Imbal Stock vertical packaging machines meet different needs: Stick Pack sachets for product doses, packs for small confectionery items and solutions for small parts. The machine should be selected according to the product, the bag format and the feeding or dosing system.
The range includes the TWIN series for Stick Pack and vertical packaging machines such as IMBAL EASY FOOD, IMBAL 250, IMBAL DSB 250 LCC and IMBAL BAGGER. This page explains the main differences. A specific configuration requires details of your product and, where necessary, trials with the packaging material.
The TWIN-L series is the Stick Pack model to consider for liquids, viscous products and oils. It operates on two lanes and can be configured with different dosing units. The doser is selected according to product viscosity, the required volume and operating conditions.
The technical data indicate a weight of 660 kg for the reference configuration; the actual weight can vary with the installed dosing system. When selecting a machine, it is therefore more useful to assess the complete configuration than a single catalogue figure.
The TWIN-P and TWIN-G series are designed for powders and granules. The loading solution and doser depend on how the product behaves: flowability, tendency to compact and quantity per pack are useful details when setting up a trial.
IMBAL EASY FOOD is the vertical packaging machine to consider for small confectionery products, such as sweets or pralines, in pillow or flat-bottom bags. It can be used with manual loading for short production runs or integrated with an automatic weighing or dosing system.
The two configurations meet different production needs. Manual loading is suitable when products change frequently or batches are small; automatic feeding must be sized together with the line. To assess the right setup, product samples, the pack format and the required output are needed.
IMBAL 250, IMBAL DSB 250 LCC and IMBAL BAGGER are also available for small parts and other technical applications. These are distinct models: IMBAL 250 is the product listed under the DSB 250 STA designation. In small-parts and metallurgy applications, PE film is a common choice, to be checked against the product and required pack.
The linked EASY FOOD, IMBAL 250, LCC and BAGGER product sheets are currently available in Italian.
Vertical configurations can be assessed for PE and PP films, PLA-based films and, with suitable optional sealing bars, polyethylene-coated paper. Compatibility is not the same for every model: the material, seal and final result must be tested on the machine with the product to be packed.
Depending on the project, the machines can be integrated into existing lines and connected to weighing systems, liquid or powder dosers, coders and printers, or cartoning systems. The starting point is a layout of the current line, the available space and the required output.
To identify the model to investigate, specify the product, the quantity per bag, the desired format, the packaging material and the required number of packs. If the machine is to join an installed line, details of upstream and downstream systems are also needed. Imbal Stock can then assess the dosing system, machine and any necessary connections.
In the Imbal Stock range, TWIN Stick Pack machines produce narrow sachets for product doses. Other vertical packaging machines cover different formats, such as the pillow or flat-bottom bags produced by IMBAL EASY FOOD. The format depends on the product and how the pack will be used.
No. IMBAL EASY FOOD can operate with manual loading, useful for short production runs, or be combined with automatic weighing or dosing. The configuration depends on the product and line output; the two modes should not be considered identical in capacity or workflow.
These materials must be assessed for the specific model and configuration. Dedicated sealing bars may be necessary for polyethylene-coated paper. Before confirming compatibility, the specific material should be tested with the product, checking seal quality, format and packing output.
Yes. Integration can include weighing systems, dosers, printing systems and cartoning modules. The solution depends on the equipment already installed, the available space and the required workflow. An initial technical assessment helps clarify connections and additional components.
Send us your product details, bag format and required production output. If you already have a line, include a layout or some photos: we can indicate which models to consider and which trials to carry out.
