Built by Hauni for manufacturers chasing maximum efficiency, precision and output, the Protos 80 ER carries the series' reputation for reliability and advanced automation, delivering strong consistency whether you produce regular or slim cigarettes, a trusted pick for high-volume lines.
Capacity is where it stands out: up to 8,000 cigarettes a minute on regular diameters and 7,000 on slim and super slim formats, with circumferences from 17mm to 28.3mm and combined filter-and-tobacco rod lengths of 65mm to 110mm, staying flexible from king size through slim to niche formats.
A high-level PLC control system, on either Siemens IPC or Beckhoff IPC, keeps the whole cycle smooth and automated. Real-time monitoring and quick system response cut human error, and a built-in microwave weight control system holds consistent cigarette weight for tight quality control.
Three powerful units work together: the S7000 cigarette rod maker at 50KW, the M8000 filter tip attachment at 20KW and the F80 automatic tray filler at 15KW. Used in cigarette factories worldwide, the Protos 80 combines efficient energy use, low wastage and precise engineering, at around 10,800kg total weight, a heavy, stable line built for continuous, large-scale production.
