Vertical slicer for tobacco bales
Optimize your tobacco production by achieving precise and consistent slicing of bales, ensuring seamless integration with direct conditioning processes for superior product quality and efficiency.
The SVBM Series from COMAS, a leader in tobacco processing solutions, excels in efficiently slicing and portioning tobacco bales. This vertical slicer is designed to handle all tobacco formats, from small Hessian bales to large Hogsheads, ensuring adaptability for different products such as cigarette blends, pipe tobacco, and modern smokeless variants. With a processing capacity of up to 11,000 kg/h, the SVBM optimizes slice thickness via a user-friendly HMI, which enables you to adjust slices to match tobacco type and bale compaction. Integration with a continuous weigh belt ensures consistent mass flow to Direct Conditioning Cylinders, enhancing downstream processing efficiency. The machine supports automated operations and is easily integrated into high-speed, continuous production lines, providing configurable options for differing processing needs. With its robust construction, the SVBM is an ideal choice for pre-processing and processing departments seeking reliable performance in tobacco slicing applications.
