Designed based on operational flexibility
- Flexible production of short shelf life & ESL products on one Tetra Pak® E3/Flex machine and you can switch from one to the other
- Reduced operational costs due to capacity increase to 8000 p/h (with duplex board 320mN)
- An optional high viscosity kit paves the way for range expansion and new product innovations
- Competitive package volumes and openings: Tetra Brik® 900 & 450 Ultra Edge packages, with a DIMC module for LightCap™ 30 and WingCap™ 30

Features
Optional use of eBeam
Chemical-free packaging material disinfection
- Tetra Pak® E3/Flex XH is for the production of chilled products with an extended shelf life. A single eBeam lamp is used to disinfect the inner part of the packaging material. Start here and switch easily to chilled production via the operator panel.
- Tetra Pak ® E3/Flex Pasteurized is for the production of short shelf life chilled products. No eBeam lamp is needed to disinfect the packaging material. Start here and switch to ESL production by installing the Optional Kit Adaptation For Extended Hygiene.
New servo toolbox for DIMC
Controlled moulding movements
The Direct Injection Moulding Concept (DIMC) station on Tetra Pak® E3 Flex platform is activated by a motor driven tool box instead of a pneumatic cylinder. The Servo Toolbox guarantees a controlled movement in terms of moulding position and moulding closing torque.
Web Position Active Control
Enhanced sealing quality and reduced dust
This new feature improves two important aspects of the filling machine functionality:
- Sealing quality because the web position accuracy is improved through a dynamic correction of the position
- Reduced dust because the device is not in contact with the edges of the packaging material
Tube Position Active Control
Automatic adjustment in packaging material positioning
This new feature reads the rotations of the packaging material during transient phases and corrects the creases alignment of the package. It enables the Web Position Active Control to make adjustments automatic.
New operator interface
Wide screen
The operator panel has a new look and feel and a wider screen – in 16:9. More intuitive icons are available with added functionality and improved usability. The time required to perform the different operations has been reduced.
Breakthrough technology eBeam to the beverage carton industry for the first time
The Tetra Pak® E3 platform is a series of filling machines that use eBeam technology to sterilise packaging material replacing the traditional hydrogen peroxide sterilisation process for packaging material while guaranteeing the same sterilisation performance. The eBeam sterilisation technology works by focusing a controlled beam of electrons on the surface of a packaging material to kill micro-organisms as it runs through the filling machine.
