manual or semi-automated line that cannot maintain consistent fill volume

Problems It Solves

  • Manual inner and outer bagging leads to inconsistent fill volume and poor tag alignment
  • Direct handling of filter paper increases contamination risk and slows down production
  • Lack of photoelectric positioning causes misaligned tags and rejected bags in high-speed runs
  • Fixed bag sizes limit the ability to adapt to different product formats or customer requirements
  • Inconsistent outer bag sealing leads to poor shelf appearance and potential product exposure

How It Compares

Manual inner and outer baggingThe C18 replaces a hand-filling team and ensures consistent fill volume and tag alignment, but requires a fixed footprint of 1250 x 700 mm and an operator trained on changeover
Single-layer filter paper tea bag machineThe C18 provides a two-layer structure with a visible tag and outer envelope, improving product appearance and protection, but uses more film and requires more setup time
Heat sealed flat bag machineThe C18 handles small granular blends without bridging, while flat bag machines may struggle with uneven flow and inconsistent fill

Use Guide

  1. 1Connect a clean dry air supply at 0.6 MPa and a single phase 220V 50Hz outlet
  2. 2Load the filter paper roll for the inner bag and composite film for the outer bag
  3. 3Set inner and outer bag dimensions to match your product size and branding
  4. 4Adjust tag size and position using the photoelectric sensor settings
  5. 5Enter target fill volume between 3 and 15 ml and calibrate the volumetric cup with your own tea
  6. 6Run ten sample bags and check fill volume, seal integrity and tag alignment before starting the batch
  7. 7Clean the filling cup and sealing area between product changes to avoid cross-contamination
