■ Machine description
The SAESA®120 is a state-of-the-art, fully automatic machine engineered for the production of ABL (Aluminum Barrier Laminate) and PBL (Plastic Barrier Laminate) tubes, reaching production speeds of up to 120 tubes per minute. Designed to meet the highest industry standards, this machine offers unrivaled productivity, flexibility, and ease of operation, making it the ideal solution for businesses looking to start or expand their tube production capabilities.

■ Key benefits
- Best productivity per floor square meter, making this line the perfect equipment to start a tube production business.
- Extended diameter range from 12.7 to 40 mm for increased tube offer, including recyclable solutions.
- 100% side seam welding inspection system with automatic process regulation using artificial intelligence.
- Optimised welding process to handle new laminate structures for virgin plastic reduction.
- Most accessible solution for PBL conversion.
- Faster changeover time - same BM tooling used to produce ABL and PBL tubes.
- Easy to operate.
The SAESA®120 is the fastest single-mandrel machine available on the market, requiring minimal tooling . Particularly suited for the industries such as oral care and pharmaceuticals, this machine is capable of producing up to 40 million tubes per year.
The SAESA®120 is available with two advanced body maker welding systems:
DBHS (Double Belt Heat Sealing):
Suitable for both ABL and PBL tubes, or PBL-only versions. With this system, no high-frequency (HF) welding is required for PBL production. With the ABL option installed, the machine switches from ABL to PBL using the same body maker tooling.
MIBS (Mono Belt Sealing):
Optimised for producing smaller ABL and PBL tubes, with diameters as small as Ø12.7 mm. Upgrade available to existing Saesa® machines.
