Teepack produces high-grade packaging machines for double chamber tea bags as well as vertical, form, fill & seal machines since 1948.
Teepack – Zenobia Air Free System
Technology at the highest level
The patented Air Free System of the ZENOBIA is integrated below the cross jaws and is a true multi-tasker. In just one single process step, the bag is sealed, the product is condensed, if required, and air is dispersed from the bag – all that without any need for additional machinery or wasted packaging material.
The benefits AIR FREE System
Increased efficiency – high nominal capacity of up to 100 bags per minute
Environmentally friendly and economical manufacture – no packaging material waste
Up to 10 % of packaging material saved – minimised top flap by sealing the head seam directly above the product fill height
Minimal footprint – multi-tasking concept of the Air Free System
Increased bag stability – aligned bottom seam
Constant quality of air-reduced bags – process integrated fill height adjustment
Easy gassing option – bag closure on the machine
Density Control System
Here, changes in the density of the product are captured – which triggers an adjustment of the bag production. The fill height of the product is registered and stored by a pressure-sensitive device on the lifter. Should deviations occur repeatedly, then a step motor will correct the position of the folding plates.
Aligned Bottom Seam
The stability of the bag is ensured by the panning lifter of the Air Free System. It turns over a defined bottom seam while the material is still
Gentle Product Densification
The optimised activation of vibration impulses allows the product to be gently condensed in the Air Free System during production

Active Film Unwinding
Continuous and slip-free film guidance is ensured by the active film unwinding with controlled drive and dancer system.
Film Tracking Control
The film carrier unit and the film tracking control allow for non-stop and exact film guidance. The position of the film can therefore be corrected automatically while processing.
TEEPACK Software
Automatic calculation of the optimised parameters for each format after initial base data input. Quick format change and minimal set up time due to automatic data retention. Clear and concise user interface, customer-friendly programming, touchscreen and industrial PC.
Machine-integrated Electric Cabinet
Process-secure and reproducible machine operations are supported by electronically controlled servo drives. The machine-integrated electric cabinet is air-conditioned, and the servo drives of the main drives are additionally water-cooled to ensure continued high performan

Teepack FM260
Folding and tagging machine FM260
Maximised capacity with minimal space requirements
Extreme economy is the distinguishing mark of the ZENOBIA with integrated Air Free System and the folding and tagging machine FM260. Continuous work processes and automated folding steps interlink seamlessly.
The Air Free System produces air-reduced bags with condensed content – the bag fin no longer needs to be cut off.
The benefits FM260
- Increased efficiency – up to 100 block bags per minute with one single form tube
- Reduced operating costs – minimum space requirements
- Up to 10 % packaging material saving – process- integrated Air Free System
- Low maintenance costs – good visibility, accessibility and wear-free drive system
- High versatility – automated format change
- High machine availability – minimised format change times
- Excellent process security and reproducibility – automated, continuous manufacturing process
- High bag quality – the dimensional stability of the film is overcome gently in just a few process steps
Bag Transfer
The air-reduced bag is transferred via the Air Free System to the conveyor of the FM2
Automated Format Change
Format changes occur without the need to exchange mechanical parts. All movements are carried out via servo motors and spindles. All settings can be stored as recipes and called up as needed for format change
Automated Height Adjustment
Deviations in bag heights can be compensated with an automated height adjustment of the folding units. Measurement data of the density control system is transmitted to the FM260 by way of an electronic coupling
