New success for Akomag

Recently the company delivered, installed and tested a new machine intended for washing recycled glass bottles. The machine for the PepsiCo group is a Hydra 8.2, characterised by a very high production: 37,500 bottles/h. The new model, the pride of mechanical Made in Italy, reaches a mechanical efficiency equal to 99.4%, successfully exceeding the standards required by the customer in the contractual phase. With this new provision, Akomag confirms itself once again as world leader in the construction of glass bottle washers. The bottle washer has been specially designed to minimise the environmental impact, with particular attention to water and steam consumptions, and to the duration of the detergent bath. The completely automated wash cycle includes an initial bottle-emptying station followed by a pre-wash spraying and first pre-soak bath that significantly reduces detergent bath pollution and markedly decreases consumption levels. In the pre-soak area the project also provides for the installation of a belt filter that allows to automatically remove the main impurities typical of recycled bottles (straws, paper, cigarette butts, for instance). The washing of bottles is completed with the internal and external high-pressure detergent wash sprays, using self-cleaning and selfcentring rotating nozzles.

Mains water for spray-rinsing

In designing Hydra 8.2, Akomag has focused on the final rinsing sprays using mains water. The expedients developed during the design stage have allowed to achieve extraordinary results. By installing a special valve with integrated flow meter on the mains pipe (controlled directly by the control panel), it is possible to detect the instantaneous and daily water consumption required for the proper washing of the bottles. With pride and satisfaction, Akomag technicians declare that thanks to the new design the new machine has a water consumption equal to 0.098 litres per bottle. A lower value than rigidly imposed in contractual phase by the customer. The supply is completed with many other

technological innovations, including sensors for slowing down or stopping the machine in case of missing or clogging of the bottles on the conveyor belts; synchronization systems of the bottle washer speed with that of the filling monobloc; control and introduction of detergent and additives in the washing bath and of sequestrants/ disinfectants in the spray tanks; self-cleaning filters in the tanks; automatic bottle loading and unloading, perfectly synchronized with the movement of the main chain.

Akomag is a flexible and dynamic company that bases its policy on customer satisfaction, the quality of its systems, its assistance services and technological innovation. Akomag has been working for several years in the bottling sector and thanks to the proven experience developed in this field, the company can guarantee to its customers maximum yields, user-friendly operation and minimum operational costs, as well as long working life of its machines built with top quality materials. From the province of Parma, Akomag aims to meet the needs of all those who are looking for high quality products.

pressure; their excellent performance is the result of a design and construction conceived to ensure maximum reliability and durability. They meet the requirements, even high ones, of medium and large plants and guarantee a considerable energy saving. Washing is a very important phase in any sector, in order to prepare all equipment and plants for the processes for which they are designed. Albrigi Tecnologie is specialized in the study and application of manual and automatic fixed washing plants completely programmable, managed by PLC, with

customizable software and self-testing systems of the process up to the complete sanitization and sterilization in every internal or external point, always respecting the environment and reducing pollution by 80%.

For Albrigi plants is used a special finishing called “High Clean Inside”. It is the result of a process that starts from a careful selection of top-quality raw materials, and from the subsequent processing of the sheet metal surface: welds perfectly pierced, subsequently pickled, passivated, flattened, scordoned, rolled, laminated then shaved and mirror polished.

In this way, during the washing processes, any type of obstacle is reduced and consequently is also limited the consumption of water, energy, and detergents.

www.dmclabeling.it info@dmc-online.it

The DMC company was founded in 2001 and for the first few years the main activity was represented by mechanical processing for third parties, then the Labelling division was created, dedicated to the design and construction of labelling machines for the food and beverage sectors.

All the machines are characterized by an innovative labelling system based on the use of the container rotating plate. This application guarantees the labeller considerable versatility of use and high precision in the finishing of the package, as well as a simple and economical format change. All models are highly customizable, thanks to the possibility of integrating several functional groups, even designed ad hoc, to meet specific packaging requests. Therefor not only reliable and performing machines but also machines built to fit customer’s needs: he can count on a real 360° technical consultancy service in the development of the project of his own customized machine. The products by DMC are innovative, by choice. In fact, several patents have been filed relating to the study and design of highperformance and cutting-edge labelling systems, relating to both bench labelling machines and automatic line equipment. Recently, solutions and strategies have been adopted within the workplace to aim at the efficient use of energy, the development of sustainable mobility and the reduction of consumption and waste, combining profit with environmental protection and growth of a green sensitivity in all the company staff. At the same time, a digital transformation process has started thanks to the adoption of solutions for document archiving and the introduction of new tools and procedures in the production department for the computerized management of orders and of the warehouse.

Today, the range of products by DMC includes innovative labelling machines with hourly production between 500 and 4000 bph and includes both bench models and semi-automatic and automatic line models. The flagship model among manual labelling machines is the ALPHA PRO, a bench machine suitable for the packaging of multiple types of containers, from cylindrical to conical, square and shaped, which guarantees high labelling precision and a quick and economical format change thanks to the use of the rotating plate system. This labelling machine is also designed for the application of a neck label or a small medal, allowing the packaging of the classic sparkling wine bottle to be carried out with manual bench equipment. Among the automatic models, the SONIC stands

out, an automatic 4000 bph labelling machine: it is a linear machine suitable for the packaging of cylindrical formats, which uses an innovative labelling system (patent pending) by means of opposing rollers which makes this model a valid alternative to traditional vacuum-type labelling machines. The range in 2022 has been enriched by a new labeller, the MHIRA model that will be presented at the SIMEI fair in Milan from 15 to 18 November 2022. This is the classic 1500 bph linear labeller for packaging the Bordeaux bottle, which however stands out for various technical features that make it a product that is certainly out of the standard. In fact, the machine uses the system of three labelling rollers but combines this module with a new unit for moving the capsule smoothing column, which allows to obtain an optimal finish, both with the rolling machine and with the thermal head, even at speed of 1500 bph. The screw feeder is universal and does not need to be replaced if multiple formats are used, furthermore the labelling stations are equipped as standard with an angular adjustment mechanism that allows you to work even with slightly conical formats. Among the accessory groups there is an optical system to search for the notch on the bottom of the bottles which guarantees the orientation of the package during the label application phase. The user interface has been completely redesigned: the operator has an 8-inch colour touch screen at his disposal, with which to set the labelling programs and carry out tests and manual cycles, all already set up for Industry 4.0. Last but not least, the footprint of the machine in its full-optional set-up, with dispenser, capsule smoothing, three labelling stations and final collection table is very small, allowing it to be installed even in small spaces.

MGM Motori Elettrici is the leader in brake motor technology, manufactured in Italy and consolidating its reputation and presence in the market for 75 years in Europe and in the world.

MGM Motori Elettrici’s facilities in Italy include the main production plant in Serravalle Pistoiese (Pistoia) and a warehouse with commercial offices in Assago (Milan). Further plants in Montreal (Canada), Detroit (USA), Chennai (India) and Izmir (Turkey) complete a global presence further enhanced by a network of distributors for sales and assistance in more than 75 countries.

The success of MGM AC brake motors is owed to the ingenuity of an innovative design created in MGM laboratories. With great ambition, three years ago the company set out to further upgrade its brake motors. The first step was to discuss and receive feedback from consultations with over 100 technical departments at its customer sites around the world with focus on the features and improvements they would like to find in their ideal brake motor. MGM Motori Elettrici’s goals were not only to meet the recommendations provided by its customers but also to extend the life cycle of its motors, to increase the average energy efficiency and to give priority to the use of recyclable material with low environmental impact. Since 2008, the average amount of energy MGM products need to operate has steadily decreased. In addition, by rethinking and redesigning materials and the production process the company has reduced the energy needed for the manufacture of its brake motors with a significant reduction of the greenhouse gas emissions. MGM Motori

Elettrici felt it appropriate to speed up this process.

All single-speed motors are available with the level of energy efficiency in accordance with the new European regulation that has entered into force since July 1st 2021, the brake coils are undergoing improvements in terms of reducing energy consumption and increasing performance. Motors with IEC frame sizes 100 and 112 were the first to be presented in the market with most of the planned upgrades. The dimensions compared to the current production will be reduced, the frame offers an optimal heat dissipation capacity and allows, thanks to two dedicated lifting eyes, greater ease of handling. The terminal board has been made more accessible, simplifying the connection

and reducing the installation time for the benefit of the end user. The rotors have larger active parts for the benefit of the motor efficiency with a low moment of inertia with important advantages for the motor in terms of dynamic performance and ability to make a high number of starts/stops per hour. The remainder of the motor frame sizes will receive the same improvements during this year. For MGM Motori Elettrici sustainable development and respect for the environment have always been very important goals. In the Serravalle Pistoiese plant almost 100% of the electricity consumed is produced by the photovoltaic panels placed on the roof, the air conditioning is supported by a geothermal system and the consumption of drinking water has been reduced.
