HAVER & BOECKER - PILOT PROJECT:<br />
FILLING NATURAL STONES USING THE HAVER-FFS MACHINE<br />
Recently HAVER & BOECKER carried out a pilot project<br />
in Kaisheim, Bavaria at the G<strong>and</strong>l Natursteine GmbH<br />
company. It was the first time a HAVER-FFS machine was<br />
used <strong>for</strong> filling natural stones.<br />
The family-run company of G<strong>and</strong>l trades in natural<br />
stones, <strong>and</strong> processes them. The variety of natural stones<br />
is broad: granite, porphyry, quartzite, quartz s<strong>and</strong>stone,<br />
marble, slate, dolomite, shell limestone, basalt <strong>and</strong><br />
limestone belong to its product range. Now these are<br />
being packed by a HAVER FFS Alpha. It’s the heart of the<br />
complete packing system. Material feeding is done by a<br />
heavy conveyor, followed by washing of the stone. At the<br />
end, there’s a robotic palletising unit with film packaging,<br />
which includes online printing <strong>and</strong> a complete pallet<br />
gathering lane.<br />
The challenge <strong>face</strong>d in this system was to generate a<br />
concept <strong>and</strong> a functionality that allowed the fully automatic<br />
filling <strong>and</strong> packing of fine s<strong>and</strong>, pea-stone, fine gravel <strong>and</strong><br />
coarse natural stone (up to 60 mm) via selectable sort<br />
adjustment. With it, there’s comprehensive film <strong>and</strong> bag<br />
size selection that allows the filling of various premium<br />
quality products into transparent film packaging.<br />
Under the lead-management of HAVER & BOECKER <strong>and</strong><br />
project manager Sebastian Südhoff, the family-owned<br />
At G<strong>and</strong>l Natursteine GmbH company in Bavaria,<br />
natural stone is automatically filled <strong>and</strong> packed into film<br />
packaging by a HAVER FFS machine.<br />
machine builder in Oelde, Westphalia developed together<br />
with film manufacturer RKW <strong>and</strong> BEUMER a packaging<br />
concept that fulfils the highest dem<strong>and</strong>s <strong>for</strong> this <strong>new</strong><br />
market segment.<br />
Customer requirements <strong>for</strong> greater flexibility, ease of<br />
operation <strong>and</strong> optimum packaging quality were fulfilled to<br />
the fullest extent.<br />
