der Branche. Sie präsentiert kreative Ideen und Lösungsansätze für jeden, der in der Getränkewirtschaft tätig ist. Das Fachangebot der BrauBeviale umfasst die gesamte Prozesskette der Getränkewirtschaft. „Das lockt Experten aus sämtlichen Bereichen der Branche nach Nürnberg“, weiß Andrea Kalrait, Projektleiterin der BrauBeviale. „Brauer und Mälzer, aber auch Hersteller anderer al-
koholischer und alkoholfreier Getränke, sowie Fachleute aus dem Maschinen- und Anlagenbau, der Verpackungsindustrie, Handel und Gastronomie - sie alle finden in den acht Messehallen, was sie für ihr Tagesgeschäft benötigen.“ Handwerk trifft HightechQualität und Effizienz liegen jedem Getränkehersteller besonders am Herzen. Bei der BrauBeviale wird er fündig: Von den geeigneten Rohstoffen über die

Technologie bis hin zur Logistik und Marketing diskutieren Aussteller mit ihren Kunden über deren individuelle Anforderungen. Ob Maschinen und Anlagen für die Getränkeherstellung, für das Abfüllen und Verpacken von Getränken oder die Logistik innerhalb des Betriebs und darüber hinaus – für jedes spezifische Bedürfnis werden gemeinsam passgenaue Lösungen erarbeitet. Ambitionierte Brauer nehmen am European MicroBrew Symposium am Vortag der Messe teil. Die gefragte Weiterbildungsveranstaltung wird gemeinsam von der NürnbergMesse sowie der Versuchs- und Lehranstalt für Brauerei (VLB), Berlin, veranstaltet. Fragen rund um die Wertschöpfungskette PET beantwortet PET@ BrauBeviale mit der PET PASSION WEEK, präsentiert von BrauBeviale und PETnology. Eröffnet wird das Event von einem internationalen, zweitägigen Kongress am 9. und 10. November. Für Mittelstand und Global Player gleichermaßen interessant: In der PETarena präsentieren Firmen unter dem Motto „connecting comPETence“ ihr Angebots- und Leistungsspektrum für attraktive Lösungen zur gesamten PET-Wertschöpfungskette. Zum Thema PET Recycling informiert die Gütegemeinschaft Wertstoffkette PETGetränkeverpackungen. Vertrieb trifft KreativitätAuch für Marketingexperten und Vertriebsspezialisten lohnt sich der Besuch: Auf sie warten im Fachangebot spritzige Ideen rund um Vermarktung, Werbung und Dienstleistungen in der Getränkebranche. Außerdem kann jeder Besucher im Forum BrauBeviale seinen Wissensdurst stillen, Fragen stellen, Antworten erhalten oder sich einfach nur kurz im Messerummel niederlassen. Zahlreiche renommierte Branchenpartner haben ein abwechslungsreiches Programm auf die Beine gestellt. Zum Thema Marketing erhalten die Zuhö6
rer beispielsweise kreative Impulse zu „Neues Markenerleben – Getränkemarken, die Verbraucher wirklich berühren“, „Markenerlebnis durch Design“ bis hin zu „Online-Vermarktung“ und „Wein für Bier, was rat ich Dir? Was kann man von der Weinvermarktung noch lernen?“. Aber auch zu weiteren Themen, die den Markt bewegen, wird im Forum referiert, erläutert, diskutiert: „Energie in der Getränkebranche“, „Packaged Water“, „Craft Distilling/Craft Spirits“ – nicht zu vergessen der Aspekt Ausund Weiterbildung. Auch die Eröffnung findet wieder im Forum statt. Die Privaten Brauereien Bayern,
ideeller Träger der BrauBeviale, diskutieren mit prominenten Vertretern der Branche zum Jubiläum 2016: „500 Jahre Reinheitsgebot: Chance oder Korsett?“ Handel trifft HerstellerNeben dem umfassenden Fachangebot bietet die BrauBeviale in ihrem Rahmenprogramm zahlreiche interessante Anknüpfungspunkte für Besucher aus dem Lebensmittelhandel, Getränkefachhandel und der Gastronomie. Verstärkt wird der Effekt dieses Jahr durch die Kooperation mit PRO FachHANDEL/GES eG, die den direkten Austausch zwischen

Zu guter Letzt geht es nicht nur um Alkoholisches – auch bei einer Wasserverkostung kann der geneigte Besucher seine Geschmacksknospen unter Beweis stellen und Händler und Gastronomen das passende Wasser für ihr Angebotsportfolio testen. Treiber des Trendthemas ist und bleibt jedoch der European Beer Star, der bereits seit 2004 seine Messeheimat auf der BrauBeviale hat. Zur schönen Tradition gehört, dass die Besucher am ersten Messetag aus den Goldmedaillengewinnern ihr Lieblingsbier küren: den Consumers‘ Favourite in Gold, Silber und Bronze.
der Besucherzielgruppe Brauerei und dem Fachhandel fördern soll. Die Craft Beer Corner, die letztes Jahr Prämiere hatte, wird weiter ausgebaut. Ganz ohne dem Vertriebsdruck der Anbieter ausgesetzt zu sein, können Händler und Gastronomen hier neue Bierspezialitäten verkosten und sich Ideen für eine Erweiterung ihres eigenen Angebots holen. Namhafte Biersommeliers wie unter anderem Sylvia Kopp, Weltmeister Oliver Wesseloh und Markus Del Monego präsentieren an verschiedenen Bars neutral und professionell Biere in den Kategorien Hopfen, Malz, Hefe und Spezial mit extra Slots für Produkte aus
USA, England und Italien. Und weil auch die Glasform Einfluss auf das sensorische Erleben hat, wird dies an einer weiteren Bar eindrucks- und geschmackvoll demonstriert. Aber nicht nur Bier hat eine solche Vielfalt und verschiedene Facetten zu bieten, deshalb widmet sich die diesjährige BrauBeviale dem außergewöhnlichen Trinkgenuss im Allgemeinen. Das Motto: „Kreative Bierkultur trifft Premium Spirituose“. Ganz in diesem Sinne finden auch Tastings über das Bier hinaus statt. International anerkannte Spirituosen-Experten bringen interessierten Fachbesucher die Vielfalt von Whisky, Rum, Gin und hand-
Craft Beer trifft StreetfoodEssen und Trinken gehören unweigerlich zusammen. Da liegt es nahe, den außergewöhnlichen Trinkgenuss mit unkonventionellem Essen zu paaren. Einen vielversprechenden Blick über den Teller- bzw. Glasrand für Getränke-Hersteller, Marketing-Experten und Gastronomen verspricht die SFC Street Food Convention, die im Rahmen der BrauBeviale erstmals stattfindet – initiiert und organisiert von „FoodtruckSzenevater“ Klaus P. Wünsch. Andrea Kalrait sieht deutliche Synergien: „Das ist für Besucher beider Veranstaltungen eine tolle Chance, miteinander ins Gespräch zu kommen und sich zu vernetzen. Streetfood ist unkonventionell – ähnlich wie die Kreative Bierkultur, Trendthema der BrauBeviale.“ Beide Szenen verbindet der „Craft-Gedanke“ – geprägt von einer guten Portion Kreativität und einem gehörigen Schuss Mut und Optimismus. In Form eines Branchentreffs zur „mobilen Kulinarik“ tauschen sich bei der SFC Street Food Convention bereits etablierte Betreiber aus und informieren Interessenten über alle Aspekte des Business hinter Foodtrucks, Streetfood & Co. Die zweitägige Veranstaltung startet am Donnerstag, dem letzten Tag der BrauBeviale, und öffnet am Freitagnachmittag mit einem Street Food Market ihre Tore für die Öffentlichkeit. 7

AB AND GRANAROLO, ITALIAN LEADERS WORK IN SYNERGY IN THE NAME OF ENERGY EFFICIENCY
Continuing to grow by developing internationally while staying true to the principals of high quality and “Italian spirit”, through a “green” policy linked to energy efficiency: these are the common denominators of the two companies, AB and Granarolo. Given the high electricity and thermal energy consumption levels required by its production processes and with a view to cutting back on its use of fossil energy sources, with economic saving and an improved environmental condition in terms of greenhouse gases as a result, Granarolo S.p.A. recently installed as many as two AB cogeneration plants at its production sites in Pasturago di Vernate (Milan) and Gioia del Colle (Bari).
I
ndustrial agrifood companies are huge thermal energy and electricity “consumers” within their production chain, which has an enormous impact on both their energy bill and the environment. Cogeneration is therefore the ideal solution to address the needs of these companies. Granarolo S.p.A., the largest Italian-owned industrial agricultural operator in
10
Italy, which is growing both in Italy and at an international level, focuses immensely not only on the quality and excellence of its own products, but also on energy efficiency and protection of the environment. That is why it chose AB, an international leader in its own sector, to engineer and construct two cogeneration plants at the production sites in Pasturago di
Vernate, in the Province of Milan, and Gioia del Colle, in the Province of Bari. The electricity produced by the two plants will be fully used by the production sites, as will the thermal energy, achieving a considerable financial saving and significantly cutting greenhouse gas emissions. These two plants are expected to cut CO2 emissions by 5,800 tonnes/year.

AB plants Pasturago di Vernate The activity of the Pasturago di Vernate plant (Milan) is aimed at producing and packing fresh milk, cream, yoghurt, desserts and UHT milk. The plant, an ECOMAX® 33 HE, is powered by natural gas and is a modular container solution with a total rated power of 3,354 kWe at full load and total thermal input power of 7,674 kW. The new plant will produce electricity which, net of consumptions by the auxiliary equipment, will be fully used by the production site of the company, while the thermal energy produced by the exhaust gas and engine cooling system will be used for the company’s technological purposes in the form of 11 barg steam and hot water at 90°C respectively. An exchanger with fumes pipes will be installed on the fumes circuit to produce steam, which is to be used by the company for its own production purposes. The total recoverable thermal energy is 2,808 kWt. The unit is expected to be operative for around 7,000 hours/year. AB plants Gioia del Colle The activity of the Gioa del Colle plant (Bari) is aimed at treating and packing fresh pasteurised milk and UHT milk of the “Perla” and “Granarolo” brands. The plant, un ECOMAX® 10 NGS, is 12

powered by natural gas and is a modular container solution of a total rated power of 1,063 kWe at full load and total thermal input power of 2,673 kW. The new plant will produce electricity which, net of the consumptions of the auxiliary equipment, will be used to meet the energy demands of the factory; the thermal energy produced by the exhaust gas and engine cooling system will instead be used for the company’s technological purposes in the form of 13.5 barg steam and hot water at 90°C respectively. A heat exchanger with fumes pipes will be installed on the fumes circuit to pro-
duce steam, which is to be used by the company for its own production purposes. The total recoverable thermal energy is 1,148 kWt. The unit is expected to be operative for around 6,799 hours/year. Who are AB Founded in Orzinuovi in 1981 by Angelo Baronchelli, AB (www.gruppoab. com) operates in the sectors of cogeneration and the use of energy from renewable sources.

Who are GRANAROLO The Granarolo Group, one of the main players in the Italian agrifood sector, comprises two different, synergistic worlds: a consortium of milk producers - Granlatte - which operates in the agricultural sector and collects the raw material - and a joint stock company - Granarolo S.p.A. - which sells the finished product and has 12 production sites located throughout Italy, 2 in France and 1 in Chile. The Granarolo Group is therefore the most important Italian milk production chain, in which producers grouped together as a cooperative have direct shares. It brings together around 1,000 dairy farmers, a raw material collection organisaton in the barn with 70 instruments and 1,200 vehicles for milk distribution, which handle 750 thousand tonnes/year and serve more than 60 thousand points of sale every day, where 11 million Italian families buy Granarolo products. The Granarolo Group had approximately 2,100 employees at 31 December 2014. 77.48% of the Group is controlled by the Granlatte Consortium, 19.78% by Intesa Sanpaolo and the remaining 2.74% by Cooperlat. The Company declared a provisional turnover of more than one billion Euros in 2014.

ZANOTTI: GREEN SOLUTIONS FOR FOOD REFRIGERATION
Z
anotti Spa has designed and manufactured systems for food refrigeration for over 50 years. A leader in the field, we base our professionalism on the constant search for technological innovations to apply to our products. As for green solutions for food refrigeration, for many years Zanotti has offered units for small- and medium-capacity cells that operate on gas with a very low environmental impact such as Propane R290 or Propylene R1270. Lately, the range of natural gases products has expanded to become the most comprehensive range available on the market. Condensing and CO2 monobloc (R744) units for industry use are the latest in the field of ready-to-use appliances. They are optimal solutions for quick and safe installation in me-
16
dium- and large-capacity cells. The latest regulations in terms of eco-sustainability and energy savings are encouraging energy-efficient products. The new condensing units designed by Zanotti have less refrigerant charge due to new technologies related to the mini-channel, low noise and increased accessibility to components during maintenance. For the new R407F condensing units, Zanotti has recently obtained certification in accordance with the program developed by ASERCOM in compliance with the Ecodesign directive, which, with respect to condensing units, will come into force on 7/1/2016. The Ecodesign directive imposes the minimum requirements of efficiency, depending on the type of application and the power class of the units and also requires complete doc-
umentation on its performance data according to the established parameters. Only a few companies have had their units certified. Zanotti is among the very few which offer unit that operates with R407F gas, a new gas with reduced environmental impact for use in the refrigeration field. Zanotti offers a very broad range of products for applications ranging from small, medium to large capacities. For supermarkets and large logistics centers, it offers CO2 multicompressor systems in both subcritical and transcritical cycles, providing therefore a totally green product. The new generation of industrial systems with green solutions provides high performance by using screw compressors with speed control and a variable compression ratio for high efficiency.
Conveyor belts for the packaging industry Costacurta conveyor belts are used in packaging as well as in many other industrial processes. Thanks to the specific experience gained over more than 60 years, Costacurta can assist the client in the selection of the most suitable type of belt for the specific application. Costacurta conveyor belts are suitable for applications with temperatures ranging from -150째C to +1150째C.

CROWN AND BREWDOG BRING SCOTTISH CRAFT BEER TO CANS Packaging leader helps enhance offerings with development of a new filling line
A
s the craft beer revolution continues to gather momentum, demand for aluminum cans as the packaging format of choice for brewers is on the rise in the UK and throughout Europe. The need to accommodate the requirements of craft producers outside of the mainstream has been recognized and embraced by CROWN Bevcan Europe & Middle East, a business unit of Crown Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: CCK) (Crown) (www.crowncork.com). In response, the company has partnered with Scottish brewers BrewDog (www. brewdog.com) to develop a new 400 cpm filling line in the company’s Aberdeen production center. BrewDog spearheaded the rise of craft beer in the UK and is listed in The 2012 Sunday Times Fast Track 100 as the fastest growing food and drink company in the UK, exporting to over 55 countries and boasting a global portfolio of 26 bar franchises. The new packaging line allows for BrewDog’s premium branded beer Punk IPA to be packaged in 33cl and 50cl cans, as well as its three main brands Dead Pony Club, This. Is. Lager. and Jack Hammer to be canned in the 33cl format - and has the capacity to include further brands in the future. The can is the perfect choice for craft brewers as it affords a wider range of options when compared to other packaging formats. The
18
protection cans offer from light and oxygen is also crucial, as it ensures that the beer reaches drinkers in the same condition in which the brewer intended – something that is of paramount importance to BrewDog. Craft brewers are also increasingly turning to metal packaging as a means to better differentiate their brands on store shelves, making full use of the 360-degree billboard a can offers. BrewDog selected Crown as its development partner in Aberdeen due to the latter’s ability to offer cutting-edge pre-press and print technologies and unrivalled customer technical
expertise. The team is working with BrewDog to create innovative and striking packaging design concepts and then quickly bring them to market. New cans will be developed with Crown’s soft touch varnish finish – a tactile effect that reduces the reflectivity of metal over the whole surface of the can, giving the product a premium look and feel while reflecting the uniqueness of the ingredients within. All design creation, pre-press and proofing activities for BrewDog will take place at Crown’s European Design Studio. Located in Leicester, UK, the studio serves as a onestop shop for brand owners across the EMEA region.

Martin Dempster, Director, Special Ops, BrewDog, plc said: “We see cans as the ideal packaging for craft beer. Its ability to keep the beer fresh and to retain its unique flavor is what attracted us to this format and the team at Crown has made it possible for us to move forward with this very quickly. Within the wider drinks industry we are a relatively small player, but Crown’s technical service team tailored training and support for us and made the whole process feel like a partnership from start to finish, in the same way it would for a global brewer. It is this bespoke treatment and its obvious passion for the can, and the industry, that put Crown ahead of its competitors for us.”

this cross-border cooperation as strengthening both parties: “I am very pleased that we have reached an agreement. Both trade fairs will benefit from it. The exhibitors at drinktec, of which almost half also offer solutions for the wine industry, will have access to even more potential customers as a result of the integration of SIMEI. Vice versa, too, the international scope of drinktec will benefit the SIMEI exhibitors. And not least, this agreement also strengthens the status of Munich as a top location for trade fairs.” Domenico Zonin is also confident: “The cooperation with drinktec is the basis for the further development and internationalization of SIMEI, as the leading trade fair for wine technology.” The next SIMEI takes place from November 3 to 6, 2015 in Milan. After that, from September 11 to 15, 2017, it will celebrate its Munich premiere, as an integrated part of drinktec. In 2019 SIMEI will then again be held in Italy, where, supported by drinktec, it will feature an extended portfolio to include further beverage categories. The agreement between MMG and UIV makes provision for a
special SIMEI exhibition space within drinktec 2017 in Munich dedicated exclusively to the wine sector. This showcase is to extend to at least two exhibition halls, and cover a total of 20,000 square meters of space. As a result the total hall space taken up by the world´s leading trade fair drinktec rises to over 150,000 square meters. In addition to this, the organizers of the two trade fairs have agreed that SIMEI will also get involved in the worldwide events portfolio of drinktec: With drink technology India, food & drink technology Africa and China Brew China Beverage, drinktec already has a strong presence in key global markets. SIMEI has been held in Milan since 1963, and it is regarded as the world´s leading trade fair for wine technology. Over 600 exhibitors and more than 40,000 visitors are expected to attend SIMEI in 2015. The origins of drinktec go back to the 1950s. This trade fair is regarded as the world´s No. 1 event for the beverage and liquid food industry: It covers the entire process chain from raw materials, agents and additives, to production, filling, packaging and logistics, as well as marketing. Francesco Pavanello, Director-General of UIV, commented: “I am proud to see
the attention and recognition shown to this joint project by such an important and international trade-fair company as Messe München. The most important components of this agreement in our view are: UIV retains the brand rights to SIMEI; SIMEI has high visibility at a trade fair as prestigious as drinktec; and we have the possibility of further joint projects in the medium and long-term.” Richard Clemens, Managing Director of the VDMA Food Processing and Packaging Machinery Association (Fachverband Nahrungsmittelmaschinen und Verpackungsmaschinen), the conceptual sponsor of drinktec, sees the cooperation as above all bringing advantages to the exhibitors and visitors of both trade fairs: “The technology already showcased at drinktec for the wine industry will now be superbly supplemented by this cooperation with SIMEI. For drinktec exhibitors there will be additional visitor potential from strong winegrowing countriesabove all Italy. In addition the cooperation also offers significant added value to visitors from emerging winegrowing countries, thanks to a more in-depth spectrum of products and services.

SELF-STANDING POUCHES NOW AVAILABLE IN WEBBED FORMAT Sacmi is taking up the challenge posed by the flexible wine and water packaging sector by offering a new integrated solution for the automated control of self-standing pouches that provides customers with huge advantages in terms of output flexibility and efficiency.
A
specialised supplier of complete plants for the filling, packaging and palletization of flexible packages, Sacmi Packaging is bringing innovation to the self-standing pouches sector: these flexible drink containers (for example, the 3-litre wine pouch is particularly popular in central and northern Europe) differ from traditional pouches as they stand up alone and do not need to be contained in a box. Appreciated by the market on account of their flexibility - to begin with, they are excellent for the application of high-grade graphics - these flexible, boxless pouches were, until now, characterised by not inconsiderable production difficulties: firstly, unlike traditional pouches, their infeed into the machine could not be automated as the pouches were supplied individually
24
and were not webbed together. Now, thanks to an important agreement with Swedish firm Quadpak - which makes the pouches - Sacmi can offer the market continuously-linked ‘webbed’ self-standing pouches that allow fully automated machine infeed. This gives manufacturers major advantages, the biggest being the total absence of manual tasks during loading, filling and unloading. Intended, in particular, for the wine and water sectors, self-standing webbed pouches are rapidly increasing market shares in central-northern Europe, starting with the strategic French market. Sacmi sees the solution as adding considerable value to an already comprehensive plant range that, based on a single technological platform (bag-in-box filling machines characterised by solutions that ensure efficient,
totally ultra-clean filling control), lets manufacturers handle traditional webbed bags, self-standing single pouches and, lastly, the new self-standing webbed pouches. This fully integrated turnkey range will play a starring role on the Sacmi stand at Simei 2015, the international wine and bottling technology fair being held at Fiera Milano (Milan) from 3rd to 6th November 2015- HALL 15 E13/E11. More specifically, the ability to handle all pouch types on the same platform lets manufacturers carry out fully automated production, at no additional cost, of both small decorated lots (e.g. for special events, promotional purposes, trade fairs etc.) and large-scale batches while benefitting from all the reliability, precision and finished product quality typical of all Sacmi filling solutions.

NATURAL SPRING WATER BOTTLER ENHANCES LABELLING PROCESS WITH SIDEL
Four-day installation sees two labellers replaced by one and still achieves a 16% increase in capacity.
M
ountain Valley Spring Company has added 16% to its labelling capacity by replacing two existing bottle labelling machines in its Hot Springs, Arkansas plant with a single Sidel rollfed labeller, the Rollquattro Evolution, in a short and simple four-day implementation process. The company also simplified its processes and further demonstrated its commitment to sustainable production with the introduction of this new Sidel labeller. Preparing for the next 100 years The senior leadership team at Mountain Valley Spring Company understands the value of innovative manufacturing technology. The company has earned its place as the oldest continuously operating bottled water company in the United States by having reliable and efficient equipment to consistently deliver quality products to its customers. In business since 1871, the U.S. premium spring water bottler has had to keep pace with over 140 years of changing market, consumer, and production demands while, at the same time, protecting its brand and bottom line. Labelling - integral to both manufacturing and marketing strategy - is no exception.
Reliable technology for an addedvalue labelling process Prior to implementing the new Sidel Rollquattro Evolution labeller into its production line, Mountain Valley Spring Company utilised two labellers from another supplier. Familiar with Sidel’s blow moulding solutions, the Mountain Valley Spring Company team chose to integrate more technology from the leading global provider of PET solutions for liquid packaging into their operation to help simplify their processes.
So when it needed to upgrade its labelling capabilities, Mountain Valley Spring Company knew that the Sidel Rollquattro Evolution labeller was the perfect solution to help the brand grow into the next century.
“Our former system caused all sorts of inefficiencies on the line, which created excess scrap and added costs to the production of our packages,” said Dennis Adams, Director of Operations for Mountain Valley Spring Company.
26
“We considered a couple of different options, but selected the Sidel Rollquattro Evolution. Looking back, the choice to go with Sidel was simple. In my 27 years in the industry, the company has always been known for its reliable technology.” Fast installation and start-up Factory testing of Sidel labellers prior to shipment helps ensure simple installation with minimal downtime, limiting impact on production. As a result, the Rollquattro Evolution implementation process at Mountain Valley Spring Company proved to be quick and seamless for Adams and his team. Within four days, the two existing labellers were dismantled and the new Sidel labeller was up and running, helping the Mountain Valley
Special
BEVERAGE - BO
Spring plant personnel to avoid production delays. “We shut down on a Saturday morning, rotated the machine and connected to services on Sunday afternoon. By Tuesday, we were ready to go,” said Adams. “The setup was smooth with the Sidel team working alongside us.” Adding 16% labelling capacity with one labeller instead of two Since installing and commissioning the Rollquattro Evolution labeller in May, 2015, Mountain Valley Spring Company has experienced improved labelling speed and performance – both critical components to the company’s continued success. “Within one week of deploying the Rollquattro Evolution labeller, we quickly realised it alone could tackle the work of two of our previous labellers,” said Adams. “Having one total solution has enabled us to streamline our labelling process and will ultimately increase the number of bottles we can label, achieving 700 bottles per minute (bpm) compared to the 600 bpm running previously.” Mountain Valley Spring Company has primarily been utilising the Rollquattro Evolution to apply full-wrap film labels to recycled PET (rPET) bottles.
TTLING TECHN
OLOGIES - PLA
NTS
Flexible and accurate technology Uniquely flexible, the rotary Rollquattro Evolution labeller is equipped with an ergonomically designed, robust and precise linear labelling station. It labels containers with common and uncommon shapes ranging in diameter from 53mm to 110mm. Additionally, the Rollquattro Evolution can easily handle a wide variety of label materials and thicknesses - from wrap-around-rollfed paper to plastic labels – and accommodate a range of container materials, including lightweight PET and other plastics, glass and metal. The highly accurate label application, made possible by the patented label transfer drum and glue and cutting modules, delivers a quality fit time after time; and the automated vacuum, with easy programmable settings, increases label tension and stability control. The label application and overlap alignment are precise at every speed, even for uniquely shaped bottles, with no additional wipe-down system required for label overlap closure. “This solution’s simplified design and high quality parts have contributed to
improvements in our efficiency and performance levels, and saves us a lot of time during changeover procedures” said Adams. “It complements our extensive bottle product line in a dynamic way.” The natural supplier of sustainable labelling solutions One of the key drivers in Mountain Valley Spring Company’s selection of Sidel as its supplier of choice for labellers was the company’s commitment to sustainability. The Rollquattro Evolution’s ability to precision-label lightweight bottles, while reducing glue consumption and waste, won over the long-standing bottler who uses 50 percent rPET in its PET bottles and 35 percent recycled glass in its glass bottles. Due to its unique hot-glue roller design, the Rollquattro Evolution provides savings of at least 15 percent on total annual glue consumption versus other hotglue labellers on the market. “Our team makes sustainability a priority. For decades we’ve concentrated on practicing low-impact water withdrawal, reducing the packaging and energy used in manufacturing, and choosing renewable energy sources whenever possible,” said Adams. “Working with a company like Sidel that matches our dedication to preservation has been incredibly valuable toward our efforts.” Simple, efficient, and sustainable: Sidel’s family of labelling equipment is designed to maximise both the impact packages make on the shelves and the profit producers can earn.

he extensive range of adhesive technologies available from Avery Dennison has expanded once again - this time to include TrueCut™ - a new adhesive technology specifically for paper. TrueCut technology enables major enhancements to conversion speed and adheres better on both cardboard and during low temperature applications. This results in a strong combination of benefits for converters who are looking for superb on-press performance and for end users requiring the broadest possible window of applications. Jan ‘t Hart, global director, Paper & VI, said that label converters will immediately see the benefits of faster and easier operations: “The adhesive gives up to 100% higher conversion speed compared with industry standards and can minimise or sometimes completely eliminate set up time between rolls. Other benefits include fewer web breaks and a shorter ‘time to stick’ (with a threefold improvement vs. an existing alternative). Consistent conversion performance for paper applications, and minimum press downtime, can make a very important difference to productivity.” TrueCut technology can substantially reduce production costs due to its outstanding stability on the press. Rolls can be changed quickly, with almost no adjustments needed when changed. This consistency and reliability brings quantifiable savings and extra capacity at no additional cost.

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.

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 re40
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 für 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-

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
44
WEIGHING
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.

WORLD PREMIÈRE: ‘ATMOSPHERIC BAKING’ MIWE roll-in e+: top baking results with standard pressure in the baking chamber
M
IWE presented a world première at this year’s iba: atmospheric baking. The new MIWE roll-in e+ is the first oven in the world that can bake with a defined, standard atmospheric pressure in the baking chamber. This provides an even baking result that is unaffected by external factors such as air pressure, air speed and humidity. The latest rack oven generation also offers an impressive 8% higher energy efficiency, as well as simpler operation and cleaning. What’s more, it is the first rack oven in the world to
come with a wireless core temperature sensor. The MIWE innovation guarantees not only even baking results, but also absolute process reliability, improved oven operation and, in many cases, shorter baking times. This also saves energy costs. A flue that doesn’t draw air, changes in the weather or a lack of suitable air pressure in the production area – despite all the improvements in baking technology, until now uncontrollable external factors have always made baking more complex, hindering our planning and control over the process.
With atmospheric baking, the pressure in the baking chamber remains stable. When the overpressure in the baking chamber caused by the steam jet drops back to ambient pressure, the controller intervenes and keeps the pressure constant at 0 Pa relative to the ambient pressure until the end of the baking process. In older systems, the air pressure in the baking chamber always dropped by 5 to 10 Pa after steaming, then increased to generate a significant overpressure when the slide valve was opened. The fact that no cold air is added during atmospheric baking reduces the power consumption, while other energy-saving solutions have improved the energy efficiency of the latest MIWE roll-in e+ by a further 8%. The patented flue gas piping system reduces power consumption, as it has an additional channel that is also used to heat the steam. Meanwhile, the MIWE eco:wing positioned in the flue gas pipeline also saves energy. The patented air regulation system MIWE aircontrol, the temperature management system MIWE deltabaking, the triple glazing with insulating glass and the optional heat storage wall provide additional improvements to the rack oven’s energy efficiency. How much power is actually consumed during baking can be documented and displayed

sensor system in a rack oven, which uses multi-point sensors in the oven to transmit the measurements via a wireless connection. MIWE’s developers have made further improvements to the user-friendliness of the new MIWE roll-in e+. The
programs in Easy and Professional mode can be operated using the touch-screen display of the MIWE TC - now with a 10” screen. Thanks to its patented automatic capacity regulation, the controller allows for a reliable baking process, even for small batches and when using the special function for baking small frozen products. The much brighter baking chamber lighting and the new LED status light make it easier to visually monitor the baking process. At MIWE, hygienic design means flat, jointless surfaces that are easy to clean. This applies not only to the splash-proof housing, but also to the baking chamber, the rotating plate that carries the rack trolley, and the door.

High-P makes jam only with ingredients such fruit and sugar: with the vacuum cooking, in halved cooking times, maintaining color, fragrance and taste of fresh fruit. In 15 minutes you can realize up to 20 kg of jam. 4 With the pasteurizing machine Fixpan, the product into jars lasts longer. After packing proceed to pasteurization in water of jam jars with Fixpan. In four moves your product is ready for sale! Vacuum cooking is also fast and maintains maximum nutritional value of foods. The cooking technique under vacuum allows to transform the foods at lower temperatures than with the open lid open. For example, fruit boil already at 80° C avoiding so the usual oxidation of the product. In this way, the colors and the organoleptic qualities of foods are kept intact and the end result is great and quick. In fact the last born in Firex, High-P is a cooker capable of using the vacuum in static or dynamic form and so to produce 20 kg of jam in less than 15 minutes or 50 kg of meat sauce in 35 minutes , considerably reducing the processing times and keeping unchanged the organoleptic properties of foods.

Capacities range from 500 kg - 9.000 kg per hour, consistently produced hour by hour, day by day, and year by year. Why sheeting technology? Rademaker are specialists in sheeting technology. They have chosen the sheeting technology above the traditional system because sheeting provides some important benefits. Sheeting makes it possible to handle a great variety of dough types, from ‘green’ to pre-fermented dough, all at high capacities. By using stress-
free dough sheeters and laminating technology, you can achieve basically any dough and bread structure desired. The Rademaker Crusto breadline concept allows to combine traditional bread types with artisan bread types, all produced on one sheeting system. Wide product assortment at significant capacities The Crusto bread line is developed to produce a wide assortment of breads for mid-sized to industrial bakeries. Whatever bread product the user need, the Crusto bread line can make it. The line consists of a number of innovative and versatile modules on wheels that can easily be positioned in any required line order. This flexibility is key when it comes to configuring the desired application and managing production efficiency. When industrial bakeries choose for the Crusto bread line, Rademaker will provide them
PASTABAKERY
with the best solution for their situation, even if this means developing a customer-specific module. Unlimited variety for the best quality Versatility is key in the Rademaker Crusto bread line. Thanks to the modular set-up, this flexible production line allows it’s users to produce a wide range of breads by simply exchanging one or more modules. A good recipe is the very basis of the bread quality. As it is Rademaker’s quest to produce a wide variety of high quality breads, the Crusto bread line is capable of handling a large variety of recipes, including those for breads with a high water % (strongly hydrated) or low salt content, with bio ingredients, or gluten free, pre-fermented, levain, mother dough, biga and sponge dough. All these recipes result in a very wide range of bread products. If for example it’s users want to produce tin breads Rademaker focus on achieving a fine and consistent crumb structure, as with the high-water absorption artisan breads the focus is on obtaining a light, authentic and open bread structure. Whatever bread product industrial bakeries desire to produce, dough processing holds no secrets to Rademaker. While the Crusto bread line is developed to produce an extensive and international

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 STERILIZER • Quantity to be processed. • Type of product to be sterilized and its (their) organolectic characteristics (viscosity, thermosensitivity, presence of fibers/particulates etc). 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). 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). 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.
64
• 2 heads filler. • 1/2 heads filler for the filling of 1000 kg bags or 4 drums on a pallet. All fillers can be equipped to fill small bags in box and can 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.

BRUKER OPTICS – FT-NIR SOLUTIONS FOR FOOD QUALITY AND SAFETY
THIS INNOVATION WAS HONORED WITH THE “INTERNATIONAL FOODTEC AWARD 2015” IN SILVER. The LSM adds the capability to the MPA for the analysis of raw milk samples. It is fully automated, including cleaning and can handle liquids from whey to ice cream pre-mix.
Q
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 pro66
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.
PRESERVING INDUSTRY VEGETABLE
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-
MEAT
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.
Monitoring Food Processes Online
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.

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.
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.

INNOVATION IN LEAK DETECTION MINIMISES FOOD WASTE Ishida Europe is launching a revolutionary new leak detector to help food manufacturers minimise spoilage in pre-packed retail products.
D
esigned for use with a wide variety of foods including fresh, cooked and cured meat, poultry, seafood, fruit, salads, vegetables, cheese and ready meals, the Ishida AirScan uses advanced laser technology to identify leaks of CO2 from holes as small as 0.5mm in sealed modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) packs at speeds of up to 180 packs per minute. It has been designed to be easily integrated into existing production lines. “With retailers and suppliers under pressure to minimise food waste, packaging leaks have been associated with almost 500,000 tonnes of food wasted in production each year,” explains Alan Mutch, Ishida Europe’s Quality Control Manager. “Compromised packaging can lead to bacterial spoilage, reduced shelf-life and a damaging rise in complaints and returns. This can result in increased cost of production, loss of brand image and reputation, and the heightened risk of retailer fines.” The new Ishida AirScan offers fast, 100% reliable and completely non-destructive identification of leaks of C02 and has been designed to be highly effective in fast moving production environments so that maximum quality can be achieved without compromising on high throughput speeds and minimum packing time. By maintaining the optimum gas fill for each pack, the leak detector provides consistent product quality, and allows production problems to be identified and rectified quickly. It
74
also reduces the amount of packaging that has to be scrapped, while the non-destructive testing process ensures that product can be re-packed. The Ishida AirScan is part of Ishida Europe’s quality control range, which also includes X-ray inspection systems, checkweighers, weighprice-labellers, seal testers and vision systems. “Initiatives such as the Courtauld Commitment, aimed at reducing the environmental impact of the grocery sector, along with high profile food recalls, mean that suppliers and retailers
are giving increasing priority to driving out waste, reducing risk and optimising performance,” points out Alan Mutch. “Investment in quality control equipment delivers quick commercial returns, not only by ensuring a high quality product leaves the factory gate, but also in providing retailers with the added reassurance that they are sourcing from responsible suppliers that can deliver high levels of customer satisfaction.” For more information watch the Ishida AirScan video: www.ishidaeurope.com/AirScan/

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 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 75

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. 76

“CUSTOMIZED” EXCELLENCE A motor reducer featuring extraordinary characteristics for heavy duty operations: that’s not an exception to mini motor but further proof of its mission
I
t is a fact: to build a gear motor characterized by features and performances different from standard is not exceptional to Mini Motor, but the evidence that its peculiar engineering and production flexibility is frequently recognized and appreciated by customers of the world over. It is just product and service customization that has shaped Mini Motor’s activity over the years to the eyes of the stakeholders of the different branches of industrial automation. Particular request from the beverage sector The gear motor we are highlighting now is labeled as PCF5TS, a number that shows it is part of the line of gear motors suitable for the food sector. This case in particular, the customer active in the bottling sector had required a gear motor for heavy duty, suitable for frequent washing and sanitization with highly aggressive chemicals to guarantee utmost sterility of produc-
tion lines. Mini Motor solution: special varnish, IP67 protection and increased torque. As any Mini Motor gear motor of Series PCF, this product features a totally enclosed motor, no cooling fin, as to facilitate cleaning operations. External surface is coated in special epoxy varnish that perfectly resist to chemicals and corrosion, while high IP67 protection level grants continuous operativ-
ity and steady performance over time. This Mini Motor gear motor features a definitely higher torque than standard PCF models, with far more revolutions. This gear motor offers different reduction ratio (5, 7, 10, 20, 40) with rated torque up to 20 Nm. Version B3 with foot and B5 with flange are available. Hollow shaft in stainless steel Aisi 416 upon request.

TECHNOLOGY OF THE FUTURE
Varvel SpA launches innovative products thanks to its R&D department in the forefront which enables to hit important goals
V
arvel SpA, well-established Bologna-based company specialized in designing speed reducers and variators with sixty years of history and tradition, keeps aiming at the future. The company has recently passed the second phase of Horizon 2020, an European programme securing the necessary funds for a new cutting edge “smart reducer” prototype that will be able to operate without lubricant. The objective of this innovative project is the realization of a maintenance free worm gearbox in sizes 28, 40 and 50. An ambitious project which lasts 24-30 months and totaling €1,200,000. This European program is in fact the natural evolution of a hoped development process in which the company has demonstrated an unwavering commitment over the decades. Its success could really lead to a revolutionary product with a huge, positive impact on the community, in terms of efficiency, reduction of environmental impact, energy saving and safety. A similar challenge has not been undertaken yet by qualified competitors. “We accepted the challenge - says Francesco Berselli, President of Varvel SpA - with an enthusiasm born out of the great work delivered by everyone in Varvel over the years and still today, after the celebration of our Sixtieth anniversary. However important it may be, this goal is a starting point towards Europe and the whole world, strengthening the internationalization process that sees us today in more than 60 countries in all five continents.” “Our R&D has always been in the forefront - says Mauro Cominoli, Managing Director of Varvel SpA thanks to a constant exchange with universities, laboratories and national programmes. This effort enabled us to achieve significant results whose outcome will
82
be evident only in the next years.” The impact of a new “smart reducer” operating without lubricant would open new scenarios within the power transmission world and mechanics in general. It will bring high benefits in resource and machinery management, as well as the environmental impact reduction. Performances, reliability and product life-cycle will also benefit future scenarios that are already taking form in Varvel’s R&D. Constant improvement We can and must improve, especially when we need to combine global market’s requirements with increasingly performing products. That is why Varvel Spa has therefore decided to design a new range of bevel helical gearboxes in addition to the current series RO-RV, now called RO2. The major novelty of this gearbox series is the reduction ratio with two gear stages. The new bevel/helical gearboxes includes four sizes: - RO02 - torque 120 Nm - max 25 mm. hollow shaft. - RO12 - torque 200 Nm - max 30 mm. hollow shaft. - RO22 - torque 330 Nm - max 35 mm. hollow shaft.
- RO32 - torque 550 Nm - max 40 mm. hollow shaft. This first approach makes evident a significant feature of the new series: on average, torque capacity is higher by about 20% to 30% compared with that of key competitors on the market. Another notable technical feature is the selection of reduction ratios: gear ratios are from 1/5.2 to 1/51.5 for a total of twenty ratios so as to fulfil the majority of speeds asked by the market. A third technical feature is the monolithic structure of the gear housing: this is a key issue for this type of gearboxes, as usually the housing is the only connection to the machine frame. “That’s an important decision deriving from the utter decision to go on investing in the future, thanks to new proposals and ever advancing technology as to meet the specific needs of different markets, maintaining an international perspective while meeting the specific needs of our customers,” says Francesco Berselli, President of Varvel SpA. Mauro Cominoli, General Manager of Varvel SpA, says “It’s a farsighted albeit very concrete corporate policy that grounds on the knowledge that a product must be sound in terms of
AUTOMATIONCOMPONENTS
quality and reliability, and also able to provide an effective solution that meets the different requirements of different realities in the market.” Certified ethics Varvel SpA obtained the certification for Health and Safety Management System according to the international standard BS OHSAS 18001 (British Standard Occupational Health and Safety Assessment Series). The new certification integrates the already awarded UNI EN ISO 9001 and UNI EN ISO 14001 for quality and environment regulation - switching to a management system designed to strengthen internal organisation. The decision to join the programme aimed not only to reduce ownership risk of incurring in fines or interdiction measures for legislation breaches but also to manage more carefully health and safety issues starting from the initial phases of initial investments and production technology. Some of the most important phases the certified system focuses on are danger recognition and risk evaluation, outsourcing management and plant access, chemical substances processing, personal protection devices, hazard, injury and emergency management, training and performance improvement. Automation in Food & Beverage Varvel SpA ensures innovation and flexibility in the applications for the food industry. The manufacturing of
INDUSTRIAL ELECTRONICS
mechanical components for industrial processes requires significant flexibility in production. For this reason Varvel has stood out with regard to its production of gearboxes and variators for different small and medium-sized applications in various sectors. In the Food & Beverage industry, Varvel, in collaboration with a few manufacturers of industrial machines for pasta production, has gained considerable experience in devising and making worm, in-line, parallel shaft and shaft-mounted gearboxes that are compatible with the movements of industrial mixers. Varvel’s R&D department designs the reducers internally, starting from the client specifications and using the state-of-the-art computing software for gear design. Generally speaking, the pasta making machine consists of two separated vats; base ingredients are poured in the first vat, and then mixed by an auger powered by worm speed reducers or for machines with a greater capacity, bevel/ helical gearboxes. The dough is then put in the second vat where the ingredients are finely mixed in order to produce the fresh pasta. In this phase, a second auger is used driven by worm speed reducers or bevel/helical gearboxes. The dough is then pushed through a press chamber where it is extruded through a drawplate for the continuous production of the fresh pasta. A blade tool, connected to a worm reducer regulating the cutting speed for long or short-type pasta siz-
es, then automatically cuts the dough. Any of Varvel’s worm reducers or bevel/helical gearboxes can be used in the standard versions of this type of machinery. If required, special reducers can be made using FDA-approved (Food and Drug Administration) class H1 lubricants for the Food & Beverage industry that do not alter mechanical performance. Also, to further protect against the corrosive effect of cleaning agents used on the machines, another version of the reducer is available that is covered with a special type of paint that has been approved for use in the Food & Beverage industry. Regarding mills and animal feed equipment, it is becoming more and more important to perform a proper assessment of the atmospheres in which the machines operate since, as of 2003, the European Community classifies them as potentially explosive according to the ATEX Directive 94/9/CE. All machinery in such environments must be designed based on an adequate assessment of the risks of explosion. With regard to mechanical components, it may be sufficient to just use only suitable components that have been already classified by the ATEX Directive. In July 2003, Varvel was the first Italian gearbox manufacturer to submit its technical files to Notified Body number 0080: INERIS (French National Institute for Industrial Environment and Risks), for the certification of its products that are suitable for use in potentially explosive atmospheres. The certification allows reducers to work in Group II (Surface Industries), Category II (Obligation of submitting technical files to the Notified Body), in explosive atmospheres with the presence of gas (G) or powder (D) in classified Zone 1 (2G) and Zone 21 (2D), the latter includes mills and animal feeding factories.

INTERPACK 2017: EXHIBITOR REGISTRATION NOW OPEN “components” registration opens in parallel
I
nterested companies of the packaging and processing sector in the fields of food, beverages, confectionery, bakery products, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, non-food consumer goods, industrial goods and associated services can register as of now for interpack 2017. The international flagship trade fair of the packaging sector and related processing industries will be taking place at Düsseldorf’s exhibition grounds from 4 to 10 May 2017. interpack is a platform for complete value chains, encompassing processes and machines for the packaging and processing of packaged products as well as packaging materials, packaging means and their production, and finally services to the packaging industry. What makes interpack special is its unique array of exhibits and the peerless internationality of its exhibitors and visitors. The last interpack in May 2014 attracted some 175,000 experts, 84 per cent of whom reported being involved in decision-making processes in their respective companies. The overall verdict of the surveyed visitors was excellent, with 97 per cent of them
84
saying they would recommend the trade fair. Of the exhibitors, 83 per cent stated that they had acquired new customers. It is possible to register for interpack 2017 online at www. interpack.com/1330. Companies who took part in interpack 2014 can retrieve their existing details. The official closing date is 29 February 2016. Parallel event: “components” Following its premiere in 2014, “components for processing and packaging” for suppliers to the packaging industry is taking place with an overhauled concept in a central location at interpack. “components” is targeted at exhibiting companies that supply drive, control and sensor equipment, products for industrial image processing, handling equipment, industrial software and communication, and complete automation systems for packaging machines. Also eligible to take part are manufacturers and suppliers of machine parts, subassemblies, accessories and peripheral equipment as well as those of components and auxiliary materials for pack-
aging means. There are no longer any constraints on company stand design, unlike in 2014 when only a selection of system stands was available. Registration within the same period as for interpack is possible at www.packaging-components.com WE INNOVATE To mark the start of registration, interpack is consistently continuing its strategy, launched at the last staging of the fair, of addressing specific target groups. Under its main claim “We innovative”, the focus in communication via all channels is on stories of companies in the eight core target groups. Films about these “innovative eight” form the centrepiece of the communication campaign. This approach can also be found in the printed check-in magazine that potential exhibitors receive at the start of registration. Furthermore, all the films can be viewed not only on interpack’s YouTube channel, but also at the totally revamped website www.interpack.com. This now also has a responsive design for optimised display on mobile devices.
