The ATB-C6 automatic foil-wrapped teabag packing machine unit is a premium model with outer-foil sachet packaging. It could dose a maximum of 6 ml of tea products (20-60 meshes) or bulk non-viscous granular materials, such as CTC black tea, green broken tea, and herbals, into the bag. This teabag packaging machine focuses on producing a single-chamber filter teabag with a thread and a tag, then automatically wrapping it in a foil envelope sachet. Both the inner tea bag (50 x 62.5 mm) and the outer envelope sachet (70 x 80 mm) are of standard sizes for the international tea packaging market.
MODEL ATB-C6 | TECHNICAL DATA


The standard foil-wrapped teabag sizes are 50 x 62.5 mm (Filter Teabag with Thread and tag); 70 x 80 mm (Outer Foil Envelope Teabags). Normally, the inner filter teabag can hold about 2-2.2 grams of CTC Black Tea. The required packaging materials are Filter Paper Film (Heat-Seal Type); Heat-Seal Type Tags; Cotton Thread; and Laminated Foil Outer Sachet Film Coil. According to production needs, the vacuum elevator system with material-level sensors and the transparent safety guard system with an alarm function could be customized.

ADVANCED FEATURES OF THE TEABAG PACKING MACHINE
- This teabag packing machine model adopts an intelligent Panasonic PLC control and operates via the Samkoon HMI interface. The whole machine frame and the parts in contact with the material are made of high-strength food-grade stainless steel, with a good appearance. Different kinds of sensor-detecting systems are equipped on this machine to detect jammed teabags, empty teabags, a shortage of packaging materials, and tea materials. The transparent safety guard system is designed for this machine model to support a clear and safe production process.
- It focuses on packing foil envelope tea bags at a stable production speed of 105 sachets per minute. The standard teabag machine unit has been designed with an automatic counting system, and the user can pre-set the counting numbers directly on the HMI. Normally, the operator could manually pick up the counted foil envelopes of teabags and place them directly into the box. An automatic boxing system could also be chosen to realize full automation production.
- This machine unit adopts an integrated design, making it compact for installation. According to each factory’s production needs and market requirements, this teabag packing machine could also be integrated with the vacuum elevator system to automatically elevate the tea product using a material level sensor. An automatic weight checker and a rejecting device could be connected to verify the output sachet weight and ensure the quality of the final product before packaging it into the box.
- The foil-wrapped teabags could prevent moisture from escaping and keep the tea’s fresh taste. Thus, most tea factories choose to pack the filter teabag with thread & tags into the foil sachet to ensure a longer shelf life. What’s more, the foil-enveloped tea bags have a better appearance for marketing. Compared with the traditional naked filter tea bag packing machine solution, this enveloped tea bag packing machine solution could help save costs because there is no need to cellophane-wrap the box after the tea bags are packed into it.
- To better support the client with the project, we provide sample material testing services to a start-up on the tea bag machine project. Each client could deliver around 4 kg of sample tea materials to us. The products must be vacuum-packed before delivery. Then we shall arrange for the machine to test the material and confirm whether the standard tea bag sizes meet the customer’s requirements. In this way, it could better ensure the client gets the most accurate packaging data for their products. We could also supply the client with customized packaging materials.
What is the foil-wrapped filter paper teabag?
The foil-wrapped filter teabag is also called “foil-enveloped filter teabag” in the international market. The inner bag is a filter paper teabag with thread & tag, and the outer bag is a 3-side seal sachet. The outer sachet is normally made of coated paper or aluminum foil film. Compared with the Model ATB-S1 machine unit, which also has the outer sachet function, the Model ATB-C6 produces a fixed outer sachet size for the market.
How to produce the foil-enveloped filter paper teabag?
Currently, the Model ATB-C6 machine unit produces foil-enveloped filter paper teabags at high speed. It has been upgraded to the 3rd generation, incorporating many years of market feedback and improvements. The newest generation of equipment has added the PLC control system with an HMI interface for easier operation and detection. It ensures stable, high-performance operation at 105 sachets per minute for users with an advanced counting system. It is the best choice for users who need to package this teabag pattern.
How much does the foil-enveloped teabag packing machine cost?
The standard machine unit roughly costs 55K dollars. The Solution-Pack team will analyze the users’ tea product features to propose additional functions, including the Hopper Stirring System, Vacuum Elevator System, Vibration Feeding System, Heat-Seal Tag System, Auger-Screw Dosing System, and Lexan Board Safety Door System. Various tea products have different densities and flowing features. We aim to ensure the best running performance for users, drawing on our rich experience in the teabag packaging machine market.
How many grams of tea products can fit into the foil-enveloped teabag?
There is no fixed data for that. It all depends on the density of the tea. For example, the 50 x 62.5mm filter paper teabag can hold around 2.0 grams of CTC tea, and around 1.5 grams of herbal tea. Users can test by filling the empty filter paper teabags with tea and ensuring that the filled teabags do not exceed 1/2 of the teabag. Measuring the filled tea products could help figure out the suitable packaging weight. Meanwhile, Solution-Pack also supports material testing for worldwide users to facilitate their projects.
