Low input, maximum output – gentle and efficient pneumatic transport of tobacco using smart SACU technology.

SACU tobtronic® for pneumatic transport of tobacco

Transport control

Our patented SACU tobtronic® is one of the most effective technologies available for transporting cut tobacco gently during pneumatic conveying. It increases tobacco yield in cigarette making and reduces the downtime of cigarette makers. The system, made up of two units, continuously measures air and cut tobacco speed in the feeding pipe and regulates transport to as low a speed level as possible. The integrated anti-blockage control function prevents blockages inside the piping.

Advantages

Higher material efficiency and improved tobacco yield
Improved cut tobacco quality
Reliable and on-demand supply of cut tobacco
Reduced energy costs
Compatibility with all feeder and maker types

Features

Measuring and regulation of air and cut tobacco conveying speed
Leakage monitoring and compensation for the receiving airlock of the cigarette maker
Maintenance functions such as differential pressure and leakage display on the receiving airlock
Priority feeding mode to ensure supply of cut tobacco
Integral part of Eco Mode for energy savings

Greenline
