komag’s new success Recently, Akomag has 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 very high production: 37,500 bottle/h. The new model, the pride of mechanical Made in Italy, reaches 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,
10
BEVERAGE INDUSTRY
cigarette butts, for instance). The washing of bottles is completed with the internal and external high-pressure detergent wash sprays, using self-cleaning and self-centring rotating nozzles. Mains water for spray-rinsing In designing Hydra 8.2, Akomag 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 say 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.

lbrigi Vera: A story made of passion, work, respect The story of Stefano Albrigi and his company begins long ago, in 1954, when Stefano’s father starts his own business. Stefano grows up in an environment where the sense of entrepreneurship is strong, combining the observation of the day-today work in a mechanical workshop with a personal passion for technology to apply to cellars and wine. A passion that leads him, still in his youth, to spend much of his free time studying the work of oenologists and cellarmen, trying to understand those secrets that make Valpolicella one of the areas with the greatest wine vocation nationally. After some professional experiences in other companies, Stefano returns to his father’s company, bringing a wind of innovation. But his drive does not end here, and in 1989 it leads him to set up his own business, making use of the acquired knowledge to create high-quality systems. Stefano, focusing on innovation, quality, and attention to detail, quickly leads Albrigi Tecnologie to become a brand known all over the world. Over time the company transforms, evolves, not only in the production processes, but in the organization, in the continuous training of its staff, and in customer support. Alongside a vast range of products for the oenological sector with a natural inclination to build innovative systems for processing liquids, Albrigi manufactures increasingly articulated and customized systems for sectors where the quality of the product and the
14
BEVERAGE INDUSTRY
finishes are essential elements. Systems specifically dedicated to the food, chemical, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, oil, biotech and nanotech, and petrochemical industries. Today Albrigi, with an operational structure of almost 30,000 square meters, has 60 employees and faces, with the enthusiasm and determination that distinguish its founder, the challenges and opportunities that a market open to the world is able to offer. Combining the name Albrigi with the word Tecnologie (Technologies) has a precise meaning: born in the wine sector, where there is absolute respect for traditions, we always try to introduce the most advanced technologies in the products we create.
This is why there is a constant collaboration with institutions and universities in search of the most innovative and effective solutions. Not only in the product, but also in the manufacturing processes, in the processing, in the use of sustainable products, to guarantee the best result. The goal is to provide customers with systems built with the technology and efficiency of a modern company combined with the expertise and care of an artisan company, to combine these two souls which, if skilfully merged, can lead to the production of excellence. Aiming for excellence in the creation of systems for the processing of food, chemical, cosmetic, pharmaceutical liquids,

and bio- and nanotechnologies, for Albrigi means thinking about the needs of the end customers and the processes that they will have to carry out with that equipment. This means evaluating how to maximally optimize the processes, automating operations in the cellar or in the plant, facilitating maintenance and cleaning, respecting the environment. Because Albrigi’s work does not end with selling a product, but with providing a complete range of services: financing services, start-up services, technician training, after-sales assistance, implementation of existing plants with

Industry 4.0, and used items collection. Used items that are offered to customers, keeping the services unchanged, exclusively with Albrigi Tecnologie warranty. Today, Albrigi products tread the stages of South America (southern Brazil and northern Mexico and Chile and Argentina at the top), South Africa, Far East Asia (Japan at the top), North America and Canada, Australia, Europe (France, Switzerland, Spain, and Croatia), Russia, and the countries of former Soviet Union. Dealing with needs and mentalities that are distant from our national ones often forces us to question ourselves and this is always a source of enrichment for us and for our activities. Following the evolution of the market and the production needs, Albrigi creates both external and internal covered systems for the storage and mixing of food liquids in compliance with the safety standards for those who use them, therefore the HACCP, FDA, PED, ASME, UL, ANTISEISMIC, and ATEX standards are the fundamental rules that dictate the basic requirements of Albrigi Tecnologie systems. All systems include pumps, pipes, weight and level sensors, litre counters, manual and pneumatic valves, saturation with inert gas, nitrogen, CO2, argon, dedicated high-performance electrical control panels, essential tools for any system with PLC for the management of the transfer processes that operate both manually and automatically with remote process control, managed by customized programs with algorithms, reducing manpower by 70%. A wide range of systems to condition new and existing process plants and tanks: with air gaps, heat exchangers, thermoplates, pipe insulation, thermal power plants, steam generators, and diathermic oil. Albrigi Tecnologie’s steam generators and conditioning units can be used with low, medium, and high pressure; the excellent performance and energy saving, including the recovery of dispersed energy, are the result of a design and construction designed to ensure maximum reliability and durability. They meet the high demands of medium and large systems and guarantee considerable energy savings. Washing is a very important phase for a technological system in any sector, to prepare all the equipment and systems for the processes they are designed for. Albrigi Tecnologie is specialized in the study and application of fully programmable fixed manual and automatic washing systems, and in the complete sanitization and sterilization of every corner and surface, always respecting the environment, reducing pollution by 80%. Albrigi Tecnologie was the first in the world to develop a system that carries out any type of process recovering every litre of product, reducing the treatment work by 80%, in some cases even by 95%. Amazing data that makes its customers save a lot of money. Respecting traditions in sectors, such as the food and wine one, where the secret of the genuineness and originality of a product lies in the past. Respecting their customers, their requests and needs, and ultimately those of their own customers. Respecting the work of its employees, guaranteeing their safety and well-being at the workplace. Respecting the territory that hosts us, being an integral part of its development and social fabric. This is Albrigi Vera.

urification and contamination control in the pharmaceutical and food industries. The pharmaceutical and food industry is constantly evolving, even in terms of the supply of raw materials and materials used in manufacturing of filter elements. Thus, it is necessary to apply more sustainable and efficient methods that can be developed in full collaboration between the client and the supplier. Roberto Bea’s BEA Technologies S.P.A., a company that deals with filtration and purification of liquids and compressed gases, acts exactly towards this direction, ensuring high-purity fluids to its customers for over sixty years. From day one, BEA Technologies has been constantly specializing in the production of filtration products for critical applications. Thus, reaching one high level of excellence with the BEAPURE range – “animal-free” filters.
66, these products are specifically selected and elaborated for the pharmaceutical sector. These filters are also available with HALAL certification to ensure that the requested requirements are met, and they can even be used in all manufacturing processes of active ingredients and medications where specific high level of purity of the components, used during the production process, are required. All filter elements of the BEAPURE line are assembled in a cleanroom with controlled atmosphere to ensure maximum cleanliness and quality during the various assembling stages and reproducibility of performance. The filters equipped with a sterilizing membrane are pre-flushed with “Endotoxin-free” water to eliminate any potential traces of endotoxins and processing residues. In 1981, BEA Technologies has been one of the first Italian realities to install a cleanroom for the production of filtered elements, then modernized in 2011.For the future, the company’s president Roberto Bea has predicted a significative investment to double the cleanroom production area. BEA Technologies’s goal is to be considered as a preferred supplier of filters and filtered elements at a European and global level. A goal partly already reached, considering the fact that BEA Technologies S.P.A. has developed an international distribution network in Europe, America and Asia.
The future of the pharmaceutical world The products of the “BEAPURE” line are completely free from products, as gelatins and additives, obtained from animals. Furthermore, thanks to the use of polymer products, polypropylene, polyester, and Nylon

unchanged and at the same time ensure the removal of suspensions, colloidal particles and all other unwanted particles and including the microbiological stabilization in order to guarantee improved bottle preservation. BEA Technologies offers a new series of membrane filters “BIOKLARIS” that provide high performance for a complete range of flow rates and applications. Thanks to the combination of different layers and final membranes, they can eliminate all microorganisms that may contaminate the product during the production process, especially microorganisms that might be present in the make -up water or water used for cleaning equipment. Preserving the composition of beverages during production and storage requires the use of special filtration technologies that prevent changes in the composition and ensure the preservation of specific flavours and all other tastes and characteristics. In comparison to hot stabilization (pasteurization), cold biological stabilization, achieved through membrane filtration, is capable of ensuring the elimination of different bacteria without the addition of chemical substances, thus fully preserving the most valued organoleptic characteristics of the product. This crucial operation must be performed prior to bottling.

industries, recycling industries, and so on. All machines are equipped with the most advanced safety devices. The press filters and filtration systems that are manufactured by Galigani Filtri carry out “mechanical” filtrations, and therefore the liquid does not undergo chemical changes. Filtration can occur on the synthetic filter cloth, which retains solid particles up to 1 micron, or on cardboard for particles that measure less than or equal to 1 micron. When it comes to the most technologically advanced systems that Galigani Filtri can provide for filtration and clarification before bottling, the Diatom and the Clearness systems are in the forefront. The Diatom system is comprised of a filter cloth for the filter press and is equipped with all the necessary parts (tanks, pumps, valves ...) that are required for filtration processes using various aids (fossil shell flour or cellulose flour, perlite...). The Clearness system is a filter press with an Aisi304 or Aisi316 structure, which uses cardboard filters and a plate pack that is entirely sealed and protected from contact with the external environment.

ini Motor wireless technology: COA – Can Over Air New patented technology known as COA to become the benchmark in the field. Mini Motor was established in 1965 but it wasn’t until 1974 that the company came into being as the industrial electric motor manufacturer it is today. The company started with metals and electricity, later adding electronics and computer engineering to its competencies. Industrial automation and mechatronics were then introduced in the late Seventies and early Eighties. These were two strategic traits for Mini Motor and already in its DNA at the time of its inception. Research, development, and innovation: COA – Can Over Air, Mini Motor’s new wireless technology In 2012, Mini Motor set on a road of R&D and design innovation with the introduction of on-board drives on gearmotors and servomotors. As a result of this, a wide range of products were designed and developed for several years. At the same time, the company was working with various types of FIELDBUSES, initially with analogue fieldbuses (Canopen and Modbus) and then the more advanced ethernet buses (Profinet, Ethercat, Powerlink and Ethernet IP). All this led to a considerable reduction of wires and drag chains but, most importantly, to greater electrical panel efficiency, as the drive system was delocalised and built into the motors. In 2018, at the end of this phase, the focus shifted to a new, ambitious, and exciting project: Mini Motor wanted to do more for the general economy of a machine. And so, it created COA - Can Over Air. Mini Motor has developed a proprietary wireless bus based on ZIGBEE technology at 2.4 Mhz that enables wireless control of the motor. The information is simply sent via a coordinator provided by Mini Motor that acts as a transparent wire, making it possible to remotely manage format changeovers or speed and torque changes. This new patented technology, known as COA, is set to become the benchmark in the field, just like the wire had been. The new range will be identified with the letter “W” at the beginning of the code and can be adopted on all Mini Motor products with built-in drives in the DBS and DR series and on the very latest FC - Fast Change range for high-speed format changeover. Mini Motor always has a foot in the door of the future. Join us in this road to innovation.

Elan: The properties of water that comes from the sacred mountains of Cambodia The human body has a pH between 7.2 and 7.3. When the pH level drops below 7.0, the body becomes acidic, especially in individuals who follow a poor diet. For these reasons, regularly drinking natural mineral water with a high pH level, such as Elan water (pH of 8.2),
ASIATIC EDITION
helps humans keep their body healthy and alkaline and reduce body acids. Elan water, which originates from the springs of Mount Phnom Kulen at 496 meters above sea level, benefits from the healthy properties of the pristine land of Kulen National Park, a protected area with low population density and thriving agricultural activities. The attention of Kulen Spring Co. Ltd. towards the surrounding environment has also led to the launch of a reforestation program of the area, in order to protect the source from any form of external pollution. Water under the Elan brand is rich in natural minerals, thanks to its unique mineralisation process, ensured by the slow filtration of rainwater, through several hundred meters of sandstone; This process enriches the water with valuable minerals such as potassium, magnesium, calcium and many other nutrients, which are good for bone growth, blood circulation and the heart of people of all ages. Thanks to these characteristics, the consumption of Elan water has spread more and more in Cambodia and has made it necessary to increase the production capacities of the Banteay Srei District plant, in the province of Siem Reap, which is located near the archaeological site of Angkor Wat and the Kulen National Park. The new investment in advanced technologies provided by SMI, has enabled Kulen Spring to automate the entire bottling and packaging process of the 0.5 L and 1.5 L PET bottle line, which can now produce almost 32,000 bottle/hour.
