ROBOX, since 1975, has been developing and producing axis controls, programming languages and development environments ideal for robotics and for “motion control” in general.
The multiplicity of programming languages (structured text, ladder, object blocks) and the wealth of libraries make learning the Robox systems easy for any willing child with the right foundations in electronics and IT provided by Italian higher education.
Robox controls can manage any application, thanks to the variety of fieldbuses on which they communicate, including Ethercat, CANopen, profibus and modbus.
The current flagship product of Robox S.p.A. it is the RP-2 controller, a Robox branded brain with ARM A9 processor that can manage up to 32 interpolated axes. RP2 has gained an important place in robotics and industrial automation in the most varied types of machines, such as flowpackers, fillers, cappers and case packers.
In recent years, the demands for safety in systems and the appearance on the market of many Safety devices have pushed Robox towards the integration and interfacing of these elements and protocols. After the fruitful use of Phoenix safe I/O, Robox has entered into a collaboration with BBH, a German company that has been dealing with security for more than 30 years.
The combination of Robox motion controllers and BBH safety PLCs offers OEMs operating in every sector the possibility of achieving functional safety requirements (SLS, SLP, ...) also for TCP.
The Robox / BBH combination has also found an important application in the AGV sector, where Robox has been operating successfully for decades and has gained experience in all the most used guidance systems: guide wire, laser guidance, inertial guidance, magnetic guidance and natural driving (SLAM).
The integration between control systems and drives has also significantly increased. On the hardware development front, we mention the RID20-E drive which replaced the RID20 drive. We remind you that RID20 is a drive designed to be installed directly on the motor; 14 years after its birth, a

redesign was carried out - the RID20-E - to take advantage of the technical developments during these years.
RID20-E is available in a version suitable for direct installation on the engine (shuttle configuration) and in a version suitable for being placed in the immediate vicinity of the engine (nearby configuration). Thanks to the integration with the motor, RID20-E is suitable for use in all multi-axis applications that require drastic reductions in size and wiring, such as applications in the beverage, food and packaging sectors. www.robox.it

Popping machine RP-EVO: Re Pietro’s innovation for the production of cereal cakes and no-fried snacks
Popping machine RP-EVO is the press of the latest generation manufactured by Re Pietro Srl to produce both cereal cakes and no-fried snacks, products that following a worldwide trend are having a constantly increase in demand. With this new press, the highly innovative attitude of Re Pietro Srl is setting new standards in cereal cakes and snacks production, by offering one solution that will revolutionise and simplify the manufacturing of these products. In fact, once the mould has been chosen and installed, the popping machine RP-EVO transforms the cereals and/or the micro-pellets into fragrant cakes or crunchy snacks. Its efficiency and flexibility allow to have a wider range of products, using one press only. Nowadays these products not only are appreciated as healthy alternatives to conventional bread, but they are also valued for their versatility by professionals and consumers: they are perfect as carbs supply during meals, as crunchy snacks for a quick bite or as fancy decorations to dishes and desserts.
You may wonder how many moulds and which shapes can allow you to produce both cakes and snacks with the new press. Round big and small, round with ridges, triangular or square, hexagonal and rectangular just to name a few. But Re Pietro can also produce customised moulds based on the customers’ requests.
Popping machine RP-EVO – focus on
Structure in nickel coated steel, certified food contact material, electric panel in stainless-steel with a side rotating and swivelling touch screen control panel set at eye’s level for easier use.
Equipped with a hydraulic system that produces the high pressure needed for the expansion of the cereals or micropellets turning them into fragrant cakes or crispy snacks. The volumetric dosing is carried out by a pneumatically operated feeding plate. The moulds which shape the popped cakes and snacks are made by hardened steel coated with titanium nitride, to guarantee solidity and a long-lasting life, and to prevent

the sticking of the products on the moulds. The moulds, as well as all the parts that get in touch with the products, comply with the MOCA specification for food processing machines as per Reg. No.1935/2004 CE (MOCA compliance). The upper and lower moulds are heated by cartridge heaters separately controlled by thermoregulators. Each press has got its own PLC (Siemens S7-1200) and 7” control panel. From the HMI it is possible to set up each production phase, to save the recipes and check any malfunctioning thanks to its efficient diagnostic system. Popping machine RP-EVO is another milestone in the production of Re Pietro Srl, where the manufacturing of food processing machines and plants has always been approached with an eye to innovation and development, relying on 90 years of solid experience. In fact, the company, surrounded by paddy fields in the southern outskirts of Milan, celebrates this year the 90th anniversary of the great intuition of its founder Mr. Carlo Re, who saw the potential of rice and its processing. Without forgetting the incredible added value of the Made in Italy quality.
PND: A new system for processing pineapples in Taiwan
The pineapple offers an increasingly segmental product, which lends itself to both fresh consumption and other types of processing.
PND, a leading manufacturer of fruit-processing machinery, is working tirelessly to install a dedicated pineapple processing plant in Taiwan by June. This system, which can process up to two and a half tonnes per hour, employing a

total of only 9 operators, is composed of two machines: the PL4D peeling-coring machine and the SS8 cutting machine. The intuitive, user-friendly, manual-feed, semi-automatic PL4D peeling-coring machine has a productive capacity of 24/28 fruits per hour. The double-adjustment product and blade rotation enable all fruits to be peeled, even if they are uneven and irregular, achieving a 55% yield, without affecting their nutritional and organoleptic integrity. The machine is equipped with two conveyor belts; one for the peeled product and one for the rejects, with inspection and product certification counters, and a reject chute. Its foodgrade stainless steel structure also guarantees maximum durability and hygiene in the processing area.
Aligning perfectly with the PL4D, the SS8 universal segmenting and cutting machine guarantees the production of 40 fruits per minute. This is a semi-automatic machine, which enables quality cutting, in various shapes (slices, wedges, cubes, depending on production demands) and sizes, made possible by the option to replace cutters and plungers. The operator only has to load the fruit, as the automatic mechanism pushes it through the cutters, producing the desired form, which is then collected on the appropriate output belt for packaging.
While one of the first systems in Taiwan, this is not an innovation, as the pineapple production lines have already been tried and tested by several customers around the world (Australia, Europe, America, India, Asia and Africa);
in fact, PND boasts more than 170 of them for peeling pineapples and melons.
With impressive versatility, ease of use and integration into production processes, effective and fast maintenance and customer care, it not only reduces costs, but also improves results. Thus PND, with its tailor-made processing lines, has succeeded in winning the trust of industry technicians and customers alike, who appreciate its machines as irreplaceable business partners.

Olocco Srl has been manufacturing valves and components for pneumatic conveying and metering since 1950. Its valves are used in the feeding, unloading and pneumatic conveying of any kind of product in grain or powder, in the food, chemical or plastic industry, with low, average, high-pressure lines. Olocco’s commitment has always been characterized by constant research from design to production of valves and accessories, ensuring the manufacturing of products at the top technical specifications, quality and safety. In recent years, the production department has undergone a profound renovation with the commissioning of new machining centres equipped with the most modern, flexible production systems, with high levels of automation for the handling of pieces, pallets, tools. New milling, boring and turning
centres have produced a great increase of internal manufacturing capacity and brought our quality standards to ever-higher levels. During the last years, despite the difficult situation caused by the pandemic, Olocco has been able to complete the construction of the new office building and assembly department. All this demonstrates the will to grow and bet on the future.
In 1997, Olocco Srl obtained the quality certification UNI EN ISO9001:2015 and afterwards certified most of its products according to ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU. In 2007, it so started manufacturing rotary valves in accordance with EN15089:2009, the European Standard that describes the general requirements for explosion isolation systems. Olocco Srl is also able to guarantee the food compatibility of the materials used in the manufacturing of any valve, in compliance with the provisions of EC Regulation No.1935/2004 concerning materials and objects in contact with food products (MOCA), and the EC Regulation No.2023/2006 on good manufacturing practices.
Due to the increase in demand for stainless steel components, the manufacturing of a new range of rotary valves, “UPH”, entirely built in AISI316 stainless steel, with unified round flanges according to UNI PN10 / DIN2576 standards, in the sizes from DN150 to 300 and flow rates from 3 to 37 litres/rev, is at an advanced stage. These valves will be also available in the quick disassembly version with extraction bars, “SMD”, typically to ensure the safety of the operators, to facilitate cleaning and general maintenance, inspection tasks or where rapid cleaning times are requested. A fully disassemblable rotor gives the possibility to clean it separately and remove any deposit. In advance inner surfaces can be completely polished and blended to meet the strictest hygienic standards in food, chemical and pharmaceutical industries.

MIllennium is already conducting large projects in Arab countries. One of the major projects is a collaboration with Salalah Mills Co.
High efficiency in a packaging line is the primary objective of any project manager, when he begins the design phase. In the present days packaging machines have reached performance levels that were unthinkable just a few years back, but as much as a single machine can be efficient, the overall result when you put all the pieces together can be extremely different.
The first result of a Google search with the keywords “Buffering System” is a Wikipedia page on the pH balancing system of the blood that is needed by the human body to maintain the proper functioning of the metabolism.
A packaging line behaves in a very similar way, the different machines need to be connected to each other by an efficient circulatory system and that is able to balance the operating differences that may exist between them. Conveyors represent this circulatory system and are too

often underestimated in the design phase with dramatic results on the final efficiency of the line.
Buffering systems, ensure that the packaging line operates smoothly and efficiently. They are able to compensate for any variations in the speed or performance of individual machines, preventing bottlenecks and ensuring that the entire line operates at maximum capacity. Some kind of buffering systems should always be present in the packaging line, as they can have a significant impact on the final throughput of the line. Providing consultancy in the identification of the correct solution and subsequently supplying the machines to the customer is exactly the core business of M.H. Material Handling Spa, an Italian company that has been operating in this market for almost forty years now, being founded in 1986.
There are a number of different buffering solutions available to cover any possible requirements, far from being a complete list we can point out the LIFO spiral systems Heliflex, that finds its sweet spot for long buffering requirements of thin products and the BAT-Buffer, a modular system that allow great flexibility to fit any kind of product. For naked products handling M.H. has a FIFO solution for the confectionery industry: the 5L multilayer belt, specifically designed for placement upstream rank distribution lines. Even if buffering systems are the easiest way to increase line efficiency, they are not the only important node: mergers, dividers, elevators and products manipulation systems are also part of the mix that allow to walk the path towards maximum productivity. M.H. has expertise in each of these devices, as well as the engineering capabilities to put them together in a layout that is fit every time to the customer’s needs. These last devices cover many needs in the line design: some are mandatory features because there’s the need to connect different numbers of machines along the process, others are useful to optimize the use of floor space available in the plant. Often the focus on efficiency is so high
that brings to neglecting other aspects, like the ergonomics of the line, accessibility of machines for the operators, passages and storage areas for packaging materials and other utilities. Balancing productivity, line ergonomics and return on investment is M.H. Material Handling’s mission.

Marotta Evolution Group was founded thanks to the passion of Carmine Marotta and has a long experience in the design and production of industrial plants.
It operates in the field of machinery production and in the Research and Development of automated solutions for industry. It specialises in the creation and production of burrata machines: the only company in the world, to date, capable of creating and marketing automatic machines for the production of burrata, a typical Italian dairy product with a strong artisanal connotation.
With the aim to innovate an industry that relied solely on pneumatic volumetricians and experienced cheesemakers, who were increasingly difficult to find and hire and on the strength of its decades of experience in the industrial automation sector, Marotta Evolution Group was able to successfully design and manufacture an automatic burrata machine in 2019, achieving a result never before achieved by any other company in the world, thus giving entrepreneurs in the sector the opportunity to enjoy a major increase in the production capacity of their factory.
Making a machine that produces burrata is the solution that automates the production process, as well as significantly reducing the risk of contamination, as the product is not touched and handled by the operator and, as a result, the shelf-life of the finished product
is increased, helping companies to guarantee a fresh product for longer, without sacrificing quality and the Made in ltaly tradition.
Furthermore, the Marotta Evolution machine is capable of making the product while respecting the Italian character of the dairy product, ensuring that on every table in the world there is the same product, good and of quality, exactly as the consumer requires. A further peculiarity of Marotta Evolution machine is that it can
make burratas of different sizes: from the very smallest 30 g, tiny gems of milk, up to 500 g burratas. Another important plus is that the same machine, with a simple click, can make the “figliata”, a burrata filled with mozzarella chunks.
Marotta Evolution is socially aware by supporting the less fortunate, which is why it chose to support the Core’ a core’ association, which distributes basic necessities to families in need, homeless people and children’s hospitals.

PIC 99 BCE: evolving technology since 1987
Inox Meccanica has been providing complete services in innovative technology for automatic industrial meat processing machines for 40 years. The product portfolio is very broad and ranges from machines for pressing, forming and automatic bagging of product in nets and casings to a whole series of machines designed for industrial washing.
One of the spearheads of Inox Meccanica’s range is certainly the PIC 99 BCE, the automatic machine for forming, pressing, stuffing, tensioning and clipping anatomical products, such as bacon, pork neck, bresaola, hams, loins, roasts and muscles in general. With PIC 99 BCE, it is possible to fill into cellulosic, collagen, plastic and elastic casings and the product can be packed in casing and net at the same time bringing considerable time savings.
Currently, PIC is the best solution on the market for the production of product bars to increase slicing yield. Over the years, Inox Meccanica R&D department together with the team of designers and programmers have made significant updates and technical improvements to this machine. Improvements that Inox Meccanica is constantly updating, adapting the machine to each of its customers’ production requirements.
The PIC 99 BCE is equipped with both manual loading, which has been made safer and more ergonomic, and automatic loading by means of a belt that allows automatic
positioning of the product to be bagged inside the mould, considerably speeding up the bagging cycle and leaving the operator with the sole task of positioning the product on the belt.
Another factor is the automatic tubes change system thanks to which the operator no longer has to constantly monitor the level of casing and net consumption, which once finished activates the tube changing system so that there is no downtime, and the operator can load the new casing and net onto the tube while the machine continues its cycle.
Inox Meccanica automatic bagging machine is versatile and available with moulds from ø800mm up to ø1100mm. The versatility is given not only by the multitude of products that can be filled, but also by the brand-new electric pusher with which it is possible to adjust the filling speed and, above all, the force with which the product is pushed into the filling tube, a decisive factor especially when using very delicate casings.
Inox Meccanica’s innovation in process technology does not end here, because with a view to offering ever more punctual services and complete solutions, the company has also added to its PIC a state-of-the-art Stick Loader (basting machine) that allows sausage products to be placed on sticks for hanging to be cured.
The entire Inox Meccanica line is super-tested and constantly evolving because the real result that is cared about is customer’s satisfaction.

Multiple lines in the Middle East’s biggest confectionary plant end with packaging perfection thanks to Cama technology
The Zar Group is one of the Middle East’s biggest diversified food companies. Serving the region for over 30 years, it not only owns and operates the region’s largest pasta production site, but recent investment following a portfolio enlargement has led to the design and build of the region’s largest confectionary plant too.
Construction of the new plant for the newly formed Zarkam brand began in 2018 and Cama delivered its first machine in 2019, but work was subsequently stalled and put on hold for 18 months, due to the Covid pandemic. However, it started back up again in 2021 and is already producing products from two complete lines and one partially completed line.
“Interestingly, unlike many other plants around the world that specialise in single product types, this plant produces a huge variety of confectionery from a single site, including cakes, wafers, sandwich biscuits and crackers. This product variety means that the plant has to deploy a wide range of technology solutions for every element of the individual processing and packaging steps. But Cama is the only company handling secondary
packaging across all the lines, no other machine supplier has this depth of technology in the plant.”
“Cama’s BTG Series has design and operational features that are setting the standard in secondary packaging. Their modular, scalable and hygienically designed frameworks house contemporary automation solutions – including advanced rotary and linear servo technology – which can be tightly coupled to in-house-developed robotics, to deliver the all-important flexibility and adaptability required by modern packaging operations. The machine range is also based on a digital platform that supports full Industry 4.0 capabilities, including AR, VR and virtual testing, training and operation.”
“For such a prestigious project, we deployed a dedicated Iranian support team for the Zar Group for installation and commissioning. Zar Group can call up on three full-time local Cama engineers, without worrying about language barriers, visas and travel times, something for which they are very appreciative. We also acted as a consultant in the early stages, as they did not have deep knowledge of the confectionery industry. We helped them with packaging design, material selection, machine locations and product launches, based on our in-depth knowledge from other industries and applications around the world. We always explain to our customers that we are not just a supplier, we are a partner that is happy to share skills and knowledge to ensure success.”
Mr. Mohsen Amini CEO at Zarkham explains: “To be the best in the world, you have to use the best in the world, so it was essential that we chose technology partners that could help us achieve our aims. Cama’s machines are used by many of the world’s leading confectionery brands, so we know there is an established pedigree behind the name. Their digital infrastructure makes integration easier, and the user interface is the same across all the Cama machines, so there is less to learn for the operators. The support before, during and after installation and commissioning has been excellent.” www.camagroup.com
