Food processing and packaging solutions provider tna is concentrating on high-performance solutions for its stand number A170 at AUSPACK 2019.

The new equipment on display at tna’s stand will include the Robag 5 high-speed vertical form fill and seal system, and the Ropac 5 side-loading case packer. These two systems are among the fastest integrated packaging solutions in the snack industry, tna claims, and are capable of processing up to 300 bags per minute.

According to tna, the company offers complete turnkey solutions for every step of the production line, including materials handling, processing, cooling, coating, distribution, seasoning, weighing, packaging, inserting and labelling, metal detection, and verification.

Visitors to the stand will be able to see tna’s flagship equipment for themselves, and learn about what the company bills as its recently-launched “ultra-high-performance” systems.

Founded in Australia, tna now has over 14,000 solutions installed in more than 120 countries.
