A ttendance at trade fairs is the best opportunity to engage in direct relations with custom-

ers and outside consultants; given the major importance it places on personal contact, Storci has created a special sector, highlighting the aspect of ser-vice and human relations.For this reason, we will soon launch into a very busy fair season 2014/15. The first event on the calendar is Agropro-dmash, which will be held in Moscow (6-8 October), where we will be able to present the complete line of tech-nologies for the production of dried and fresh pasta, ready-to-serve foods and couscous. Also in October (28-31) Stor-ci will be a featured player at home with Cibus Tec. The 2014 edition will be par-ticularly interesting thanks to the stra-tegic agreement between Cibus Tec, Food Pack and Anuga Food Tec which has given birth to an international net-work in support of the activities in the food sector, a concerted response to the needs of a company such as Storci, to allow it to coordinate its international trade fair calendar. It will be present here under the brand of the Storci-BS company network and it will have an attractive stand ready to welcome visi-tors interested in the world of pasta, couscous and ready-to-serve foods.Parma and its area will provide the opportunity for a full-immersion ex-perience of the world of pasta-mak-ing, and for this reason, during the trade fair, Storci will open its doors to all those interested in visiting its plant in Collecchio to get a closer, hands-on look at its technological design approach and production. This will be followed by the re-nowned Gulfood Manufacturing event in partnership with Fava, in Dubai on 9-11 November 2014.

Created by the Dubai World Trade Cen-tre as a spin-off of the famous Gulfood, this fair promises to become the main reference event in the Middle East in the food technology sector. One that is not-to-be-missed and for which very high attendance is expected. Co-partic-ipation with its partner, Fava, will pro-vide Storci with tremendous visibility and their stand will be located in the Italian Pavilion, Hall 1, stand E1-34.With the new year, Storci will take part in CFIA in Rennes (10-12 March), a trade fair with major impact, attracting visitors from throughout France and surrounding countries. Proof of this is the major attendance and long wait-ing list to take part in the event. In the same month, on 24-27 March, Storci will be in Cologne for Anuga FoodTec, the main preparatory event to Ipack-Ima, and an opportunity for a dress rehearsal before the main event at Ipack-Ima/Expo 2015. Anuga FoodTec is one of the most important events in the world for food technologies. It is a prestigious opportunity for all those who wish to invest in know-how, con-tacts and innovation. This means that Storci will also be present in Germany, representing the Storci-BS company

network. As in the past, Storci will wrap up its trade fair calendar by taking part, along with Fava, as one of the leaders at Ipack-Ima, on 19-23 May 2015, an event that is part of the EXPO umbrella of events which, more than ever, is in line with the theme of this international exposition: “Nutrire il Pianeta” – “Feed-ing the Planet”. In addition, Storci, invites users to meet one another on its highly informative website. Storci has always devoted the maximum at-tention to communicating innovations, corporate news, and key markets in many ways: the website www.storci.com is the platform for dynamic insti-tutional information, with all the latest news about technologies, products and company-related communications and activities. In addition to Italian, English and French, a fourth language has re-cently been added—Russian—to meet

the needs of our customers who use the Cyrillic alphabet, thanks to the www.storci.com.ru domain.With the language used online, it is possible to have rapid, constant and detailed updates. In the spe-cialized press, over the years Storci has created a concrete message based on technology and products, through the company’s experience and customers’ word-of-mouth. The result is a coherent press cam-paign which is a pure testimonial written in the real words of satisfied customers.

A s much as half of all the world’s food – amounting to two billion tonnes worth –

is thrown away each year according to research. The packaging industry must take this opportunity to demon-strate the vital role packaging innova-tion can play in providing a solution to this major environmental disaster.According to the study, by the Insti-tution of Mechanical Engineers, be-tween 30 per cent and 50 per cent of the four billion tonnes of food pro-duced around the world each year goes to waste and never makes it on to a plate.The report, Global Food: Waste Not, Want Not, said the waste was being caused by poor storage, strict sell-by dates, bulk offers which encourage shoppers to buy more food than they need and consumer fussiness.In addition, a report by Coldiretti, the Italian National Confederation of Farmers, revealed that every Italian throws away an average of 76kgs of food each year and food waste across the country reaches between five mil-lion and 10 million tonnes annually.Such figures are truly shameful and demonstrate how important it is for

retailers, food manufacturers and the packaging industry to work closer to-gether to drive up innovation in the sector and develop real, robust solu-tions to the food waste problem. As a genuine technical innovation, packaging ticks all the boxes. Plastic packaging is sustainable, reusable and recyclable and delivers on pre-serving, protecting and presenting food at its best. Without packaging the manufacture, transport, distribution and consumption of virtually every consumer good would be impossible. At LINPAC we manufacture a range of sophisticated solutions for the pro-tein, bakery, convenience, foodser-vice and fresh produce markets. Our innovations team strives to develop packaging which is creative and inno-vative and which addresses the food waste issue. At our site in Verona we manufacture a wide range of EPS (Ex-panded Polystyrene) packaging which has proved popular with all links in the Italian supply chain precisely because of its merits in keeping food fresher for longer.Particularly in Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) applications, EPS gives excellent protection and preser-

vation qualities to food. Its insulating properties extend shelf life to reduce food waste and as a result the EPS tray has become a popular choice with manufacturers, retailers and consum-ers alike.Indeed, our EPS LINfresh® Atmo trays for meat and fish have proved so successful in Italy that we recently installed new manufacturing capabili-ties at our Verona site to enable us to extend the range available to our Ital-ian customers. The LINfresh® Atmo 5 and 6 ranges were introduced for pre-packed meat and fish and designed for top-seal MAP applications. The packs combine low carbon EPS with barrier technolo-gy which helps to extend the shelf life of food by up to 300% when compared with traditional non-MAP packaging methods. Moreover, fungi and bacteria cannot easily grow on EPS because of the ma-terial’s construction. Minimal bacteria growth means food will remain fresher for longer which benefits both retail-ers and consumers; for consumers it means they can store food at home for longer and for retailers, extended shelf life brings improved supply chain

efficiency and better inventory and order management. The spongy foam material also helps to cushion food, protecting it from damage during tran-sit, minimising food waste across the supply chain as food makes its way between processor and consumer.When used in conjunction with our complementary lidding film LINtop® PE HB, LINfresh® Atmo customers have the ultimate tray/film combina-tion, giving excellent performance in terms of shelf life, presentation and protection for their meat and fish products.In addition, LINfresh® Atmo trays have strong environmental credentials; as EPS is 98% air the trays are extremely lightweight and have the lightest car-bon footprint on the market today, re-ducing manufacturers’ and retailers’ impact on the environment.The tight economic situation in Italy will continue to drive demand for light-

er and cheaper packaging solutions like EPS. Product manufacturers com-mitted to lowering costs whilst main-taining product quality as rising and volatile raw material and energy costs continue to plague businesses. At the same time, consumer price sensitiv-ity and the shift in consumer spend-ing patterns towards value for money products has become a major driver.Lightweight packaging has become an important cost-cutting measure for Italian manufacturers as it gener-ates savings in transport costs. Added to this is the raised awareness of the impact of packaging on the environ-ment which means eco-friendly pack-aging like EPS is becoming a favoured choice.EPS meets all the requirements of modern packaging with regards to the environment and recycling. It is 100% recyclable and does not produce any greenhouse gases on disposal. It uses

very little energy to manufacture - only 0.1% of total oil consumption is used to make EPS. Plus the energy con-sumption used in its manufacture can be recovered through incineration.Quality, efficient packaging, like our LINfresh® Atmo trays, can signifi-cantly reduce waste across the entire supply chain by giving food a longer shelf life and ensuring food can be transported around the world safely and securely.For food and drink products, long shelf life is a requirement to create low wastage rates between the pack-er filler and consumer. In the context of overall sustainability it is more and more evident that packaging should be regarded as part of the solution, not part of the problem as is some-times the case, and a net contribu-tor to achieving sustainable resource management and food waste reduc-tion.

L abels are important in to-day’s world. Consumers choose the widest range of

goods in the supermarket thanks to their labels, which associate them with the ads seen on TV. Thousands of brands and millions of products, with billions of packages chosen every day with no help from sales staff except at the till.The label is the “silent salesman”. Cosmetics, foodstuffs, pharmaceu-ticals, detergents, drinks; products in vials, bottles, cases and jars, in turn packaged into boxes, packs and pallets for safe transport and storage. Behind all this are the self-adhesive or linerless labelling ma-chine, working swiftly and with per-fect synchronization together with other units of the production and packaging process. To decorate, mark and code each single product with data and expiry information. An overwhelming job, if you think about it, but one which is reliably handled by the ultimate in high-tech equipment. Like ALTECH labellers: labelling machines, in line labelling systems for the most diverse packa-ging types imaginable, and label print&apply units.

The background of ALTECH The first ALTECH labelling machine started production in September 1991. It was the result of the com-mitment of a small group of people whose joint intention was to produ-ce innovative self-adhesive label-ling machines. Advanced Labelling Technologies, ALTECH was the re-sult.Nowadays millions of self-adhesive labels are applied by ALTECH sy-stems every day. From the factory in Bareggio, close to Milan, these labellers reach purchasers located in all five continents. Industrial labellers, self-adhesive labelling machines, linerless sy-stems, sleeve applicators, made up of simple labelling heads that can be integrated into existing packa-ging lines, or complete in-line sy-stems equipped with conveyors and adjusting, orienting, spacing, checking, ejecting and sorting units which meet the customers’ most sophisticated production require-ments. These are complemented by real-time print&apply systems, of which ALTECH is a leading, innova-ting company in the sector of mate-rial identification, codification and

traceability. ALTECH self-adhesive labellers are versatile, flexible, reliable and per-forming, the result of its twenty-year experience as a curious, open and smart market player. A company relying on its expert staff and re-sources to continuously enhance the “Advanced Labelling Technolo-gies” it was named after: ALTECH.

ALTECH missionIn order to build excellent labelling systems, it is important to have ex-

perience, organizational skills and the right know-how, to pay attention to detail and to have a passion for mechanics. Labelling machines are the final element of a packaging line and qualify the previous stages of the process by applying a label that will convey the image of that particular product. For this reason, their manufacturing technology plays a crucial role. But those who turn to ALTECH for their requirements will also en-counter the capacity to listen and learn, since the first impulse to-wards innovation often comes from an ongoing dialogue with customers and the market, a major challenge in the labelling machine industry. “To solve labelling problems in an innovative way” is ALTECH’s tag line.

The value of ALTECH labelling machinesQuality choices lie behind every AL-TECH labelling machine, but they go well beyond Italian and international safety and production regulations (EC, UL, IQ/OQ, GAMP...). ALTECH utilizes only quality materials; high resistance alloys, stainless steel screws and extremely reliable elec-tronic and pneumatic components supplied by world-class companies. Each labelling machine has been designed, when possible and ap-propriate, to be modular and expan-dable. All elements can be readily accessed and are easy to disas-semble. Every detail is always desi-gned, controlled and codified, and every machine is supplied with dia-grams and the list of relevant parts. Suppliers are chosen according to strict criteria to ensure the reliabili-ty as well as the availability of their products throughout the world. The electronic parts have been desig-ned so that all ALTECH industrial systems are user-friendly under any working conditions. For each labelling machine manu-factured by ALTECH, a specific tech-nical file is created and stored in

the company’s archive. It contains its designing criteria, components, and the outcome of the final tests carried out with the products provi-ded by the customer. The machine is supplied with thorough documen-tation, including the relevant use and maintenance instructions and a catalogue of spare parts to provi-de support over time.

ALTECH Range and SolutionsDecorate, inform, promote, codify, seal, identify. All this is possible by applying a label through the auto-matic application. With hundreds of solutions, all tested and reliable, au-tomatic labeling machines ALTECH can do so easily through a system of automatic labeling inserted into the wrapping of products with pre-cision and accuracy, resolving all is-sues related to the shape of goods or characteristics and performance of the packaging line. And if among these solutions there is none that serves the customer, it develops a special ALTECH’s to solve even the most complex problem of labeling.

Its standard range encompasses the following products:

The ALstep labelling head is a com-pact-sized and low-cost applicator for self-adhesive labels, which can be easily integrated into already existing packaging lines. ALstep is based on a robust, reliable mecha-nical structure; it can be fitted into particularly restricted areas, also thanks to the side access web th-reading allowing a fast, easy label change over.ALstep can hold label rolls up to 300 mm of diameter for a long ope-rating time; it is equipped with a se-parate control box with cooling fan which makes it possible to operate it in harsh industrial environments. ALstep comes in both S and M ver-sions, for label widths up to 100 and 200 mm. respectively. Its maximum label dispensing speed is as high as 30 m/min. (20 m/min. in the M ver-sion) thanks to a microprocessor-controlled stepper motor enabling the operator to enter all labelling parameters by means of the display

ALTECH FP 3/14.indd 4 29/05/14 14.11

and function keys. Such parameters are stored on EEPROM and automa-tically recalled by switching on the machine.An E version is particularly cheap.ALritma is a high performance self-adhesive label applicator designed to be integrated into packaging li-nes where production speed and re-liability are primary needs. ALritma is based on an innovative mechani-cal structure which can match great sturdiness with versatility.It is available in three versions, S, M and L, for label widths up to 100, 200 and 300 mm. respectively. The label driving group has been desi-gned to exploit the stepper motor features to the full, by guaranteeing an accurate label positioning even at the highest production speeds; the side access has made the web threading easier. The label applicator is controlled by a powerful microprocessor, with a display “Touch Screen”, which allow for the running of advanced

functions by relieving the opera-tor from complicated mechanical adjustments and considerably spee-ding up the format changeovers.An ALritma X has been recently de-veloped for extremely high perfor-mances.

The ALline is an in-line system which can be configured for the automatic labeling of cylindrical, elliptical or rectangular products; moreover, it can suit specific requirements, such as the application of tamper-proof seals or labelling of singularly sha-ped products. All ALline linear labellers have equal-ly been designed according to cut-ting edge designing criteria which, in strict compliance with CE regula-tions, make every machine suitable for even the harshest of conditions, guarantee great labelling accuracy even at high production speeds and feature a high degree of operator-friendliness, as the start and chan-ge-over operations are particularly

simple and intuitive.In more detail, ALline is based on the “built-in” philosophy, which me-ans that all components are “inclu-ded” in the structure/cabinet, well protected against dirt and acciden-tal bumps. The grey (or stainless steel) structure is extremely sturdy and, thanks to its eye-catching de-sign, it qualifies the whole packa-ging line.

ALcode units are systems for the printing/application of self-adhesi-ve labels. They may be interfaced with a computer and can apply the just-printed label to both still and moving products. For label printing, ALcode can integrate the various thermal transfer engines made from the Japanese SATO (or compatible). Which has specifically developed them for the use on automatic ap-plicators: resolution of 8 or 12 dots/mm., up to 300 mm/sec. of print speed, 4 “, 5 “ or 6 “ of printable width. In every ALcode print&apply

system, the mechanics, pneumatics and electronics have been suitably integrated to meet the typical re-quirements of machines operating in an industrial environment, which need to combine reliability, user-friendliness, accessibility, and inter-change ability. A range of standard devices has been engineered for the application of labels, thus ena-bling ALcode to apply labels in any position and at any linear speed.

The ALpharma labelling systems have been specially devised by AL-TECH for pharmaceutical products. Based on the wide experience gai-ned in designing its innovative la-belling systems, which have proven extremely successful in all market sectors, ALTECH has developed the ALpharma line, whose particularly advanced features fully comply with the strict rules and regulations of the pharmaceutical industry.The ALpharma models are:ALpharma A - for vials and small bot-tles. The labelling is performed from tray to tray, “in-the-star-wheel”. Up to 150 products/minALpharma B - for shaped cases, with both bar code labels (tags, vi-gnettes) and tamper evident angle labels folded along the flaps (up to 200 products/min). ALpharma C - for in-line wrap-around labelling of

small cylindrical bottles. Up to 250/min

ALmatic is a semiautomatic ap-plicator of self-adhesive labels for cylindrical products. Its easy fun-ctioning provides for the manual lo-ads of the product in the labelling position by the operator who activa-tes the control lever. So ALmatic pro-vides to the rotation of the product and to the application of the label till a completely happened adhe-sion. Thanks to the ergonomics of the system and to the presence of templates of comparison ALmatic allows an exact labelling, making easier the manual operations of the placing of the product.

ALsleeve is an automatically-ope-rated system designed to apply pla-stic, heat shrink sleeves to provide body decoration and/or effective tamper evident seals on caps and lids for food, cosmetic and chemi-cal products. Sleeves are obtained from a flat, continuous tubing made of heat shrinkable plastic material (PET, PVC, Polypropylene) wrapped in a roll, which is first cut at a pro-grammable height (or at a specific mark) and then applied onto the product with a synchronized mecha-nism activated by a product tracing photocell.

ALTECH ServiceALTECH machines are used in every industry field, from food to cosme-tics, from pharmaceutics to chemi-stry. Today the company distributes its products on the Italian territory through a direct sale and service structure, whereas a network of 80 dealers, trained both in promotion and in technical service, provide a qualified distribution in 50 different countries in Europe and overseas.All packed products such as food, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, cosme-tics etc. need to be decorated, iden-tified, sealed and marked, in order to meet the requirements for their sale, transportation, storage and handling in general. In the majority of cases the answer is a label, and usually an adhesive label.That is why ALTECH systems are so well diffused, why we are often con-sulted and why our suggestions are often followed. Our Sale Agents are real consultants and our Distributors are trained and motivated professio-nals who are sensitive to customers’ problems and organized to satisfy customers from all points of view.They know about logistics and packaging problems and they know the materials they are dealing with. They can outline the best configu-ration for every labelling problem, matching the standard modules in-cluded in our catalogue in order to offer custom-made solutions, sup-plying nothing more, but above all nothing less than what is needed.Once installed, an ALTECH labelling machine is serviced right through its life by expert technical staff that provides repairs and implemen-tation, if required. This is how the success of our systems translates into success for our distributors, and benefit for our customers, in a synergic relationship of mutual co-operation.

T he official announcement was made in Dusseldorf, Germany, during the Inter-

pack international trade fair held in May 2014. A true revolution that offers important, visible benefits: thanks to the absence of solvents, food products are completely pro-tected from the migration of unde-sirable substances, while maintain-ing excellent quality. The project was developed in collaboration with Comexi, Actega, Sun Chemical, BASF and Dow Chemical

AMB S.p.A., an Italian company that sets the international standard for the production of multilayer plas-tic films destined primarily for food packaging, has created for the first time in Europe a completely water-based production line that elimi-nates the solvents that are current-ly used in this sector in the manner provided for in legislation.

The official announcement by AMB was made in Dusseldorf, Germany, during the Interpack international

trade fair. The Italian company is participating in the fair with a spa-cious exhibition area and a section dedicated to the important innova-tion of water-based production of plastic films.

Water-based production is a true revolution in the world of plastic that offers important, visible ben-efits: thanks to the absence of sol-vents, food products are completely protected from the migration of undesirable substances. This is

THE ITALIAN COMPANY AMB LAUNCHES WATER-BASED PRODUCTION

The first company in Europe to eliminate solvents from the production of plastic films for food

AMB FP 3/14.indd 3 27/06/14 17:16

achieved while maintaining excel-lent production quality, including identical colours, graphical versatil-ity, and the potential for attractive solutions and finishes. Water-based technology represents an undeni-able competitive advantage for all companies that offer foods made with superior quality ingredients (for example organic or baby food). It also protects the environment and provides an early solution to increasingly restrictive packaging regulations.

AMB water-based production is an ambitious project that has come to fruition after a total investment of 5 million euros and two years of intense effort. Collaboration with high-calibre international partners was essential in achieving this ob-jective. These partners included: Comexi for the equipment, Actega and Sun Chemical for the inks, and BASF and Dow Chemical for the glues and adhesives. The work group was united by a single objec-tive – to perfect a production meth-od that eliminates atmospheric solvent emissions while maintain-ing the excellent quality of the final product, particularly with respect to the colour and finishes.

Bruno Marin, the President and CEO of AMB, stated: “Water-based print-ing offers clear advantages for the environment and the consumer, but

it is not at all common in the plastics sector. In Europe, in fact, it is non-existent due primarily to problems relating to colour transfer, an issue that solvents have always enabled manufacturers to avoid. Taking into consideration the increasingly strict regulations regarding atmospheric emissions and staying true to our nature as an innovative company, we decided to invest in water-based production. After two years of work by a team of a dozen engineers and specialized technicians, as well as our invaluable international part-ners, the purchase of new, suitably modified machinery and the con-struction of a new 2,000 m2 plant, we can say that water-based pro-duction is not only possible but that the quality is equal to or better than

that achieved with solvents. Finally, there is no increase in production times”.

Marin continued: “The water-based project is a positive example of in-dustrial development, made pos-sible through collaboration among companies that believe innovation is a fundamental principle. This is not a reaction to a legal obligation, but rather a response to a global change with respect to environmen-tal sustainability, a change that will increasingly affect every industry. Those who are ready will be able to capitalize on their own competitive advantage. In addition, final con-sumers have developed a greater interest in knowing how the prod-ucts they purchase are made, in-cluding the packaging. In this case as well, being able to completely exclude the possibility of solvent contamination thanks to the use of water-based production will make the difference”.

Water-based production has al-ready begun at the AMB plant, but it is still in the experimental stage. This stage will continue until next autumn, when AMB inaugurates the first water-based production facility in Europe for manufacturing multi-layer plastic films.

A llen Coding (www.AllenCo-ding.com) announces the global launch of two new

thermal transfer printers designed for the unique challenges of emer-ging markets and entry-level varia-ble print applications. The new sy-stems combine quality print with up to 40% cost savings and true real-ti-me, variable Unicode performance in over 125 languages.

The newest members of Allen Coding´s new XL line of ther-mal transfer systems, the 53XLc and 25 XLi provide quality, varia-ble print performance on vertical and horizontal form fill and seal (VFFS & HFFS) packaging lines. Barcodes/2D data matrix codes,

sell by/expiration dates, lot/ batch numbers, production date/ time, source codes, and other variable information can be printed on a wide variety of different packaging substrates including bags, pillow packs, bottles/vials, cartons, trays, blister packs, sachets and envelope packs.

The 25XLiThe 25XLi utilizes miniature ribbon for precise printing in small areas at up to 40% cost savings compared to alternative 53mm thermal transfer systems. This cost-efficiency makes the 25XLi comparable in pricing to hot stamp date coding technologies but with all the added benefits of variable, digital print making the

system an ideal entry-level variable print technology. The system provi-des a print height of up to 32 x 40 mm.

The 53XLcThe 53XLc provides a new conti-nuous print alternative for vertical and horizontal form fill and seal (VFFS & HFFS) packaging lines. The system is extremely cost-effective, up to 35% less expensive than tra-ditional thermal printer technolo-gies without compromising print or system quality. The 53XLc features a special ribbon-save mechanism that ensures minimum gaps betwe-en labels, resulting in up to a 50% reduction in ribbon waste depen-dent on application.

TWO NEW THERMAL TRANSFER PRINTERS FROM ALLEN CODING PROVIDE UP TO 40% COST SAVINGS & TRUE REAL-TIME, VARIABLE UNICODE PERFORMANCESystems well-suited for emerging markets and entry-level variable print applications

Featuring elegantly simple and dura-ble industrial desi-gns and advanced real-time variable Unicode capabili-ties, the XL series of thermal transfer printers from Allen Coding are ideally suited for the uni-que needs of emer-ging markets and entry-level variable print applications.

ALLEN FP 3/14.indd 3 02/09/14 14:33

True Unicode Performance, Flexible Features & Value Ad-ded ServicesThe Allen Coding XL series con-sists of four thermal transfer prin-ters (53XLc, 25XLi, 53XL80u and 53XL40u ) that all feature highly durable, industrial designs with up to 600 meters of ribbon capacity for extended use with minimal downti-me. All four systems provide high-speed printing of up to 450 prints per minute at 5mm print height with true Unicode performance, flexible features and important value ad-ded services.

True Unicode Printing With Multi-Language User InterfaceWhile many thermal transfer technologies advertise that they are ‘Unicode-ready’ they often mean that language characters are used as locked images. This is not the same as true real-time, variable print Unicode capabilities.

Allen Coding´s XL printers were specially designed to provide real-ti-me and dynamic date coding, offset calculation, counter, formula and variable field printing in over 125 languages. Dual interior processors (one for printing and one for exter-

nal communications) ensure high-speed performance despite the complexities of real time variable printing in many languages.

In addition, the printer’s iView user interface can be configured in ten standard different languages (English, German, Spanish, Por-tuguese, French, Italian, Swedish, Korean, Russian and Arabic). Ad-ditional user-interface languages are regularly added to this list and specific languages can be added on request.

Flexible FeaturesThe XL series was designed with a number of highly customizable features to ensure optimized per-formance in a wide variety of in-dustrial environments. Users can select between 3 inch (handheld), 7 inch and 10.4 inch (desktop) con-trol units with varying performance capabilities. iView color touch scre-ens feature user-friendly graphical interfaces for convenient multi-printer operation. Dual processors, Ethernet and USB connectivity en-sure high speed performance. Hun-dreds of standard frame options are available and supported by cu-stom frame capabilities. There are

also a variety of software options in-cluding Codesoft and Allen Coding’s own a:design, a software platform designed for optimal performan-ce with XL series printers. Custom software is also available and the user interface is designed to make upgrades seamless.

Value-Added ServicesXL printers feature an elegantly sim-ple and durable design which ensu-res simple installation. Allen Coding provides training and installation support worldwide at customer ve-nues or at one of their in-house faci-lities. Allen Coding also has advan-ced expertise in film chemistry and provides complimentary support in helping users select the optimal film/ribbon material for each uni-que application.

The 53XLc and 25XLi were first pre-sented by Allen Coding in Hall 12 Booth E51 of Interpack 2014 (May 8-14, Dusseldorf, Germany). The systems are sold throughout by Al-len Coding throughout Europe and Africa and by sister companies from the ITW Marking & Coding Group in the rest of the world (Diagraph Ma-laysia in Asia and Diagraph in both North and South America).

M ore than 4500 visitors, coming from hundreds of different companies,

could appreciate the machines showed at Coesia stand at Inter-pack, located on over 2000 mq2 and representative of 10 out of 14 companies of the group. Among these AcmaVolpak, company spe-cialized in designing and commer-cialization of solutions for fast- moving consumer goods, whose machines raised the interest of over 1100 visitors during the seven- days exhibition.

The strength of the group The success of AcmaVolpak and the Coesia Group’s participation to the Düsseldorf exhibition goes beyond simple numbers. The on view solu-tions, in addition to raising the in-terest of clients, workers in sector and specialized media, proved the potentialities of a group capable of operating in an integrated and glob-al perspective, giving tailor made solutions to the four corners of the Earth, maintaining a constant con-tact with the client, up to follow him

step by step over all the develop-mental stages of the product, from the creation of the packaging to its introduction on the market.

Acma: advanced technology for the fast moving consumer goods One of the most meaningful pres-ence in the Coesia booth was the complete line for coffee, made by the Acma Qi320 capsule filler, in line with the brand new Acma MiniWrap-per and the R.A Jones Legacy3, the latter dedicated to the secondary packaging, all moved through Flex-Link conveyor systems. It was a per-fect example of integration between technological solutions devolped by different group’s companies, ap-plied to a very important and growing sector such as the coffee. A great interest was also gained by the Tecnomeccanica T4 Modula, a machine to realize double chamber “knotted” bags. Last but not least, the solutions for the confectionery and bakery sectors, namely: the Sp1 flowpacker, in line with an ad-vanced feeding unit, and the M888, patented multi style automatic

wrapping machine, both fast and flexible, suitable for a wide range of pre- formed candies and chocolate products.

Volpak solutions for flexible packagingVolpak machines were equally ap-preciated because of their top per-formances, as well as for their cus-tomizing options. The technological field in which the Spanish company operates – the development of flex-ible packagings – has many appli-cations in such sectors such as the Food and Chemical, and it requires high specialization and flexibility. Such features were shown both by the Volpak SC- 190, part of the new range of HFFS machines with con-tinuous motion technology, and by the Volpak SI- 280, designed to maximize overall equipment effec-tiveness, capable of working also in triplex configuration. Volpak, thorough is brand Enflex, presented also the STD- 22, the ideal equip-ment for the client who looks for ease of use and low maintenance cost.

H ISTORY“The future belongs to those who believe in the

beauty of their dreams”. Eleanor Roosvelt

CIESD Srl was founded in 1979 as the realization of a dream of Franc-esco Petrillo, who with it created a family company that is now re-nowned in Italy as well as interna-tionally, and who has managed to pass on the values that have always distinguished his concern on the market not only to his daughters Manuela and Marica, but also to all CIESD’s employees.

PRODUCTIONCIESD is a leading Italian Company in the fields of twistable film produc-tion, rotogravure printing (including cold seal applications) and lami-nation of various films for the food sector (confectionary, dairy, bakery, snacks, coffee, drinks, etc.). Over the years, the demands of the mar-ket and a willingness to offer an ever increasingly painstaking, precise and specialized service have ena-bled CIESD to invest in new produc-tion processes, such as the metal-lization and the de-metallization of flexible films of various types, focus-ing, on one hand on independence from outsourcers, and on the other, on expanding its product portfolio.During these years, the Company’s drive to devise new and appeal-ing solutions has enabled it to de-velop two special processes, both of which were presented at Inter-pack 2014 in Düsseldorf: PER-FECT REGISTER DE-METALLISATION

and PEARLESCENT PRINTING on various packaging types. Both pro-cesses enhance the prestige of the packaged product, increasing its visibility and drawing the consum-er’s attention.

QUALITYThe entire production process, from the select raw materials to the fin-ished product, is closely followed and controlled in such a way as to guarantee the quality of the final product, which is also guaranteed by UNI EN ISO 9001 and BRC-IoP certifications.

ENVIRONMENTCIESD has always been committed to protecting the environment, zero-ing its aerial emissions and manag-ing all production processes, and the waste generated by them, in an ethical and responsible manner.

ADDED VALUEChoosing CIESD does not just mean choosing a supplier, but rather choosing a partner committed to

the customer’s day-to-day necessi-ties, guaranteeing professionalism, reliability, punctuality and coopera-tion.CIESD is a dream of a family that continues to prosper, but most im-portantly, it is a reality to be experi-enced and appreciated.

CT PACK Primary Packaging Line for Stacked biscuits One of the latest developments of CT Pack is an innovative packaging line for biscuits in stacks in operation in East Europe. With more than 3000 incoming products the solution is one of the most space saving systems in relation to its ca-pacity. The products coming in rows are spread and streamed into two packaging legs.Each packaging leg handles half of the production, providing for the merging of

CT PACK FP 3/14.indd 4 23/07/14 11:05

the flows and stacking of the products in order to create 4 product stacks and finally the primary wrapping of the stacked products, by means of the well-known and proven MMH2 dual-lane flowrap-ping machine.The two parallel legs develop the foot print in a sin-gle direction way thus reducing the impact on the layout and allowing single operator manning. The line, as per CT Pack’s construction style, is totally made in stainless steel material and equipped with the most rigid safety rules and hygienic stand-ards, resulting in a simple and user friendly pack-aging line.

CT PACK Complete Packaging Line for Extruded Ice CreamA very important and strategic complete packaging line has been recently commissioned in USA for the ice cream field. CT Pack designed a complete line which provides all the operations from the na-ked product feeding to the primary packaging and to the case packing. The line receives more than 600 products per minute, in rows, from the freez-ing tunnel and distributes them to two double-lane flowpack machines.Then the line performs the loading of boxes by a robotic top loading system and conveys the boxes to the robotic case packer where the loading of outer cases takes place in a very flexible way.All kinds of containers (trays, boxes, outer cases, etc.) are handled by CT Pack machines for erect-ing, filling and closing

Next EventIn the next months CT Pack will attend two important exhibitions:› Eurasia Packaging 2014 in Istanbul, from the 18th to the 21st of September› PMMI Pack Expo (South hall, Stand 4071) in Chicago where CT Pack will present for the first time a great innova-tion for the primary packaging feeding system. CT Pack is pleased to invite you to visit our stand on this occasion.

T his machine is used to auto-matically feed one or more seamers with unwrapped

sticks of ends that were previously shrink-wrapped with plastic film or ends in paper bags.

The machine takes the sticks of ends from the hopper.

In the paper project, a knife cuts the paper bag longitudinally and it is then ejected into a collecting bag.

In the plastic project, a hot air knife cuts the plastic film longitudinally and it is then ejected into a collect-ing bag.

After that, the expulsion device ex-erts a constant pressure to push the ends to the seamer.

This system increases production ca-pacity and provides for a perfect cut of the film on both sides of the stick, avoiding any damage to the product and allowing a costant outflow of the ends.

The standard hopper assures 50 min-

utes’ autonomy of continuous produc-tion (of ø 73mm standard sanitary ends at 600 e.p.m.).

Corima International Machinery can supply a wide range of convey-ors connecting the outlet of the un-wrapper to the seamer to meet the customer’s specific requirements.

Optional: double hopper providing autonomy of 1 hour; and Ergonomic hopper to make loading easier for the operator.

END TYPE: standard sanitary ends, easy open ends, aerosol bottoms and domes, general line components.

END DIMENSION: ø 52 mm (200) to 155 mm (603).

STICK LENGTH: from 250 mm to 1200 mm.

OUTPUT: up to 5 rolls/minute.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS: 10 Kw, 380 V, 50/60 Hz, 3-phase. (easily adaptable to other standard)

AIR CONSUMPTION: 400-600 l/minute at 6 Bar (average).

A n advanced intralogistics system devised by CSB-Sys-tem International for lead-

ing Swiss cheese producer Züger Frischkäse AG in Oberbüren has au-tomated the company’s stock con-trol process while delivering a 50% time saving in picking speeds.Züger Frischkäse produces a range of cheeses including mozzarella, feta, ricotta and mascarpone. The company’s production is already characterised by a high degree of automation and fully integrated information technology, and CSB-System was asked to modernise its intralogistics to provide seamless link to the picking and replenish-ment processes.The CSB-System solution combines high bay storage with mobile pick-ing. Every pallet in the high bay storage is linked to the system with its minimum sell-by date and lot

number. This ensures that bays are filled according to the first-in, first-out principle. In addition, the system provides an extra degree of control using mas-ter data from the ERP software. For example, the pallet height and the maximum weight can be checked. The master data can also specify whether the item first needs to be forwarded to a quick freezing posi-tion, and in which segment of the warehouse and at what height it is stored. The inventory management com-puter communicates with the CSB-System via defined interfaces to handle the automatic removal of pallets for replenishment during the picking process. Picking itself is paperless, us-ing wireless technology to directly transmit to touch panels on the electric forklifts. The screen shows

in which area of the picking zone the pallet with the required product can be found.Using Bluetooth scanners, the pallet label is scanned, the cor-responding number of items re-moved, and the pick quantity con-firmed. If a pallet is emptied, a new one is requisitioned automatically from the high bay storage, ensuring ongoing replenishment in the pack-ing zone and that customer orders can be processed very quickly and efficiently.Overall Züger reports a 50% saving compared to its previous operation while the error rate has been mini-mised.“We have elevated this area to a completely new level,” comments deputy CEO Markus Züger. “Today we are in a position to respond quickly and flexibly to customer de-mands.”

I shida Europe has developed a range of entry-level weigher/bagmaker combination units

which offer an economic, medium speed solution for food manufactu-rers, thus delivering a fast payback on a reduced investment cost while ensuring consistent weights, pack quality and seal integrity.The Ishida First Range comprises either a 10 or 14 head CCW-SE economy multihead weigher with an intermittent motion Astro-S-103 bagmaker or a 14-head economy weigher with a rotary motion At-

las-113 packaging machine.Whilst the Atlas option is ideal for handling pillow bags at speeds of up to 90 bpm, the Astro will usual-ly be specified for speeds up to 70 bpm, offering in addition to pillow bags also gusseted and block bot-tom bag formats with minimum change parts and simple machine maintenance.Both the Atlas and Astro bagma-kers feature servo-motors and sof-tware controlled variable seal time, jaw temperature and pressure that allow the handling of many film

types, including standard, metalli-sed, recyclable and biodegradable. Stripping plates clear the seal area before sealing which ensures good pack quality, and servo driven and vacuum assisted pull down belts enable accurate and consistent bag lengths to maximise film use and optimise pack presentation. A user-friendly operator interface includes integrated self-diagnostics and a colour touch-screen. This allows easy and rapid transfers between bag types and film, and minimises downtime

D innissen Process Techno-logy specializes in the de-velopment and production

of process technologies for the feed, food, pharma and chemical industri-es. Dinnissen offers a wide range of crushers, hammer mills, roller mills, and knife mills for grinding, crushing and micronizing a wide variety of in-gredients. Dinnissen’s newest ham-mer mill is equipped with increased screen surface, extra-large grinding panels, and an automatic screen exchanger in combination with a wide range of screens. As a result, the new-est hammer mill provides clients with significantly increased grinding capa-city, less downtime, and greater flexi-bility. This innovation will be present during VIV, Interpack, Schüttgut and Victam coming months.

Ingenious screen panel construction results in increased screen surfaceHammer mills are especially suited for grinding soft to medium-hard products such as grains, raw ingredients con-taining proteins, and minerals down to particle sizes of between 3 mm and 150 µ. In Dinnissen’s hammer mills, freely suspended hammers ro-tate at high speed inside the grinding chamber. Depending upon the com-ponents being ground down, single hammers or double hammers can be used. The centrifugal force produced by the rotating hammers crushes the product into smaller particles against special grinding panels on the inside of the grinding chamber, after which the processed product passes throu-

gh special screening panels before exiting the hammer mill. The screen surface and perforations determine the capacity, quality and effective-ness of the screening process, which is why Dinnissen has made significant investments in developing innovative solutions in this area.

Increased surface area of grinding panels providesgreater grinding capacityDinnissen’s new hammer mill featu-res an ingenious and innovative de-sign which significantly increases the surface area of the grinding panels as well as screen panels inside the ham-mer mill. This results in increased grin-ding as well as screening capacity. In addition, the screen storage facility is fitted with an extra-wide chamber, ma-king it easier to carry out maintenance and replace damaged screens whene-ver necessary. This in turn reduces downtime during maintenance stops and increases the overall efficiency of the new hammer mill. The maximum speed of the new system is 1500 re-volutions per minute, which means that it has a longer usable lifetime and is more energy-efficient than its pre-decessors. The built-in magnets and traps for unwanted hard objects also prevent damage to the screens from the presence of iron objects or other hard materials. This also increases the efficiency of the new hammer mill at a very low noise level.

Mechatronic screen exchanger offers optimum flexibilityDinnissen has designed a new and

innovative screen changing system for its newest hammer mill, which offers increased speed, ease-of-use and re-liability to clients who regularly switch between different ingredients and product specifications. The automatic screen exchanger has enough space for 4 to 6 sets of different screen pa-nels, making it possible for the system to automatically select the appropriate screen perforation and thereby grind the raw ingredients into the desired product within optimum structure and particle size. The mechatronic screen exchanger system automatically choo-ses and places the correct set of scre-en panels in the hammer mill. After completion of the production process, the screen exchanger also removes and stores the set of screens within 40 seconds. This makes it possible to change from one set of screens to another very quickly and efficiently and greatly reduces downtime. It also greatly reduces the risk of the wrong screen panels being used. The auto-matic screen exchanger can also be fitted with a screen detection system, making it possible to identify and re-port the right selection to the control room.

M ilk is broadly acknowl-edged as a complete staple: nature created a

unique way of feeding babies safely and completely, providing nutrients, proteins and essential fats in equal proportions. Yet, milk has a cardi-nal role also in adults’ lives since it contains essential vitamins and mineral salts.

The only limitations to its use are to be connected to its own exceptional features: since this is a food rich in nutrients, it may well be attacked and contaminated by microorgan-ism, pathogenic and not, and even when it undergoes thermal treat-ment, its life cannot be longer than 6 days for standard pasteurization, and 25 days for ESL.

Moreover, since milk is also made of 90% water, volumes to be trans-ported are relevant and transport itself may be expensive in economi-cal and environmental terms. It fol-lows that most consumers depend on local suppliers and fresh milk market is subject to substantially important variations.

UHT high-temperature treatment enables from the one hand to ex-tend the shelf-life of the product, while from the other hand it reduc-es its vitamin content and changes its sensorial profile: UHT milk is characterized by so-called “cooked” taste, due to sugar caramelization, volumes to be transported remain the same and therefore the prob-lems connected to the consumption of fresh milk remain.

Thanks to spray drying, milk is more available in terms of geography and shelf-life: milk powder can be trans-ported everywhere inexpensively, on account of its lower weight and volume, and then preserved up to two years while maintaining its nu-tritional and sensorial characteris-tics unaltered.

Increasing demand of special prod-ucts (infant food, nutraceuticals, functional food) with special char-acteristics generates new challeng-es for plants manufacturers such as ICF & Welko: thanks to its extensive experience in processing plants for the food industry, especially for the dairy and beverage sectors, this company provides turnkey solutions for the production of any kind of milk powder while granting quality, production efficiency and energy saving, in full compliance with the strictest international hygiene, safe-ty and environmental standards.

Owing to its background as an engi-neering company, ICF & Welko de-signs and builds tailor-made plants, offers utmost process flexibility, making use of all automation lev-els. It also provides technical, tech-nological and engineering support by interacting with all the players of the dairy business, from well-known multinationals to small firms com-mitted to competing in the market thanks to a winning idea or first-class product. Making use of its widespread assis-tance network and partnerships, in any part of the world, ICF & Welko guarantees assistance within 24 hours from the request.

Its pride is customer’s satisfaction, real and concrete, since most of its turnover consists of customers wanting to increase their produc-tion capacity, improve quality, diver-sify their investments by extending their product range.

T HE PROJECTTo develop an alternative monolayer PET bottle to al-

ternative to multilayer HDPE and carton for ESL and UHT milk to de-crease the production cost.

THE SOLUTIONP.E.T. Engineering and Novapet, in collaboration with Husky Injec-tion Molding Systems, work togeth-er on barrier materials and addi-tives to make PET be the most suitable material for any liquid product, especially for sensitive ones which require full light pre-vention to preserve all the prop-erties and taste.

At the same time, P.E.T. Engineer-ing is focused on the reduction of production costs while maintaining a high mechanical performance of the container.

The result of this cooperation is an ultra-light bottle for milk weigh-ing only 19.5g for extended shelf life milk and 21.5g for UHT, which means, respectively,15.2% and 10.4 % less than the weight of the lightest containers currently on the market.

This new light-weight, together with a combined study on preform and container, comes also from the use of DCU, an alternative to multilayer preforms currently used in the dairy industry. DCU, by Novapet, allows the same barrier performance of a multilayer preform but with lower machinery costs because it is an additive that can easily be added to PET using a

single-stage process. The great sim-plicity of its injection process leads to a reduced production waste and the light-weighting permits less production costs per bottle. From today the monolayer PET bot-tle is a real alternative to multilayer

HDPE and carton for ESL and UHT milk.The 1L milk bottle with DCU was among the finalists in the Best packaging innovation category in the 2014 World Dairy Innovation Awards.

C ompanies operating in the Food & Beverage sector have to face a more and

more competitive market and are re-quired to offer a constantly diversified range of products, in order to meet the consumer’s disparate exigencies. Therefore, the solutions implemented by packaging machine manufacturers are expected to be innovative, cost-ef-fective, efficient, sustainable and able to realize appealing packages.Smiflexi range of automatic packers provides the end user all the technical and functional specifications required to manage production cycles efficiently and economically and to enable quick switch from one format to another.Among the new opportunities offered by Smiflexi division there is the innova-tive Easy-Load cardboard blanks mag-azine, an accessory device (available both for the wrap-around case packers of the WP series and the heat-shrink-wrappers of the SK series) which fea-tures considerable advantages from an operating and functional point of view. With Easy-Load the operator can easily load cardboard blanks - stacked hori-zontally in uniform groups - because the feeding belt of the magazine is positoned at the same working height as the packer’s infeed belt, rather than under it. The innovative solution de-vised by SMI eliminates the disadvan-tages related to the manual loading of the cardboard blanks magazine, which force the operator to bend his/her body continuously to place the blanks in the

bottom part of the machine. The op-erator just places the cardboard blank stacks on the outermost roller convey-or so that the automatic control system can perform all the subsequent steps. Thanks to specific sensors, the layout and feed of the cardboard blanks on the conveyor belts fitted with the mo-torized roller and their loading into the packer’s magazine is, in fact, fully au-tomated. Moreover, with the innovative Easy-Load system, even the unloading of the cardboard blanks is performed au-tomatically, after processing a certain format, through a series of steps car-ried out in reverse order as compared to the loading steps.

Fridge packs realized by SMI wrap-around packersThe technology used in the Easy-Load magazine also features the great ad-vantage of ensuring fluid and constant picking operations with a wide range of cardboard blanks having a thickness between 0.5 mm and 5 mmThanks to the innovative Easy-Load cardboard blanks magazine, Smiflexi wrap-around packers of the WP are able to meet multiple exigencies: they can pack different types of products (glass, PET, cans, etc.) in different kinds of containers, of large or small size: kraft-paper boxes, microwave or corrugated cardboard boxes.Smiflexi wrap-around packers of the WP series can pack bottles and cans in cardboard boxes, called Fridge Packs,

specifically designed to fit into the lim-ited space offered by fridge compart-ments. Thanks to an innovative design, a pre-scored breakaway panel allows the consumer to conveniently take out of the package just the bottle or can he actually needs. The box thus becomes a dispenser of the products included in the packs. The technology used in the Smiflexi “Easy-Load” magazine features the great advantage of using Kraft-paper with a wrap-around packer. Kraft paper ensures a solid packaging, despite its reduced thickness. The polish, white surface of kraft paper is an optimal solution, ensuring excellent printabil-ity and appealing graphics, in order to draw the customer’s attention on the products displayed on the shelves at the sales outlets.

C elebrating the group’s 50th anniversary, Süd-pack Verpackungen

GmbH & Co. KG presented a new di-mension of film at interpack 2014. The company also showcased high-performance films designed for secure sealing even with contami-nated seams, and films that fit the product like a second skin. One of this year’s highlights is a new mem-ber of the re-sealable family Multi-peel: Multipeel on Mono APET.

Innovation from Southern Germany: VeraplexVeraplex is the main focus of the company’s presentation at inter-pack. This new type of film was de-signed and developed by packaging specialists based on a unique tech-nology. “Veraplex achieves an out-standing thickness-function perfor-mance ratio that is unprecedented in today’s market. It’s the film of the future,” said Südpack Managing Partner Johannes Remmele. “In-terpack is the packaging industry’s leading trade event and a perfect place to introduce our new film.”

Veraplex combines maximum prod-uct protection with a minimum amount of material. With a thick-ness of just 25 µm, the film is ex-tremely thin, yet offers maximum puncture resistance with an ex-tremely high oxygen and aroma bar-rier. The film is suitable for products with high mechanical requirements and for aggressive bulk products.

Veraplex uses far less material and saves valuable resources. The film is well suited for lamination with paper, which also improves eco sus-tainability by reducing the amount of film required while maintaining the same product protection prop-erties. Veraplex combined with pa-per also convinces when it comes to product presentation. The renewa-ble resource ensures stability while

maintaining a natural look and feel. Consumers instantly recognize the ecological advantages of the pack-aging – a persuasive factor at point of sale.

Sealing layer expertise The name SafePeel stands for top films for trays. Its special sealing medium works perfectly with con-taminated seams. The packaging

can be peeled open for maximum consumer comfort. SafePeel film is also characterized by excellent anti-fog properties, which prevents unsightly water drops.

Südpack also introduces two new tray films to the international trade show audience at interpack. Safe-Peel Hot and CanLid Peel offer out-standing sealing properties and are designed for use in ovens and mi-crowaves. Thanks to excellent seal-ing properties, SafePeel Hot can be pasteurized and is ideal for conveni-ence products. Polypropylene (PP) is used as a sealing medium in the tray and top film. SafePeel Hot is ex-tremely durable and fulfills the high-est safety requirements, even with multi-chamber trays.

Easy-to-use CanLid Peel top film for trays offers outstanding barrier properties and is extremely dura-ble. The white top film offers the best possible visual cover, protects the packaged product from light and enables a wide variety of eye-catching designs to attract atten-tion at point of sale. Both SafePeel Hot and CanLid Peel offer a long processing window and can be pas-teurized to prevent germ formation, thus extending product shelf life.

Multi S V top film is another innova-tion from Südpack designed to com-pletely seal the product. The top film tightly fits the product without changing its shape or form. Multi S V offers outstanding barrier prop-erties and is puncture-resistant. At the same time, the film is highly transparent and offers a clear view of the product. Südpack supplies both the top film Multi S V and base films, which enables the company to perfectly match properties. Pack-ages can be easily and smoothly opened without forming threads.

Expertise in re-sealable packagingSüdpack further presented a new development in the established Multipeel series: Multipeel on Mono APET. The re-sealable film can be processed on all thermoforming machines and is particularly tear-resistant. Multipeel on Mono APET is easy to re-seal thanks to its very rigid material. At the same time, the top and base films are extremely thin, which saves weight and stor-age space while providing the ac-customed protection for packaged goods and efficient handling, for instance during roll changes. The barrier properties of Multipeel on Mono APET can be flexibly adapted to meet the requirements of the

packaged goods. This extends their shelf life and facilitates optimal gas exchange, especially for cheese products. The packaging is persua-sive at point of sale thanks to its brilliant shine and clear view of the product inside. Packaging solutions with Multipeel on Mono APET use far less material and are especially suitable for manufacturers that sup-port eco sustainability. The amount of material in the overall packaging can be reduced by up to 20 percent without sacrificing product protec-tion.

Südpack Medica: Maximumquality and safety Südpack Medica, a subsidiary of the Südpack Group, presented a wide range of medical films and sterile packaging products at inter-pack 2014. These include blister lids, peelable 3-side sealed pouch-es, lids for blister trays and tubu-lar bags, rolled goods for thermo-forming applications and an array of customer-specific solutions. All products are manufactured in ISO-certified clean rooms.

Südpack in briefThe Südpack Packaging Group is based in Ochsenhausen, Germany. Founded in 1964 by Alfred Rem-mele, the family-managed business operates 22 sales offices and pro-duction sites in Germany, France and Switzerland. Südpack specializ-es in hard and soft films and plastic bags. Films are printed using both flexographic and rotogravure print-ing processes.

A t PACK EXPO International in Chicago, Luceo Inspec-tion Worldwide will present

the new generation of ThermoSe-cure L. ThermoSecure L is a food packaging inspection machine that detects and rejects all packaging with poor quality sealing and with labeling or marking errors. Hygienic and ergonomic principles are at the core of the design for this new ma-chine.

The requirements of food manu-facturers inspired the design of the fourth generation.This new machine was designed in accordance with the requirements of food industry manufacturers and their environments along two fundamental aspects: hygienic prin-ciples and ease of use and opera-tion. This fully stainless steel chas-sis features inclined planes for the drainage of washing water. The new machine contains no glass parts, which is in line with the recom-mendations of the HACCP directive. Many components of the machine are EHEDG-certified.Ergonomics and functionality direct-ed the design of this new machine. Users will appreciate the machine’s operation in

production, featuring the automatic change of packaging format by a motorized system with no manual settings required. During the clean-ing phases, the conveyor belts can be removed in under a minute with-out tools.

A new chassis incorporating the per-formances of Luceo systems have been tried and tested on 200+ pack-aging linesIn Europe and America, ThermoSe-cure inspects and tracks all packag-ing, archives important production data and images to prevent rework operations on defective packaging,

complaints or even product recalls due to packaging integrity prob-lems. ThermoSecure is installed either at the end of the line after the weighing and metal detection stations or in a white room with an IP66 sealing index when the final inspection must be as close as pos-sible to the sealing.

The new generation of sensors will be presented on the Luceo booth # S4368.

A t Interpack 2014, Cavanna Packaging Group, a world-wide leader in integrated

solutions for food and non-food flow-wrapping showcased a num-ber of highly innovative solutions for wrapping equipment. Cavanna Packaging Group was pleased to present to its visitors ways of how you can reduce hidden costs, planned down time and also improve cash flow thanks to differ-ent applications developed to sup-port its customers during Total Cost of Ownership analysis. The biggest aim of the company was to show how important it is to choose a re-liable partner for a packaging ma-chine investment, one that makes it less expensive.In the Hall 14 Stand A14 Cavanna was proud to show four different packaging systems for products with irregular and regular shapes, for biscuits in piles and for pharma-ceutical products. In particular the company showed and demonstrated a new robotic vision system “Ring” that can rec-ognize shape, position, the colour of incoming products and making piles.

F ully committed to freshcheeseKingmar originated from

the JH-Group which is located in Holland and specialising in metal and machine construction (for fur-ther information, see www.jurry-hekkingmetaal.nl). Based on many years of experience with machines for fresh cheese production, King-mar has been founded as a new brand. Jurry Hekking, the owner of Kingmar, says: “Of course there are machines for producing and processing fresh cheese. Unfortu-nately, most of them are not espe-cially designed for it. Kingmar is dif-ferent, because it takes care of the product´s fragility.”

Very product- and user-friendlyAll Kingmar machines have been extensively tested by experienced cheese manufacturers concerning their ease of use and functionality. Wherever necessary, adjustments have been executed. This ensures that Kingmar machines are, in the end, a real big improvement in com-parison to current systems. Another major advantage of Kingmar is that a complete system is purchased. Once bought, there won´t be any

surprises after installation and the production can start right away. The complete range can be used in combination with other machines or on its own.

Kingmar filter pressThe Kingmar filter press is a special system to produce fresh cheese in a so-called “hang up” way by using filter press bags. As soon as the bags are filled with the product, the side walls of the press slowly move

towards each other. The percent-age of dry matter determines the required time. Being built of stain-less steel, the machine is very ro-bust and offers a powerful operat-ing system.

More continuity and efficiencyThe bags can be filled either manu-ally or semi-automatically. In that case, the filling will be even more consistent. Also, the machine can be connected to CIP cleaning after-

Kingmar. The specialisT for fresh cheese machinesMany dairies provide fresh cheese in their product range. The market is growing steadily, but the machines lagged behind for a long time until the foundation of Kingmar. The Dutch company makes its mark by developing and manufacturing machines and production lines purpose-built for fresh cheese. The emphasis is set on a good cost-performance ratio in terms of low investment and low maintenance cost for powerful machines.

wards. Therefore, during the whole production process human hands are no longer required. This reduces the risk of contamination and saves labour. For this reason, the semi-automatic filter press of Kingmar is an ideal solution for manufacturers who aim to produce fresh cheese in a more efficient and consistent way.

Kingmar washerAfter emptying, the filter press bags can be easily cleaned with the King-mar washer. This industrial ma-chine is especially manufactured for a large number of bags to be cleaned and disinfected in an effi-cient and quick manner. The wash-ing drum is designed for preserving the life-time of the filter press bags. For ease of use, the washing pro-grams can be individually compiled. All in all, the Kingmar washer is an indispensable machine for hygienic production.

Kingmar filling machine and mixerThe Kingmar filling machine is de-signed to quickly and hygienically process large amounts of fresh cheese into smaller portions. By using the justification “height”, the machine can be even easier filled and emptied. The Kingmar mixer al-lows for merging fresh cheese with ingredients like e.g. herbs. There has been a lot of attention paid to the requirement of preserving the specific structure of the product while mixing it. By that way, an ex-

cellent machine has been invented. Also, the mixer can be combined with the filling machine for an even greater ease of use.

Kingmar moulding machineThe Kingmar moulding machine is definitely a very unique machine due to the fact that it is able to cre-ate any shape required. The fun-nel drain provides beautiful, well-stocked products. As a result, all of them have an equal size and weight. The transportation unit forwards them immediately, so that they just need to be packed up. The machine includes various shapes and it is also possible to fill the fresh cheese products in an individual way. Of

course, the structure of the fresh cheese is being preserved during the whole process.

Kingmar filling machineFor example, it is possible to fill in peppers or olives and stuff puff pas-try by using the foot or hand pedal of the Kingmar filling machine. Also, multiple people can be integrated in the work process. In case there are large amounts of fresh cheese or similar products to be processed, it is possible to combine the Kingmar filling machine with the moulding machine. By that way, you are even faster and more flexible.

Kingmar Experience CenterIf you would like to try Kingmar ma-chines – for example with your own product – you are cordially invited to visit the Kingmar Experience Center. There you have the chance to test them in detail and without time pressure. Of course, we sup-ply plenty of guidance, explanation and support. Be assured, this is the ideal way to determine whether Kingmar machines suit your prod-uct range.

K esko Food was the first in Europe to start using Plastiroll’s new and inno-

vative biodegradable, transparent packaging film. New packaging ma-terial helps Kesko Food further with the objective set in Kesko’s respon-sibility programme for mitigating climate change and promoting the sustainable use of natural resourc-es. In addition to the company’s own operations, the objectives of Kesko’s responsibility programme include reducing envi-ronmental impact across the whole supply chain all the way to the customer. This objective is well achieved in the case of the new bio-degradable packaging material.

Kesko Food started cooperation with Plastiroll Oy Ltd concerning the packaging of Pirkka vegetables some years ago. Packaging mate-rial has been and continues to be developed in close cooperation with Plastiroll and Uudenmaan Vi-hannes Oy, the vegetable packag-ing company. “For several years, Kesko Food has examined the possibility of using packaging material which would have the smallest possible envi-ronmental impact. The material introduced is certified to meet the EN13432 standard and fulfills the criteria for biodegradability and the product safety and quality require-ments for vegetable packaging,” says Heini Haverinen, Product Qual-ity Manager of Kesko Food.

Plastiroll’s biodegradable film is excellent for packingvegetablesPackaging material is made from

starch based renewable raw mate-rial, and since it does not contain any genetically modified organ-isms, it is GMO free. The packaging can be disposed of by composting. This biodegradable film reduces total waste of fresh products con-siderably by extending the shelf-life of foods. Thus also the amount of waste generated from packaging materials in retail store decreases.Plastiroll’s biodegradable material is excellent for packing vegetables. It is breathable and the inside moisture will no condense on the inner surface of the film, which means that vegetables keep fresh in the package. Compared with packaging material used before, there has been no waste caused by torn film. Additional benefit is that the package also serves the con-sumer as a bio waste bag.

Environmental benefits of packaging communicatedto store customersCompostable and 100% biode-gradable packaging material is a competitive asset for stores. Kesko Food has communicated the issue widely to customers via both tradi-tional and social media channels. Product labels on packages clearly indicate that the material is biode-gradable. In-store material, mar-keting and communications have been used to increase customer awareness of biodegradable pack-aging and its properties. Most consumer feedback has been good as consumers are increas-ingly aware of the environmental impacts of both companies’ and their own actions. When asked for feedback, most of the stores and

fruit and vegetables department managers have also been satis-fied and expressed a wish for more products in biodegradable packag-ing.

Potential for further use is explored So far, three products have been packed in biodegradable material: onion bunches, Chinese cabbage

and leek. Development work continues and Kesko Food is currently exploring possibilities of increasing the use of the material.

R uokakesko begann als Er-ster in Finnland und in ganz Europa die von Plastiroll pro-

duzierten neuartigen und innovativen biologisch abbaubauren, transparenten Verpackungsfolien zu nutzen. Mit der Einführung des neuen Verpackungs-materials verfolgt Ruokakesko das Ziel der Kesko-Gruppe, den Klimawandel einzudämmen und die Nutzung nach-haltiger Ressourcen zu fördern. Die Verringerung der Umweltbelas-tungen in der gesamten Lieferkette bis zum Kunden soll erreicht werden. Dieses Ziel wird mit dem neuen biolo-gisch abbaubaren Verpackungsmate-rial erreicht. Die Zusammenarbeit zwis-chen Plastiroll Oy und Ruokakeskos Pirkka-Gemüse begann vor ein paar Jahren. Verpackungsmaterialien wur-den entwickelt und werden in enger Zusammenarbeit mit Plastiroll und dem Gemüseverpacker Uudenmaan Vihan-nes Oy ständig weiter verbessert. - Wir haben bei Ruokakesko schon viele Jahre lang die Möglichkeiten un-tersucht, Verpackungsmaterial in Ge-brauch zu nehmen, welches die Umwelt möglichst wenig belastet. Das Material, das nun in Verwendung ist, entspricht dem EN13432-Standard und es erfüllt sowohl die festgelegten Kriterien der biologischen Abbaubarkeit als auch die Produktsicherheit und Qualitätsstand-ards für Gemüseverpackungen, sagt Ruokakeskos Produktqualitätsmanag-er Heini Haverinen.

Bioverpackungsfolie von Pla-stiroll - ideales Verpackung-smaterial für GemüseDas Verpackungsmaterial wird aus stärkehaltigem, nachwachsendem Rohstoff hergestellt, es enthält also keine genetisch veränderten Organis-men (GVO-frei). Die Verpackung kann durch Kompostieren entsorgt werden. Diese biologisch abbaubare Folie re-duziert deutlich die Gesamtabfall an frischen Produkten durch die Verläng-erung der Haltbarkeit von Lebensmit-teln. Damit kann die Mengen der Ab-fälle aus Verpackungsmaterialien im Einzelhandelsgeschäft deutlich reduzi-ert werden.Das biologisch abbaubare Verpack-ungsmaterial von Plastiroll ist hervor-ragend zum Verpacken von Gemüse geeignet. Das Material ist atmung-saktiv, d.h. im Inneren der Verpackun-gen findet keine Kondensation statt, wodurch das Gemüse frisch bleibt. Im Vergleich zu früher verwendeten Verpackungsmaterial entstehen bei dem biologisch abbaubaren Mate-rial keine Verluste durch Einreißen der Folie. Ein weiterer Vorteil ist, dass der Verbraucher die Möglichkeit hat, die Verpackung als Biomüllbeutel wieder-zuverwenden.

Umweltvorteile des Verpa-ckungsmaterials den Kunden vermittelnDas kompostierbare und 100-pro-

zentig abbaubare Verpackungsmate-rial ist ein Wettbewerbsvorteil für das Geschäft. Bei Ruokakesko wurde dies umfassend über traditionelle Kanäle wie auch über die Sozialen Medien kommuniziert. Auf der Produktverpack-ung ist ein sichtbarer Hinweis, dass die Verpackung biologisch abbaubar ist. Durch Verkaufsmaterial, Market-ingaktionen und Öffentlichkeitsarbeit wurde das Kundenbewusstsein für biologisch abbaubare Verpackungen und ihre Funktion erhöht. Der Großteil der Kundenrückmeldungen auf die Produkte war positiv, da die Ver-braucher sich bewusster wurden über die Konsequenzen des eigenen Kon-sums sowie die Rolle des Unterneh-mens in Bezug auf Umwelteinflüsse. Auch die meisten Geschäfte sowie Obst- und Gemüseabteilungen, die zu einer Rückmeldung über die Produkte befragt wurden, antworteten, dass sie zufrieden seien und hofften auf wei-tere biologische Verpackungsmateri-alien.

Weitere Anwendungsmöglichkei-ten werden untersuchtBiologisch abbaubares Material wird bisher zur Verpackungen dreier Produk-te eingesetzt: Zwiebelbündel, Chinakohl und Lauch. Die Weiterentwicklung des Verpackungsmaterials wird fortgesetzt und Ruokakesko untersucht das Poten-tial, die Verwendung des Materials zu erweitern.

A ltogether, AK Gida markets more than 20 different dairy products, from cheese and

butter to homogenized milk and pow-dered milk, all the way to yoghurt and pudding. The dairy producer, whose brands also include Petit Suisse, a cream cheese product made of pas-teurized cow’s milk enriched with a wisp of cream, is one of the leading manufacturers in the Turkish market. Now AK Gida intends to strengthen its production capacities in the cream cheese segment even further by turn-ing to the latest machine technology. OYSTAR Hassia’s THM 16/48 form, fill-ing and sealing machine with an asep-tic dosing system. “It was our goal to achieve the very best production for our top seller, Petit Sui-sse,” explains Ömer Murat Gümüşdağ, Production Director at AK Gida. “OYS-TAR Hassia has been supplying us with the highest quality of innovative ma-chinery for years now and that makes them the right partner to help us reach our goal. The food manufacturer had already purchased an aseptic machine for its pudding production in 2003. Two additional machines followed in 2007: a stick pack machine for choco-late sauce as well as an additional FFS machine for the production of cream cheese.

Maximum EfficiencyThe new THM 16/48 from OYSTAR Hassia is distinguished by its reli-ability and high rate of efficien-cy. The FFS machine produces 54,000 45-gram cups per hour at a nominal output of 30 strokes

per minute. “This output has allowed us to increase our production capac-ity several times over, even as we re-duced our downtime”, states Ömer Murat Gümüşdağ. AK Gida also enjoys improved flexibility; in addition to han-dling Petit Suisse, the THM 16/48 can switch over to the 35-gram cups used to make the Smartt brand chocolate pudding when necessary. Both the cream cheese and the pud-ding cups are manufactured in 6-pack units (30-up format). The 6-pack units are provided with perforated snap-lines to allow the cups to be separated eas-ily. The tool is designed for “low-waste” perforation with trimming and star-shaped punching. “This offers us more than maximum efficiency; it promotes the environmentally friendly manufac-ture of our products”, summarizes AK Gida’s Ömer Murat Gümüşdağ. Steam DisinfectionTo ensure the quality of the product, the THM 16/48 comes in the “Hygienic Active” version for the active disinfec-tion of the bottom web and lid mate-rial. In other words, steam is used to disinfect the wrapping materials, which are then passed on in a tunnel with sterile air overpressure until the cups are sealed to prevent re-infection. In addition, a membrane valve

dosing system (CIP/SIP-capable) in aseptic design featuring 30 filling noz-zles is integrated and a gas flushing of the cup headspace takes place. “This ensures the highest hygienic demands are met and guarantees an optimal product protection with the best-pos-sible quality assurance”, emphasizes Ömer Murat Gümüşdağ of AK Gida.The FFS machine is operated using the TEOs HMI panel developed by the OYSTAR Group. Machinery operation is intuitive, using a modern multi-touch system similar to that of a smartphone. Operators further have the support of a help system integrated into the HMI software: Each time a parameter is en-tered, the system offers tips on choos-ing the right settings, and if an error message appears, it displays photos, graphics and tips from the operating manual and the circuit diagrams. “I believe we’ve really made the best possible choice here,” Ömer Murat Gümüşdağ from AK Gida sums up. “We have the ideal setup for our cream cheese production. Once again, further investment in an OYSTAR machine has paid off!“

AK GidA Relies on oYSTAR HASSiAThe dairy producer AK Gida, a subsidiary of Turkey’s larg-est food group, Ülker, is increasing its cream cheese produc-tion capacities. The company has purchased yet another THM 16/48 form, filling and sealing (FFs) machine manufactured by OYsTAR Hassia.

F or over 50 years, Zanotti Spa has been designing and manufacturing equip-

ment for the refrigeration, storage and transportation of fresh and fro-zen food. Founded in 1962 as a family-run business with the conception of the new and revolutionary “uniblock” system, a complete cooling system that is autonomous and ready to be used for small needs, the man-agement changes made in 2002 led the Zanotti company towards international grounds and turned it into a managing structure that was better prepared to face competitors worldwide. Over time, Zanotti has improved its series, which are now the most complete offers available on the market. Zanotti can meet the food cooling needs of the entire cold chain, thus, of the preservation of raw materi-als, of their processing, storage and distribution to supermarkets, spe-cific shops or restaurants. The units designed for refrigerated transpor-

tation complete the series and en-sure foods are handled safely.

The products developed by Zanotti cover the needs of small to medi-um-sized cooling necessities, as well as the needs of logistic and storage centers: monoblocks, multi-compressor stations, condensing units and cooling systems for food, but also for the aging of cold meats and cheeses, to refine wines or to dry grains in silos. The diesel unit completes the cooling chain with its split battery system or others, which were specifically designed for the short, medium to long distance transportation of food.

The industrial division designs and implements equipment for ice tracks, like the new ones of Cour-mayeur and the Arena of Minsk, which is the biggest one in Europe. Recently, the company acquired a new contract to make a track, with Olympic features, in the new ice sta-dium of Kazakistan. The works will

soon begin. The installation will be implemented with the latest free-cooling technologies that use the cold from outdoors at certain times of the year.

Recently, Zanotti was chosen by a major airline of the United Arab Emirates to make a system for their new catering center for a value of 21 millions of dollars; in the inter-national airport to increase the production of 260,000 meals a day that will be distributed on board of the new Boing fleet. It’s one of the biggest and most modern struc-tures of this kind worldwide and, therefore, it requires highly reliable systems, top notch final touches and strict hygienic conditions with regards to the equipment.

As a result of this important con-tract, Zanotti recently won the tender for the supply of a similar installation; which should be imple-mented in the new airport of Mus-cat, in the Sultanates of Oman.

Other successes ensure the reli-ability of the Zanotti installations, implemented worldwide, such as the one of the Kabardino-Balkaria Republic to design and provide an installation to preserve apples in a controlled atmosphere for long peri-ods, up to 7 months. Here, Zanotti has crushed the Ger-man competitors by presenting pro-jects with advanced technologies that use intermediate non-toxic flu-ids from a nutritional viewpoint.

Nationally speaking, Zanotti has completed works with a leading Italian cheese manufacturer by implementing an aging system of the highest level thanks to the lat-est technologies; maximum energy savings with low operating costs, maximum reliability to reduce main-tenance and to ensure the continu-ity of operations through centralized

management and with a supervi-sion system.

Today, Zanotti Spa is an Internation-al Group with production plants in Spain, England, Brazil, China and it counts on a strong network of certi-fied suppliers who provide expertise and assistance worldwide.

The quality of the Zanotti products is the primary concern of the pro-duction unit. Actually, the products have been ISO 9001 certified in Italy, they have received the EC marking in Europe, the Gost in Russia and the UL in the US for several years now. These markings and certifications are based on the local standards of quality.

The attention devoted to customers and the flexibility of the products are

essential characteristics for Zanotti: investing in research and develop-ment to better meet customer de-mand by providing more convenient solutions in terms of energy savings and reliability of use is a priority. The know-how Zanotti acquired over 50 years also concerns the environ-mental aspects involved since the products are developed to provide low energy consumptions and re-duced noise levels; as to meet the current technological trends that aim to contain greenhouse gas emissions.This is how the BESTCOP® technol-ogy was created. It is applied on the motorized condensing units that are manufactured by Zanotti to improve the efficiency and energy consump-tion levels of the cooling equipment. This basically can be translated into energy savings (from 15 to 20% depending on the different environ-mental conditions).

The technological research is at the base of the investments Zanotti al-locates every year to better meet the needs of the customers’ require-ments by taking their work needs and the greenhouse gas emission standards into consideration.Innovation, energy savings, quality and competence are the key words that best describe the works imple-mented by Zanotti up to today and they also represent a promise for the future.

D rying is the oldest system to preserve food. Open air drying using sun and

wind has been practiced since an-cient times. Industrial equipments can ensure more consistent results speeding the process, improving quality and reducing costs.In addition to this dryers are used for the treatment of additives, es-sences, dyes, and in general all industrial products utilized in food processing.Given the breadth of the field of application, the type of machines is very variable and ranges from the little tunnel used by the farmer for local production of high quality dried food up to the big belt con-veyor dryer or fluidized bed for the large scale food industry.According to the principle of opera-tion and to products treated we can distinguish the following “families” of dryers.

Tunnel dryers model LIBECCIO and GHIBLI The process performed in the tun-nel dryer is the closest system to the natural sun drying.Material to be dried is placed on trays and closed into an insulated “room” with controlled air flow and temperature. Trays can be fixed or, usually, resting on wheeled carts. The drying time ranges from 6 to 48 hours according to the product. Size of the machine is defined by the useful drying surface and var-ies from 10 to 860 m2. Capacity depends on the product that can be loaded at a rate of 5-20 Kg per square meter.Substances to eliminate pests and melds can be added to the air flow. This kind of dryers is used for fruit and vegetables. Little and sophisti-cated models are

dedicated to sensitive and expensive materials like medicinal herbs and saf-fron.

Belt conveyor dryers model ETLThey are single or multiple belts dryers having from 5 up to 500 sq\m. useful surface, fitted with high ef-ficiency ventilation system and intermediate reheat-ing of the drying air if re-quired. The dryer ETL is continuous, fully automatic equipment suitable for medium and large productions. It consists of one or more perforat-ed strips on witch the product, load-ed with continuity, moves at a con-stant speed. The drying is produced by a stream of air passing through tape and product. Part of the circu-lating air is extracted by a fan and replaced by an equally amount of hot air. The entire system is divided into standard “zones” that differ in the direction of the air flow. Tem-perature, air flow and relative mois-ture of air are controlled by the au-tomatic control system. Such kind of dryers is used for sliced fruit or vegetables like apples, carrots, on-ions, spinach, or herbs and flower like chamomile

Fluidized bed dryers model TS, TS PULSE, and TSA.The dryer consist of a cylindrical body (the diameter range from 0,4 to 5 meters and even more) that is divided in two parts by a special tray provided with patented shaped blades. They produce a lot of fast air’s blades such to hold in suspen-sion the product alternated to as many zones of relative calm. The air flow accelerated by the drying tray blades surround and lifts the drying

material creating the so called “flu-idized bed” A slow blender moves the whole mass in such a way that is homogeneously invested by the air. Filter bags are placed over the drying chamber to avoid dust pol-lution. The working principle is simple and is based on the exposi-tion of the product to a direct hot air stream. The air in contact with the product gives it part of its inter-nal energy. This causes the water evaporation and, at the same time, the reduction of air temperature. Material can be loaded batch wise (TS type) or continuously, and dis-charged batch wise (TS, TS PULSE) or continuously. This system guar-antees the higher performances and efficiency, and can be utilized for light particles, dust or paste.

Fast drying type Flash and Tur-boflashSome materials are sensible to the temperature. Such kind of materi-als can be dried with hot air but re-ducing the time of treatment to few minutes or seconds. In the “flash” technique the air flow carries and dries the product in a single and quick passage. In particular the turboflash realizes a swirl of hot air that lift and dry the product (usually dust or little crystals, like flour or

sugar, but in some circumstances also liquids).Constructively the TSF looks similar to TS family using the same patent-ed drying tray to separate the inlet air chamber to the drying chamber. Difference is the speed of the pro-cess and the extraction system of exhaust air that allow adjusting the residence time of dust inside the dryer.

APPLICATION EXAMPLE: TS PULSE DRYER FOR GREATED CHEESEAs, and more than other foods, the cheese is an alive product. The dry-ing’s plant doesn’t have only to re-duce moisture but also to preserve the aspect, the colour and the taste of the product. The time of treat-ment has to be brief, to avoid the “cooking” of the material, and this eliminates in prior all the systems to indirect exchange. The air that produce the drying has however to be attentively dosed. A too elevated quantity of air, in fact, makes the product “rough” and undesirable to the palate. For this reason the flash technique cannot be applied.The best choice is so the TS dryer that is loaded directly from the grat-ers. The drying time is 30-40 min-

utes, and the whole cycle (compris-ing cooling and discharge) takes 1 hour. Capacity, according to the dif-ferent models, ranges from 20 kg to one ton of dried material per hour.

APPLICATION EXAMPLE: TSA DRYER FOR BREADCRUMBSDomestic breadcrumbs are ob-tained by slow natural drying of waste bread. But for industrial ap-plication fresh bread is realized exactly for this purpose and must be quickly dried. The process must be continuous. Both Turboflash and TSA dryer are applicable but TSA allow treating bigger particles and for this reason is preferred. The ca-pacity of the most common plants ranges from 400 to 800 Kg/h of fresh material

APPLICATION EXAMPLE: TSF DRYER FOR FLOURThe natural moisture contents of flour are around 16%, but it has to reduce at 13 % of moisture, or less.

APPLICATION EXAMPLE: ETL 40/2001 FOR CARROTS PEL-LETSAfter the extraction of juice, car-rots are a paste still containing sugar fibres and vitamins that can be useful as flour for industrial ap-plication. The product is sticky and delicate and requires a long drying time at low temperature. The ETL dryer allow to reduce the moisture contents from about 85% to less than 5% without damage or colour changes.

I n this issue we present some of the innovations by Pigo, world-wide leader in designing

and manufacturing equipment and machines for fruit and vegetable pro-duction. There are three main news items: Pigo’s expansion in the Ameri-can market; the development of new machines; and the improvement of cutting-edge machines, the Pitting Machine PG 103, and Easy Freeze. We are also publishing the com-pany’s updated trade show calendar.

EXPANSION IN THE AMERICANMARKETPigo plans to further expand in the American market. The objective for 2014 will be two-fold: to confirm its solid presence in North America

and Canada, culminating with regi-stration in the NWFPA (North West Food Processors Association) and the FPSA (Food Processing Suppliers Association); and to win over the rest of the United States. Pigo was pre-sent in the major trade shows in the U.S., particularly the Chicago Process Expo from November 3-6; in Michi-gan for the Great Lakes Fruit Expo, December 10-12; and finally, it will be present in Portland for the 2014 Expo, January 12-14.

THE NEW MACHINES; INNOVA-TION IN CUSTOMER SERVICEPigo has developed new machines such as: EASY Dry SPYRO, the best solution for drying various products.

With similar construction, Easy Dry SPYRO offers the same advantages as Easy Freeze SPYRO in terms of hygie-ne, ease of use, and energy efficiency. WASHING MACHINE PG 018, is the new washer for fruits and vegeta-bles with an innovative system of nozzles, valves, and filters. MACHINE fOR CAulIflOWERS PG 415, with new circular movement, sorts pieces of cauliflowers and automatically eliminated all waste through special blades designed by PIGO.

chines: A centralized lubricating sy-stem was installed on the PITTING MACHINE PG 103, which allows for fast, perfect lubrication. A new, fast and effective automa-tic-wash system was installed on the EASY Freeze, allowing for a quick,thorough wash.The innovative centralized lubrica-ting system was also installed here.

NEW TRADE SHOWS SCHEDULEDPigo was present in the major trade shows in the U.S., particularly the Chicago Process Expo from Novem-ber 3-6; in Michigan for the Great Lakes Fruit Expo, December 10-12; and in Portland for the 2014 Expo, January 12- 14.This is the opinion they have in Pigo after the last exhibitions: “After a great success and a very profita-ble experience at Fruit Logistica in Berlin, and after our first time at the CFIA Rennes, we continue with an

important presence as a member of the Sacramento CFPL Process Expo and as a member of the AFFI-AFFI San Diego. These memberships confirm our new success in the U.S. market, and then we continued with our presence at Aahar Internatio-nal Fair in Delhi (10-14 March) and SEAFOOD PROCESSING BRUSSELS (2014).The well-known Fruitlogistica was challenging but profitable for us, like

never before. The success and par-ticipation we had this year is much higher than the one we have ever had in all the years that we atten-ded. It’s a great satisfaction and we had many impressions.Then we exhibited in Rennes for the first time and it was a pleasure to be present for the first time in this area. It was a overwhelmingly positi-ve experience that we hope to repe-at in the next years.”

T he experience and compe-tence gained in this field to make Sordi a leader,

enables us to supply fruit juice and drinks processing lines giving a high quality product with minimal production costs. The structure of these plants com-plete with their central automation system optimizes the use of the raw materials and reduces the operator involvement.Sordi can provide a wide range of plants varying from small labora-tory or pilot plants up to the very big plants capable of producing on an industrial scale utilizing two differ-ent systems of blending: continu-ous or batch:› continuous and automatic, with an in-line refractometric control and the automatic recipes manage-ment system.› Discontinuous/batch where the components are mixed in tanks. Dosing with relevant °Brix control can be automatic.

The recombining lines for fruit juic-es and different drinks provides for:› Preparation /reception of sugar syrup › Water mixing with fruit concen-trates › Flavours or other ingredients.The line is complete with thermal processing systems (plates or tubu-lar) for hot/cold filling.All the lines are sanitized under CIP cleaning.

T he standards for quality for tropical fruits are becoming more and more stringent.

It is therefore mandatory that the equipment used for their processing be continuously updated in order to maximize the yield and quality of the juice / puree extracted. This is in fact the basis to keep quality in the subsequent operations of heat treatment, evaporation (when it oc-curs) and packaging.One of the way to meet the target of a good extraction is the use of dedicated machines for the various “families” of fruits having similar characteristics.On the contrary of the “Universal machines” the dedicated juice / pu-ree extraction machines are taylor made taking into account the pecu-liarities of the fruits: the good juice extraction from a passion fruit, for instance, is something of complete-ly different from the extraction of juice / pulp from a pineapple. The use of dedicated machines avoids

the compromises that, otherwise, has to be accepted.The use of dedicated machines avoids to a large extend the con-tamination caused by the peel to the juice / puree. This contamina-tion can consists in color (for in-stance the purple variety of passion fruit, the chlorophyll of the pineap-ple peel etc) as well as in the bitter / not palatable components as well as the pesticides and other chemi-cals.

Bertuzzi Food Processing, a lead-ing Italian Company operates since 1936 in the design and construction of machinery and plants for the pro-cessing of fruits and vegetables and has gained a wide experience in the field of tropical fruits processing for which has developed a number of specific, dedicated machines and technologies for the juicing of pine-apple, passion fruit, acerola, dragon fruit, pomelo, banana, mango, gua-va, litchee, ranbutan, coconut etc.

Z ur kommenden Anuga FoodTec vom 24. bis 27. März 2015 in Köln zeigt

die internationale Zuliefermesse in-novative Lösungen für die Lebens-mittel- und Getränkeindustrie – von den ersten Verarbeitungsschritten bis hin zu komplexen technologis-chen Abläufen. Am Beispiel Rein-raumtechnik wird dies deutlich. Zu den angemeldeten Anbietern auf diesem Gebiet gehören Anton Hurtz GmbH & Co. KG, B-Hygienic - PolySto bvba, BLU Ewelina Kasprzyk, Dastex Reinraumzubehör GmbH & Co. KG, Ecolab Europe GmbH, Endress + Hauser Messtechnik GmbH + Co.

Sie stellen im Angebotssegment „Food Safety / Hygienetechnik“ der Anuga FoodTec aus. Produktspezifische Reinraumkonzepte sind hier das be-herrschende Thema. Denn der Trend geht weg vom großen Reinraum zu kleinen, lokalen Lösungen.Beim Stichwort “Reinraum” denken die meisten an die großen Hallen der Mikrochip-Fabriken. Doch die Produk-tion unter Reinraumbedingungen,

lange Zeit Domäne der Halbleiter-branche, hält vermehrt Einzug in die Lebensmittelindustrie. Joghurt, Brot, Wurst, Käse, Salate und Getränke – mehr und mehr Produkte werden in keimarmer Umgebung abgefüllt und verpackt.Lebensmittel werben damit, welche Zusätze sie nicht enthalten. Sogen-annte “Clean Label”-Produkte liegen im Trend. Allen voran sind es die ungeliebten Konservierungsstoffe, die aus den Rezepturen gestrichen werden. „Weniger Chemie, mehr Physik“, bringt Martin Schüring vom Bremerhavener Institut für Lebens-mitteltechnologie und Bioverfahren-stechnik (BILB) diese Philosophie auf den Punkt. Der Leiter im Bereich F&E-

anuga FP 3-14.indd 3 02/09/14 14:26

Innovation weiß aber um die Kehr-seite Medaille: „Mit dem Verzicht auf Konservierungsstoffe, müssen die Lebensmittelhersteller mikrobiologis-che Gefahren besser vom Produkt fernhalten, um die gewünschte Halt-barkeit zu erzielen.“

Weniger Keime in der LuftEin sauberes, das heißt keimarmes, Umfeld ist Voraussetzung, um auf Konservierungsmittel verzichten zu können. Jeder Keim zählt! Allen voran bei gekühlten Frischeproduk-ten, wie Salaten, Pasta oder Sand-wiches. Schüring: „Reinräume kön-nen Bakterien und Schimmelpilze, die Ursachen für einen frühzeitigen Verderb, sicher aussperren.“ Und das im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes, denn mehrstufige Schwebstofffilter halten selbst kleinste Partikel zurück. Das stetige Einblasen der entkeimten Luft erzeugt einen Überdruck, der die unreine Luft aus dem Produktions-bereich entfernt. Maßgeblich ist die Norm ISO 14644-1. Sie definiert die Reinraumklassen 1 bis 9 und legt fest, wie viele Partikel welcher Größe in einem Kubikmeter Luft vorhanden sein dürfen – je kleiner die Rein-raumklasse, desto größer der Rein-heitsgrad.Während in einer Chipfabrik sehr hohe Reinheitsgrade gefordert werden, sind für die Herstellung von Lebensmitteln Reinräume der ISO-Klassen 5 bis 8 üblich. Nicht immer ist es erforderlich komplette Produk-tionshallen als Reinräume auszug-estalten, die kostenintensiv zu Buche schlagen. Bereits die ISO-Klasse 5 entspricht einer Belastung von weni-ger als einem Keim pro Kubikmeter Luft, was praktisch als keimfrei an-zusehen ist. Schüring: „Das leisten bereits kleinere Reinraumzonen und Raum-in-Raum-Konzepte.“ Durch ge-schickte Unterteilung werden Zonen verschiedener Reinheitsgrade im Produktionsbereich eingerichtet. Höchste Reinheit herrscht nur dort, wo es wirklich darauf ankommt. Wie bei der Schnittbrotherstellung: Zum

Einsatz kommen hier Laminar-Flow-Tunnel. In den dreiseitig umschloss-enen Boxen sorgt ein horizontaler oder vertikaler Reinstluftstrom für den nötigen Überdruck. Nachdem das Backgut den Ofen verlassen hat wird es mittels Sterilluft abgekühlt und noch im Tunnel geschnitten. Erst nach dem Verpacken verlassen die Waren den lokalen Reinraum.

Hygiene-Minis für die AbfüllungJeder Kubikzentimeter Reinraum ist teuer. Ziel der Anlagenbauer ist es daher, diesen so klein wie möglich auszulegen. Maschinen, die “unrein” sein dürfen, befinden sich außerhalb dieser Sterilzone. Vor allem in der Getränkeindustrie wurde der Reinraum mit den Jahren auf das absolute Minimum reduzi-ert. Im Fokus der aktuellen Entwick-lungen stehen Restricted Access Barriers (RABS) und Isolatoren. Die kompakten “Hygiene-Minis” sind nicht nur im Bau günstiger, sondern auch im Betrieb. Der Bere-ich eines Isolators ist so streng ab-gegrenzt, dass Mitarbeiter normale Hygienekleidung tragen können. In den modernen kaltaseptischen Abfüllanlagen verläuft lediglich der Flaschenweg noch innerhalb des Isolators, der als dichte Kam-mer von der Umgebung abgetrennt ist. Bei dem Verfahren fließen

Fruchtsäfte ohne Erhitzen direkt in die Flaschen. Im Gegensatz dazu sind RABS nicht hermetisch abge-schlossen: Eine Luftschranke, die durch Überdruck im Inneren des Gehäuses erzeugt wird, schützt das Herz der Maschine – den ster-ilen Bereich. Es ist während der Produktion von außen nur über Glove-Boxes (Handschuh-Kisten) zugänglich, die an den kritischen Stellen entlang der Abfüllmaschine angebracht sind. Alle anderen Be-reiche sind durch Außentüren ohne Schleuse zu erreichen.

Organischer Anbau in “Reinkultur”Der japanische Technologiekonz-ern Fujitsu geht im Rahmen seines Programms “Kirei Yasai” (saubere Gemüse) noch ein Schritt weiter. In einem ehemaligen Halbleiterwerk werden auf 2.000 Quadratmeter Salate unter Reinraumbedingungen angebaut. Dank perfekter Umwelt-kontrolle soll der geerntete Salat bei 10 Grad Celsius zwei Wochen lang frisch bleiben und geringere Mengen an Nitrat aufweisen. Orga-nischer Anbau in Reinkultur – ein neuer Aspekt der Reinraumtech-nologie.

W hether for pizza, casse-roles, salad or a snack, cheese gives many

dishes a special appeal. But tradi-tional cheese is not always the best choice from the standpoint of eco-nomics and production complexity. Hydrosol’s new stabilizing systems make it possible to produce ana-logues of pizza and feta cheese. Their ingredient combinations sim-plify production and reduce costs.

Recombined pizza cheese:Shorter production process This recombined pizza cheese of-fers excellent melting properties, simple use and significantly faster production. With the new Stabisol and Stabiprot functional systems, manufacturers can make an ana-logue cheese for pizza toppings or gratins that melts evenly and pulls into long strings, just like mozza-rella. What’s special about it is that it’s much faster to make. The rea-son is the special recipe, combin-ing the stabilizing systems Stabisol PCFL and Stabiprot LK Speed. Sta-bisol PCFL is a mixture of a specially

modified starch, emulsifying salts and proteins. It is first dispersed in water, then mixed with Stabiprot and briefly sheared. After adding vegetable fat and seasonings, the mass is heated to 85°C at low speed before being filled into moulds and cooled. After three to four days in cool storage, the resulting analogue pizza cheese can be shaved or sliced. This short-er production process lets manu-facturers save time and money. The only thing required for production is a double-walled process cooker and a filling line.

The alternative to feta: A cre-amy consistency without ho-mogenizingSimplified production, lower costs and a high quality final product are the advantages offered by the new

stabilizing system Stabisol FET for recombined white cheese. What’s special about this feta alternative is the way it results in a creamy consistency without homogeniza-tion. Manufacturers need only mix a functional milk protein, vegeta-ble fat and water with the system, and heat the mixture in a double-walled process cooker. Instead of conventional bacteria cultures, this process uses GDL acidifier. Another plus point is that various consisten-cies can be obtained by modifying the amount of Stabisol FET in the mixture. The possibilities range from a soft, creamy texture to a firmer product that cuts cleanly and has a creamy mouth feel. Thus, with the same ingredients manufactur-ers can create different products and make optimum use of market potential.

A new addition to the range of Britain’s oldest pasta sauces, Ragú, has be-

come the first UK product to go on-shelf in RPC Superfos’s award-winning SuperLock® barrier pack.

The 400ml pack, supplied to manu-facturer Symingtons by RPC Con-tainers Blackburn, has been se-lected in preference to glass due to its ambient shelf life of up to 24 months combined with glass-like transparency and the added in-home safety of a non-shatter con-tainer.

SuperLock® containers combine an oxygen barrier on all surfaces with a membrane seal to ensure an almost non-existent oxygen trans-mission rate.

The barrier is created through the use of a leading-edge in-mould la-belling (IML) technique. Labels are manufactured using a special co-extruded barrier foil and are applied

during the injection moulding of the containers. After filling, the contain-ers are sealed with a PP/EVOH/PP membrane seal.

Together the two processes ensure virtually zero oxygen transmission to provide an ambient shelf life of up to 24 months. They are suitable for hot filling and autoclaving during processing. An additional filling line benefit is that the process is far qui-eter than other materials.

The pre-printed labels offer out-standing graphic quality and the ability to produce highly colourful and intricate designs. Further-more, the availability of the whole container for this quality decoration allows it to be maximised to its full potential for excellent shelf stand-out.

Equally important, the clarity and transparency of the polypropylene containers means that clear sec-tions can be incorporated into the

labels so that the products them-selves can also be visible on shelf.

Further consumer benefits include easy re-closability thanks to the twist-off/screw-on lid and Super-Lock® is microwave, dishwasher and freezer safe.

Ragú is Britain’s original pasta sauce and has been available since 1988. Its heritage dates back to the Cantisano Family in Rochester, New York in 1937 where Giovanni and Assunta Cantisano made Ragú sauce from the basement of their home, selling it door-to-door and through local shops. The legacy continues today with convenient sauces allowing you to create tasty meals for family and friends.The extension to the range meets consumer demand for sophisti-cated cooking options, and was available as a Tesco exclusive from 28 April, then in other retailers a month later.

P ietribiasi Michelangelo was established between the end 1960 and the be-

ginning of the next decade. From the beginning the family-run com-pany specialized in the construction of equipment for the dairy industry and developed later into the field of soft drinks, juices and beverages in general. Today the Pietribiasi name is among the more well-known in the dairy and beverages sector and the company is internationally acknowledged, particularly in the re-alisation of “turn-key” projects, and in the specific processing sectors, such as production of cheeses, pasteurisa-tion and packaging ones. Looking more closely at the com-pany’s product ranges, the Pietribiasi division covers the research, project design and supply of complete sy-stems for the process of milk (HTST – HHTST – ESL – UHT), cream – fer-mented products from milk process (yoghurts in the various known ver-sions, sour cream, Smetana, kefir, leben, etc.), fresh soft cheeses, as well semi and hard cheeses, “pasta filata-pizza cheese” (such as mozza-rella, kashkaval, etc.) and other pro-ducts processed from cow – sheep and goat milks. In this field the company has a wide experience and can cover all equipment needs from small to big-ger plants for the production of: pa-steurized drinking milk, yoghurt, dif-ferent kinds of cheese, butter, etc. Pietribiasi designs and produces pla-te and tubular heat exchanger for pa-steurization and thermal treatment (cooling and/or heating) of different liquid foods (milk, cream, ice-cream mix, fruit juice, eggs mixture, beer, wine and many others).

In the beverage field, the range inclu-des pre-mix units, sugar dissolving systems, filters, mixing and storage tanks as well as of course the com-plete thermal treatment up to the filling. These kinds of plants are “tai-lor-made” and designed according to customer’s specific demands. The company is also renowned and appreciated for following products: Batch pasteurizers; discontinuous cream pasteurizers; butter churns (available in a wide range of models from 20 L to 3000 L total capacity); semi-automatic butter forming ma-chines. Its fifty-year experience in the food-stuff field, its long lasting coope-ration with many European organisa-tions and companies, the specialised knowledge in these processing fields, equipment and technologies, skilled

level of staff operating in Pietribiasi, a flexible and friendly management and lead of company by ownership, are the powerful basis of the success of Michelangelo Pietribiasi com-pany.

T his year Technoblock is cele-brating 20 years of activity in the manufacturing of refrig-

eration units for applications in the field of controlled temperature.Starting with a small staff, the com-pany can now count on a sales net-work located throughout the world. The Technoblock brand is known eve-rywhere and stands for the variety and flexibility of its products. It offers many solutions that are already avail-able in the catalog as well as solu-tions which are tailored to fully meet-ing customer’s requirements.Refrigeration is a process that oc-curs through the reduction of fluid and solid temperatures in general. Through this process it is possible to preserve goods temporarily which would otherwise be perishable in the short term. Refrigeration is vital in the food industry, and should only be done by experts in the field, since the foods, owing to their diversity, require specific treatment temperature and humidity according to their nature.Market demands require refrigera-tion systems that are both efficient and reliable. This has lead Techno-block to produce a wide range of high quality refrigerating products that help installers and technicians working in the field to offer their cus-tomers the most correct solution as Cold Solutions. The various options for plants are defined as customized since they meet the customer’s ex-pectations by giving extra benefits in terms of yields and energy savings.Tecnoblock’s sales network is made

up of professionals. It can boast of a great deal of experience in the refrig-eration industry and provides consul-tancies for projects dedicated to the different conservation needs of the different countries of the world.Every request is specifically studied by Technoblock’s R&D department in order to propose optimal solutions for the various applications and es-pecially a speedy and efficient after-sales service.Technoblock products are assembled with high quality components by ex-perienced workers. Particular atten-tion is paid to the development of new techniques, as well as to the use of new materials, in accordance with European legislation.The installation and maintenance that usually entail important costs may be performed in a very simple and fast way. The products are de-signed with a “view” to saving energy and reducing consumption following an environment-friendly philosophy.“We have arrived at celebrating an important birthday”, says Claudio Lo-vato, Technoblock’s Commercial Di-rector. “20 years mark a significant milestone for our company which has, in recent years, witnessed a rad-ical change in the management as a result of the economic and financial crisis that hit the world economy. With the new management, the com-pany has achieved a more structured and industrial organization, with well-defined objectives and has made itself more competitive in the mar-ketplace. “The refrigeration market”,

continued Lovato, “has seen many companies in trouble as a result of market restrictions. Access to credit has become increasingly more diffi-cult and together with other factors has turned a consumer crisis into a financial crisis. Small-and-medium sized enterprises such as Techno-block were the first ones to be ef-fected. Technoblock was lucky in that it offered top-of-the-range products, which are positioned in price and quality in a market segment quite appealing for some customers.”A relaunch of the company recently took place mainly involving private capital investors who believed in the company and in its potential.“What is important”, Lovato affirms, “is that it has arrived to this point with a high technical potential, to have a company that with operational cost optimization has been able to invest in technology that allows the compa-ny to go forward”.These 20 years have gained the com-pany a place in the world of manufac-turers of industrial refrigerators.The strengthened and improved com-pany has invested significantly in a relaunch of its products, strategically reviewing the range of products in order to better meet the demands of the market.The optimization and the review of the product range’s design are breathing new vitality into the brand that shall shortly, as the next leap in quality, undergo a makeover in order to better reflect the company’s re-launch.

If they are to position themselves successfully, fortified foods and beverages have to be de-signed very specifically for the differ-ent age groups among the consumers and their particular circumstances. Foods with an additional health ben-

efit are becoming more and more popular. In particular it is individual product concepts emphasizing spe-cific health aspects that offer added value. Jan Heuer, head of this busi-ness unit at SternVitamin: “The mar-ket demands much greater differ-entiation now than it did in the past. Gone are the days when a single mul-tivitamin tablet satisfied all consum-ers. We now have to offer functional foods with a specific health benefit

to meet individual consumer needs. Examples include yoghurt with beauty vitamins for the skin and power drinks with selected minerals to boost men-tal performance.” You might say these targeted concepts create a “win-win situation” for both sides: the consum-ers get products tailor-made to their individual needs, while diversification brings the manufacturers additional sales potential. Besides the classic vitamins, min-

erals and trace elements, plant ex-tracts are now playing an increasingly important role. Today’s consumers are much better informed about nu-trients and plant extracts – not least because of the digital media. A knowl-edge of indications, positive effects and health benefits of the substanc-es is no longer confined to experts. To enable manufacturers to exploit the positive image of the active sub-stances, SternVitamin has for some years been developing premixes for specific target groups that contain health-promoting ingredients as well as the usual micronutrients. “Vita-mins and minerals will always be of central importance, but in conjunc-tion with other substances like amino acids, plant extracts and other func-tional ingredients”, Dr. Sabine Hilde-brandt, Head of Research & Develop-ment at SternVitamin, explains. “For example, a near-water drink to boost performance can contain taurine or glucuronolactone as a unique selling proposition, but the product only of-fers maximum benefit in combination with vital substances like calcium or vitamin C.” The much-discussed health claims can be used as an effective market-ing tool. They make it possible to advertise health-supporting effects directly on the pack, in brochures or on a home page. “The permissible health claims for vitamins, miner-als and trace elements cover a wide range of applications – from main-taining normal bones through mental and physical performance to support for the cardiovascular system”, Dr. Hildebrandt says. “If you take a close look at the list you will find something suitable for nearly every region and function of the body. That gives rise to enormous marketing potential – es-pecially if you supplement the micro-nutrients with health-supporting plant extracts and the like.” Current examples from SternVita-min’s product range are micronutrient premixes for lifestyle drinks. Besides selected vitamins, the “Mind-Calm-

ing” premix contains plant extracts from elder and balm which have been shown in various scientific studies to help relieve stress and promote mental and emotional wellbeing. In conjunction with the B vitamins and vitamin C, the premix forms the ba-sis for lifestyle drinks with a relaxing effect. With a balanced combination of vitamins, minerals and green tea extracts, the “Brainpower” premix aids concentration and memory. For that reason it appeals particularly to professional people who have to maintain a high level of concentration in their daily work – whether at their desk or in endless meetings. “Against the background of demo-graphic change, so-called “50 plus” concepts are an important trend”, Dr. Hildebrandt comments. “Possibili-ties might include a soy shake forti-fied with vital substances specially for women in the second half of life, a “bone-protecting loaf” with vitamin K2, calcium and magnesium, or a power cocktail with Q10 and selenium for strengthening the body’s defenc-es. There is also a well-established nursing drink with iron and zinc that is offered especially for young moth-ers.” According to the expert, products lending themselves to fortification

include both staple foods like bread and edible fats, cereals which have a positive health image in any case, and also soft drinks and dairy prod-ucts. Sweets, biscuits and dairy prod-ucts are a good possibility for children in particular. But a crucial factor in all communication with consumers is that the vital substances must of-fer a demonstrable health benefit. “Consumers want reliable studies providing clear evidence of efficacy. In this field there are now a number of reputable studies that go far beyond the health claims”, Dr. Hildebrandt explains. Besides concepts for specific target groups, the market for ingredients and food supplements shows a further trend, Jan Heuer reports: “We are ob-serving much stricter requirements in respect of hygiene and product safety. In fact the safety of foods is now one of the most important quality attrib-utes in marketing. So more and more food manufacturers are demanding extremely high quality standards for the raw materials and processing methods. Only companies that meet these requirements and constantly adjust their production methods will be able to withstand the increasing pressure of competition.”

T hermo Fisher Scientific Inc., the world leader in serving science, today announced

several upgrades for its popular Thermo Scientific Xpert C400 X-ray system for detecting metals and other foreign objects in food. The upgrades include an X-ray source with twice the power of the original model, compact sanitary drum mo-tors and shorter line configurations.

The X-ray power boost makes the system well suited for thicker, den-ser product and/or higher speed production. The new capability further enhan-ces the unit’s leading inspection sensitivity to help food processors meet stringent foreign object detec-tion goals. The system targets a broad range of food applications including challen-ging wet, semi-frozen products, as well as metalized packaging struc-tures that do not lend themselves to metal detection.

The Thermo Scientific Xpert™ C400 also features a new compact sanita-ry drum motor to drive its conveyor. The drum is designed to improve safety and performance, minimi-ze maintenance requirements and simplify sanitation by enclosing all moving parts. Because the drum motor is part of the conveyor fra-mework, the unit takes up less floor space.

“Food processors demand a high level of performance from their

product inspection equipment. Also high on the list of deliverables is equipment that can perform within a smaller fo-otprint to maximize use of valuable floor space. The new Xpert C400 upgrades reflect Ther-mo Fisher’s continual investment in product inspection enhance-ments designed to meet customer needs,” said Bob Ries, lead product manager, metal detec-tion and X-ray inspection, Thermo Fisher.

The Thermo Scientific Xpert C400 detects metal, glass, dense plastics and other contaminants in packa-ged food. The system also can analyze an X-ray image to estimate weight and fill or determine whe-ther a packaged item has missing objects. The system’s highly sensitive detec-tors are available in multiple resolu-tions (0.8/0.4mm), and its suite of algorithms is designed to find small contaminants in complex images with few, if any, false rejects.

“A variety of food safety initiatives are driving the migration from me-tal detection to X-ray technology. With many leading food retailers now mandating that their products be inspected by X-ray before being

placed on store shelves, the Xpert C400 is designed for plants desi-ring a reliable mid-to-high level X-ray inspection system,” said Ries.

Due to its improved design and component quality, the Thermo Scientific Xpert C400 is designed to run around the clock in harsh environments with less maintenan-ce and fewer repairs than other sy-stems. It was internally tested by Thermo Fisher to fully meet IP65 require-ments for dust and washdown and operates over a wide 5° to 40° C temperature range. Because of its modular design and built-in remote support capability, technicians can troubleshoot and service the sy-stem quickly, minimizing expensive downtime.

C hocolate pieces give the taste and appearance of baked goods, muesli and ice

cream a special touch. Different forms and flavour experiences create variety and drive repeat purchases. HERZA Schokolade now supports manufac-turers in all categories with individual mixes of small chocolate and glazed pieces that offer industrial and artisan producers a number of advantages. From HERZA’s broad product range, makers of baked goods, muesli and ice cream can select just the right combination of chocolate and glazed pieces they require for a perfect fit with a final product and its price structure. The proportions of individual compo-nents can be precisely adjusted. For example, high priced items like golden nuggets can be included also in small quantities as a highlight. The chocolate piece mixes are perfectly coordinated in terms of appearance and mouthfeel. This enables manufacturers to create innovative products that offer new and interesting sensations to the consumer over and over again.

Simple handling, reducedcosts, maximum effectiveness Simple handling is another benefit. With the new chocolate piece mixes, HERZA customers benefit from the at-tractiveness of the combination of dif-ferent chocolate pieces, while buying them as a mix considerably reduces the effort in terms of purchasing, logis-tics and quality control. The use of mix-es allows customers to minimize their stock. It also simplifies manufacturing processes, as individual production steps can be eliminated. For custom-ers, who due to their production set-up can use just one kind of chocolate piece in their final product, this opens up attractive new possibilities.

Purchase-driving mixes for ice creamFor imaginative ice-cream creations HERZA offers for example a mix of ex-tra-large chocolate chips in white, milk and dark varieties. Another composi-tion consists of double caramel chips and peanut flavour glaze pieces. The polished cocoa nibs are a new product idea especially for use with ice cream. They contain no additives, so they can be used as clean-label products. The nibs feature a shiny look and have a natural water barrier. Together with the golden crunchy cocoa nibs they give ice cream a distinctive look and special enjoyment value - two factors that are strong purchase drivers for consumers.

New accents for baked goodsWith mixtures of white and dark choco-late shavings or baking-stable caramel chips and milk chocolate chips, and of polished cocoa nibs and silver-coated chocolate pieces, bakeries and the baked goods industry can give their cakes, pies and other baked goods an individual note. They can also catch consumers’ attention with colourful mixes, for example dark chocolate piec-es combined with blue and gold-coated chocolate pieces, or chocolate nuggets

with silver, red and brown colour ac-cents. Like the different toppings of cupcakes, HERZA’s customized choco-late mixes enable an endless variety of attractive new baking creations.

Compositions address muesli lifestyle approachesMueslis combine healthy nutrition with high enjoyment. HERZA has created chocolate mixes that address both as-pects. Think of a special mix of white and milk chocolate leaves. What’s special about it is the high 20 percent protein content of the white chocolate pieces, targeted at fitness-oriented consumers. A flavourful variety is as-sured by mixes of white and milk choc-olate double chips in combination with strawberry glaze pieces, or chocolate leaves with 40 percent cocoa plus white chocolate leaves. Customer-specific mixes offer manu-facturers high value-addition potential, as HERZA Sales Director Carsten Brau-mann explains: “More and more fre-quently, customers look for individual chocolate pieces that allow them to stand out from the competition. With our custom mixes of chocolate and glaze products, we’ve developed new possibilities that can benefit industrial and artisanal manufacturers alike.”

F or more than 50 years Real Forni has been working in the development of ovens

and equipment for the baking sector supporting the professionals from all over the world in this important food sector. The new rotary oven Boss combines innovation and re-searches with the yearly experience and tradition of the company thus making Boss the reference model of its category. Maximum efficiency, reduced overall dimensions and low consumption are the key features that allow the user to save energy and space, re-duce the cost of maintenance and improve the result on the baked product.A good ventilated baking for a rotary oven consists in the correct distribu-tion of the heat and in the ability to bake the product with a gentle and abundant flow of air: this is the only way to equal the baking of a static

oven. Another ultimate point is the ability of the oven to produce a great quan-tity of steam in a very short time and to regenerate it for the following baking. Thanks to the steamer posi-tioned in the middle of the air flow, the oven Boss guarantees quick-ness and power to obtain crumbly products with a crisp crust.In the planning stage we have worked hard on the consumption and the results are real, indeed the oven Boss 60.80 heats up very quickly and it needs only 50.000 installed kcal/h! This is possible thanks to a system of baking en-dowed with two powerful fans and an heat exchanger with triple turn of fumes and to a system of insulation consisting in three layers of rock wool compressed panels. As for the consumption, this system is extremely virtuous and with the addition of reduced overall dimen-

sions it is possible to position the oven side by side on its three sides. These features give you the possibil-ity to save a huge quantity of space inside your place in comparison to any other oven in commerce.The range starts from the smallest 50.70 which is able to contain a trolley of 40x60, 40x80, 50x70 or 18”x26”of 16/18 trays, its reduced dimensions allow the transporta-tion of the oven completely assem-bled. For trays 60x80 we can offer the classic Boss 60.80 with 18/20 trays or the “reduced” Boss with 16/18 trays (Boss 60.80 R) which is perfect for places not so high. The range includes also the 60.100 model for trolleys 60x90, 60x100 and 80x80 and the largest Boss 80.100. All models are available with gas or gas-oil burner or electric power sup-ply. The ovens are provided with a lower platform for the rotative trolley

in order to have an easy entry of the trolley, a motorised flue valve and stainless steel side panels. You can choose, as an optional fea-ture, the fume exhaust from the rear wall of the oven or an advanced LCD display programmer.There is also the brand new innova-tive and spectacular “Panorama” version which has a glass on the back side that enable the direct view of the baking process inside the oven, which is realized with a double inside glass with a very high insula-tion and with an external curved and openable glass for maximum safety, cleaning and beauty. This oven is perfect to separate the laboratory from the sale zone and it can be a great attraction both in shopping centers and in small bak-eries because it guarantees a privi-leged view on the baking process, keeping a clear division between laboratory and commercial zone. A LCD display inserted on the top, exposed to the public, is also avail-able. This LCD display shows the state and the type of product which is baking (Baguette - ready in 11 minutes) with photos in high resolu-tion.

Real FoRni: maximale leistung und minimaleR platzbedarf, perfektes backergebnis und geringe kostenS eit 50 Jahren steht Real

Forni den Vertretern der Backkunst aus aller Welt

mit der Entwicklung von Öfen und Geräten für diese wichtige Leb-ensmittelbranche zur Seite. Inno-vation, Forschung, Erfahrung und höchster Respekt für Traditionen bilden die Grundlage zu dem neuen rotierenden Stikkenbackofen Boss.

Ein Ofen, der keine Kompromisse eingeht, einzigartige Vorteile kom-biniert und so zum Vorbild seiner Klasse wird. Maximale Leistung und minimaler Platzbedarf, perfek-tes Backergebnis und geringe Kos-ten: mit dem rotierenden Stikken-backofen Boss spart man nicht nur Energie, Platz und Wartungskos-ten, man steigert auch die Qualität

der eigenen Produkte.Um ein gutes Backergebnis sich-erstellen zu können, muss der ro-tierende Stikkenbackofen nicht nur eine gleichmäßige Hitzeverteilung garantieren, sondern das Produkt auch ausreichend mit einem san-ften Luftstrom versorgen. Nur so können mit Umluft dieselben Ergeb-nisse wie mit Ober- und Unterhitze

erzielt werden. Ebenso wichtig ist, dass der Ofen in kürzester Zeit große Mengen an Dampf erzeugen kann und gleichzeitig in der Lage ist, sich auf den nächsten Back-vorgang vorzubereiten. Mit seinem Schwadenapparat, der inmitten des Luftstroms angeordnet ist, ga-rantiert der Ofen Boss für kurze Backzeiten und hohe Leistung, die ihrerseits für innen weiches und außen knuspriges Gebäck sorgen. Besonders intensiv wurde bei der Entwicklung auch am Energiever-brauch gearbeitet, mit greifbaren Ergebnissen. Trotz raschem Tem-peraturanstieg bedarf der Ofen Boss 60.80 einer installierten Hei-zleistung von nur 50.000 kcal/h. Möglich macht dies ein Backsys-tem, das mit zwei leistungsstarken Ventilatoren und einem Dreifach-Wärmetauscher ausgestattet ist. Für eine effiziente Isolierung sor-gen komprimierte Steinwollplatten, die in drei Schichten rund um das Backsystem angeordnet sind. Das System erweist sich dabei nicht nur als besonders energie- sondern auch als überaus platzsparend, da nur eine Front des Ofens frei bleiben muss. Im Vergleich zu allen anderen zurzeit auf dem Markt erhältlichen Öfen lassen sich in Backstube oder Geschäftslokal so Unmengen von Platz einsparen. Erhältlich ist Boss als „kleiner“ 50.70, für Stikkenwä-gen von 40x60, 40x80, 50x70 oder 18”x26” mit 16/18 Blechen. Dank seiner geringen Größe kann dieser Ofen vollmontiert transportiert und geliefert werden. Für 60x80-Bleche gibt es dann den Boss 60.80 in klassischer Ausführung für 18/20 Bleche oder in Niedrigausführung für 16/18 Bleche (Boss 60.80 R), ideal für Räume von geringer Höhe. Das Sortiment umfasst auch den 60.100 für Stikkenwägen von 60x90, 60x100 und 80x80 sowie den „großen“ Boss 80.100. Alle Modelle können mit Gasbrenner, Ölbrenner oder als Elektroofen betrieben werden. Die Öfen sind

im unteren Bereich mit einer Ro-tationsplattform ausgestattet, die ein einfaches Einschieben des Stik-kenwagens ermöglicht. Außerdem verfügen sie über eine motorisi-erte Klappe zum Entschwaden der Backkammer und seitliche Abdeck-ungen aus Edelstahl. Auf Wunsch kann der Rauchabzug an der Hint-erseite angeordnet und der Ofen mit einer fortschrittlichen, pro-grammierbaren Steuerung auf LCD-Bildschirm ausgestattet werden.Aufsehen erregend und innovativ ist auch die neueste Version Pano-rama, die über eine Glasrückwand den direkten Blick auf die Back-kammer freigibt. Die interne Dop-pelverglasung garantiert dabei für höchste Isolierung, während die geschwungene Außenverglasung

geöffnet werden kann und für eine sichere Handhabung sowie ein sauberes und ansprechendes Er-scheinungsbild sorgt. Als ideales Trennelement zwischen Backstube und Verkaufsraum zieht Panorama sowohl in Einkaufszentren als auch in kleinen Bäckereien alle Blicke auf sich. Mit seiner Glasrückwand bietet der Ofen einen einzigartigen Blick auf den Backvorgang und sorgt gleichzeitig für eine klare Trennung zwischen Backstube und Verkaufsbereich. Darüber hin-aus ist auch ein LCD-Bildschirm verfügbar, der über der Glasfront angebracht werden kann und den Kunden zusammen mit einem Foto in hoher Auflösung über Backzeit und Produkt (Baguette - in 11 Mi-nuten fertig) informiert.

F rom fryers to griddles to ovens, heat is an impor-tant component in most

foodservice applications. When it comes to the heat source for frying, not all heating elements are cre-ated equal. Electric fryer heaters can be seg-mented into two broad categories – round tubular heaters, and flat tu-bular heaters. When first introduced, fryer heaters were round tubular. But engineers found that a flat tubular design offered many benefits – the most important being that the shape lifts the oil into the cook zone far bet-ter than round heaters. An innovation was born.

Flat Surface GeometryBecause of its design and geometry, flat tubular heaters will heat viscous fluids from ambient temperature faster than round tubular elements with the same wattage and at a lower sheath temperature. The benefit of this shape is the enhanced flow of liq-uid past the surface of the heating el-ement. The round tubular has a much more erratic flow pattern (see graph-ic). Note the currents swirl around and trap heat next to the sheath. This is due to the tubular’s round shape, which causes a wider and less effi-cient flow of liquid around the heater surface.The flow pattern around the flat tubu-lar heater is streamlined; the flat sur-face has less restriction on the liquid as it moves up and past the heater sides. This efficient and faster flow pattern permits the liquid to move heat away from the sheath very quick-ly, resulting in the flat tubular heater’s lower operating sheath temperature (see graphic).

Greater Buoyancy ForceThis natural convection phenomenon partially depends on the ratio of a buoy-ancy force to the viscous force of the fluid being heated. The buoyancy force or the flow of liquid up and across the heater surface is mainly determined by the length of the heater sides. The side of a flat tubular heater is typically 1 in. (25 mm), compared to the 0.43 in. (10.9 mm) or less dimension of a round tubular element. The flat tubular heat-er’s smaller edge and longer side cre-ates a buoyancy force up to ten times greater than a round tubular heater de-pending on the material being heated.

Smaller Dimension Normal to FlowThis feature refers to the width dimen-sion of the heater that the liquid flows around. Typically, a narrower dimen-sion will give a smoother and faster liquid flow. For example, the round tubular’s wide dimension, nearly a half-inch, inhibits the flow of liquid. It causes currents which disrupt the flow and the flow rate is somewhat slower. The flat tubular heater, on the other hand, has a much thinner dimension 0.235 in. (5.97 mm), which reduces the drag forces on the liquid flowing past the heater. This allows the liquid to move past the flat heater faster than

the round heater. The end result – the flat tubular gets the heated liquid into the work zone faster than when using a round tubular. The flat tubular heater has about a 50 percent greater surface area than a round tubular. This surface area design improvement is the key to lowering watt density for the same length heater or reducing the heater size while maintaining the same watt density.

Faster Heat Up Flat surface technology provides faster heat up and recovery times than round tubular heaters. Their unique shape minimizes coking and oil degradation, and enhances the flow of the oil past the element’s surface, helping to pull heat away from the heater sheath. Compacted magnesium oxide (MgO) insulation transfers heat away from resistance wire to sheath material and media more efficiently, shortening heat-up time. In addition, the heater lasts longer because it runs at a sig-nificantly lower sheath temperature than an equal watt density round tu-bular. This also prolongs the life of the

oil which shortens and reduces costs from frequent changing. If coking is a problem, it is an indica-tion that the sheath temperature is too hot and is burning the oil. A flat tubu-lar heater will provide a lower sheath temperature than a round tubular el-ement, without reducing wattage or watt density. Coking is also reduced by the wiping action that occurs as the heated liquid flows past the heaters surface. The result is less liquid degra-dation and longer liquid life. Watlow’s flat tubular heater, called FIREBAR®, has long been a standard in the foodservice industry. An inde-pendent study that adhered to the American Society for Testing and Ma-terials (ASTM) standards, called “Pro-totype Element Performance Test,” revealed that the FIREBAR flat heating element was the first to consistently return the oil to the 171°C (340°F) re-load temperature. FIREBAR also main-tained the highest average cook zone temperature of the heating elements tested, recorded the fastest pre-heat time and offered one of the lowest pre-heat energy consumption levels ever tested. During the performance comparison test of the FIREBAR heater versus an equivalent kW round tubular heater, per ASTMs test method F1361-7, the FIREBAR heater’s fast recovery allowed cooking of six heavy loads of french fries versus five heavy loads of an equivalent tubular or a 20 percent capacity improvement (see below).

Reduced Watt DensityFlat tubular heaters can be operated at a higher watt density than a round tubular heating element without in-creasing the sheath temperature. Flat tubular heaters also allow more wattage into the application at the same watt density with a shorter heating element. Both types of heat-ers can have the same wattage, but the flat tubular will operate at a lower sheath temperature than the round tubular. In tests conducted to demonstrate this phenomenon, both heater types had a watt density of 30 and were im-mersed in a light liquid shortening. The flat tubular element heated the oil faster from ambient temperature than the round tubular. At 149°C (300°F), the flat tubular element heated the oil to temperature in 11 minutes where as the round tubular took 18 minutes. Plus, the flat tubular heater’s average sheath temperature was 10°C (50°F) lower than the round tubular.

Customizable, Easy to InstallFIREBAR can be wired 3-phase, mak-ing installation easier and cheaper while reducing the size of the heating assembly. FIREBAR heating elements can be formed into virtually any shape for an immersion application. This flat tubular heater can be configured with a variety of wattage and voltage rat-ings, terminations, sheath materials and mounting options to satisfy the most demanding foodservice applica-tions. The FIREBAR is typically con-structed with epoxy or silicone seals to combat moisture contamination from environmental kitchen conditions.Roly Juliano is a global applied ther-mal expert focused on Asia for Wat-low.

Its capacity is from 9 to 25 kg/h according to the inlet product and recipe. After the roasting cycle,

product is automatically discharged into the cooling unit, which has got the function of cleaner as well for dry fruits like hazelnuts, etc. Unloading manually the cooled co-coa beans, they will be charged into the loading hopper of the chopping machine for their dicing and clean-ing. Skins will be aspired by the as-pirator for leaving the three cuts of cocoa nibs completely cleaned.Cocoa mass will be produced with the pre-refining mill CBM/5 with a finesse of 80/120 micron ready to be loaded into the conching ma-chine CR150 of the DECA 20 auto-matic refining line. Once conched, according to its quality, the other ingredients of the final recipe (sugar, cocoa butter, milk powder, etc) will be added for the mixing cycle and they will be au-tomatically loaded into the balls mill SFERA 20R for each refining cycle by 20 kg. Product will be then discharged into a vibrating filter for an additional filtering of the product before its stocking into the storing tank ID-TK

300.Once obtained cocoa mass, vari-ous productions could be applied for any kind of desired product like chocolate or substitutes with the AUTOMATIC PREPARATION LINE, composed by two melter-mixers ANDE 1000, a conching machine CR1000 with its storing tank for the direct supply of the refining units: two balls mills SFERA 150 dedicated to milk and dark choco-late production and one DECA 150 automatic refining line dedicate to white chocolate one. The complete installation is managed by a main panel control in any step of produc-tion from conching to storing the final product into the dedicated tank.A parallel production could be ef-fected with the CREAM ID 150 LINE, an automatic line for preparation, crystallization, aromatization and packaging of spreadable creams. The preparation process is effected by the REFINING DECA 150 line with an overall capacity of 600 kg composed by a melter-mixer ANDE 60S by 600 kg, a balls mill SFERA

150 by 150 kg, lecithin dosing tank and a main panel control with touch screen and Siemens plc for the management and control of the complete line and production.The spreadable cream will be au-tomatically discharged into a stor-

ing tank before going into the con-tinuous tempering machine ID-VT 250 for the crystallization process. Through the tempering process, the structure of the cream by itself will be stabilized for the following pro-cessing step.Aromatization of cream is possi-

ble through the additional mixer in which you can add inclusions of other ingredients like small pieces of biscuits, dry fruits, cornet or nou-gat, etc for making the spreadable cream absolutely special and per-sonalized.

Finally, it will be packed into the de-sired pots of different sizes with the semi-automatic filling and capping unit ID-RT600Production capacity of our ma-chines mainly starts from 20 kg/h, through 50, 150 kg/h up to 250 kg/h for single machine and auto-

matic lines.For DECA refining automatic lines, production can vary in accordance with raw materials and percentage used. They have been designed for production of pure chocolate or substitutes, spreadable creams, hazelnut, pistachio and almond paste, with minimum percentage of fat material of 28-30%, and 32-34% for pure chocolate. They could be composed by a mixer ANDE or a conching machine CR according to the production to be performed: if you want to produce pure chocolate from cocoa liquor, a conching machine CR is needed with mixing function as well after conching. If you want to produce substitutes, spreadable creams, etc., the line will be composed with a mixer ANDE for melting fats and for mixing solid ingredients to be refined.These automatic compact lines, as well as the single balls mills, they allow a remarkably flexibility in pro-duction, easily cleanable, low ener-gy consumption and with closed wa-ter circuit for heating and cooling.The DECA 50 automatic line is com-posed by a melter-mixer ANDE30S, balls mill SFERA 50, lecithin dos-ing tank, balls mill cooling unit and main panel control for the manage-ment of the whole line. Its overall capacity is of 300 kg with refining cycle by 50 kg. These lines could be completed by an automatic discharging of the product into a

storing tank, ID-TK 300 which has got two functions: keeping the product at right temperature or aromatizing it with solids inclusions with an addi-

tional recycling pump.Following step in the chocolate production is moulding process. These installations could be semi-

automatic or completely automatic according to production required. The semi-automatic ID-TRONIC 275 line has an overall capacity of 100-150 kg/h for the production of full chocolate including a volumetric depositor for solids inclusion. Alongwith moulding process, enrob-ing one is applied for the produc-tion of dragées or coated rice cakes or biscuits ect. With the complete coating unit ID-BASS 80 it is possible to produce various products like pralines and dragées, for enrobing various prod-ucts like hazelnuts, almonds, pis-tachios, pine nuts, coffee beans, cereals, sultana, etc. Ideal for medium productions, it is

completely realized in stainless steel AISI 304. Raw ingredients will be charged into the coating pan ID-BASS 80 with a maximum capacity of 70 kg and with the nebulizer ID-SPRAY 20 chocolate will be sprayed into the pan for the coating of the product. Second step is product’s shining with the use of the external mov-able cooling unit ID-COOL which will blow cool air for keeping the right temperature during both coating and shining. Ideo Tecnica has got also a vast stock of used equipment granting customers’service for revi-sion and spare parts for machines produced by: Carle&Montanari, Bühler, Sollich, Kreuter, etc. Our factory is also equipped with

a complete laboratory processing line for effecting production’s tests with customer’s ingredients from cocoa beans to the desired final products.

S ulbana has been equip-ping food factories with low pressure foam clean-

ing systems for more than 20 years.Because of the partnership with FOAMICO, Danish constructor of the foam cleaning equipment, we are offering complete system solutions for cleaning and disin-fecting surfaces in the food indus-try.Low-pressure foam cleaning is now a well-established procedure in food-processing factories.Our technology provides an effi-cient, gentle, fast and inexpensive cleaning method for surfaces and production equipment.With regular use, you will maximize the hygiene of your factory.

The entire cleaning process is per-formed using the same system:

❶ Pre-clean with hot water at 23 bar pressure

❷ Foam cleaning with reaction time of 10-15 minutes

❸ Rinse-off with hot water at 23 bar pressure

❹ Spray or foam disinfectant (followed by rinsing if neces-

Important advantages and benefits for your factory:› A cleaning system for all applica-tions› Gentle cleaning and efficient re-moval of detached contaminant due to low pressure› The lather even reaches relatively inaccessible places and reduces manual cleaning to a minimum› Low aerosol formation (no germ-laden spray caused by high water pressure)› Energy saving because low water temperatures are used for cleaning› Highly versatile, can be used with different cleaning products

Low pressure cleaning technology for the food industry

SULBANA FP 3/14.indd 3 20/06/14 16:22

› Low-maintenance, stainless steel centrifugal pumps with speed-regu-lated frequency controller› Low vibration effect on the hands and arms due to use of centrifugal pumps› Each cleaning device can be connected to up to three different chemicals with different metering rates and can be easily used by just moving only one handle› Constant chemical metering rate due to permanently installed orifice plates in the injector› Low service costs due to simple and robust technology

The booster system, equipped with central booster pump, may supply any number of satellite stations with water at elevated pressure. The size of the booster is deter-mined by the number of people who simultaneously use the clean-ing system. The cleaning staff can rinse, foam and disinfect at each satellite sta-tion independently.

The satellites can be installed on the wall or on a trolley and operate without electricity and therefore do not require any electrical connec-tion. Booster units are available mounted on stainless steel floor stands or in hygienic stainless steel cabinets for wall mounting.

Sulbana also provides new equip-ments: the new Generation NEXT provided with the FO1 technology. Thanks to the innovative injector technology of our satellites and our specialized know-how in the low-pressure cleaning, we can optimize the system to limit as much as pos-sible the pressure loss.The surfaces and equipments of your company will then be cleaned faster and in a cheaper way.It is also simple and safe to use: there is only one robust rotary han-dle on its side and a single central outlet for all the functions. So, it is no longer necessary to replace the cleaning hose.Moreover, the detergent and dis-

infectant suction hoses are distin-guished by different colours, that is the same colours used on the chemicals’ tanks and on the icons of the rotary handle.The robust stainless steel cabinets are designed according to the IFS requirements, so that there are no electronic components inside. They are also equipped with a large front cover to ensure the perfect access in case of maintenance.This technology, properly combined with the nozzles and accessories of the F01 series, increases the cleaning power. As a matter of fact, it allows to enlarge the distance between the cleaning nozzles and the surface, that is to enlarge the dimensions of the water-jet, that is, in turn, to enlarge the cleaned surface.In this way efficiency and efficacy are considerably increased.

A great help to the food processing companies, where cleaning is al-ways a really complex issue.

T echnical cleanliness is no trend. It is essential in the pro-duction and assembly of ever

more complex products with increasing quality requirements. Components and units whose function can be impaired by dirt must be produced and assem-bled in a technically clean environment. It is for this reason that the renowned screwdriving technology specialists DEPRAG SCHULZ GMBH u. CO. have placed great emphasis on the realisa-tion of technical cleanliness in assem-bly processes using standardised solu-tions as shown at the AUTOMATICA this year from the 3rd to the 6th of June in Munich. In Hall A6, at exhibition stand 310 the company demonstrates varied detailed solutions focusing on technical cleanliness in screw assembly.“For all the innovative individual solu-tions which we present at the trade fair, the complete assembly process should always be considered”, explains Jürgen Hierold, Sales Manager at DEPRAG. The approach towards technical cleanliness relates to all areas, beginning with the design and production of components, training of personnel, layout of produc-tion environment, the assembly and entire logistical processes. But the discussion into technical cleanliness really comes to the fore in the selec-tion of suitable assembly equipment for joining technology. “The technology and components used in the realisation of technical cleanliness must be avail-able at a competitive price. Technical cleanliness should be achievable with-out massive extra costs and individual components must be compatible with each other”, adds Jürgen Hierold. This is one challenge which the screw automa-tion company DEPRAG has mastered by implementing their CleanFeed concept.

Diverse standard components have been developed, incorporating decades of processing knowledge, which all have one aim: the prevention of abrasion dur-ing feeding of fasteners and the system-atic suction of dirt particles within the screwdriving process.But what is the best course of action? First the cleanliness requirements for the product should be precisely defined. Only in cooperation with the quality management, production and logistics teams will there be the best possible chance to achieve technical cleanliness and therefore reliability. Well-trained staff are equally as important as a clean production environment. It is imperative to keep the cleanroom meticulously pristine. This relates above all to peo-ple, material or transport that bring in damaging particles. Screwdriving tools and feeding technology for the cleanroomSuitability for use in a cleanroom must be considered starting with the screw-driving tool. Even insertion of a bit into the screw’s drive head can generate undesired abrasive particles. DEPRAG screwdrivers from the series MINIMAT®-EC-Servo reduce speed as the screw-driver makes contact with the bit. In-built sensors recognise the exact screw position and ensure the correct contact point of the bit with the screw head. Only once contact has been established does the speed increase thereby mini-mising abrasion. Any remaining residual particles are suctioned off by a vacuum device. Covering and screwdriving templates on the components also reduce the risk of the collection of particles. “All our screwdriving function modules can be used for under-floor screw assembly

due to their small size. Therefore grav-ity can be useful in reducing particles and enabling technically clean assem-bly”, explains Jürgen Hierold. Additional equipment such as dirt deflectors col-lect fallen particles for simple removal. The use of ESD-enabled materials can also reduce dirt from static load. Jürgen Hierold: “Our CleanFeed complete pack-age comprises all options for particle minimisation”. However particles do not only appear during the screw assembly procedures, feeding the connection ele-ments can also cause friction. “There-fore it is very important to select the correct feeding technology and consid-er the separation of screws in order to achieve a reduction in particles”, states Jürgen Hierold. Most vibratory feeders transport screws with pulsing move-ments in a feed bowl which consequent-ly cause the parts to rub on each other and create abrasive contaminants. Sword feeders offer a more component friendly, low abrasion realisation of technical cleanliness. The feed parts in the container are moved using a stroke action into an adapted segment shaped sword. They slide along mechanical rails using gravity and reach the screw separator already sorted. Incorrectly positioned fasteners are returned to the container along mechanical rails. A sensor in the supply rail regulates the amount of stroke movement required. If fewer parts are being used by the operator then the feeder will supply fewer parts. The DEPRAG sword feed-ers are available in two sizes with 0.15 l or 1.5 l fill volumes. The depth of in-house production, use of hardened low wear materials as well as specific coat-ing procedures ensure the consistently high quality, reliability and efficiency of the DEPRAG sword feeders.

“F or us, Festo’s valve terminal concept CPX/MPA is a great support

for opening the way to a completely new machine generation,” explains Stefano Rini, Head of Research and Development with Cama Group in It-aly. The positive effect of this is that the space requirements of the new Cama packaging machines have been reduced by approximately a third. This is one of the reasons why it is called Cama’s “Breakthrough Generation”. This means complete-ly new horizons for branded-product manufacturers with regard to the layout of the plant in their factories. They now have more space avail-able and gain flexibility for the inte-gration of other plant components into the production line.

New horizonsCama called this innovation process the “Cama Breakthrough Genera-tion”. This new concept of machines highlights Cama’s renowned lean design of secondary packaging ma-chinery and robots. “This machine generation will create entirely new opportunities for growth for us”, pre-dicts Rini. One characteristic feature of conventional machines is the large control cabinet outside the main structure of the machine. The control-lers within this cabinet are connected to the drives, sensors and valves by a multiplicity of cables and lengths of tubing several metres long.

More compact machinesWith the Breakthrough Generation, Cama restyled completely its ma-

chines. That allows reducing the machine footprint by integrating the control cabinets with the electrical and pneumatic components into the machine pedestals angles. Such a compact machine footprint helps to minimise cabling and makes it easier to place the utility devices right where they are needed and thus easily ac-cessible. Core product is the Festo valve terminal CPX/MPA with protec-tion class IP65.“Significantly fewer and shorter ca-bles and tubes to be connected sim-plify and shorten installation. This is a further distinguishing feature of the new machines,” enthusiastically explains the machine builder as he describes the gain in efficiency. CPX links the pneumatic and electrical control chains and connects these

simply, quickly, flexibly and seam-lessly to any automation concept and in accordance with any company-spe-cific standards. “What is more, the CPX offers diagnostic functions. This makes it easy for us to meet the de-mands of large branded-product man-ufacturers, for example for preventive maintenance,” continues Rini.

Greater safetyAttention has also been paid to the topic of machine safety. The Festo soft-start and exhaust valve MS6-SV is used to exhaust the system. It provides reliable protection against unexpected start-up and has an ex-haust capacity 1.5 times its pres-surisation capacity.Among the new Breakthrough Ma-chine Generation, Cama is now in-troducing the CL 175, an extremely flexible side-loading cartoning ma-chine. It has been completely re-designed, both in layout and func-tioning. This machine can load flow-wraps, pouches, bags, thermo-formed trays, blisters and more into pre-glued cartons. In a first step they are picked from the storage station, opened and, by a rotary unit, placed into the moving conveyor pockets.

Clever technology mixThe side-loading unit loads the products into the cartons with an intermittent-continuous motion. This handling unit consists mainly of a Festo electric axis EGC for a precise approach to intermediate positions and a pneumatic mini slide DGSL. EGC helped to reduce the mounting time by 30% compared to previous self-made electrical axis. The use of both pneumatic and electrical drive technologies allows high precision to be obtained together with a high load capacity. In a next step, the cartons move towards the final closure sta-tion. It can work in continuous or in-termittent mode. Finally the cartons get onto the outfeed conveyor. “For us, the Festo brand is very strongly associated with the quali-

ties of innovation and competency. Its innovative valve terminals with CPX and fieldbus considerably re-duce the amount of wiring and tub-ing required and thus also reduce the space required by our machines. Festo’s innovations therefore enable us as an OEM, and our end custom-ers, to take a large step forward”, concludes Stefano Rini, describing the results of working with Festo.

Global availabilityThere is also a practical benefit: Festo is active in 176 countries all around the world. Festo service per-sonnel can therefore quickly go to the end customers of Cama Group to assist with questions regarding the commissioning of components and systems or to provide other ser-vices. That gives everyone involved a feeling of confidence.

T he high level of efficiency of its coaxial gear motors is one of Mini Motor’s tradition-

al strengths, in addition to its high product quality and uncompromising operating precision.Industry players and clients through-out the world are now well aware that these three values are the re-sult of a design and production cycle that takes place entirely within the company, including thorough checks performed during each stage of pro-cessing. Yet they may be less aware that a significant part of the compa-ny’s business relates to demand for special products with non-standard characteristics and specifications, which is why Mini Motor often con-ducts additional tests aimed at en-suring the efficiency of certain mod-els under particular operating stress conditions. The case in point relates to a special stress test performed on a coaxial gear motor with a planetary reduction unit for 24 continuous months: the results met the highest of expectations in terms of the prod-uct’s durability and reliability.

An exacting request by the customerThe end customer wanted absolute certainty that the selected gear mo-tors were perfectly efficient in view of intense, constant use, consider-ing that the motors are to be applied to actuate large industrial systems. Faced with this request, Mini Motor identified the coaxial model as the most appropriate solution, adopting

a non-standard reduction ratio for this purpose.

A particularly “stressful” testMini Motor then recreated the con-ditions of actual use of the product by applying it to a de-humidifier sup-plied by the customer in an environ-ment with a constant temperature of 20°C. In reality, it went further, “exacerbating” those conditions through special measures that ren-dered operation of the gear motor considerably more stressful, firstly by depriving it of its cooling fan, which could have resulted in overheating, and then by accelerating wear and tear. It then operated the motor continuously, 24 hours a day, for a total of over 15,000 hours of opera-tion, corresponding to approximately

24 months. Over this long period of time, the gear motor was monitored daily to verify electrical power con-sumption, engine temperature and the condition of the Viton oil gaskets.The result? Electrical power con-sumption was perfectly normal and the gaskets held up as planned, while the temperature of the engine without the fan climbed as high as 57°C without consequences. In or-der to check gear wear and tear, it was necessary to await the end of the test and disassemble the motor: no surprises here, either, unless of the positive variety, given that the level of wear and tear was stand-ard, especially considering that 15 months under those conditions cor-respond to a significantly longer pe-riod of use.

FROM MINI MOTOR, EFFICIENCY THAT HOLDS UP UNDER STRESSMore than 24 months of constant operation under severe conditions: this recent stress test of Mini Motor was passed with flying colours by a coaxial gear motor designed for a specific application

T he program of the Interna-tional Exhibition of technolo-gies and solutions for the

food industry 50th edition was pre-sented in Milan on Tuesday 17 June. Cibus Tec-Food Pack 2014 will be powered in partnership by Fiere di Parma and UCIMA (Italian Packaging Machinery Manufacturers Associa-tion) . The show aims at confirming its international importance and will once again be designed by the Steer-ing Committee members represent-ing top food companies. Once again on show in Parma the Made in Italy food technology as exhibition and in-dustrial best practice.

(Milan, June 17, 2014) – Cibus Tec - Food Pack, solutions for 9 agro-food chains: Fruit and Vegetables, Dairy, Meat and Fish, Convenience Food, Fresh Cut, Bakery and Cereal by-products, Confectionery, Frozen Foods, Liquid Foods, Semi-liquid Products. The complete line of food&bev technologies: from pro-cessing to packaging, coding, mark-

ing, labeling, end-of-line, handling, storage, traceability, logistics, from environmental technologies to food safety solutions. Exhibiting partici-pation surface is up by 40%. Thirty conferences and lectures will focus on the future challenges of the sec-tor. In a word, Cibus Tec – Food Pack 2014 is once again a performing promotion, networking and business tool for international food and food technology companies.

In particular, Fiere di Parma’s strong

commitment to internationaliza-tion - including international busi-ness - matching with high potential markets (North America, Eastern Europe, South America, China, Rus-sia and Turkey) wants to boost food processing and packaging indus-tries. Because of the stagnation of the interior market, exports are the leading force of its activity: Italy is the second exporting country in the world (25.5%) after Germany (28.2%) with an annual growth rate of 7.9%.

“Thanks to UCIMA and the partner-ship with Kölnmesse, we are capi-talizing the 80-year long history of CIBUS TEC with the vocation and skills of our region- said Antonio Cel-lie, CEO of Fiere di Parma - We have been working for 5 years on syn-chronizing our show with the inter-national community that demanded a highly specialized exhibition; the most sophisticated and integrated technology solutions for food pro-cessing & packaging are our coun-

try’s trademark because our tech-nologies are designed for the Italian food industry, the most qualified and innovative industry in the world. The show can only take place in Parma, because the city is a only a few miles far from the “best practices” of the mechanic food sector. As with Cibus, Italy could well have Cibus Tec - Food Pack becoming a leader trade-show for the food technology sector”.

The recent joint-venture with UCIMA – the Italian Packaging Machinery Manufacturers Association– makes Parma Exhibition Centre the direct challenger for Germany’s world lead-ership .

“We launched Food Pack believing that a stronger presence of food packaging technology could be a plus for Cibus Tec, offering Italian and International visitors a complete showcase of food processing and packaging technologies “- says Ric-cardo Cavanna, UCIMA Vice Presi-dent, - “and facts are now proving us right. We strongly believe that Italy should return a leader in the world of international exhibitions, with shows able to reflect the importance of those sectors in which the country is world leader as far as innovation and market penetration are con-cerned. “

The partnership with Assocarni, Member of Confindustria and Fed-eralimentare, is of key importance for Cibus Tec. It’s the only Associa-tion representing the meat industry

from slaughter to processing and transformation, in the section called “Cold & Processed Meat”

The strategic agreement between Fiere di Parma and Koelnmesse – the 2nd exhibition Centre in the world - will give the opportunity to the food & beverage technology in-dustry - both in Parma and in Co-logne – to attract and welcome the food companies professionals par-ticipating in CIBUS and Anuga, re-spectively the world third and first food exhibition. Cbus Tec - Food Pack has scheduled an interesting program of confer-ences and seminars. In fact, the currently innovative trend is leading upwards the estimations of world population growth and downwards the agricultural land value and wa-ter resources: this is the reason why food&bev technology and packaging process will have a crucially impor-tant role to play in terms of sustain-ability and development.Research and technological innova-tion for a more “green” agro-food is the “leitmotiv” of meetings proposed

by Cibus Tec - Food Pack, proposing the challenge of Milan World Expo.Cibus Tec starts on Tuesday, Octo-ber 28 with the “World Food Forum” dedicated to Safety and Quality for the development of global supply; continues on Wednesday, 29 with “Looking Forward to Expo2015”, a conference organized in collabora-tion with the University of Parma fo-cusing on concrete business oppor-tunities through production process related to leftovers, organic products and food waste.As international PCO, Fiere di Parma hosts the 4th edition of the EHEDG World Congress on Hygienic Engi-neering and Design 2014. Organized in 30 and 31 October in collabora-tion with EHEDG - European Hygien-ic Engineering & Design Group.

More appointments dedicated to food industry sectors (Tomato Day, Milk Day, Meat Day, Forum Cereals, Fresh Tec Lab), “Food Packaging Fo-cus” seminars in collaboration with Ucima and the Conference “Logis-ticamente on Food”.Also confirmed for Cibus Tec - Food Pack 2014 is Fil Rouge ‘Food & Bev-erage’. This appointment - born from Fiere di Parma and Messe Frankfurt Italia collaboration - targets at foster-ing synergies between automation industry end-users of the food&bev industry. To complete the agenda, evening lectures on key issues for the sector: bioplastics, single service coffee / drinks and the new frontiers of digi-tal printing.

A ktuelle Getränketrends orientieren sich an Kon-sumenten fo rderungen

wie gesunde Ernährung, Wellness, Natürlichkeit und Qualität. Auch die jeweilige Verpackung gehört zu einem erfolgreichen Getränke-konzept. Die BrauBeviale ist die in diesem Jahr wichtigste Investitionsgütermesse für die Getränkewirtschaft, doch auch sie ist letztlich vom End-produkt beeinflusst. Sie findet vom 11. bis 13. November in Nürnberg statt und präsentiert sich im neuen Outfit: Die rund 1.300 Aussteller und ca. 33.000 Fachbesucher können sich auf ein komplett überarbe-itetes Messekonzept sowie Rah-menprogramm freuen. Mittelstand und Global Player profitieren vom

umfassenden Angebot rund um Rohstoffe, Technologien, Logistik und Marketingideen, aber auch in-ternationale Getränketrends stehen im Fokus.

„Nichts ist so beständig wie der Wandel.“ Dieses antike Zitat um-reißt die derzeitigen Entwicklungen der weltweiten Getränketrends ge-lungen. Zahlreichen global tätigen Getränkeherstellern steht eine wachsende Schar an kleinen und in-novativen Unternehmen gegenüber, die eigenständige Ideen umsetzen und vermarkten. Das kommt an, wie der in den USA und weltweit wach-sende Trend der kreativen Bierkul-tur demonstriert. „Kreative Bierkul-tur“ ist auch das Trendthema der diesjährigen BrauBeviale, die mit zahlreichen Veranstaltungen und

Aktionen diese weltweite Bewegung nach Franken – in die Heimat des Bieres – holt.

Globaler Getränkekonsum steigt kontinuierlichWurden 2008 knapp 240 Liter pro Kopf an Getränken konsumiert, waren es 2013 bereits etwa 265. Größte Wachstumstreiber sind die alkoholfreien Getränke wie abgefül-ltes Wasser (2008: 23; 2013: 29), heißer Tee (2008: 54; 2013: 58) sowie Milch und Milchgetränke (2008: 37; 2013: 40). Am lieb-sten wird bei den alkoholfreien Getränken weltweit heißer Tee getrunken, gefolgt von Milch und Milchgetränken, kohlensäurehalti-gen Erfrischungsgetränken, Was-ser, Bier, Kaffee und Spirituosen.

Deutschlands DurstlöscherNummer eins: MineralwasserFür die Deutschen war Mineralwas-ser mit einem Pro-Kopf-Verbrauch von 140 Litern auch 2013 liebster Durstlöscher. Eindeutiger Favorit war mit 85 Prozent kohlensäurehaltig-es Mineralwasser, international werden jedoch stille Wässer bev-orzugt (80 Prozent des abgefüllten Wassers). Fast drei Viertel des ver-packten Wassers weltweit werden in Asien, Westeuropa und Nor-damerika getrunken – wobei das größte Wachstum mit rund 12 Prozent 2013 in Asien stattfand. In Deutschland sind aber auch Er-frischungsgetränke sehr beliebt, also Cola-Getränke, Limonaden, Schorlen, Wasser mit Aromen, diätetische Erfrischungsgetränke, Energiegetränke, Brausen, Kaf-fee- und Teegetränke mit Fruchtsaf-tanteilen sowie kohlensäurehaltige und -freie Fruchtsaftgetränke. 125,5 Liter pro Kopf wurden davon 2013 getrunken. Besonders be-gehrt: kalorienfreie Cola-Getränke (+ 7,5 Prozent im Vergleich zum Vorjahr) und Fruchtsaftgetränke (+ 4,5 Prozent). (Quellen: Canadean/GB; Wirtschaftsvereinigung Alkoholfreie Getränke, D)

Alkoholfreie Getränke – Chan-cen für neue KreationenWährend verpacktes Wasser na-hezu weltweit immer beliebter wird, ist der Konsum kohlensäurehaltiger Erfrischungsgetränke global bere-its auf einem sehr hohen Niveau angelangt. Seit 2007 steigt der Umsatz hier nur noch in Süd- und Mittelamerika und dem Nahen Os-ten. Wachstumstreiber bleibt laut Rabobank in den nächsten drei Jahren Brasilien mit einem ge-schätzten Anstieg von drei Prozent pro Jahr. Weltmeister im Verbrauch von kohlesäurehaltigen Erfrischun-gsgetränken sind die Mexikaner mit 165 Litern pro Kopf, gefolgt von

den USA (145) und Argentinien (144). Bedeutendste Märkte für al-koholfreie Getränke weltweit sind die USA mit 352 Litern pro Kopf, Deutschland (342) und Argentinien (326). Innerhalb Europas folgen auf Deutschland Belgien (281) und die Schweiz (264), Schlusslichter sind Litauen (96), Russland (93) und die Ukraine (64). Neue Krea-tionen halten die Märkte in Bewe-gung: Ob innovative alkoholfreie Malzgetränke, mit Beta-Glucan an-gereicherte Fruchtsaftgetränke, die angeblich eine positive Wirkung auf die Herzgesundheit haben, neue Ingwer-Getränkekreationen oder mit Hilfe der lila Süßkartoffel pink gefärbte Getränke – der Phantasie sind kaum Grenzen gesetzt und der Verbraucher entscheidet sch-nell über Erfolg oder Misserfolg der Produkte. (Quelle: Canadean/GB)

Deutscher Bierabsatz 2013 leicht rückläufigDer Bierabsatz in Deutschland sank 2013 auf 94,6 Millionen Hektoliter (- zwei Prozent im Vergleich zum Vorjahr), wovon rund 84 Prozent davon für den Inlandsverbrauch bestimmt waren. Etwas mehr als zehn Millionen Hektoliter gingen in die EU-Länder (- 8,6 Prozent im Ver-gleich zum Vorjahr), 4,7 Millionen Hektoliter in Drittländer (+ 8,7 Pro-zent). Mit 4,2 Millionen Hektoliter machten Biermischgetränke 2013 4,5 Pro-

zent des gesamten Bierabsatzes aus, was ebenfalls einen leichten Rückgang von knapp zwei Pro-zent bedeutet. Eine interessante Entwicklung ist das zunehmende Interesse von China – mit einem Viertel des globalen Bierkonsums der weltgrößte Biermarkt – an deut-schem Bier. (Quelle: Statistisches Bundesamt/D)

Craft Brauereien auf weltweitem SiegeszugDie so genannten Craft Brau-ereien begannen in den USA in den 1980er Jahren, die handwerkliche Braukunst wieder aufzugreifen. Mit-tlerweile finden sich im US-Markt fast 2.800 Craft Brauereien mit mehr als 110.000 Mitarbeitern. Auch deutsche Brauer entdecken den Trend immer stärker für sich: würziges Pilsner, das mit Bergwies-en-Heuextrakt veredelt wird oder Biere, die sich neben dem kräftigen Röstaroma des Malzes durch einen Duft von milden Kräutern, Früh-lingsblumen und leichten Zitronen- und Fruchtnoten auszeichnen – das sind nur einige Beispiele dieser kreativen Bierkultur. Im weltweiten

BRAU FP 3/14.indd 4 18/06/14 11:45

Bierkonsum stand Deutschland 2013 mit 103 Litern pro Kopf auf Rang drei. Am meisten Bier wird nach wie vor in Tschechien (145) und Österreich (106) getrunken. Auch in den Top Ten: Estland, Polen, Irland, Finn-land, Rumänien, Bulgarien und Litauen – allesamt europäische Länder. (Quelle: Canadean/GB)

Kreative Bierkultur – Trendthe-ma der BrauBeviale 2014Getrieben wird das Trendthema vom ideellen Träger der Messe, den Pri-vaten Brauereien Bayern, und dem European Beer Star Award, der seit 2004 seine Messeheimat auf der BrauBeviale hat. Die Verleihung der 2014er Awards, von Sommeliers be-gleitete und freie Verkostungen, die Craft Beer Lounge, der Aussteller Parcours mit speziellen Lösungen für kreative Brauer oder das bere-its dritte gemeinsam mit der Ver-suchs- und Lehranstalt für Brauerei organisierte „European MicroBrew Symposium“ am Vortag der Messe sind einige Highlights. Im stylishen neuen Forum der BrauBeviale mit-ten im Messegeschehen eröffnet Jim Koch, Gründer und Geschäfts-führer der Boston Beer Company, die das berühmte Samuel Adams braut, die Messe. Hier geben sich zahlreiche weitere VIPs der interna-tionalen Brauerszene das Mikro in die Hand, so u. a. Charlie Papazian, Präsident der US-amerikanischen Brewers Association und Initiator des World Beer Cups, oder Dr. Marc Rauschmann, Frankfurter Braufac-tuM-Geschäftsführer.

Neue Verpackungsideen kommen an – auch auf der BrauBevialeFür alle Getränkesegmente gilt: Produkt und Verpackung sollten stets eine Einheit bilden, damit die Kommunikation mit dem Ver-braucher am Point of Sales stimmt. Gerade Getränkeverpackungen sind hochinnovativ. Die Verpack-

ung einer afrikanischen Biermarke beispielsweise soll Qualität, Inno-vation und Kreativität gleichzeitig vermitteln. Das Bier kommt nun in einer zu 100 Prozent recycelbaren Dosenflasche, die in Afrika das er-ste Gebinde dieser Art ist, auf den Markt. Mit Tradition und Innovation spielt beispielsweise auch ein Ko-rnbrand, der in Erinnerung an die Zeiten der Prohibition in Einmach-Gläsern angeboten wird.

Um innovative Verpackungen dreht es sich auch auf der Messe: Im BrauBeviale Forum laden – getra-gen von renommierten Branchenpartnern – Präsenta-tionen, Diskussionsrunden oder Vorträge zu den Themen Getränk-everpackungsdesign, Verpack-ungsinnovationen und PET Recy-cling zum Verweilen, Zuhören oder Mitreden ein. Gern gesehener

Gast ist auch 2014 wieder der international ausgeschriebene Deutsche Verpackungspreis. Die innovativsten Lösungen aus über 200 erwarteten Einreichungen für Etiketten, Verschlüsse und son-stige Packhilfsmittel, Displays, Verkaufs-, Promotion-, Transport- und Logistikverpackungen sowie bei Verpackungsmaschinen werden auf der BrauBeviale ausgezeich-net. Erstmalig stellt die Messe das PETnology-Konzept „connecting comPETence“ mit PETarena und Packaging Wall of Excellence vor. In dessen Rahmen präsentieren Un-ternehmen ihr facettenreiches PET-Angebots- und Leistungsspektrum. Die PETarena ist unter anderem auch Anlaufstelle für Verpackung-sentwickler. Den Auftakt bildet der internationale zweitägige PETnol-ogy-Kongress, der unmittelbar vor der Messe stattfindet.

C onceived to capitalise on unprecedented market demand for the region’s

manufacturing, processing, pack-aging and ingredients sectors, Gul-food Manufacturing 2014 – being held 9-11 November at Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC) – has officially sold out.Amid steady domestic and regional growth in the food manufacturing and processing industry, the sector-specific spin-off of Gulfood – the world’s largest annual food and hospitality trade platform – will de-but as the Middle East, Africa and South East Asia’s (MEASA) biggest-

ever trade show launch. With a host of global food manufacturers, suppliers and service providers re-questing exhibition space, organ-iser DWTC is adding new halls to cater for intense international de-mand.At present, more than 1,000 inter-national suppliers have committed to the specialist show, which is ex-pected to gather more than 10,000 regional and global trade visitors, as well another 1,500 delegates who will share the latest industry insights, market trends and state-of-the-art technology and product innovations in a cache of niche

shows, conferences and technical workshops.“The Middle East is rightly viewed as a key growth territory for the global food processing, packaging and manufacturing sectors,” said Trixie LohMirmand, Senior Vice-President, Events & Exhibitions Department, DWTC. “Gulfood Man-ufacturing will give international equipment, logistics and cold chain suppliers a tailored investment plat-form to gain an operational foothold in one of the world’s fastest growing markets.”“Internationally, the sector is seeing multi-billion dollar investments and

Gulfood Manufacturing will help facilitate and accelerate regional development. The fact the show is sold out five months ahead of its launch speaks volumes about how international suppliers, producers and manufacturers in various seg-mented industry sectors view the burgeoning regional market. We have listened to our customers and have committed to extending the debut show’s capacity.”Similarly to its Gulfood name-sake, the new show will feature a world-class line-up of international brands including IFFCO, Cargill Eu-rope BVBA, Markel Bakery Group, Multivac, TNA Packing Solutions, Ishida Europe Ltd., Döhler Middle East and CSM Deutschland GmbH. The industry heavyweights will par-ticipate in themed sectors or within more than 24 national pavilions including Egypt, Turkey, Jordan, Lebanon, Iran, Switzerland, Taiwan, China, Thailand, India, Italy, Austria, France, the USA, the UK and Germa-ny – also the show’s Official Country Partner.With Dubai already established as the world’s third-largest interna-tional re-export hub, the Dubai Stra-tegic Plan (DSP) 2015 outlines the government’s strategy to develop sectors earmarked as key contribu-tors to economic growth, such as transport and logistics.Best-in-class infrastructure and a modern distribution network have led Frost & Sullivan to predict the UAE’s logistics market will reach AED24.5 billion (USD9.4 billion) by the end of 2014, while the Inter-national Air Transport Association (IATA) forecasts nationwide growth and demand will confirm the UAE’s ascent to the world’s sixth largest international cargo handler in the next six months, moving an estimat-ed 2.75 million tonnes per year.With the logistics industry a funda-mental contributor to the country’s economic development, Food Lo-gistics Middle East - one of three

focused Gulfood Manufacturing sectors – will highlight key trends affecting the global sector, such as materials handling, transport and commercial vehicles, I.T. and tech-nology, warehousing and operators, facilitators and service providers. Elsewhere, with processed and packaged foods already account-ing for more than 50% of the GCC’s total food market, ProPack Middle East and Ingredients Middle East - two additional platforms at the show – will strengthen the UAE’s po-sition as the region’s driving force in both lucrative sectors.The events, which are designed to leverage local investment in procur-ing food processing and packaging machinery which surpassed AED1 billion in 2012, will cover essential

ingredients and raw materials such as meat, fish processing, dairy, bev-erage, bakery, sweets and snacks, as well as the entire value chain of packaging distributors and suppli-ers.In addition to the core exhibitions, Gulfood Manufacturing will host a Food Safety Conference highlight-ing issues related to regional food safety. A host of internationally-ac-claimed speakers and key industry figures will be confirmed in coming weeks. Gulfood Manufacturing is open between 10am-6pm from 9-10 November and 10am-5pm on 11 November 2014 at DWTC. Visitor attendance is free of charge.

EXHIBITIONS MEETINGS CONFERENCES

V om 23. bis 26. April 2014 präsentierten sich auf der 20. Modern Bakery Mos-

cow 212 Aussteller aus 22 Ländern. Mit 98 russischen und 114 interna-tionalen Ausstellern waren nahezu alle Branchengrößen vertreten. Erfreulich war auch die Zahl der Neuaussteller von insgesamt 45 Firmen.Bereits zum achten Mal in Folge gab es auf der Modern Bakery Moscow eine deutsche Gemein-schaftsbeteiligung. Auf Antrag des Verbands deutscher Maschinenan-lagenbauer (VDMA) und unter der Schirmherrschaft des Deutschen Bundesministeriums für Wirtschaft und Technologie präsentierten sich insgesamt 41 Aussteller.

Positive Resonanz erhielt ebenso der erste, auf der Modern Bakery Moscow stattfindende, amerika-nische Gemeinschaftsstand, der in Zusammenarbeit mit der BEMA (Bakery Equipment Manufacturers & Allieds) organisiert wurde. Der überwiegende Anteil der Aussteller zeigte sich bereits auf der Modern Bakery Moscow mit dem Verlauf der Messe, sowie der Besucherqualität und –anzahl sehr zufrieden und prognostizierte ein erfolgreiches Nachmessegeschäft. Über 15.000 Fachbesucher aus 43 Ländern informierten sich vier Tage lang über die neuesten Trends und Entwicklungen. Gegenüber dem Vor-jahr konnte die Fachbesucherzahl um mehr als 5 Prozent gesteigert

werden. Nahezu die Hälfte der reg-istrierten Besucher waren Inhaber, Gesch.ftsführer oder im Senior Management tätig und somit am Entscheidungsprozess maßgeblich beteiligt.27 Prozent aller Fachbesucher ka-men aus Industriebäckereien, 20 Prozent aus der Konditorei- und Sü.warenindustrie sowie 15 Prozent von Backmaschinenherstellern.Weitere Besuchergruppen waren aus dem Bereich Ingredienzen, aus kleineren Bäckereien, dem Groß- und Einzelhandel, dem HoReCa-Segment und der Verpackung- und Eiscremebranche.Überaus zufrieden waren die Fach-besucher mit der Produkt- und In-formationsvielfalt. Erwähnenswert ist auch, dass für 87 Prozent der Besucher die Messe höchste Sig-nifikanz besitzt. Die überwiegende Mehrheit gab an, die Modern Bak-ery Moscow auch im nächsten Jahr wieder zu besuchen. Dann wird die Messe vom 22. bis 24. April stat-tfinden.Eine äußerst positive Resonanz bei den Fachbesuchern erhielt auch das vielseitige Rahmenprogramm.Neu in diesem Jahr war u.a. die Plenarsitzung, in der namenhafte russische und internationale Ver-bandsvertreter und der Politik über die Zukunft und die Herausforder-

ungen der russischen Bäckerei- und Konditoreiindustrie referierten. Des Weiteren fanden Seminare zu den Themen ‚Die Bäckerei des 21. Jahrhunderts – Konzeptarbeit und Geschäftsentwicklung‘, sowie in Kooperation mit dem russischen Eisverband ein Workshop über die Produktion von Eiswaffeln und Eis-creme, zum ersten Mal statt. Hier informierten Referenten von Un-ternehmen wie Mec-3, CFT Haas, Stern Ingredients, Best Italy und Walterwerk Kiel.Strategische Sponsoren waren in diesem Jahr Diosna und Miwe, die einen eigenen Workshop über Ge-schäftsmodelle in der Bäckerei-branche unter den Titeln „Miwe Smart Engineering“ und „Indus-trielle Lösungsansätze für die klas-sische Teigverarbeitung“ durchfüh-rten.Saf-Neva / LeSaffre hielt ein Semi-nar über neue Formate in der rus-sischen Bäckereiindustrie unter dem Titel „Zukunftsversprechende Geschäftslösungen vom Rohmate-rial zum Verkauf“, ab. Hier wurden auch wichtige Themen wie Supply-Chain- Management, Marketing, Lo-gistik angesprochen, aber auch auf das Thema längereHaltbarkeit von Fertigprodukten eingegangen.Sehr positives Feedback von den Fachbesuchern erhielt auch wieder das Tiefkühlungs- und Kühlungs-seminar, welches bereits zum vi-erten Mal in Zusammenarbeit mit Hartmut Grahn (GfB) stattfand. Ref-erenten von Unternehmen wie Hein-en Freezing, JBT Foodtech, Koma, Lillnord, Miwe, Revent, Wachtel, Wiesheu und WP informierten über neueste Technologien in diesem stark wachsenden Segment.Ein weiteres Highlight der Jubiläu-msmesse war der zum ersten Mal stattfindende Moscow Confec-tionery Art Cup, unterstützt durch Robert Oppeneder (Patissier und Inhaber der Firma Sweet Art), dem Präsidenten des russischen Koch-verband, Herrn Victor Belyaev und

der russischen Patissière Elena Suchkova (Generaldirektorin der russischen Schokoladenschule). An drei Messetagen kämpften die Teilnehmer in den vier Kategorien, bestes Zuckerschaustück, bestes Schokoladenschaustück, bester Nachwuchskonditor und bester Konditor um den heiß begehrten ersten Platz.

Sehr gut angenommen wurde ebenfalls die Backshows des sch-weizerischen Kompetenzzentrums für Bäckerei, Konditorei und Confi-serie, Richemont. Täglich demon-strierten die Bäcker dem überaus interessierten Fachpublikum, wie man typische schweizerische Köstlichkeiten, wie Polentabrot, Bu-chweizenbrot, oder einen Hefezopf, bäckt.Die 21. Modern Bakery Mos-cow findet im nächsten Jahr vom 22. bis 24. April 2015 auf dem Zen-tralen Messegelände Expocentre in Moskau statt.

ÜBER MODERN BAKERY MOSCOWMit über 200 Ausstellern und über 15.000 Fachbesuchern ist die Mod-ern Bakery Moscow die wichtigste Informations- und Kontaktplattform für die russische Bäckerei- und Konditoreiindustrie. Sie deckt das komplette Spektrum der Branche ab: von Anlagen und Maschinen, Labor- und Messgeräten, Kälte- und Klimatechnik, Verpackungstechnik und –maschinen über Backzutaten, Fertigprodukte, Fast Food, Spei-seeis, Pasta und Pizza bis hin zu Café- und Ladenbau, Vertrieb und Verkauf sowie Prozessoptimierung. Zusätzlich gibt es jedes Jahr ein umfangreiches Rahmenprogramm, das aktuelle Entwicklungen des internationalen und Russischen Marktes aufgreift.

D ie IPACK-IMA 2015 soll ein großes Ereignis werden. Die Veranstaltung entwickelt

sich, verstärkt Beziehungen und Ef-fizienz für ihre 9 Business communi-ties, also die Absatzbereiche für die ausgestellten Technologien.Neben Grain Based Food – dem Schw-erpunkt der IPACK-IMA, des interna-tional wegweisenden Messeevents für Ausrüstungen zur Herstellung von Trockennudeln – sieht das Ausstel-lungspanorama des nächste Jahrs eine große Neuheit im Bereich der Frischprodukt-Verarbeitung und der entsprechenden Technologien vor.

Denn im Rahmen der IPACK-IMA sind diesmal drei Direktveranstaltungen geplant: die MEAT-TECH für die Fleis-chverarbeitung, die FRUITECH für die Gemüse- und Obstverarbeitung und die DAIRYTECH für die Milchverarbei-tung und Käseerzeugung.Damit wird sich in den Ausstellung-shallen einer der dynamischsten Sektoren in der Lebensmittelverar-beitung und im Großhandel umfas-send präsentieren, wo sich neue Konsumverhaltensmodelle abzeich-nen: „Frischprodukte” machen neue, spezielle Verpackungsmethoden mit neuen Technologien erforderlich, für

welche die IPACK-IMA der ideale Platz ist.Zusätzliches Potential erhält diese an sich schon hervorragende Gele-genheit, die sich mit der nächsten IP-ACK-IMA bietet, durch die Parallelver-anstaltungen Converflex, Grafitalia und Intralogistica Italia, wobei letztere in Zusammenarbeit mit der Deutsche Messe stattfindet. Es wird die größte, umfassendste Ausstellungsveranstal-tung der Welt für die Bereiche Verar-beitung, Packaging, Converting, Print-medien und Logistik werden!Die Konzentration dieser vier interna-tionalen und drei direkter Fachmes-sen ist ein Unikum hinsichtlich der Vollständigkeit des Messeangebots dieser untereinander verbundenen, die gesamte Lieferkette umfas-senden Sektoren, eine einzigartige Gelegenheit für die Besucher, denen mit nur einer einzigen Eintrittskarte die gesamte Palette der führenden Technologie-Unternehmen aus vier strategischen Bereichen mit syner-getischer Wirkung untereinander of-fen steht. Und parallel dazu bieten die Direktmessen der IPACK-IMA eine konzentrierte Ausschau auf Segmente mit großer wirtschaftlicher Expansion-skraft.Dieses detaillierte, umfassende Mes-seevent debütiert 2015 und soll dann nach derselben Messeformel alle drei Jahre wiederholt werden.Zu dieser an sich bereits außergewöhn-lichen Konstellation kommt nächstes Jahr hinzu, dass die EXPO 2015 zeit-gleich und in unmittelbarer Nachbar-schaft zum Messegelände stattfin-

det, unter dem Thema „Feeding the Planet - Energy for Life”, das perfekt synergetisch zu dem der IPACK-IMA ist. Mit nur einer Reise nach Mailand erhalten die Buyer die außerorden-tliche Gelegenheit zu einem Besuch von vier internationalen Messen und der Welt-EXPO mit 143 Länder- und Themenhallen.Die IPACK-IMA und ihre zeitgleich stat-tfindenden Messen belegen mit circa 2.500 Ausstellern und erwarteten 100.000 Besuchern das Gelände von Fieramilano praktisch komplett. Präsident der Veranstaltung, die tradi-tionsgemäß einen hochrangingen Ver-treter der Verbraucherwelt vorsieht, wird nach Alberto Bauli im Jahr 2009 und Paolo Barilla im Jahr 2012 nun Marco Pedroni, Vorsitzender der Coop Italia sein.Auch auf der nächsten Veranstaltung wird die hohe internationale Bedeu-tung der IPACK-IMA unterstrichen durch die Zusammenarbeit mit UNIDO (der Organisation für industrielle En-twicklung) und den FAO-Beratungss-tellen der Vereinten Nationen, in Form eines gemeinsamen Kongresses zu „Processing & Packaging Innovation for a Sustainable Development”, an dem sich auch die EXPO beteiligt. Der Kongress soll am 20. Mai 2015 zum Thema Nachhaltigkeit stattfinden, dem Leitmotiv der Begleitevents al-ler Veranstaltungen im Jahr 2015. Dies wird die dritte Veranstaltung der IPACK-IMA mit dieser hochrangi-gen Zusammenarbeit sein, die 2009 mit dem Kongress „More technology, safety & quality, less hunger” startete und sich 2012 mit dem internation-alen Symposium „Enhancing Food Safety and Food Security in African Countries. Packaging & Processing Technologies from the Farm’s Gate to the Consumer Table” fortsetzte.

Fliegender Start für die Meat-Tech Bereits 60% der Ausstellungsflächen gebuchtAlle wichtigen Marken vertretenMeat-Tech hat einen glänzenden Start hingelegt: Schon auf der ersten Ver-

anstaltung sind alle führenden Un-ternehmen des Bereichs mit dabei, in Bestätigung der letzten Konjunktur-daten der Ipack-Ima-Beobachtungss-telle zu diesem Wirtschaftssektor, die von Marktwachstum und-dynamik künden. Thema der neuen internationalen Veranstaltung der Ipack-Ima Spa sind die Technologien und Produkte für die Verarbeitung, Konservierung, das Packaging und den Vertrieb von Fleisch.Die Ausstellung findet vom 19. bis 23. Mai 2015 auf der Fieramilano statt, zeitgleich zu der großen IPACK-IMA, die eine große Neuheit für die Verarbeitung von „Frischprodukten” und den entsprechenden Technolo-gien präsentiert: denn die Meat-Tech entstand als Neben-Veranstaltung der IPACK-IMA, zusammen mit den beiden Direktmessen FRUITECH als Fachmesse für Obst- und Gemü-severarbeiter und DAIRYTECH als Technikmesse für die Milch- und Kä-seindustrie. In den Ausstellungshal-len wird einer der dynamischsten Sektoren in der Lebensmittelverar-beitung und im Großhandel umfas-send präsentiert sein, wo sich neue Konsumverhaltensmodelle abzeich-nen: Denn „Frischprodukte” machen neue, spezielle Verpackungsmethod-en mit neuen Technologien erforder-lich.Die Schirmherrschaft über die neue Direktmesse haben wichtige Organisationen übernommen: As-sica, der Verband der industriellen Fleisch- und Wurstverarbeiter – der die Meat-Tech 2015 als Referenzver-anstaltung für das technologische Up-Dating auserkoren hat - und Asso-foodtec, der Italienische Verband der Maschinen-, Anlagen und Ausrüs-tungshersteller für die Produktion, die Verarbeitung und Konservierung von Lebensmitteln.Jetzt schon sind mehr als 60% der verfügbaren Flächen von Ausstellern reserviert, unter denen keines der namhaften Branchenunternehmen fehlt. Eine wichtige Tatsache ist die erhebliche Anzahl von Ausstellern,

die sich für die Investition in große Stände entschieden hat, was das lebhafte wirtschaftliche Klima in diesem Sektor, das sich aus der jüng-sten Untersuchung der Ipack-Ima-Beobachtungsstelle ergab, bestätigt.Nach Angaben der Beobachtungss-telle zur Konjunktur hatte die Busi-ness Community Meat im zweiten Halbjahr 2013 für die italienis-chen Lieferanten von Maschinen, Waren und Dienstleistungen für die Produkte dieser Branche eine gute Konjunktur zu verzeichnen, sowohl bei der Umsatzentwicklung als auch bei den Exporten und der Beschäfti-gungslage, mit Daten, die über dem an sich schon guten Durchschnitt-sergebnis der Ipack-Ima-Stichprobe liegen, die insgesamt 9 Business Communities in den Sektoren Food und Non-Food analysiert. Günstig sind auch die Erwartungen für die erste Hälfte des Jahrs 2014, die, stets laut Beobachtungsstelle, von einer weiteren positiven Entwicklung gegenüber dem vorherigen Halbjahr ausgehen, mit guten Ergebnissen sowohl beim Umsatz als auch bei den Exporten.Die außerordentlichen Chancen, die die Meat-Tech bietet, werden zusät-zlich potenziert durch die zeitgleich stattfindenden Converflex, Grafitalia und Intralogistica Italia, letztere in Zusammenarbeit mit der Deutschen Messe. Es wird die größte, umfas-sendste Ausstellungsveranstaltung der Welt für die Bereiche Verarbei-tung, Packaging, Converting, Print-medien und Logistik werden. Ein weltweit einzigartiges Messeevent hinsichtlich Vielfalt und Vollständig-keit des Ausstellungsangebots von untereinander synergetischen Sek-toren, mit einem enormen Attrak-tivitätspotential für internationale Buyer, insgesamt 2.500 Ausstellern und über 100.000 erwarteten Be-suchern, das noch interessanter wird durch die Tatsache, dass zeitgleich dazu und in unmittelbarer Nachbar-schaft zum Messegelände die EXPO 2015 abgehalten wird.
