or the conveying of thin walled tubular sections, such as beverage cans around the production process, chain specialist iwis offers a range of pin oven and tube transport chains. Which offers outstanding cost benefits.
Developed specifically for conveying drinks cans, iwis pin oven chains are extremely wear-resistant and feature precision roller chains fitted with transport pins and replaceable protective pin heads (Fig. 1). They allow thin-walled hollow bodies to be transported safely and reliably at high speeds at ambient or elevated temperatures with exposure to various media throughout the production process. Pin oven chains are used in the beverages industry and
wherever cans or other thin-walled hollow bodies need to be conveyed, printed, painted or dried. The standard chain size is M128ASL (ANSI 60, 12A-1). Other versions, for example with a corrosion-resistant coating or maintenance-free chains (ML and ML-2) are also available on request. In the standard configura-
tion every seventh pin is hollow to accept the transport pins. The chains can be tailored to include other pin spacings depending on the nature of the conveyed goods. The length of the transport pins can also be adapted and ranges from 184 mm to 214 mm in length from the chain’s longitudinal axis to the head. (Fig. 2: Ex-

ample of a POChain-I, dimension L). Flexible and easy to maintain The transport pins that hold the product are fitted in hollow chain pins at defined intervals and secured with self-locking nuts (POChain-P) or an additional lug and split pins (POChain-S). On models POChain-P and POChain-S, transport rods can be individually replaced in-situ - for example if they are
worn or damaged - by simply releasing the nut or removing the split pin. The chain does not need to be separated or removed from the machine, which saves maintenance time and ensures that the chain outlasts its attachment parts. Versions POChain-P and POChainS of the split pin oven chains also feature predefined fracture points in the transport pins that prevent damage in the event of a collision.
Compelling price/performance ratio The latest addition to iwis’ range of pin oven chains, which will be launched in June 2015, is labelled POChain-I and features a cost-optimized design and an excellent price/performance ratio. All versions of the POChain have spring-loaded protective heads on the transport pins to protect the conveyed hollow objects (Fig. 3). These heads are made from a high-temperature resis-

CONTRINEX FOOD-GRADE INDUCTIVE SENSORS WITHSTAND HIGH-PRESSURE WASHDOWN CLEANING Food-grade washdown inductive sensors from Swiss manufacturer Contrinex are completely compatible with the strict hygiene standards of the dairy industry, helping maximize plant utilization during round-the-clock production of milk-based foodstuffs. Rated to IP68/IP69K, Contrinex stainless-steel washdown sensors withstand both aggressive cleaning chemicals and high-pressure water jets, offering highly robust solutions for the harshest operating environments. Food-grade sensors are available with IO-Link, a standardized serial connection protocol, providing digital communication in washdown areas at no additional cost.
C
leanliness is everything in foodprocessing facilities, and nowhere more so than in the dairy industry. A single instance of contamination during production can necessitate the destruction of multiple batches of milkbased foodstuffs - or, if undetected, result in illness, disease or death among consumers of infected products. It’s no surprise that for dairyplant operators, maintaining
the strictest possible hygiene standards is an absolute must. Given the simultaneous need to maximize plant utilization, time-consuming cleaning methods are highly undesirable. To avoid lengthy unproductive intervals between batches, food-processing facilities commonly utilize clean-in-place (CIP) and high-pressure washdown systems. Production equipment for washdown areas must therefore withstand both aggressive cleaning
chemicals and high-pressure water jets as a matter of course. This requirement extends to the sensors used throughout these areas. The Contrinex Washdown range of food-grade inductive sensors addresses these needs perfectly. Devices from both the Series 600 Classics and Series 700 Full Inox families are certified

to operate continuously and reliably in harsh conditions. Rated to IP68/IP69K, they are pressure-resistant up to 80 bar, corrosion-resistant and ideal for use in food and beverage industries. Sensing the presence and detecting the position of equipment or materials at each stage requires sensors that are both accurate and responsive. Contrinex Washdown inductive sensors are up to the task in all respects. With a choice of one-piece M12-, M18- or M30-diameter AISI 316L / V4A stainless steel bodies and sensing faces (Full Inox family) or M12-diameter AISI 316L/V4A stainlesssteel body and PPS (polyphenylene sulfide) FDA-approved sensing face (Classics family), these fully embeddable inductive sensors offer a highly robust solution for the harshest operating environment. Industry-standard PNP or NPN outputs with an integral M12 connector and IP69Krated cable set ensure compatibility with existing factory systems.
whether made from pasteurized or raw milk, undergo a number of common manufacturing operations during the early stages of production. Central to these are two aspects of process manufacture that require reliable, accurate flow-control systems: transportation and CIP. In each case, foodgrade washdown inductive sensors ensure that the correct operating sequence is followed. Process engineers use dedicated stainless-steel pipework to transport liquid ingredients from one operation to the next. Typically, fluid flow is managed using control valves fitted with electrical, hydraulic or pneumatic actuators. Depending on process requirements, two-way or multi-port valves, often rotary-shaft types, deliver raw milk from holding tanks to each process station in sequence,

maintaining specified flow rates and volumetric limits. Classics Washdown sensors for position sensing Sensing the position of a rotary-valve actuator is a routine task for Contrinex Classics Washdown inductive sensors. In this application, the PPS sensing faces are not required to withstand extremes of temperature or pressure, and the 2mm sensing distance of these M12-diameter devices is ideally suited to the application. These sensors interface directly with a range of industrial process controllers

and provide cost-effective confirmation of controlvalve status around the clock. Once processing of each batch is completed and all process vessels are drained, closed-loop CIP cleaning is initiated. In many instances, plant managers rely on flowtransfer panels to ensure separation of CIP and process flows; a flow-transfer panel utilizes a multi-port manifold that provides a physical break between flow streams in accordance with good manufacturing practices (GMPs).

is effected manually by means of U-shaped jumper pipes with positional feedback from inductive sensors mounted on the panel. Full Inox Washdown sensors for presence sensing Manual connection carries with it a greater risk of direct contact between assembled parts. Contrinex Full Inox Washdown sensors provide optimum resistance to mechanical shocks, while offering the option of extended sensing distances. Multiple M30-diameter devices, positioned at predetermined locations on each panel, sense the presence of a locating feature on each jumper pipe, confirming that the correct ports are interconnected before CIP cleaning is initiated. These units, with corrosion-resistant one-piece stainless-steel housings and a 20mm sensing distance, protect against impact damage and also withstand accidental contact with aggressive CIP cleaning solutions. Full Inox Washdown sensors for positional control The need for accurate position sensing doesn’t end there. Downstream processing in soft-cheese production is equally dependent on
Automation
highly reliable washdown inductive sensors for effective control of day-to-day operations. Curd-making is the fundamental process in cheese production. Typically, softcheese curd is made in large stainless-steel vats, where milk is mixed with a curdling agent and heated gently, resulting in the separation of curd from the whey. Automated knives cut the curd particles to the correct size, following which the vat is tipped to discharge firstly the whey, followed by the curd. Carefully controlled tipping is essential to prevent damage to the curd. The vat rotates slowly about a horizontally oriented support shaft. Washdown inductive sensors from the Full Inox family, mounted immediately adjacent to one side of the vat, detect the position of a cam on the shaft, confirming the degree of angular rotation at pre-set intervals. These M18diameter one-piece stainlesssteel devices, with a 10mm sensing distance, match the requirements perfectly.

In dairy-food production, processes run continuously, with remote diagnostics eliminating almost every need for manual intervention. Interrogating an IO-Link-enabled device returns its manufacturer ID and product ID, allowing systems integrators to determine remotely that the right sensor is in the correct location. Contrinex IO-Link washdown sensors additionally feature an on-demand self-test function that confirms error-free operation at all times.

Sealed tubs of cheese are conveyed from filling stations in single lanes; pneumatic cylinders, mounted beside each conveyor, divert multiple tubs into packing areas in preparation for layering. In these situations, it is essential to control the position of the ram accurately; failure to synchronize cylinder extension with conveyor movement results in damage to products and, potentially, to equipment. Two M12diameter washdown sensors from the Contrinex Full Inox family, embedded in the wall of each cylinder, sense the presence of the ram as it reaches the limits of its travel in each direction. These highly robust devices withstand pressures of up to 80 bar (1160 psi) and operate reliably and accurately while exposed to the working pressures inside the cylinder.

It’s any food producer’s nightmare: a customer who finds or is injured by a foreign body in his food. While such risks can be reduced through good quality management, only efficient devices that can detect foreign bodies and mislabeling can guarantee absolute safety.
T
here is no legislation in Italy governing the specific search for foreign bodies in food. There are, however, numerous standards that are virtually equivalent to laws owing to their widespread use in the food industry. The International Food Standard (IFS) is just one of them.
for example, in heavily marinated pieces of meat or products wrapped in aluminum foil, which tem to work, the device have a high intrinsic conmust first ‘learn’ each new ductivity. product.

This is the case, reliably.
Finding the culprits using a metal detector This is why a metal detector is now used in most businesses at the end of the process chain, just after packaging. It generates an electric field in its coil section. Any product passing through the detector leaves a specific pattern. Deviations indicate contamination and trigger the product’s rejection.

X-ray technology is superior in many areas X-ray technology is immune to such disadvantages. It can detect even the smallest of metal particles, as well as stones. The principle: the detector absorbs the radiation and produces a greyscale image. Any foreign bodies in the food appear as black spots on the digital image due to their higher density. Modern X-ray detectors such as Bizerba’s product inspection system XRE are able to evaluate an image within a matter of milliseconds. Here, the con-
veyor belt can run through the device at a speed of 80 meters per minute, which corresponds to an inspection rate of around 150 packages per minute. Another advantage is that unlike many other devices, the distance between packages can be as little as ten millimeters. This makes an extremely high throughput possible. The device also can be adjusted to individual requirements. For example, manufacturers can specifically exclude deliberately used metal parts like aluminum clips on sausage

ends from the inspection. The X-ray system can also check jars and tins with a wall thickness of up to three millimeters for foreign bodies. The metal of the tin hardly interferes with the X-ray beam. Food packaging of this type cannot be checked using a metal detector.

Eliminate labeling errors efficiently X-ray detectors are also able to analyze whether the contents of the packaging is complete. To do so, the machine is programmed with the average grey value of the object to be examined. Image processing then evaluates the results and at the same time checks the product for foreign bodies.The device finally forwards the inspection log to statistical software, which facilitates extensive analyses and precise documentation. In addition, the device can be combined with other equipment, such as a checkweigher. If the product is changed, the testing parameters on the X-ray unit also change accordingly.

PRESENT AND FUTURE OF OZONE IN THE WORLD OF BEVERAGES
hanks to the cooperation with important partners and research institutes, De Nora can provide a comprehensive range of ozonebased application solutions, branded De Nora NEXT, already extensively tested, for sanitization processes and other various treatments
that can be carried out in various sectors, as for example the beverages industry. Ozone, produced from oxygen (pure or in the air) by means of a piece of equipment called ozone generator, has a
very high oxidation level and leaves no residue since it acts on the compounds to be oxidized and then changes into gaseous oxygen. Considering its most popular applications, such as those being carried out in the mineral water and drinks industry, ozone lives today a

Ozone, pure strength.
All the goodness of drinks, without unpleasant surprises. Ozone is a gas with high oxidising power, active against bad odours, flavours and germs. It decomposes after use and leaves no residues. De Nora, with the line De Nora NEXT ozone systems, uses the properties of ozone to ensure higher quality of agro-food products, extend shelf life and, at the same time, ensure healthier products for the end consumers. De Nora assists the beverage industry in the design, supply and installation of ozone plants, used with increasing success for: • water bottling treatment • sanitisation of bottles or other containers • the treatment of process waters for washing raw food such as fruit and grapes • cleaning in place processes • wastewater treatment. In the oenological field De Nora NEXT ozone plants are used for the sanitisation of steel, resin and cement tanks and/or oak barrels and casks in a safe, effective and economical manner.

STEEL CABLE SUPPORT SYSTEMS EVOLVE Canalfil cable ducts feature fast assembly system and are much easier to manage than traditional systems
I
n Europe, in the last decade, steel cable supports have gradually changed from typical niche item to multifunctional support for power cables, data, safety, and for modular cable systems. Canalfil produces solutions for any design requirement, providing steel cable support systems of various size and quality material. Canalfil cable ducts have been designed and built in such a way as to grant sound support to suspended cables as set by laying and mounting guiding lines. By using thinner steels, the structure of the cable ducts has become lighter and lighter, thus getting such weight-load ratio as to grant excellent performance also in case of heavy duty. The performances of Canalfil cable ducts depend on payload, which is directly proportional to the rigidity of their structure. Canalfil grants high-quality standards, since the most important elements combining to make the structure of the cable duct are: thickness of steel bars, their
positioning, the quality of the seal at every intersection of longitudinal and lateral bars, which determine the rigidity of the duct. The high-quality seal of lateral cables guarantees high resistance. Canalfil proposes a complete range of cable supports, which not only consists of straight paths for housing and possible retaining, but it can also be integrated with an extensive range of accessories, purposely studied to always offer engineers the most efficient and inexpensive solution. Construction materials range from electrogalvanizeds steel to stainless steel 304 and 316,
decontaminated and pickled, depending on the environment where they are installed. Constant search for solutions that may help to reduce costs leads to growing use of systems that enable quick installation. Canalfil cable ducts feature fast assembly system and are much easier to manage than traditional systems for they are lighter than other duct systems, require less manpower during installation and take up less space, which result into saving higher than 25% on traditional cable ducts. www.canalfil.com

I sistemi portacavo in filo d’acciaio evolvono Le passerelle Canalfil hanno un sistema di assemblaggio veloce e sono più facili da gestire rispetto ai sistemi tradizionali
I
n Europa, negli ultimi 10 anni, la passerella portacavi in filo d’acciaio è gradualmente passata da un utilizzo tipico del mercato di nicchia a un utilizzo multifunzione come supporto dei cavi energia, dati, sicurezza oppure per sistemi di cablaggio modulare.
Canalfil produce soluzioni adatte a ogni esigenza progettuale, fornendo sistemi portacavi in filo di acciaio in diverse dimensioni strutturali e qualità di materiale. Le passerelle Canalfil sono progettate e costruite in modo da assicurare, durante l’uso ordinario, un sostegno affidabile ai cavi sostenuti seguendo le linee guida di posa e montaggio. Grazie all’utilizzo di acciai più sottili, la struttura delle passerelle è diventata gradualmente più leggera, ottenendo un rapporto tra peso e portata di carico che consente di ottenere prestazioni eccellenti anche per i carichi pesanti. Le prestazioni delle passerelle Canalfil sono legate alla capacità di carico, che è direttamente proporzionale alla rigidità della loro struttura. Canalfil garantisce standard qualitativi elevati, rilevando che gli elementi più importanti che costituiscono la struttura della passerella in filo sono lo spessore dei tondini d’acciaio, il loro posizionamento e la qualità della saldatura in corrispondenza di ogni intersezione tra i tondini longitudinali e quelli laterali, che determina la rigidità della passerella. L’ottima qualità della saldatura dei fili laterali garantisce inoltre un’elevata resistenza. Canalfil propone un sistema completo di passerelle portacavi a tratti rettilinei destinati al contenimento ed eventualmente all’ancoraggio dei cavi; inoltre, integra alla sua offerta un’ampia gamma di accessori, studiata per offrire sempre la soluzione più efficace ed economica a ogni progettista. I materiali costruttivi variano dall’acciaio elettrozincato all’inox
304 e 316 decontaminato e decapato, subordinati alle situazioni ambientali dove andranno installati. La continua ricerca di soluzioni che consentano di ridurre i costi porta a un crescente utilizzo di sistemi che permettono un’installazione veloce. Le passerelle Canalfil hanno un sistema di assemblaggio veloce e sono più facili da gestire rispetto ai sistemi tradizionali. Essendo inoltre più leggere rispetto ad altri sistemi di canalizzazione, richiedono minore mano d’opera in fase d’installazione e occupano meno spazio nel magazzino, con un risparmio superiore al 25% rispetto ai tradizionali prodotti portacavi.

he winery crushes, presses, ferments, bottles, and labels all of their wines, traditionally utilizing EPDM gaskets within these processes. However, they faced ongoing issues with seal reliability. This was occurring during various stages of the winemaking process, but was especially prevalent during the sterilization procedures between each batch, with subsequent leaks creating issues in production reliability, housekeeping, and potential contamination. Due to the rapid growth of the business new equipment had been installed, but at the same time the number of maintenance windows was reducing. Therefore the winery
was looking for a more reliable and sanitary component product to improve efficiency without compromising the integrity of the wine produced. As well as the need to remain absolutely compliant with industry standards and regulations, the winery also placed utmost impor-
tance on prevention of any adulteration of their wine. As well as working around limited windows of opportunity for production trials, the critical and expert

opinion of wine tasters was therefore essential to ensure full approval of any component change in the process. To find a solution for this two demanding improvement needs, several new gasket types were considered for production trials. Not only was the gasket performance a critical issue for the winery, but also all the documentation and certificates had to be compliant to all applicable standards. The decision was to implement GYLON® styles 3504 and 3545
materials for their active connections, since the compression and recovery characteristics would be ideal for low pressure sanitary connections and vessel seals. With this change of gaskets, the winery managed to extend the service life of the gaskets even through extended sterilization cycles. Additionally, by switching to a nonelastomeric product, shelf life is no longer a concern, which has allowed them to stock ample replace-

T
he first step to achieve this is to recognize the threats and demands of the industry. Food processing workplace is a very specific one - constant necessity of quality control, contact with sharp and dangerous tools, food parts and liquids is the everyday struggle of the people working in food processing environment. And yet, the last but not least component - time. Every producer strives to combine these elements in order to achieve the high quality product manufactured in the shortest period of time possible. Everyone who struggles with this challenges sooner or later realizes that the final score depends on every component of the process - it is highly important to use only the tools which were created especially for this kind of jobs. That’s what OHAUS company takes for its first priority - creating the tools that will help their customers become the leaders in their class. When asked about the company’s main foundations

Understanding the market’s needs is the most important part of creating the perfect product.
in creating new products, Zbigniew Pobocha, General Manager, says: “For more than 100 years OHAUS is trying to make people’s job easier. The first question that we ask ourselves while creating a new product is, who is going to use them. Then we gather information about those people line of work. Creating the scale for Food Processing Industry is one of the most difficult tasks. We have to think about every possible situation that can threaten our scales’ operability. But in the end it’s really satisfying to create something that will make Customers work faster and easier - their everyday job is tough enough and they should not have to worry about damaging their scale simply by spilling the liquid on it. I trust that after all the years we have finally succeeded - our Customers are highly satisfied with our new Valor 2000 and 4000 scales, created especially for food processing jobs.” OHAUS latest proposal for food industry jobs are Valor 2000 and 4000 Compact
Bench Scales, certified and highly resistant. Looking at their features it is clearly visible that they are the perfect tool for the food processing. The designers of the scales have considered the need of Valor’s 2000 and 4000 resistance to the sharp objects, commonly used in the food processing activities - the scales are equipped with polycarbonate knife proof keypad. It prevents damage from knifes, repealing stains, moisture, corrosive fluids and food contaminants. The scales’ Flow Thru Design protects the scales from fluids and condensation that may form inside the scale from constant temperature changes in typical food processing environments. The Valor 2000 and 4000 scales are NSF Certified and have OIML/EC Type Approval. All those combined features make the Valor Compact Scales safe, fast and highly durable. Designed especially to endure in the harsh food processing jobs, they are certainly the right tool for the toughest jobs. www.ohaus.com

he roots of MORRONE FOOD TECH (M.F.T. srl) date back to 1946 when Mr Giulio Raiola, Maurizio Morrone’s grandfather, started manufacturing foodprocessing machinery. During his first 40 years of activity, Giulio Raiola’s company establishes itself as leader manufacturer of processing equipment for the canning industry, namely tomato and peach processing. In the early 90’s Mr Raiola develops the first models of his peeler for apples, pears, citrus and kiwis, besides fruit cutters and other pieces of equipment that allow him to expand the company’s core business to the whole fruit-process-
ing industry, including the then-emerging sector of fresh-cut fruit products. In 2009, Maurizio Morrone takes over his
grandfather’s business and, besides developing the existing production range, he enhances research and designing

CHILLED NFC JUICES: THE BERTUZZI APPROACH
he market of fruit juice is developing quite rapidly and the share of NFC juices is considerably increasing because of their high quality. In Europe and the US (but also in whole world) 100% juice (not from concentrate) category is showing a strong growth potential. Of particular importance, in this sector, are the chilled juice, fruit juices that are prepared directly from the fresh fruit and then are just chilled and filled or slightly pasteurized and chilled in order to retain all organolectic characteristics. The majority of the chilled juice found in the shops shelfs is based on orange but other varieties like pineapple, grapefruit, carrots as well as blends (orange-carrot, orangepineapple, carrot-lemonpineapple etc.) are becoming more and more popular. 64

making-wine was understood. In 2015 the company from Chile purchased a MODULAR PLUS labelling machine with 1120 mm diameter equipped with servo motor guided plates from P. E. LABELLERS. The machine is equipped with cold glue labelling and self-adhesive units to adorn the standard size wine bottles. The labeller does not need to perform special applications for particular bottle sizes or labels; the specific feature of this machine is the automatic adjustment of the cold glue units as well as the adhesive units on two axes, as well as the adjustment of the carousel height. Finally it also has the preparation for a possible optical spotting technology integration. The maximum speed the machine can reach is 30,000 bph and that today makes it the fastest wine line in Latin America. The customer therefore appears to be one of the best references that P.E.
LABELLERS can use in dealing with the Latin American market which for P.E. LABELLERS is expanding. LVMH, better known as Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessy, is the global leader in the luxury wine and spirits sector with a widespread presence in over 140 countries. It has an unparalled portfolio of brands represented by the most famous and celebrated champagne in the world like Moët & Chandon, Veuve Clicquot, Ruinart, Dom Pérignon and Krug, together with Hennessy, the undisputed leader on the cognac market, as well as being an icon in terms of sophistication and luxury
BOTTLING
and some of the most renowned international luxury spirits, including Glenmorangie Single Malt Whisky, Ardbeg and Belvedere Vodka. The move of this prestigious group towards P.E. LABELLERS steams from the intention to buy 3 labelling machines for a 15,000 bph champagne line with integrated optical orientation, label application quality control and sleeve formats with self-adhesive labels, which has completely changed the cold glue system precedently used on the German machines in Veuve Clicquot. The solutions offered by P.E. LABELLERS

consist of the MODULAR PLUS series with B-BULL orientation cameras, and P.E.-supplied quality inspection system; it also installed parts manufactured in France and improved touch-screen performance and a Quality Control System, as they were developed with the customer’s operators, who provided their input on everyday practical operation. The result is that P.E. LABELLERS supplied a total of 3 machines to the Veuve Clicquot Group in Reims and 1 for the Möet et Chandon Group for their new cellar in Montaigu. The supplied labellers have helped increase the efficiency of the lines
of the factory in Reims. The long development and customisation process of the Quality Control System and touch-screen have led to easy customer control of the machines and have helped P.E. achieve integrated systems that are closer to operator needs. 2016 has already begun with new synergies between LVMH and PE. Indeed, we were pleased to receive another 3 job orders for the Modular Top machines with the cold-glue self-adhesive labelling systems combined with our Maya sleeves, for Hennessy’s plants in Cognac. The trust is a confirmation and full reward for the results PE achieved in

the LVMH group, which chose Italian-made manufacturing by P.E. LABELLERS to package its important luxury products. Farchioni olii S.p.A., one of Italy’s main producers of typical foods from Umbria – oil, wine and flour – chose an independent partner that was easy to interact with to provide self-adhesive or cold-glue labels for glass and PET formats in the olive oil sector. The solution adopted by the company was to implement a series of MODULAR FIX machines with a mechanical cam and MODULAR PLUS machines with an electronic cam, both fitted with adhesive and cold-glue label application units, depending on the production line they were installed on. The basic idea was to contain production costs as much as possible by offering machines made according to P.E. LABELLERS’ high standards. Given the great satisfaction of the Farchioni family following the solutions offered

by P.E. LABELLERS, there are now more than 7 labelling machines on the company’s olive oil production line, storing the valuable oil only in a covered place in their plants. Moreover, considering the differentiation of the product offer that Farchioni olii S.p.A. provides to its audience, P.E. LABELLERS also had the chance to supply a labelling machine for their craft beer line and one for packaging the wines from their winery. The distillates market continues to seek the cutting-edge technology of P.E. LABELLERS. In Slovakia, the ST. NICOLAUS company, the largest distillate group in the country, producer of Tri Borievky premium vodka, has entrusted the packaging of its premium products to P.E. LABELLERS, acquiring a MODULAR TOP 1420, for optical orientation with fixed cameras combined with plates with servomotor transmission. Label application will be a combination of self-
adhesive and cold glue, with fixed units set up in a peninsular layout and Mobile units positioned on trolleys. Completing the versatility of the machine is the Rotoxa module for dedicated U-shaped tax seal pressing on relative carousel at the machine outfeed. U-shaped tax seal application is guaranteed by a hot melt reinforcement that sets the application of the seals on the bottle neck. The solution chosen by ST. NICOLAUS will be installed at the facilities in Slovakia in February 2017 and will guarantee a production of 12,000 bph. Universal Robina Corporation (URC) is a Philippine multinational with an established market especially in South east Asia in the Food & Beverage industry. URC PHILIPPINES requested a solution to produce “new” water bottles for mass consumption, having specific needs: 1. Line speed of 50,000 bph - labelling machine speed of 55,000 bph

The solution that we proposed and installed is a ROLLMATIC with brushless motorised plate belt, reel-holders, also servo-driven, dedicated brushless HS glue roller and, obviously, automatic joiner. In addition, a special infeed solution with drivebreak curve, long feedscrew and additional starwheel has also been designed and implemented for the correct infeed of soft bottles into the machine. The low consistency of the bottles was a great preoccupation for the success of the project. However, with the right solutions described above, corrected and adapted during the FAT and the machine has been operating for over a year in three shifts with great customer satisfaction. www.pelabellers.com

ould you give us a brief overwiev on VLS Technologies? What I usually say to make people briefly understand who we are is that “VLS Technologies is the new technological partner for liquid processing… with a 30-years experience on it!” With that I mean that, from our perspective, it is possible to match both “innovation”/ “freshness” and experience and, at the end of the day, this is what we try to do; even if our expertise dates back to 1985, we try everyday to build innovative forms of partnership with our

I believe that now VLS represents the costant innovation in the sector; a Company that, regardHow have you evolved less of current economic conditions, made strong since 1985?

Lees-Stop is a product by VLS Technologies
Now you have one less problem The filtration of products with high content in solids has always been considered a problem. This is now a thing of the past! VLS Technologies presents Lees-Stop, a solution for cross flow filtration through sintered stainless steel membranes with high mechanical and chemical resistance. A cross flow solution together with sintered stainless steel, that lasts in time.

What is new with the “Lees Stop”? The lees Stop is an “ad hoc” solution meant for filtering products with hing content in solids that replaces the traditional polymeric membranes of the cross flow filters with sinterized stainless steel membranes. Sinterization is a thermal process to which stainless steel powders undergo. High temperatures “weld” these powders together by heating them below their melting point. Thanks to several tests, we have verifired that this kind of material perfectly fits the cross flow filtration of difficult to treat products leading to products on the outlet with concentration up to 95% V/V. What are the advantages of this solution? Sintered Stainless Steel has a structure that guarantees high mechanical and chemical resistance that translates to high resistance to pressure, thermal shocks, impacts and chemical washing with high PH. Therefore a solution that lasts over time. The Lees Stop also allows the filtration of a broad range of products, from lees to industrial waste: in

example, very good results have been achieved with producers of juices. If we take in consideration the knocking down of costs connected to disposal, the high quality of the filtrate, the full automation and the economical comeback from waste of the process, “Lees Stop” really represents the ultimate solution for who needs to filter efficiently and in innovative way products with and high content in solids.

Thanks to our filter it is possible to reach a perfect filtration of the product and shoot down the microbiological flora meanwhile saving the organoleptic characteristics or improving them sometimes.

Do you look only to the winemaking industry or to other sectors too? Absolutely to other sectors too. In example our PLUMA filter, another news introduced at SIMEI, is expressly meant for producers of fruit juices. Companies that need to filter their juices want to make sure of preserving their organoleptic characteristics by achieving an optimal filtration with a optimal microbiological shotdown. That is why VLS Technologies has created the PLUMA filter. Thanks to our microfiltration plant it is possible to reach an optimal filtration of the product and shoot down the microbiological flora. As for UNICO, the filtration media we use on the PLUMA filter can stand repeated regenerations with hot water and
detergents and thus achieve long lifespan. We have also introduced a new cooling plant for the cold stabilization of distillates and spirits. Quite always, after diluition, distillates like grappa, rum, brandy, cognac overgo cooling at temperatures inferior to 0°C depending on the alcoholic degree so to provoke the insolubility of oily substances that can affect the quality of the product and admit their asportation thanks to cold filtration. It is also guaranteed the subsistence of clearness at every condition and temperature to which the product is subjected during the cycle of distribution, storage and service. The VLS plant outstands for reliability, ease of use and cheapness of exercise. Reliability be-

cause it is based on a system of refrigeration thanks to steam compression already tested on several applications in the beverage industry; it uses a scraped self cleaning surface evaporator that assures continuous operation and costant perfomance. Ease of use because, once turned on, the plant can work for several days without needing an operator to be there; it is supplied with instrumentation and automation that constantly check the operating parameters and assure the values by automatically intervening should variations of the product on the inlet or lack of it call the need for it. Cheapness of exercise because, as already stated, the system can operate without the presence of the operator; for the low installed power required; mostly for the presence of a plate heat recovering system that can recover about the 75% of the requested calories by getting them from the product already filtered and stabilized that comes from the outlet of the filter that is in the system and that would anyway need to be warmed before bottling.
