he new measuring system LMS LA12 is a perfectly tuned, preassembled complete system for use in the field of marking and labelling. The new measuring system LMS LA12 is a perfectly tuned, preassembled complete system for use in the field of marking and labelling. The system, consiting of an incremental encoder from the WDGI series, a encoder holder with 25 N contact pressure and a nonslip measuring wheel, is used to continuously measure the speed in many different types of marking systems. The position of the product to be labelled is determined based on this measurement. As a last stage of the packaging process, the

TECNOPACK FP 2/15.indd 3

product labelling or marking system uses this exact positioning information to mark, among other things, cardboard, packaging, labels, bottles and other materials accurately and in a superior print quality. Codes of any kind, brand logos and graphic designs, batch and lot numbers and sell-by dates are applied using inkjet processes or special inks, for example.

The components of the measuring system are perfectly matched and guarantee utmost precision and a long service life: • With their IP65/67 protection, the encoders in the WDGI series are designed and adapted for use in harsh industrial environments.

• With a permissible radial load of 220 N

on the shaft, the measuring system can be mounted securely without slipping and has a high pretensioning force.

• The specially selected surfaces of the different Wachendorff measuring wheels guarantee non-slip properties in all areas of application - even at very high production speeds.

• The encoder holder is a special development with two slot holes for flexible mounting.

• Exceptionally high repeat accuracy combined with a very high resolution of the WDGI encoder of up to 25,000 PPR (0.008 mm/pulse) guarantees an accurate marking position. www.wachendorff-automation.com

No mineral oil in food

Efficient, sustainable protective barrier for packaging

No more mineral oil mixtures transferred into food from packaging: Sappi’s new papers with integrated mineral oil barrier bring new safety and capability to recycled packaging solutions for the food industry in a sustainable and efficient way. The two key benefits: Minimum 15-month mineral oil barrier protection and very good heat sealing capabilities so that food packaging does not require any additional coating seal.

A contribution by René Köhler, Group Manager for Flexible Packaging at Sappi Fine Paper Europe

P

ackaging protects the product it contains from dirt, contamination and destruction. However, there can be significant consequences when the packaging itself becomes a concern: The existence of poisonous mineral oil mixtures has been detected in various foods since the 1990s. Recycled packaging carton board was identified as the source of these mineral oil mixtures in food. Printing inks from recycled newspapers that contain solvents are the primary culprits due to the fact that poisonous hydrocarbons cannot be fully removed in the re-

SAPPI - FP 2-15 inglese.indd 3

cycling process. A residual amount, normally around ten percent, remains in the recycled material after processing.

The ink on the printed packaging can also contain mineral oil mixtures and can migrate into the food as well. Dry foods and foods containing fat are affected: Rice, noodles, chocolate products, muesli, potato dumplings and baby food.

The mineral oils predominantly migrate into food – even at room temperature – as volatile gases.

Most inner pouches currently used fail to offer adequate migration

protection. Safe solutions, such as those using complex laminates with aluminium and PET, are both expensive and not environmentally friendly.

The transfer of mineral oil into food is the result of two key properties of the food itself: First, the particular surface of the food onto which the mineral oil is absorbed; and secondly, the percentage of fat in the food into which mineral oils can easily be dissolved and absorbed.

These residues consist of a complex mixture of saturated (MOSH) and unsaturated hydrocarbons

(MOAH) suspected of being carcinogenic. Humans ingest the poisonous substances by consuming the food with high-risk consequences: In 2009 the Bundesinstitut fĂźr Risikobewertung (BfR; Federal Institute for Risk Assessment) determined that mineral oils can become concentrated in the human body with ingestion over time. Animal testing has shown that they are highly poisonous and can cause liver inflammation, heart damage and other diseases, including cancer. The conclusion of the BfR was that it is urgent that the transfer of mineral oils into food should be minimised.

Solutions expensive and a long way off Industry and researchers have long been looking for solutions to eliminate these unwanted risks. The entire printing sector is discussing how

Three questions to Kerstin Dietze, Marketing Manager for Sappi Speciality Papers, Sappi Fine Paper Europe What has the market’s response been to the idea of packaging papers with an integrated mineral oil barrier?

The interest in an efficient and sustainable mineral oil barrier solution is very high and is growing. The increasing interest is certainly also driven by the imminent introduction of legal requirements. Many product manufacturers are now focused on this issue and are looking for rapid solutions. For this reason, the response to our official product launch during Interpack 2014 was extremely positive. There were many enquiries from product manufacturers and processors about our innovative and recyclable barrier papers, with our efficient and easy-to-implement solution enjoying a great deal of interest.

Are there any specific projects yet, and how is the ongoing development of the mineral oil barrier papers progressing?

Currently there are multiple customer tests running on different packaging types for tea, cereals, chocolate and various dry foods. We are very optimistic that we will be able to present the first successfully implemented projects very soon. The development work will not come to an end following the successful market launch of the mineral oil barrier papers, however. The next stage is to expand the number of weights on offer for these barrier papers.

What further developments is Sappi currently working on?

Sappi is increasingly investing in the development of special papers. Thanks to expansion of the specialist centre for special papers in Alfeld, we will be able to present many additional innovations in the future. The Algro Nature and Leine Nature papers that can be composted at home, as well as the mineral oil barrier papers Algro Guard M and Leine Guard M are the first innovative results of these investments. In addition to this, our company is also running various development projects in the area of sustainable packaging solutions. A key focus is the integration of different functionalities into our papers. We will be announcing additional products and solutions very soon.

to migrate to inks free of mineral oil for the long term. Carton manufacturers are working on improved cleaning processes for recycled papers; and paper processors are voluntarily avoiding the use of inks containing mineral oil for packaging printing. However, none of these solutions can have the desired impact in the short term however, and even when they are achieved, the associated costs are very high. Functional barriers, either in the form of coated, painted or laminated folding cartons or impermeable inner pouches, is a potential solution that is currently available. The use and benefit of packaging materials with mineral oil barriers (abbreviated as MOB (Mineral Oil Barrier)) are currently an important topic of discussion in the packaging sector. Although some of these measures are currently being implemented by product manufacturers, there is a need to do more, and soon: Legal requirements for this are anticipated in Germany, in particular, where a legal bill is still being discussed. However, a recommendation for the use of barriers for inner pouches in food packaging has existed in Austria since 2012.

Sappi presents its solution To enable the continued use of recycled paper in packaging materi-

TechnologY

als, Sappi has developed a solution in partnership with BASF and Eurofins that brings innovative MOB papers into the market. The Sappi paper has a barrier coating which is applied during the production process in the form of a special dispersion agent. These new paper types for flexible packaging prevent the penetration of potentially harmful substances into food while allowing the ongoing, sustainable use of recycled cellulose in packaging materials, including outer packaging and transport packaging, ensuring improved food safety.

Sappi introduced MOB papers as a technology demonstration at Fachpack last year . Shortly afterwards, these papers were awarded the “PPI Award 2013 for Advances and Innovation.” At this year’s Interpack, MOB papers were introduced onto the market under the brand names Algro Guard M for outer packaging that require high print quality, and Leine Guard M for inner pouches and bags. These save, sustainable and cost-effective solutions have been generally available since Spring 2014.

Homogeneous, sealed surface One of the technical challenges in developing the MOB papers lay in achieving a homogeneous coating

to fully cover the pre-coated paper substrate. Even small defects in the coating can have a direct effect on the quality of the barrier function.

This means it is important to have an exceptionally smooth, non-porous raw paper with a full-coverage primer offering. Another challenge was finding a production window on the coater to permit a barrier coating to be applied to product without the rollers becoming blocked.

Together Sappi and BASF succeeded in developing coating solutions to address these challenges. It required the creation of a water-based polymer dispersion that could guarantee the necessary barrier while providing a stable and fault-free film using the predefined parameters without blockages. For this purpose, the film formation had to be aligned with the blocking response to achieve the optimal formulation.

Test confirms effectiveness To test the effectiveness of the barrier coating in preventing the penetration of poisonous mineral oils into food and other sensitive products, BASF turned to Eurofins Consumer Product Testing GmbH, an international bioanalytics service provider. This lab focuses on test-

ing and analysing foods, pharmaceutical products and environmental samples as well as consumer goods. Eurofins conducted a threemonth test cycle on behalf of BASF. These and other tests have definitively shown that papers with MOB barriers developed jointly by BASF and Sappi prevent mineral oil residues in recycled cardboard and recycled carton from migrating into food during the standard shelf life of the foods in question: The two new Sappi papers, Algro Guard M and Leine Guard M, have the necessary MOB functionality for a protective period of at least 15 months - in other words, far longer than the normal maximum shelf life of the products - as well as very good sealing capabilities. It is precisely the integrated MOB functionality and the excellent sealing capability of the papers that ensure that no additional processing steps or extra coatings are needed to meet these requirements. This

SAPPI - FP 2-15 inglese.indd 6

TechnologY

results in shorter value chains and more efficient overall production times.

Before these tests were conducted, the supervisory bodies in the food industry were of the opinion that the migration of mineral oils could only be safely prevented via functional barriers such as inner pouches. According to information from Eurofins, the material from BASF was the first directly applied coating able to demonstrate appropriate barrier properties.

Thanks to the surface properties of the new MOB papers, they are also very well suited for downstream processing to enhance the packaging according to brand owner requirements. These types of enhancements are not always required, however. For example, tests have shown that the MOB papers also offer excellent aroma protection. This is demonstrated, for example, by protection against

the loss of camphors (peppermint) and limonene in foods packaged using these papers. At the same time, the barrier paper also protects against environmental odours that could impair flavour penetrating the packaged food from the outside.

Conclusion: on the right path Both of these new Sappi paper types feature two key properties: Guaranteed mineral oil barrier protection for 15 months and excellent heat sealing capabilities. The market interest in this packaging solution is immense.

This confirms for Sappi that its approach in developing a packaging solution with mineral oil barrier was the correct one: The many benefits of paper and carton as packaging materials - renewable, environmentally friendly, recyclable, compostable and biodegradable - now include providing a mineral oil barrier for improved food safety.

rom processing to packaging technologies, from ingredients to food safety up to logistics and handling: Anuga FoodTec trade show, held in Cologne last 24-27 March, is much more than this.

On the occasion of this important rendezvous SMI showcased their innovations in the packaging sector, the latter having to keep up with new market trends with the aim of ensuring competitiveness, efficiency and flexibility with special consideration to energy savings and eco-sustainability.

SMI GROUP - FP 2-15.indd 3

These are the principles on which SMI most innovative studies are based and that came into effect in the realization of the new SK 500F shrinkwrapper of the ERGON series, showcased in world premiere at Anuga Foodtec.

Ergonomics, technology, robustness, modularity, etc. These are only some of the elements featuring the new ERGON series.

What presented in Cologne was just a preview of the new range of primary and secondary packaging machines

manufactured by SMI. By launching this new machine series, SMI is making a breakthrough in their history which has its starting point in the SK automatic packers, that is the product that has always distinguished itself for high performances, top-level reliability and operational flexibility.

A new style marked by ergonomics and technological innovation The new SK packer exhibited at Anuga FoodTec features a stainless-steel frame, that is the ideal solution for the

food sector being the stainless steel an acid-resistant material for products like tomatoes, milk, etc.

The new curved style of the sliding doors installed on the SK 500 F ERGON shrinkwrapper and the new “orobie� grey color immediately recall the high level of technology typical of the machines produced by SMI. The curved style enables to position every motor externally with respect to the mechanical groups they activate, which makes maintenance interventions easier for the line operator. Furthermore, the doors closing system is equipped with a decelerating device that slows down the move in the final phase of the closure to avoid sharp collisions that may cause damages.

The ergonomic frame of the new SK

ERGON enables the operator to easily manage all the activities related to both the use and the maintenance of the machinery, following the highest safety standards.

There’s no contact between the moving parts and the packed product, since the threaded bars on which the adjustment devices of guides and chains run are placed in a protected area preserving them from dirt and dust.

Moreover, SMI shrinkwrappers do not need geared motors, as they are activated by brushless motors (driven by digital servomotors) directly connected to the transmission shafts with the subsequent advantage of reducing energy waste, noise and maintenance.

The new ST ERGON shrink tunnel The innovative process involving the new SK ERGON did include also the primary element of the shrinkwrapper, that is the shrink tunnel. SMI shrink tunnels are state-of-the-art machinery enabling the reduction in energy consumption, the best environmental compatibility of processes and the qualitative enhancement of the packaged product.

Thanks to an accurate analysis of thermodynamic events generated by the shrinking process, SMI tunnels are capable of handling in an efficient and homogeneous way the distribution of hot air flows on the whole area of the pack.

In the new ST ERGON version the air adjustments have been further increased, making the heat flow direction more precise and thus enhancing the final quality of the pack.

In addition to this, packs undergo an immediate cooling process which, by means of a series of fans placed at regular 1-meter intervals in the oven, fixes their shape, look and rigidness to prevent deformations or damages during the following packaging steps. At the exit of the shrink tunnel a conveyor connects the oven belt to the conveyor belts; this connection is ventilated so as to enable the right thermic transition of the pack. On the final section of the oven belt some cleaning brushes in vetronite are installed so as to remove possible dirt from the conveyor belt.

SMI shrink tunnels are designed to ensure the operator an easy and totally safe access to the internal parts of the machinery during cleaning and maintenance operations which are extremely reduced if compared to traditional systems. Moreover, the new oven of the ST ERGON series is equipped with a small switchboard positioned in the lower part of the tunnel under the outlet conveyor belt, that is an area that the operator can reach easily in case of interventions.

In the end, a special measuring unit placed out of the tunnel ensures an immediate and detailed check of energy consumption.

facturer. The company is a world leader in food technology and developed various methods of food processing under vacuum, providing substantial improvements in product and process quality. The pump models made by Oerlikon Leybold Vacuum will be implemented in the freeze-drying system of a German supplier who produces twenty tons of instant coffee powder per day.

Modern vacuum pumps with their very compact design, high efficiency and the possibility to use an external frequency converter such as the RUVAC WH series match the requirements of the customer to an extremely high degree. These pumps can be integrated e.g. in current freeze drying

system leading to a considerable savings on energy cost. At the same time these pumps delivers a higher pumping speed which will give the customer a much needed upgrade in their production with in- creased flexibility.

Other food processing manufacturing processes also profit from the advantages of applying modern vacuum technology, as seen in the vacuum conditioning of industrial bread baking. Here, simple physical principles are applied. At atmospheric pressure, water boils at 100 째C. Decreasing the atmospher- ic pressure decreases the boiling point. If the pressure is at 42 mbar, the water already evaporates at 30 째C, the energy necessary for baking stems from the still

If the baked goods are subjected to vacuum cooling, this is done in 2 - 6 minutes, with the steady withdrawal of the water content preventing a possible condensation, the so-called gelatinization within the prod- uct. This vacuum-based baking technology offers significant advantages for plant manufacturers, produc- ers, bakers and consumers.

While customers can purchase perfectly baked products almost around the clock, manufacturing and distribution channels are saving money, as significant cost reductions are possible in logistics, plant foot-print and in streamlining work economics. Depending on the plant design, cost reductions may reach 50%.

FLEXIBILITY IN BULK ASEPTIC PACKAGING

T

he use of bulk aseptic packaging in the fruit processing industry is extremely popular. It can be used for puree, NFC juice, concentrates, particulates (dices, cells, pulp) etc and allows long shelf life and considerable decrease in the problems of disposal of traditional packaging methods.

Taking into consideration the considerable capital cost investment of an “aseptic bulk packaging line” including a sterilizer and a filler it is important that the choice of the characteristics of the equipment be carefully selected in order to match with present (and also future) applications.

Some of the points to be taken into consideration are:

FOR THE FILLER › Quantity to be packed › Type of aseptic bag/container and relevant size › Characteristics of the product and presence, if any, of fibers and particulates (in this case max size needed)

FOR THE STERILIZER › Quantity to be processed › Type of product to be sterilized and its (their) organolectic characteristics (viscosity, thermosensitivity, presence of fibers /particulates etc).

Similarly the filler can be chosen according to the criteria indicated above and can be of different models including: › 1 head filler, complete with aseptic tank › 2 heads filler › 1 / 2 heads filler for the filling of 1000 kg bags or 4 drums on a pallet

BERTUZZI FP 2-15.idml 3

The sterilizer is chosen on the basis of the above considerations and can be of different models, including: › Plate type (standard or widegap to allow the use with fiber) › Tube in tube (standard or for high pressures) › Multitubular › Scraped surface › Batch type for special applications (like fruit preparation for yoghurt)

All fillers can be equipped to fill small bags in box and con be equipped with aseptic heads for 1 or 2 inches depending upon the size of particulates that can be present in the product. Flexibility is also required for the sterilization method that is usually steam but complemented by disinfectant (Hydrogen peroxide solution) depending on pH of the product to be filled.

Bertuzzi Food Processing, a leading Italian Company operates since 1936 in the design and construction of machinery and plants for the processing of fruits and vegetables. Bertuzzi produces ALL types of sterilizers and all types of fillers indicated above and is therefore in the best position to suggest to the customer the system that better fits and its present and future needs.

LABELLING SYSTEMS FOR HIGH-PRODUCTION PACKAGING LINES

A

pplication of self-adhesive labels on high-production packaging lines requires adequate instruments and solutions. The experience developed

by LABELPACK in this field has enabled the creation of a new version of the now celebrated LABELX series, equipped with two highefficiency hybrid step motors and enhanced electronic management that applies labels up to a speed of 90m/min, with very high frequency.

LABELPACK FP 2-2015 annama.indd 3

LABELX RM is equipped with a 400 mm diameter reel holder and 250 mm motorised rewinder.

Electronic control is supplied from a separate control panel that can be installed in a remote position and equipped with a Touch Screen operator interface.

Besides this essential solution for high-speed application, LABELPACK has developed more high-production solutions equipped with a NON STOP function that does not stop

the production line when the label reel has finished and throughout the time required to replace the new reel of labels, thus ensuring high efficiency of the line.

This solution known as LABELX TWIN is equipped with two LABELX series labelling units, which are both installed on one structure, one of which is operating, whilst the second is on stand-by until the reel being processed reaches the minimum load.

This is when an exchange signal is activated, which is managed electronically and automatically puts the labelling unit on stand-by and stops the unit previously operating, without missing any product passing through the production line.

The operator can now easily intervene on the stopped machine, moving it away from the line thanks to

Once the new reel has been restored, the operator will reposition the labelling unit so that it is ready for the next change. LABELX TWIN

can be integrated with thermal transfer printing motors, enabling line printing of various data and bar codes using the NON STOP function, and is easily integrated into existing production lines.

Machines and systems for the packaging of food products

B

.S. s.r.l. manufactures and offers the food market the most varied types of machines and systems for food product packaging, including the new complete line for lasagna filling in trays of different sizes and materials with variable productivity of up to 3000 pcs/h and beyond.

The system with variable length and layout can be linear or rotary.

A pneumatically operated oblique tray denester picks up the containers, which will arrive at the chain via a chute.

Format changes will be managed by a touch-screen operator panel, which enables various configurations and recipes to be saved, the structure shall be fixed directly to the filling belt.

The tray transport belt is built entirely in stainless steel with a catenary and self-adjusting porter drive system according to size, and has the possibility of working step by step or continuously.

Parallel to this, the belt for the advancement of the pasta to be inserted into the trays is positioned and equipped with a rapid removable mat, even if the length is greater than 10 metres.

In accordance with the type of system and production requirements, a series of variable model and number dispensers are installed on the other side of the conveyor for mayonnaise, sauces, meat sauce, white sauce, etc. ... The dispensers are operated by alternatively operating lobe pumps, which ensure the homogeneous and uniform filling of the tray.

The fully automated line, which however still retains its reduced size and allows for speed and productivity to be increased, is innovative; in fact,

BS - FP 2-15.indd 3

the system can be realised for one or more rows.

Thanks to the automation, which occurs via a robot, the line can also be used for cannelloni and similar products.

Experience and research gained over the years has allowed us to develop and patent an innovative technology, which is undoubtedly one of the strengths of the BS company: the gripping heads for various compositions and sizes of pasta sheets. In addition to meeting the most diverse requirements, these specific components ensure reliability and improved precision features, characterised by durability, so much so that they do not require the use of spare parts.

In addition to the central operating panel which manages the entire production, each machine is equipped with a specific control panel through which it is possible to set all parameters and save recipes.

The use of the highest quality materials and components and the experience gained throughout years of busi-

ness in the food sector, allow the B.S. company to produce systems with guaranteed reliability, durability and precision (rapid size change, easy cleaning operations, safety, lowmaintenance, etc...) accompanied by a complete assistance service.

B.S. always takes the hygiene aspect into consideration, and for this reason, all the machines that it offers on the market are equipped with an innovative, efficient and complete, rapidsanitising system, so much so that without the use of keys, all the components in contact with the product can be removed; this method is perfectly appropriate for the automated line.

Lastly, news that interests B.S.: the collaboration with Storci S.p.A., which has led to the foundation of a company network, capable of providing the food market with efficient and complete systems for the production of ready-cooked pasta-based dishes, the Storci B.S. Network.

Fresh Thinking offers a reduction in food waste tion for all types of food products to ensure they arrive at the supermarket and finally the consumer’s home in perfect condtion.

LINPAC has always been in the forefront in developing new packaging solutions for their customers and so it was with the development of the LINfresh Atmo trays for Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) applications. EPS gives excellent protection and preservation 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 consumers alike.

L

INPAC Packaging manufacture a range of sophisticated solutions for fresh food products in the protein, bakery, convenience, foodservice and produce markets.

The LINPAC Innovation team continually develop packaging to address the food waste issue.

The LINPAC site in Verona manufactures a wide range of EPS (Expanded Polystyrene) packaging which has proved very popular throughout the Italian supply chain because of its merits in keeping food fresher for longer and providing excellent protec-

LINPAC - FP 2-15.indd 3

The LINfresh® Atmo 5 and 6 ranges were introduced for prepacked meat and fish and designed for top-seal MAP applications. The packs combine low carbon EPS with barrier technology which helps to extend the shelf life of food by up to 300% when compared with traditional non-MAP packaging methods. ‘’Indeed, our EPS LINfresh® Atmo trays for meat and fish have proved so successful in Italy that we recently installed new manufacturing capabilities at our Verona site to enable us to extend the range available to our Italian customers. ‘’comments Cristiano Madama, Sales Director at LIN-

PAC Packaging, Verona.

An added benefit of EPS is that fungi and bacteria cannot easily grow on the material because of its consutrction. Minimal bacteria growth means food will remain fresher for longer which benefits both retailers 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 transit, 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 combination, 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 carbon footprint on the market today, reducing manufacturers’ and retailers’ impact on the environment.’’

Adds Madama The tight economic situation in Italy will continue to drive demand for lighter and cheaper packaging solutions like EPS. Product

packaging 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 consumption used in its manufacture can be recovered through incineration. ‘’Quality, efficient packaging, like our LINfresh® Atmo trays, can significantly 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.’’ comments Cristiano.

manufacturers committed to lowering costs whilst maintaining product quality as rising and volatile raw material and energy costs continue to plague businesses. At the same time, consumer price sensitivity and the shift in consumer spending 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 generates savings in transport costs. Added to this is the raised awareness of the impact of packaging on the environment which means eco-friendly

Fresh Thinking Leads Innovation at 04/03/2015 12:15 LINPAC Packaging Alongside the extensive expertise in foam and rigid plastic packing, the Fresh Thinking Innovations team at LINPAC Packaging have vast experience in manufacturing both simple stretch films and complex multi-layer barrier films.

Since 1980 LINPAC Packaging has been a market leader in the manufacture of flexible films for the food industry across Europe.

The core strengths of the films business are considered to be its specialist expertise and a willingness to innovate and invest in new ways to add value for customers. One such case has been the co-operation between LINPAC

Packaging, Verona and Martini Alimentare. Martini Alimentare S.r.l. is one of the major meat producers in Italy. Producing more than 115,000 tonnes per annum, Martini is the major player in the production of pork, a significant processor in the poultry market and is also renowned as a quality supplier of rabbit meat. Orviero Monti, Research and Development Manager at Martini believes “In the retail sector, competition is keen and packaging should not hide the product but should emphasize its quality keeping its intrinsic freshness, flavour and fragrance and make it visually appealing to the consumer”.

As part of their on-going innovation programme, Martini recently launched a new high-end product range including porchetta a fette (sliced cooked pork, tagliata di pollo (thin sliced chicken) and kebab di pollo (chicken kebab), which will be of fered both under their own brand, as well as private label brands.

For this new range, Martini made the decision to look at new packag- ing and opted for transparent rigid plastic trays rather than the traditional EPS tray normally used in this market sector.

The reasoning behind this dramatic change was very simple as Sgr Monti explains. “We started from a very simple consideration - the amount of detailed information we must include on each pack, either as a label or as direct film printing, takes up more and more space. We are required to inform consumers about ingredients, nutritional values, food

09/06/15 18:23

Special

legislation, cooking suggestions, etc, which is only right, but product visibility is penalised. By using transparent trays, the product is visible not only from the top but also from the sides and from the bottom. As a result, we have given the consumer three dimensional visibility!”

This change in packaging format meant that Martini also needed to look for a new lidding film that would provide a suitable barrier to maintain shelf life, whilst at the same time enhancing product visibility. The chosen film was LINtop PP HB F 27 from LINPAC Packaging.

The main considerations in choosing this film included: The quality of LINtop PP HB to drive sales– The transparency and brilliance of the film, due to

TechnologY

its inclusion of anti-fog properties, ensure the visibility of the product on the supermarket shelf is outstanding.

LINtop PP HB cost effectiveness – High barrier properties ensure the product is safe and maintains its shelf life minimizing waste at a reasonable cost per pack.

LINtop PP HB F27 production efficiency – The film design minimises the number of reel changes in production offering lower downtime and higher outputs.

LINtop PP environmental performance - The lower gauge film (27 microns) also means a lower environmental impact (minor CONAI factor for recycling of packaging waste) and is in line with Martini’s ISO 14001:2004

certification for environmental management.

When asked about his experience of use LINtop PP HB Sgr. Mnti commented “To be honest, since using this new film I now sleep better at night which was not always the case in the past with other film suppliers!

“LINPAC responded to an urgent production need at Martini with a very flexible attitude and responded with promptness and helpful suggestions that can only bode well for our future relationship.

Service is the key for maintaining a durable relationship in the food industry and LINPAC have responded well to our needs. “We are already working together on a number of other projects which may see us using more of LINPAC Packaging’s materials, both rigid and flexible, in the future.”.

MOSH/MOAH migration and food safety

Companies who pack food in recycled paperboard are facing a new challenge: to make sure MOSH/MOAH mineral oil does not migrate from paperboard packaging into the packaged food

W

hat is MOSH/MOAH? MOSH (Mineral Oil Saturated Hydrocarbon), chain and ring-shaped.MOAH (Mineral Oil Aromatic Hydrocarbon), predominately alkylated polycyclic.

MOSH and MOAH are mineral oils commonly used in industrial inks, notably for printing newspapers. Since newspapers form a significant part of the paper/carton recycling stream, recycled paperboard often contains a mixture of MOSH and MOAH. A potential health hazard if ingested. Draft regulations exist concerning the migration of MOSH into foodstuffs. Although not yet directly regulated, MOAH typically contains components that are known to be carcinogens.

Recycled paperboard is used not just for the individual packs, but also for carton boxes used for distribution. MOSH/MOAH migration may thus remain a threat even when virgin paperboard and lowmigration inks, or even other types of non-barrier packaging are used.

EVAL - FP 2-15.indd 3

EVAL™ EVOH, barrier against more than just MOSH/MOAH One solution is EVAL™, the world’s leading EVOH barrier resin by Kuraray.

A layer of just 4 μm of EVAL™ provides proven protection against MOSH/ MOAH migration. Used as either an extremely thin coextruded coated layer on the paperboard or in an allplastic barrier liner, EVAL™ provides an oxygen gas barrier 10,000 times more effective than that of LDPE. EVAL™ is also an effective barrier against grease, organic substances and NIAS

(non-intentionally added substances) that may affect the packaged product at any moment of the production and distribution stream.

EVAL™’s barrier works in both directions: flavour, aroma and grease are locked inside, oxygen, odours, NIAS and MOSH/MOAH are kept out where they belong. Tiny amounts of additional material add barrier function to the entire package, allowing the safe use of recycled materials. Freshness and shelf life are extended while ensuring food safety, avoiding product and packaging waste.

Kuraray’s EVAL™ Technical Centre in Antwerp, Belgium can assist with packaging design, providing scientific compliance simulations for structures targeting MOSH/MOAH migration.

OCME DELIVERS A NEW COMPLETE EDIBLE OIL LINE

O

CME in various food and beverage industry sectors, including in edible oils over the past 60 years.

It is our worldwide reputation for such characteristics that has allowed OCME to recently be awarded many contract to supply a complete new filling around the world.

OCME has been choose because it has technologies that offer innovative packaging and filling systems.

These strategies have in turn allowed OCME to develop and supply different lines for the filling of oil and ghee.

The last important supply came from the request to introduce new PET containers to the Iranian market, being already very well-known and successful in the Saudi Arabian market .

OCME area sales manager Enrico Bernini, offers us further insight: “The main project characteristics, as well as the technical and financial credibility of the supplier, were to develop a turnkey solution, meaning finding a supplier capable of taking charge of the complete engineering of each process of the line, from the management of the empty containers to the palletising. The possibility of being able to guarantee the final productivity and efficiency of the new line stems from our extensive market and engineering experience within this sector. One team, one company that is able to better define the supply, by correctly sizing the machines that are part of the line, reaching the final line layout configuration, working closely with our selected 3rd party suppliers in time, all of which can provide a solution and a knowledge essential to ensure that the customer’s contractual expectations will be met, first on paper and then on-site.

OCME FP 2-15.indd 3

www.ocme.it

Ultimately one company becomes the single point of reference and assumes the overall responsibility for the project. This is what OCME has been capable to grant to its customers.

OCME supplied a fully automatic line for PET containers - 700 ml to 3 liters - where operator intervention and dependency is minimised. The rated speed of our LIBRA RN5 electronic weight filler is 15.000 bph.

One of the challenges posed by the specification, apart from the need to fill containers with a precision of less than 0.2 grams per liter, was that of having to automatically apply the handles to the empty ovalshaped containers, with all the complications that an empty container PET can pose. Particular focus was given towards container transport to avoid common problems associated with instability and by using vacuum

conveyors or with special inclined guides for upright bottles, minimising bottle contact to avoid any damage. In a market that is quickly and constantly evolving, our customers now expect more than just high performance. More and more OCME strive to increase the ecological and economic benefits of our machines through; energy savings, reduced consumption of raw materials, reduced machine footprints and reduced total cost of ownership (TCO).

This has always been OCME’s challenge, by innovating new systems for compact packaging lines such as our Blox™ or by developing new secondary packaging solutions like Packetto™ that can offer our customers huge benefits, together with OCME’s high quality and innovation spirit.

This is what all OCME Teams believe in and strive for daily.

Main products PIGO has specialized in building fluidised bed freezers, EASY Freeze, the most suitable for IQF freezing variety of fruits, vegetables and numerous sea, meat and cheese products, redefining IQF technology with adaptable air flow.

Our EASY Freeze technology is providing perfect shape of IQF product and no clumps - full controlled fluidisation method keeps the product constantly suspended above the belt in a cushion of air. The result is the immediate crust freezing and efficient core freezing of individual pieces, regardless of type, variety or condition of product.

Freezing efficiency is maximized for each unique product, whether the product is heavy, light, soft, sticky or fragile, thanks to variable speed control of all fans and belts, allowing on-the-fly optimization of air flow conditions. Interior video monitoring allows for real-time supervising of operating conditions, allowing the complete control and adjustments of the entire process from outside, without necessity to enter into the freezer. EASY Freeze is considered as

the freezer with the most superior sanitation, giving the possibility to freeze different products one after the other without risk of cross – contamination. EASY Freeze is energy saving and trouble free solution for all your freezing needs.

Within the freezing equipment product line, PIGO also manufactures the innovative EASY Freeze SPYRO, the latest generation of spiral freezers giving utmost advantages to the users in terms of energy efficiency, hygienic conditions and advanced technological characteristics, such as: › Belts gear motors are positioned outside the insulated cabin (no lubrication inside the freezer) avoiding any risks of contaminations due to some oil leakages; › The unit doesn’t have any mezzanine floor and or intermediary platform, to avoid any dirtiness accumulation (presence of any mezzanine floor or intermediary platform are making more difficult the cleaning operations) – the absolutely highest hygienic standards; › Freezer design is made according to max. thermal load and max. surface

occupied on the belt by the different products foreseen; › Low maintenance cost and low spare parts cost due to utilisation of high quality commercial components; › Low pressure fans to higher air speed. In order to obtain a quick freezing process EASY Freeze SPYRO is designed for high speed circulation (4 -10 m/sec) of cold air in contact with the product, on the whole length of the spiral conveyor; › Very low weight loss, which is two times less than with vertical air flow › Hitting the incoming product with the coldest air; the product is therefore immediately “crusted” and snow formation diminished.

PIGO freezers are built in modular sizes and all components are made entirely of stainless steel, capable to provide perfectly frozen product even for delicate products like cooked rice, raspberries, etc.

PIGO also designs, fabricates and assembles sophisticated pilot and production freeze dryers, EASY Freeze DRYER - LYOPHILIZER, product line which includes a broad range of standard and custom units.

The freeze drying - dehydration technology allows to save delicate aromas while drying the frozen product under vacuum, producing premium quality product. The machine is made entirely in stainless steel (chamber, doors, hinges, shelf modules, trays etc) with shelf modules and vapour condenser contained inside the chamber.

PIGO FP 2-15.indd 4

Viewing ports are provided in the doors, allowing observation of both the vapour condenser and product trays during the drying cycle.Each unit is equipped with complete refrigeration plant of corresponding size, including also refrigeration condensing unit which is purpose-built with capacity control to allow economical use of refrigerant.

Besides EASY Freeze, EASY Freeze SPYRO, and EASY Freeze DRYER – LYOPHILIZER, one of the company’s main machines is automatic Pitting machine PG103 having at least 50-100% higher capacity than any other pitting machine

fruit and vegetable processing systems

L

evati Food Tech was established in 1966 as a manufacturer of fruit and vegetable processing systems in the so-called Food Valley area, siege of the Italian food processing and preservation machinery industry. It was therefore an easy game for Levati Food Tech to specialize in creating solutions for sterilizing and pasteurizing packed vegetables and sauces (in any kind of food containers: cans, jars and glass jars) in pressurized cookers. This equipment can manage all the aspects that make a preserved food a safe and tasty product: different cooking times, various degrees of temperature, pressure variations, variety in food container shape. Market request to sterilize not only fruit and vegetables, but also meat lead Levati Food Tech to imagine a different machine that could meet this requirement. In 1974 Levati Food Tech launches its first rotary retort. This technology is ideal to guarantee higher heat penetration in food containers , temperature uniformity during all the phases of the sterilization cycle and maximal heat exchange.

In 1983 Levati Food Tech delivers its first fully automatic system of discontinuous retorts. At the same time research is carried out in Levati Food Tech to introduce important technical innovation in the branch of vegetable processing, manufacturing many lines for potato skinning and frying (chips, pellets, etc.) and for beans processing.

In the 1990’s and 2000’s Levati Food Tech applies IT to retorts for checking and registration of production cycles, temperature and by calculating (F0) sterilizing or

LEVATI - FP 2-15.indd 3

pasteurizing effects. Information technology also allows to simplify retort use and maintenance. Levati Food Tech sophisticated retort control software makes it extremely easy for an operator to use an autoclave guaranteeing at the same time homogenous temperature (+/- 0,5°C) in each area of the retort. In those same years a boom in food package material and form variety occurred (pouches, trays, doy-pack, thermoformed products) and it intertwined with a change in eating habits: modern life became frantic but at the same time very much interested in healthy and palatable food. On one hand we assisted to ready meals development, ready to eat and easy to preserve, thanks to sterilization they do not need any preservatives or cold chain. On the other hand we assisted to a request for natural products . As a consequence Levati Food Tech started producing machines for ready prepared salad and vegetable sterilization.

In 2011 LFT obtains a patent for its exclusive SRC system to be applied on PRIMA rotary retorts mod. SR 1450 and 1800 consisting of crossed water jet, automatic clogged nozzle check, big size filters, high flow rate centrifugal water pump. Combination of all these elements creates a perfect balance between centrifugal force, gravity and kinetic energy; further, uniform temperature distribution in each phase of the sterilization process is guaranteed by

the possibility to vary the angle of inclination of rotating and fixed nozzles or to keep them fixed on the same position. These characteristics result in maximum heat exchange and enhanced heat penetration in the product. Moreover, SRC system is characterized by a smaller foot print reducing sterilization time cycle by 20% in comparison with static retort sterilization time.In the last few years the expansion in packaging variety and the high turnover of flexible food containers used by our Customers has lead Levati Food Tech to study the most suitable solution to manage crate loading / unloading and tray stacking/unstacking with a single machine.

In order to meet the most demanding requirements in terms of package integrity, uniform heat temperature distribution and reduced cycle time, Levati Food Tech retorts (both static and rotary) are designed according to FDA standards, the American Control Board for food administration.

Levati Food Tech history demonstrates that this is a solution manufacturer: no matter what packaged food you need to sterilize, we have the solution!.

New fruit slicers by M.F.T.

M

orrone Food Tech, specialists in fruit and vegetable processing, have implemented their range of fruit slicers with a new version of their apple wedger-chunker and slicer.

M.F.T. is an Italian designer and manufacturer of fruit and vegetable processing equipment whose experience and know-how dates back to 1946. Besides being among the leaders in fruit peeling and cutting, in the last 15 years the staff of M.F.T. have widened their fields of expertise by gaining a large number of new customers across the whole fruit and vegetable processing industry, and throughout the world.

The result of this is a wide production range that includes complete lines for fruit and vegetable processing such as for fresh-cut fruit, fruit and vegetable preserves, jams and marmalades, candied fruit, dried fruit, canning lines for fruit and vegetables (tomatoes, peaches, pears, etc,), fruit juices, purees, frozen fruit, citrus essential oil extraction, limoncello.

Amongst the latest innovations, special attention is deserved by the new versions of completely automatic apple wedger-chunker and apple ring slicer. The new MW apple wedger and chunker is in fact a compact machine that allows coring apples

MFT - FP 2-15.indd 3

and cutting them into either segments (wedge slices) or chunks (also called cubes). The horizontal cut unit may be disabled, thus allowing to switch from wedge slices to chunks in a matter of seconds. Moreover the blades may be very easily replaced, thus allowing to quickly change the coring size, the number of segments and the dimension of the chunks, according to new production requirements. The changeover is really a matter of few minutes! The machine is extremely compact and it includes the tank, the elevator and the orienting system for complete automatic feeding and operation. The production capacity of the MW ranges from 300 to 900 kg/h, according to number of lanes.

Another worthwhile piece of equipment is the MW-R apple ring slicer.

This machine, which is designed for coring and slicing apples into rings, is particularly

suitable for the fruit drying industry requiring very thin ring slices for production of apple chips. Features of this model again include: complete automatic feeding and operation, compactness (feeding tank, elevator and automatic orienting system), quick changeover of cutting unit for rapidly switching slice thickness and last but not least the capacities ranging from 400 to 1200 kg/h.

equipment for refrigeration, storage and transportation of fresh and frozen food

F

or over 50 years, Zanotti Spa has been designing and manufacturing equipment for the refrigeration, storage and transportation of fresh and frozen 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 management 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 materials, of their processing, storage and distribution to supermarkets, specific shops or restaurants. The units designed for refrigerated transpor-

ZANOTTI FP 2-15.indd 3

tation complete the series and ensure foods are handled safely.

The products developed by Zanotti cover the needs of small to medium-sized cooling necessities, as well as the needs of logistic and storage centers: monoblocks, multicompressor 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 Courmayeur 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 stadium of Kazakistan. The works will

soon begin. The installation will be implemented with the latest freecooling 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 international 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 structures 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 contract, Zanotti recently won the tender for the supply of a similar installation; which should be implemented in the new airport of Muscat, in the Sultanates of Oman.

Other successes ensure the reliability 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 periods, up to 7 months.

Here, Zanotti has crushed the German competitors by presenting projects with advanced technologies that use intermediate non-toxic fluids 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 latest technologies; maximum energy savings with low operating costs, maximum reliability to reduce maintenance and to ensure the continuity of operations through centralized

management and with a supervision system.

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

The quality of the Zanotti products is the primary concern of the production 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 development to better meet customer demand 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 environmental aspects involved since the products are developed to provide low energy consumptions and reduced noise levels; as to meet the current technological trends that aim to contain greenhouse gas emissions.

This is how the BESTCOPÂŽ technology was created. It is applied on the motorized condensing units that are manufactured by Zanotti to improve the efficiency and energy consumption levels of the cooling equipment.

This basically can be translated into energy savings (from 15 to 20% depending on the different environmental conditions).

The technological research is at the base of the investments Zanotti allocates every year to better meet the needs of the customers’ requirements 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 implemented by Zanotti up to today and they also represent a promise for the future.

his year Technoblock is celebrating 20 years of activity in the manufacturing of refrigeration units for applications in the field of controlled temperature.

Starting with a small staff, the company can now count on a sales network located throughout the world.

The Technoblock brand is known everywhere and stands for the variety and flexibility of its products. It offers many solutions that are already available in the catalog as well as solutions which are tailored to fully meeting customer’s requirements.

Refrigeration is a process that occurs 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 refrigeration systems that are both efficient and reliable. This has lead Technoblock to produce a wide range of high quality refrigerating products that help installers and technicians working in the field to offer their customers the most correct solution as Cold Solutions. The various options for plants are defined as customized since they meet the customer’s expectations by giving extra benefits in terms of yields and energy savings.

Tecnoblock’s sales network is made

TECHNOBLOCK FP 4/14.indd 3

up of professionals. It can boast of a great deal of experience in the refrigeration industry and provides consultancies 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 especially a speedy and efficient aftersales service.

Technoblock products are assembled with high quality components by experienced workers. Particular attention 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 designed with a “view” to saving energy and reducing consumption following an environment-friendly philosophy.

“We have arrived at celebrating an important birthday”, says Claudio Lovato, Technoblock’s Commercial Director. “20 years mark a significant milestone for our company which has, in recent years, witnessed a radical change in the management as a result of the economic and financial crisis that hit the world economy.

With the new management, the company has achieved a more structured and industrial organization, with welldefined objectives and has made itself more competitive in the marketplace. “The refrigeration market”,

continued Lovato, “has seen many companies in trouble as a result of market restrictions. Access to credit has become increasingly more difficult and together with other factors has turned a consumer crisis into a financial crisis. Small-and-medium sized enterprises such as Technoblock were the first ones to be effected. 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 company to go forward”.

These 20 years have gained the company a place in the world of manufacturers of industrial refrigerators.

The strengthened and improved company 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 relaunch.

Dinnissen launches new hammer mill with semiautomatic screen changer Limited investment minimizes product loss and saves energy

D

innissen Process Technology specializes in the development and production of process technologies for the feed and petfood industries. Dinnissen offers a complete range of hammer mills for grinding, crushing, and micronized in various ingredients. During the Victam in Cologne, Dinnissen will be presenting its newest and latest Hamex Hammer Mill fitted with a semiautomatic screen changing

system. The new hammer mill allows users to benefit from increased speed, convenience, and energy saving when changing screens.

Preventing downtime and minimizing product loss Roughly a year and a half after introducing its new Hamex Hammer Mill fitted with an automatic screen changer, Dinnissen Process Technology is introducing its newest Hamex

Hammer Mill fitted with a semiautomatic screen changing system.

This latest model was developed to provide users who regularly switch from one product to another with increased speed, convenience, and energy savings. The semiautomatic screen changer allows the user to quickly change screens without stopping the grinding rotor. This minimizes downtime during the grinding process and maximizes production

capacity. In addition, as the grinding rotor and the motor no longer have to be repeatedly switched on and off, it also saves a great deal of energy. When using the Hamex Hammer Mill with semiautomatic screen changer, the screens are automatically removed from the hammer mill but, in contrast to the automatic screen changer, the operator manually removes the screens from the screen holder and manually inserts the new screens.

The semiautomatic screen changing system then automatically inserts the screen holder back into the hammer mill. As a result, the grinding step never needs to be the limiting factor in a production process. The investment needed for a semiautomatic screen changing system is also relatively limited.

in short

Extremely reliable, low-maintenance, and 20% increase in production capacity Like its predecessor, the newest Hamex Hammer Mill with semiautomatic screen changing system has a completely new design for housing the screen panels, grinding panels, and hammers inside the hammer mill. This results in a 20% higher production capacity at the same level of power consumption. The new Dinnissen hammer mill also has a very robust design and operates at a maximum speed of 1800 RPM, making it much less sensitive to vibrations and malfunctions. This is not only beneficial for the operator but also makes the new hammer mill extremely reliable in operation and very user-friendly in terms of maintenance.

In its newest hammer mill, Dinnissen has improved the inflow of ingredients by integrating rock traps and magnets into the design. This innovative feature prevents damage to the screens from iron particles or hard objects. In the new Hamex Hammer Mill, the screen holder is also fitted with an extra-wide screen opening that opens automatically, making it easier to carry out maintenance and/or replace worn-out screens and further minimizing downtime.

Finally, Dinnissen further improved the design of the screen holder, thereby eliminating the loss of product to other parts of the production process. The end result is that damage is prevented to the screen panels and waste is minimized. www.dinnissen.nl

Spectroscopy for Liquid Milk Analysis The seasonal and regional variation in the composition of raw milk makes a standardisation of raw milk necessary for all subsequent processing steps. FT-NIR spectroscopy analyses the key parameters, fat, protein, dry matter and lactose, with comparable accuracy to conventional mid-infrared systems (FT-IR).

Any kind of milk, e.g. raw milk, skimmed milk or UHT milk, can be analysed, as well as other liquid dairy products including cream, condensed milk, liquid ice cream, flavoured milk preparations and concentrates, even viscous products that conventional milk analysis instruments struggle to measure.

Moreover, solid and semi-solid sampled can be measured with the same FT-NIR spectrometer, e.g. raw milk & milk drinks cream & sour cream yogurt & desserts milk & whey powders lactose & whey protein concentrate hard & soft cheese A set of ready-to-use calibrations is available for a quick and efficient start with FT-NIR technology.

Company’s capability and vitality

SORDI has played a leading role in the industrialization of dairying, a position still held by continuous research and the application of high level technology.

D

ynamic management and foresight has permitted the company - founded over 130 years ago (1881) to perceive the need for improvement and, in many instances, to anticipate trends and policies with most advanced and reliable equipment.

The comprehensive range of equipment produced places SORDI among the world’s foremost manufacturers.

Main activities are in milk sterilization and pasteurization, cheesemaking, yoghurt lines, soy and vegetable milks/Tofu lines, fruit juices lines and CIP closed cycle chemical cleaning systems.

Both in development and production the unerring aim of SORDI has been

FP 2_15 - SORDI.indd 3

to preserve the nutritive value of the processed product and to maintain the organoleptic properties of typical products.

SORDI’s keen interest in advanced research is reflected in the high technological level of their fully automatic plants.

Automation permitted the rationalization and improvement of processes with consequent lowering of costs.

Research is carried out on the premises by specialized engineers and technologists, and close contacts is maintained with universities and organizations engaged in pure and applied research to verify the results and a continual updating on the

most recent technologies, automation and plant engineering.

In addition to providing know-how and advanced technology for dairy plants, SORDI is also and engineering firm which designs and builds partial or complete units ready for immediate use worldwide.

This activity calls for considerable responsibility and specific competence to undertake the complex technical and organizational tasks normally involved.

HEAT TREATMENT AND STERILIZATION OF LIQUID PRODUCTS SORDI was among one of the first companies in the world to offer the indirect heat exchange as a method

uality control requirements for food production and food processing are constantly increasing. Modern FT-NIR spectroscopy presents the industry with many possibilities for fast and simple quality control in the laboratory and can also be used to monitor the production line directly.

The new-generation analytical instruments are easy and intuitive to use and even enable shift workers to carry out analyses alongside production.

Fast analysis is beneficial at every stage in the production chain because errors made at one specific point often impact on the final pro-

BRUKER Anuga FT fp 2-15.indd 3

duct. With FT-NIR, manufacturers can: • analyse samples from tankers quickly, prior to unloading, and therefore reject any deliveries that do not meet specifications; • identify raw materials before use and quantify and assess their properties; • conduct on-line quality control at important production steps and prior to bottling; • check food is fit for human consumption.

The following examples demonstrate some of the possible uses of FTNIR spectroscopy technology in the food industry.

Analysis of milk and dairy products On account of seasonal and regional variation in the composition of raw milk, it is essential for all subsequent processing steps that the milk will be standardised. FT-NIR spectroscopy analyses the key parameters, fat, protein, dry matter and lactose, with accuracy comparable to that of conventional mid-infrared systems (FT-IR). Using the LSM (liquid sampling module) – a sample feed with optional homogenisation and automatic cleaning routines – samples are simply pumped into a temperature-controlled transmission-flow cell, where they are measured.

Any kind of milk, e.g. raw milk, skimmed milk or UHT milk, can be analysed, as well as other liquid dairy products including cream, condensed milk, liquid ice cream, flavoured milk products and concentrates, i.e. even viscous products that conventional milk analysis instruments struggle to measure.

Another advantage of FT-NIR spectroscopy is that one single piece of equipment can be used to measure not only liquid samples but solid and paste-like products too, including cheese, powdered milk and yogurt.

This allows for the cost-effective analysis of different quality parameters in all relevant products, ensuring quick quality control at the individual stages of production.

Quality control of frying oils Deep-fried foods, such as chips, fish products, doughnuts and crisps, have become a substantial part of our diets today. This calls for a quick and simple method for closely and continuously monitoring the degradation in quality of deep-frying oil and thereby detecting harmful byproducts that develop from oxidation and polymerisation in particular.

Various criteria are applied to determine when the oils need to be changed. For instance, the total polar materials (TPM) and polymerised triacylglycerol (PTG) levels are defined using gel permeation chromatography (GPC). Regulations in many EU countries state that a deepfrying oil should contain below 24-27 % TPM, and 16 % PTG. However, no single parameter can be considered conclusive. A variety of tests should always be consulted to measure the by-products resulting from both oxidative and thermal processes in the oil before a valid conclusion can be drawn. Using FT-NIR spectroscopy, these parameters, as well as other important readings such as acid value and Anisidine value, can be established from one single measu-

FT-NIR was included in the DGF standard methods (DGF C-VI 21a) last year as a screening method for the analysis of deep-frying oils.

Many other important quality parameters for fresh, unused deep-frying oils and other cooking oils, such as olive oil, can be analysed using FTNIR. Besides the iodine value, the

trans-fatty acid content and the acid value, the various fatty acids can be quickly identified too.

liver the quality that customers expect. FT-NIR technology, which can produce analysis results in less than a minute, has the capability to complete, or even replace, a wide range of conventional quality assurance testing procedures for meat and meat products, both in the laboratory and on the production line.

For example, it is very important for sausage manufacturers to determine the often variable fat content in their meat supplies when planning subsequent production steps.

Furthermore, the fat content is a common criterion for value-based payment to suppliers. In this respect, FT-NIR spectroscopy represents a valuable tool for assessing the raw materials going into the product. The parameters of fat, protein and water can be determined simultaneously using just one measurement. The results can be used as a basis for decisions about production procedures.

In sausage production, there is a legal requirement to define the maximum water content, minimum pro-

CHEESE

tein content and total fat content.

The salt level is also of particular interest to the manufacturer and consumers as well. FT-NIR has proven itself to be an efficient method of analysis for measuring levels of moisture, fat, protein and salt in the different sausage varieties. Additionally, water activity (aw-value) can be analysed to optimise the product’s shelf life.

and even over conveyor belts. Up to six sensors can be multiplexed by a single MATRIX-F FT-NIR spectrometer. One example is the monitoring of the milk powder process. The key points in the spray drying process can be monitored by installing sensors e.g. in the storage tanks, the inline feed of the spray dryer as well as at the powder outlet of the fluid bed dryer.

Why FT-NIR?

FT-NIR spectroscopy is however not restricted to the laboratory. There is a strong trend to take spectroscopy on the line rather than taking the sample to the lab. Not only quality and safety issues, but also economic considerations motivate the producers to develop methods for the real time process analysis. Online measurements are suitable for solid and liquid samples alike. There are different contact and non-contact sensors available which can be implemented into pipes, bypasses

FT-NIR spectroscopy is a high-performance method of analysis that is increasingly being used in the food industry. With its simple operation, it has the potential to replace a wide range of conventional analysis methods and to serve as a rapid method that dramatically increases the number of samples that can be measured.

Consequently, the quality of the raw materials, production processes and end products can be controlled and monitored more closely.

The award winning MATRIX-F FT-NIR spectrometer allows the direct measurement in pipes, bypasses and even over conveyor belts leading to a better understanding and control of the process.

Steel Belts Are Top of the Milk for Tetra Pak

Tetra Pak has recently launched the Tetra Evero Aseptic onelitre - the first aseptic carton bottle for milk.

T

he new carton combines the easy handling and pouring of a bottle with the environmental and cost advantages of a carton.

It is initially being aimed at the ambient white milk market, including nonoxygen sensitive enriched products, as well as flavoured milk and cream.

Unlike traditional carton materials, which are aseptically sterilised before they are formed into shape, the Tetro Evero Aseptic is pre-formed and not flat-packed, meaning it requires an alternative approach.

The majority of existing technologies for sterilising performed shapes rely on a gas-condensation process. This process involves the gas condensing on the material surface, but this is known to be complex and difficult to control.

The Tetra Evero Aseptic, however, uses a new gas-phase sterilisation technique which involves the cartons passing through a unique aseptic chamber in pairs where they are exposed to hydrogen peroxide.

The gas comes into contact with the whole preformed package - inside

and out, removing any contaminants that might have been present before entering the aseptic chamber. The cartons travel on steel belts during this production process. The use of steel belts is a highly hygienic alternative to using traditional plastic and PU conveyor systems.

Avoiding the spread of contaminants is imperative in belt technology: steel belts are far easier to clean than their plastic counterparts and do not need to be lubricated in order to transmit power. This is important because germs and potentially harmful bacteria are attracted to dust generated by lubricant grease, which can potentially contaminate food or oth-

Together, the steel belt technology and the new gas-phase sterilisation technique used in the production of the new Tetra Evero Aseptic have resulted in a highly effective means of commercial sterility - an innovative development which should now set the gold standard for the production of aseptic packaging across Europe and the rest of the world.

It also offers the possibility to choose among multiple recipes for different type of products and cuts and between automatic and fixed weight programs. Caseartecnica Bartoli srl develops

CASEARTECNICA BARTOLI FP 2-15-corr.indd 3

fully automatic and automatic solutions as well as semi-automatic and semi-manual machineries.

The Rock 18 model, for example, is a semi-manual cutting machine for counters, realized to be placed on any kind of counters to cut a small and medium quantity of cheese without any effort. It allows to cut portions of the desired weight and it is particularly suitable to realize small slices of cheese (ex. 300 gr).

The Rock 23 model, on the other end, has been conceived to cut automatically big quantity of product into pieces with a pre-set and calibrated weight. Provided with a fully automatic operation cycle it can be programmed for cuts at fixed weight or fixed number.

The semi-automatic portioning machine, Rock 20 is an alternative solution for those packers that, on the one hand, don’t need to cut big quantities of cheese in a short time but, on the other hand,

sell their products in such a quantity that the manual operation would be uncomfortable or too tiring. Very simple to use and manage, the only action required to the operator is to press simultaneously two buttons to activate the blade and start cutting. In addition, Caseartecnica Bartoli srl produces horizontal sectioning machines for the division of the cheese in disks and the preparation for particular type of cuts and package.

The automatic cutter Rock 21 is a machine that can automatically subdivide the wheel of cheese into a variable number of disks with a fixed or variable height.

This allows to proceed to the automatic cutting into slices with a very low weight.

It perfectly matches with the Rock 23 and other Caseartecnica’s models. All the machines,in fact, can interact to create an automatic or semi-automatic integrated system, suitable for different types of producers, packaging companies or stores.

The Electric sectioning table Rock 16 is ideal to cut semi-manually the cheese into horizontal sections to prepare it for the division in pieces. Characterized by a medium size, it is suitable for food outlets that need to sell small slices of cheese.

The horizontal ‘rock’ sectioning table Rock 13 allows to cut horizontally the cheese into two equal “rock” pieces.

Specially designed for hard cheeses that require a type of cutting similar to Parmesan, it perfectly matches with any other Caseartecnica’s portioning machines that cut cheeses in slices. Caseartecnica Bartoli srl produces other solutions for the cheese market like automatic graters for big restaurant chains, supermarkets and hypermarkets and machines that clean the crust of the cheese in case that it is too dirty for the retail. Automatic solutions that help preparing the cheese to be grated or packed. In addition to the main production the company continues to distribute the historical products which made its fortune during the time.

Equipment for the production of cheese and the milk processing.

Helical and wheel Agitators that work with a great delicacy at any speed, from the milk cooking to the double bottom cleaning. The Caseartecnica Bartoli’s agitators have been conceived for a precise and delicate milk processing thanks to their electronic or mechanical speed regulations, their special curd cutters that gradually cut the curd such as the manual operation, and a specific device for the cleaning. They are safe and lasting thanks to their stainless steel components equipped with total protections and security devices or with plastic cover and emergency blockage. Resistant over the years, the Caseartecnica’s Bartoli’s agitators are still an example of efficiency and accuracy. Caseartecnica Bartoli srl offers to dairy industries other products that ensure a perfect management of the cheese processing like its whey dosage Pump that allows to distribute into the containers the perfect quantity of whey with total precision and gradualness and the Whey extractor 8Q Universal, suitable for sucking the whey and other residual liquids out of the double bottoms and any other container. In addition to the industrial production and the cutting of cheese, Caseartecnica Bartoli realises machines for medium

ARCK Spa manufactures plants for the food and beverage industry with a particular attention to the storage, heating/cooling, pasteurizing and concentration of the fruit juice and milk/whey. FARCK concentration plants can be used with excellent results both for pure and rectified musts and for fruit juices and can be coupled with all desulphurization columns with a very high energy saving. FARCK uses the principle of the Vapour Thermal Recompression and manufactures plants with reduced consumptions (less than 1 Kg. of steam to evaporate 10 Kg. of water). The circulation of the product is “falling film”, with vertical pipe bundle exchangers, condensate separation with elimination of non-polluting liquids and cleaning of the plant by means of forced circulation in short time. The capacity of the evaporators varies from 1.000 or 2.000 lt. of evaporated water to 50.000 lt/h of evaporated water (big plants with 3-6 effects). An important characteristic of FARCK evaporators is the centralization of all controls into a control synoptic board that allows the driving of the plant by one operator alone. All FARCK evaporation plants are realised in monobloc in order to be transported and installed in short time. Thanks to many years of experience in this sector FARCK Spa can design and manufacture plants with very low consumptions thus respecting the environment. FARCK Spa manufactures also plate exchangers, heaters coolers and pasteurizers for food liquids. Our technical office is able to calculate the exact number of plates and sections necessary to guarantee the best energy saving by respecting the product to treat; the plate exchangers are completely manufactured with AISI 304 and 316 stainless steel and have a capacity from 500 to 40.000 lt/hour, with one or

COMPLETE, TURNKEY AND TAILOR-MADE SOLUTIONS FOR DAIRY BUSINESS ICF & Welko grants quality, production efficiency and energy saving in full compliance with the strictest international standards

M

ilk is broadly acknowledged 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 cardinal 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 microorganism, pathogenic and not, and even when it undergoes thermal treatment, 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 transported are relevant and transport itself may be expensive in economical and environmental terms. It follows 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 extend the shelf-life of the product, while from the other hand it reduces 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 problems connected to the consumption of fresh milk remain.

ICF WELKO FP 1-15.indd 3

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

Increasing demand of special prod-

ucts (infant food, nutraceuticals, functional food) with special characteristics generates new challenges 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, safety and environmental standards.

Owing to its background as an engineering company, ICF & Welko designs and builds tailor-made plants, offers utmost process flexibility, making use of all automation levels. It also provides technical, technological and engineering support by interacting with all the players of the dairy business, from wellknown multinationals to small firms committed to competing in the market thanks to a winning idea or firstclass product.

Making use of its widespread assistance 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 production capacity, improve quality, diversify their investments by extending their product range.

“Mitsubishi Electric’s servos provided plug and play simplicity” Matt Hurley

Library image for iLLustrative purposes onLy

Western Mechanical Handling UK Ltd., Machine builder to the Food & Beverage industry

Rely on automation solutions from Mitsubishi Electric In a drive to reduce packaging and its resultant waste, a specialist machine builder developed a pressureless queuing conveyor for collecting quiches prior to baking.

The success of this project demanded that difficult to handle uncooked quiches could be moved quickly through the production process without collapsing.

The solution was to develop an in-line servo-controlled collating conveyor and intelligent sensing system using Mitsubishi Electric’s simple plug and play servo drive systems with advanced vibration suppression and real-time auto tuning.

The result was perfect quiches time and time again.
