INTUITIVE HMI
Operate and troubleshoot with the HMI touchscreen.
COMPLETE SYSTEM
Create ready-to-ship packages.
CUSTOMIZABLE
Use custom options to fit your operation.
It’s no secret that automation can improve worker throughput and cut time-consuming activities, saving you money
on your packaging process. The Max 12™ and Max 20™ are easy to integrate into your operation to make an
immediate impact.
Save Money
The Max 12 and Max 20’s Next-Bag-Out technology helps cut costly shipping mistakes by eliminating bag queuing
and the mismatch of goods to packing bags. By using 1-to-1 indexing of scanned orders to printed bags,
these polybaggers ensure that the “next bag out” matches the order.
Keep your maintenance costs down with the MAX 12 and MAX 20. Designed to minimize maintenance, each uses
long-lasting heat sealing mechanisms and off-the-shelf parts that simplify and expedite repairs.
Save Time
The MAX 12 and MAX 20 run fast. The lightweight aluminum jaw keeps cycle times low, while the heavy-duty drive
fingers quickly realign for loading the next package. Troubleshoot problem areas quickly using the manuals and
video clips available directly on the touchscreen HMI.
Increase Throughput
Operation is quick and easy – poly bags come off the roll or from a box and feed smoothly to the machine’s opening mechanism. To operate:
- Bag openers and vacuum assist have opened and expanded the bag.
- The user places contents into the polybag
- The heat sealing mechanism securely seals the bag.
Address and shipping information can be printed directly onto the bag, which reduces operator involvement and
boosts packing rates. Bags are available on rolls and in boxes, which hold more bags than on a roll.
Employee Training
Training and setup is part of Tension’s standard contract and engagement. When installing your MAX 12 or MAX 20,
a Tension Account Executive works with your operators to review the machine’s operations. On-call support is
available with a Tension Service agreement.
