The MINI Vertical Form Fill and Seal Machine from KRONEN GmbH, in partnership with GKS Packaging B.V., stands out for its compact, user-friendly design tailored for high-speed portion packaging. It specializes in creating precise pillow and self-standing bags for a diverse range of products, including foods like nuts, salads, and sauces, as well as non-food items. Capable of producing up to 65 bags per minute, this machine seamlessly integrates into both high-care and low-care production environments. It features a servo-driven film transport system for precise bag dimensions and supports manual or automatic filling, making it highly versatile. The machine’s low power and air consumption contribute to cost-efficient operations, while its modular build ensures easy maintenance and quick component replacements. Optional accessories, such as gas flushing (MAP) and printing systems, enhance functionality, supporting extended product shelf life and comprehensive labeling. With its small footprint and robust, hygienic design, the MINI offers flexibility and reliability for small- to medium-scale food processing and packaging operations.
