Making packaging solve
global food waste crisis
I've spent several hours booking
another foreign trip on a
way-too-expensive inconvenient
flight to an airport some distance
from where I need to be. When
I get there, I'll be sharing the
basement of an elderly lady’s
house with a ceramic fireplace
collection and most likely an
Italian label machine sales guy.
Yes. It’s interpack time again.
So will start another chance to
be amazed and astounded by the
quantity and variety of packaging
machines, products and materials
as 2,700 exhibitors and 160,000 plus visitors vie for their share of
the $797billion worldwide packaging market. ‘The biggest industry
you've never heard of’ is also in the spotlight as global concerns
about sustainability, efficiency and waste take up more of the
media and public awareness.
Roughly 50% of packaging is food related and interpack is
highlighting the huge annual carbon footprint of worldwide food
waste – 3.3 Gigatons of CO2. Compared to national CO2
emissions, this puts food waste behind only China and the
USA’s total CO2 output.
This presents our industry with a real opportunity to make a
difference to our environment by developing and using innovative
new packaging concepts, machines and technologies to reduce
this staggering figure. The German exhibition and our own PPMA
Show later in the year will present the results of many businesses
that have put sustainability at the heart of their corporate planning.
Waste reduction will follow the ability to form and use less or
thinner materials, with improved barrier properties, potentially with
‘intelligent’ coatings, to increase shelf life and therefore the
percentage of food sold that is actually consumed. New systems
for flexible packaging reduce volumes of incoming materials and
outgoing packs. And new disinfection and aseptic systems at the
point of packaging will minimise spoil and pack integrity testing
while rejection in high risk areas will allow repacking of good food.
Automation reduces human contact with food and allows the
maximum potential speed of lines to be maintained thus reducing
the time from pack to ship and the energy consumed creating
each pack. Advanced sensing and new vision systems combined
with condition monitoring and predictive maintenance systems will
keep machines running for a higher proportion of the time and
will ensure packs are correctly filled and labelled.
There are many ways that designers and companies in our
industry are developing new ideas in this field. PPMA figures
suggest that 43% of Machinery Update readers package food.
Exhibition visits can help make sure less of it is wasted.

True Colour Sensor
The Balluff BFS 33M true colour sensor detects colour differences
better than the human eye (resolution less than 0.5 delta E). Hence
polished from unpolished metal or faded colours or poor print quality
are no problem. Even the slightest shades, smallest grey level changes
or minimal deviations in surface properties show up. A robust metal
housing gives industrial strength, the long range lens and fibre optics
mean application flexibility.

Every little helps when
taking on supermarkets
Christine Tacon is happy to hear from indirect as well as direct suppliers about issues affecting the supply chain
If you think that it is just the
corporate giants or direct
suppliers to supermarkets that
the groceries code adjudicator
is happy to hear from – then
think again. For Christine
Tacon is more than happy to
hear from indirect as well as
direct suppliers about issues
affecting the supply chain.
And in case you fear a
backlash from putting your
head above the parapet, then
it can all be conducted
anonymously. And in case you
think this is still too risky, you
can rely on trade associations
to put your views anonymously.
And it’s not just associations
such as the Food & Drink
Federation and the National
Farmers Union, it also
includes the PPMA.
Survey coming
Indeed, the groceries code
adjudicator will be conducting
a survey in the coming weeks
that will be distributed to direct
suppliers but also to indirect
suppliers via the PPMA.
The aim of this survey is to
benchmark today’s situation
against future events and to
see if the Groceries Supply
Code of Practice – or GSCOP
– is levelling the playing field.
“Survey findings will be
published with the Annual
Report and Accounts in the
summer,” explains head of
operations and policy in the
adjudicator’s office, Angela
Latta. “I would encourage all
suppliers to take part as we
want it to be as robust as
possible,” she tells Machinery
Update. “The more we can
promote the Code of Practice
the better,” she says.
“This is good news as far
as automating the food sector
is concerned and for our
members as most supply their
machinery to the sector,” says
the PPMA’s Grant Collier. “After
surveying the 367 manufacturers
that went through the
government’s automating
manufacturing programme
there is clear evidence that the
reluctance to adopt automation
is in part driven by endless
squeezing of supplier margins
by the major multiple retailers.
“Hopefully the adjudicator’s
actions will help change this
culture and enable long
needed automation of the
UK’s largest manufacturing
industry.”
PPMA Show
Christine Tacon is a former
boss of the Co-operative
Group’s farming business and
was appointed to the role of
groceries code adjudicator
last January. She is
responsible for enforcing
GSCOP which regulates
interactions between the ten
largest supermarkets and their
direct suppliers.
In this role, she has the
power to launch investigations
into suspected breaches of
the code, impose fines and
also arbitrate disputes
between large supermarkets
and their suppliers. Indeed,
she will be sharing the very
latest state of play at the
PPMA Show at the NEC,
Birmingham in the autumn.

Apprenticeships
– get involved
With National Apprenticeship
Week taking place at the
beginning of March, Skills
and Enterprise Minister
Matthew Hancock believes
there has never been a
better time to start thinking
about offering a young
person an apprenticeship or
a traineeship.
Hundreds of employers
are now behind traineeships,
helping to unlock the
potential of motivated young
people who are not yet work
ready. And the Government
is urging even more
employers to get involved to
help 16-23 year olds gain
the vital work experience
needed in order to get an
apprenticeship or other job.
Traineeships give
unemployed young people
work preparation training
and work experience as
well as English and maths
qualifications.
“We introduced
Traineeships to unlock the
great potential of young
people,” says Hancock.
“Employers involved in the
programme are now helping
their trainees to develop
the skills that are required in
the workplace.”
Meanwhile, the search is
now on to find the country’s
top apprentices and
apprenticeship employers.
The National Apprenticeship
Service challenges the top
apprenticeship employers
and apprentices to come
forward and show how
apprenticeships have made
a real difference to them.
Now in their eleventh year,
the awards are an
opportunity to highlight the
success stories.
There are six employer
and four apprentice categories.

Investment plans boost
GB economic activities
Coca-Cola Enterprises (CCE)
has announced plans to invest
£1million a week this year to
boost productivity and
efficiency in its business in
Great Britain.
Key projects include the
installation at the company’s
flagship Wakefield factory of a
new production line dedicated
to making the iconic contour
Coca-Cola bottle in large PET
sizes (1.25 litre and 1.75 litre).
The company also plans to
install a CHP (combined heat
and power system) at
Wakefield, which will save
1,500 tonnes of CO2 a year.
And in March, CCE officially
opened a £30million
automated
warehouse at the
site – with
capacity to hold
30,000 pallets.
Wakefield,
which is
Europe’s
biggest soft
drinks factory,
celebrates
its 25th
anniversary this
year and the

installations
complete a
five-year,
£100million investment
programme to ensure the site
continues to lead the industry
in terms of efficiency, flexibility
A new production line will make
the iconic contour Coca-Cola
bottle in large PET sizes
and environmental
performance.
Other projects for 2014
announced by CCE include
the completion of a high speed
canning line at its Sidcup
facility. The line’s capacity will
almost double to 120,000 cans
an hour following the
investment and it will have
the flexibility to
produce multiple
formats including
150ml mini cans
and 250ml
slimline cans.
With the
latest
announcement,
CCE has
invested
more than
£200million in
its business
since 2011.
And Simon
Baldry,
managing
director at CCE, said: “Our
latest funding pledge shows
once again our desire to invest
significantly in the most
innovative and efficient
technologies available.”
The news coincides with
the results of independent
research into the economic
impact of Coca-Cola in GB.
Led by eminent economist
Professor Ethan Kapstein
the socio-economic impact
assessment revealed that
every pound of value created
by Coca-Cola supports an
additional £8 elsewhere in the
British economy – the
equivalent of nearly
£2.4 billion annually. The
research also shows that
Coca-Cola supports a further
34,500 high-quality, skilled
British jobs across the economy.
● A speaker from CCE –
namely Ian Barnett from its
Sidcup site – will be

Top seal wraps
Redpack has introduced the
NTS top seal flow wrapping
machine to build on the
success of its popular
HTS model.
The NTS is designed to
provide enhanced versatility
and, with its flexible modular
construction, reduced
machine footprint and faster
production, it can be used in
factories, pack houses and in
field harvest rigs.
A three axis drive control
for product flexibility is
combined with a touch
screen HMI and simple
operator instructions for
parameter entry and product
changeover. It can pack a
wide range of products with
packaging speeds currently
exceeding 110 a minute.
Although the NTS is very
compact, further space
saving can be achieved by
the inclusion of an integrated
90 degree product outfeed
conveyor or rotary product
take off table with either of
these units used in place of
the more conventional
product outfeed conveyor.
To take maximum
advantage of the enhanced
speed capability, the NTS
can be assembled with film
auto-splice so that new reels
of film can be automatically
synchronised without
operator intervention.

Flow is kept balanced
The continuous motion operation of the DMT diverter allows for very compact line layouts requiring less
space, conveyors and conveyor speeds than today’s industry standards, says FlexLink
Versatility and gentle handling
for a wide range of products is
offered by the new DMT high
speed diverter from FlexLink
Systems. Indeed, says the
company, it perfectly balances
production flows of up to
1,000 products a minute or
100 metres a minute.
In operation, smooth
product handling of products
from bottles and boxes to
soft packages is offered
without stopping, gripping or
queuing. This is what makes
it suitable for sensitive
products, too.
The design of the diverter
means there is little or no
need for set-up during
changeovers between
different product formats
which improves OEE and line
availability. The design is also
robust and clean, and with a
long life requiring minimum
maintenance.
Each DMT diverter is
supplied as a standalone
machine including hardware,
guarding and controls. The
graphic interface allows
operators to set all relevant
production parameters and
collect feedback for the
system very easily.
Product throughput is not
restricted and is never
stopped by the diverter. Also,
compensation in terms of
increased conveyor speeds
and long divert slugs requiring
additional conveyors is
avoided. This facilitates
compact layouts and reduction
of waste in terms of non-value
adding equipment, product
accumulation, product
damage and energy.
Like all the diverters in the
FlexLink range, products are
distributed according to
down stream requirements
and the intelligent features of
the diverter enable a demand
driven production with
optimised conveyor and
machine speeds.

combined with an
appropriate packaging
machine, the MP
36-400/400-C is said to be
one of the world’s fastest
combination weighers of its
kind. The compact design of
the 36-heads enables
optimised performance in the
smallest of space. The small
hopper has a low net weight,
an important contribution
towards achieving the
highest speeds. Depending

the system a high degree of
adaptability that will appeal to
all users.
The M220 from Domino
can be configured to suit
various pallet applications
It is available in either
aluminium or stainless steel
and both versions have
optional label check scanners
and a climate control unit.
The stainless steel version is
particularly suitable for harsh
stainless steel hoppers
developed specifically for this
purpose can also be used.
The overall design of the
weigher satisfies even the
toughest hygiene
requirements for the food
industry, says Multipond.
Designed to be used in
wet environments too, the
unit is suitable for weighing
up to six soup ingredients,
environments found in the
beverage sector, as it is
more durable and can be
easily cleansed and
sterilised to guarantee a
clean production
environment at all times.
“Our target is to help
provide in-house
operators with optimal
working environments
whenever possible and
thanks to the flexible
design of the M220,
production lines can

Safe weighs in
explosive areas
Improved safety protection in
explosive manufacturing
environments is being offered
by the new Atex certified
checkweigher from
Mettler-Toledo Garvens.
The XS3 checkweigher
offers exceptional weighing
sensitivity to minimise the
instance of costly product
giveaway and an advanced
design to comply with
European Atex safety
requirements for devices used
in areas at risk of explosion.
Featuring an anti-static belt
conveyor, the checkweigher
is also ideal for the inspection
of small, lightweight products.
Each section of the Atex
XS3 checkweigher, including
the weighframe, operating
terminal and control cabinet
has been constructed
specifically to meet the strict
requirements of the standards.
The Directive stipulates
essential safety requirements
for equipment used in
explosion hazard zones such
as those involved in the
production of dusty,
powdered products or
flammable gases.

multihead weigher with an
intermittent motion
Astro-S-103 bagmaker or a
14-head economy weigher
with a rotary motion Atlas-113

While the Atlas option is
ideal for handling pillow bags
at speeds of up to 90 bags a
minute, the Astro will usually
be specified for speeds up to

70 bags a minute, but for a
wider style of bag. For
instance, in addition to pillow
bags it can also handle
gusseted and block bottom
bag formats with minimum
change parts and simple
machine maintenance.
Both the Atlas and Astro
bagmakers feature servomotors
and software
controlled variable seal time,
jaw temperature and pressure
that allow the handling of
many film types, including
standard, metallised,
recyclable and biodegradable.
Stripping plates clear the
seal area before sealing which
ensures good pack quality,
while the servo driven and
vacuum assisted pull down
belts enable accurate and
consistent bag lengths. This
maximises film use and
optimises pack presentation.
A user friendly operator

Tray sealer adapts for multi styles
Proseal has developed the
GT5 tray sealer to adapt to
any type of packing operation.
This includes atmospheric
sealing, MAP gas flushing,
vacuum MAP sealing, skin
packaging below and above
the flange, and skin deep
which allows a 100mm
protrusion of product over the
top of the tray.
In twin configuration, the GT5
is capable of achieving in
excess of 200 trays a minute
across all of these pack formats.
Customers can simply
select the format types they
require and these can be
added to or taken off at any
time. This, says Proseal,
allows food manufacturers to
change their pack formats in
line with customer demands
without having to invest in
new equipment.
The tray sealer also features
new Proseal technologies
Pro-Motion and Pro-Tect.
Pro-Motion uses following
motion and intelligent
buffering technology to enable
trays to feed continuously into
the sealer without stopping.
Shrink wrapper
gets upgraded
Audion Elektro has upgraded
its Audionpack H22SA
standalone shrink wrapper to
improve operator efficiency
and provide greater
productivity, says UK agent
Friedheim International.
Among the upgrades is the
ability to store ten programs
instead of the current six, the
use of a larger fan in place of
the existing two smaller ones,
thereby allowing a greater
circulation of air and an
‘opening delay’ in the raising
of the hood to prevent hot air

Special lamps
offer benefits
Jenton has licenced its
patented uv lamp technology
to MicroTek who is using it to
treat opaque liquids such as
milk and orange juice to
substantially extend the shelf
life of these products.
And, because this is a lower
temperature method, it does
not change the taste due to
less fouling.
The lamp is powered by
microwave energy instead of
direct connection to
electricity as seen in more
conventional uv systems.
This leads to higher
efficiency in converting
electricity to uv radiation.
Jenton’s novel
electrodeless high output,
low pressure mercury lamps
use pulsed uv predominantly
at 254nm wavelength that
exposes the product to
pulsed uv radiation. Fluids
passing through the system
are kept turbulent to help
with uv exposure.
According to MicroTek’s
managing director Allan
Slater, using this process on
milk has improved flavour,
extended shelf life and
lowered costs when
compared to competing
processes.
Richard Little, managing
director at Jenton says uv
radiation is widely used for
sterilisation of water, air and
some surfaces but is only
recently finding direct food
applications. “One reason for
this is the low penetration
depth of uv in turbid or
coloured fluids, however
when applied in properly
designed systems, uv can
be very effective in treating
opaque liquids.”
The lamps are also
used in systems MicroTek
offer to the market for
exposing surfaces to uv.

Smart camera offers
plethora of benefits
The smart camera’s wide range of functions makes it suitable across a variety of industry applications
The new weQube product
platform from wenglor sensoric
offers all the features of an
advanced image processing
sensor but with many more
benefits for users. Wenglor
describes it as a compact,
clever and highly talented
smart camera that can do
everything.
For instance, many cameras
provide illumination and
communication interfaces as
external individual components,
whereas weQube combines all
components and features
required for smooth image
processing in a compact
housing. Equipped with
comprehensive communication
interfaces, it can adjust to its
environment with ease and can
therefore react to customer
requirements very quickly.
Initially, there are two
software packages for the new
platform: the weQubeVision
image processing package for
pure image processing and
the weQubeDecode scan
package for reading 1D and
2D codes.
“The software transforms
weQube into a vision sensor, a
1D/2D code scanner or a smart
camera, depending on what
our customers need,” explains
wenglor product manager
Stefan Winkler. Software
packages, three different light
types and communication
interfaces currently provide for
more than 20 different
production versions which are
designed to offer a suitable
solution for every industry.
Additional packages will
follow in the coming months.
Winkler believes that
weQube is one of the most
intelligent and flexible systems
on the market. “There are some
devices that incorporate
individual advantages over our
platform but we are the only
ones to offer the complete
package of all features in one,
compact system.” says Winkler.

System keeps
milk flowing
Knight Warner has ensured a
handling system it devised
with Nampak has achieved
adequate supply of the right
type of milk bottle, at the
right time, in the correct
orientation and undamaged
at a large dairy in Northern
Ireland.
This handling system
delivers HDPE bottles to the
milk filling heads at speeds of
up to 500 bottles a minute at
the Pennybridge dairy in
Ballymena.
According to Colin Powell,
technical director at Knight
Warner, the key was in the
integration of its patented
‘stripping system’ in
conjunction with the latest
PLC technology and
sophisticated safety systems.
“This allowed us to provide
a solution which met all the
requirements of the dairy,
along with the installation of
the equipment into the
minimum possible footprint,”
he says.
The installation includes
de-baggers, conveyors and
management information
system interfaces.
“Provision was made in the
design to cater for the
handling of our lightweight
Infini bottle which reduces the
weight of existing milk bottles
by up to 20%,” explains
Jamie Tinsley, commercial
director at Nampak Plastics.
The ability for remote access
to the equipment allows
continuous plant condition
monitoring and produces
efficiency performance data.
It can also highlight alarm trips
and fault codes, and also
maintenance requirements.
Applying advanced

Labels/labellers have
a host of advantages
Atwell Labellers’ bespoke
offering to the daffodil market
has seen the company deliver
its ninth machine to
Winchester Growers to cope
with approximately 24 million
bunches this season.
Included in this number are
the charity labels produced for
Marie Curie currently running
as a promotion throughout
the UK.
Six years ago Atwell was
approached by Winchester
Growers to design a machine
and a label that could be
applied automatically, and at
speed, to a bunch of freshly
picked daffodils. This was to
replace the very labour
intensive method of the
previously used plastic.
Atwell designed and
supplied the first two
machines back in 2008 which
at the time, were only labelling
about two million bunches of
daffodils. As the product has
been developed over the
years however, the use of
these labels has expanded
following their adoption by the
majority of major UK retailers
as well as users in mainland
Europe and the US.
The label has been
developed with the growers
over the years to include a
specific shape and size to
handle a variety of bunches of
daffodils. A specific material,
varnish and adhesive for the
product have also been
developed along with a
special adhesive pattern to
allow the label to be applied
around the bunch of daffodils
without leaving any residue on
the stems. This adhesive
pattern also maximises
machine application.
This development also
means that daffodils no longer

daffodils currently running as a promotion throughout the UK
need to be wrapped in plastic
outers, so better for the
environment, the principle
could also be used for other
products such as asparagus
or spring onions.
The ability to tailor its
equipment, and consumables,
to meet customer needs is,
believes managing director
David Charlesworth, why the
company recorded its best
ever month in January this
year. “With a healthy order
book going forward,” he tells
Machinery Update.
Other recent bespoke
projects include equipment for
labelling light fittings, tray
cards in bedding plants, waxy
face paint crayons and the
tricky-to-label tapered soup
pots, plus obviously a number
of standard machines for
typical self-adhesive label
applications.
Charlesworth reckons that
the work the company put in
on servicing levels during the
recession is now paying off.
“We expanded our service
team to allow our customers to
keep running equipment when
money was tight and there
was no money for new ones
and expanded the services
available to our customers,”
he says. “Indeed, we are still
expanding the service and
consumable side of our
business as well as the core
machinery side to ensure we
give our customers everything
they need.”

Minimum product drop was achieved on the Cama line designed for petfood
packaging requirements, crates
are fed into a robot loading
buffering system comprising
four individual cells with two
axis robots unloading the
pouches flat onto an infeed

the orientation and product
availability.
Minimum product drop was
achieved by the style of preerected
cartons formed on a
triple head erecting machine
and their positioning on
the 45 degree angled
feed conveyor to the
loading cells. This carton
position enables the
pouches to be loaded
with minimal drop,
giving gentle handling

waterfall feed system, the
pouches are gently positioned
into pockets reducing any
potential product damage. The
loaded pockets are fed into the

Filled cartons are then turned
on edge and enter the Cama

Compact sieve ensures product quality
When Altro developed a new
range of safety flooring a new
sieving machine was required
to meet its exact quality
requirements.
At Altro, recycled glass
granules is one of the
materials used to increase the
hardness of the flooring while
adding to its robust safety
features. In addition, the use
of recycled glass conforms to
Altro’s sustainability plans.
Before the glass is fed into the
flooring, it is passed through a
sieving system via a hopper
where oversize particles are
removed, leaving the fine
material needed. Correct
particle size material is then
added to the product line.
Having purchased two
Finex separators from Russell
Finex eight years previously,
Altro arranged an onsite trial
for a 600mm diameter
Russell compact sieve to be
installed within the new
processing line so its staff
could monitor the effectiveness
and suitability of the machine.
Sieving recycled glass
during the trial proved very
successful and the purchasing
decision was made. “The trial
allowed us to put the machine
through the toughest
conditions and it needed to
succeed to ensure that
product quality would not be
compromised,” says Richard
Holt, manufacturing shift team
leader at Altro.

The slim-line straight through
design enabled Altro to mount
the sieve below the hopper, with
material passing straight through
to storage once sieved

Redesigned filler is future
The Adelphi Group has
redesigned its range of filling
equipment to meet the
changing needs of customers
and will unveil the modern new
design at the show.
System F is not just a tweak,
it is a fundamental redesign of
its existing Masterfil range of
filling machines that will deliver
a bespoke machine in the
same time and cost range as a
standard model. Indeed, lead
times over the existing range
have been halved.
Based on a modular design
concept and fully embracing
servo technology, the fillers not
only look completely different,
but also offer performance
benefits in terms of production
rates, cleaning regimens,
changeover times, scaleability,
machine accessibility, and
even the
space
required
for the unit
on a
production
line. It is
also
designed
to make
the range
more
attractive
to markets
outside of the company’s
heartland of toiletries,
chemicals and oils.
For instance, it is thought
that System F will find favour in
pharmaceutical plants as well
The entire pumping rack can be
removed in less than five minutes
Kliklok will demonstrate the
latest versions of its Celox and
Certiwrap C150 machines
which now have a choice of
modular infeed options as well
as improved operator interface
and HMI capabilities.
The C150’s infeed system
can be customised to suit a
as food manufacturing sites.
Sales director at Adelphi
Dean Willis is confident
that the new machine
will meet customer
demands. “The servo
intelligence enables the
machine to be a stripped
down option but
with a host of
diagnostic benefits
not currently
offered,” he tells
Machinery Update. “And
cutting our lead times in
half will certainly bring a
smile to our
customers faces.”
Adelphi managing director
Dan Smith agrees.
“Fundamentally, System F is a
modular design capable of
being configured to specific
user requirements without
costly and
time
consuming

development,”
he says.
“Modules
such as the
pumping
system,
product feed,
control system,
drive systems,
frame, conveyor and guarding
can be uniquely specified in
almost any combination.”
Servo driven filling nozzles
enable accurate profiling of
complex containers to
wide range of products and is
designed for the prepared
foods markets where shapes
and sizes are becoming more
popular. At the show, the unit
will be running with twin packs
of dessert pots at up to
150 wraps per minute using a
scroll infeed module.
maximise speeds while
optional fully automated nozzle
adjustment reduces product
changeover times and any
operator error.
Simple accessibility options
such as the product tank
rotating rearwards by 90
degrees means the unit can be
cleaned without operators
balancing on ladders, while the
unobtrusive guarding gives
them a clear view of the whole
filling zone. This means
operators are not tempted to
try and override safety systems
to gain a suitable vantage
point, says Adelphi.
The new filler has certainly
been designed with hygiene in
mind. For instance, all
surfaces are at least 15
degrees off horizontal to
eliminate any unwanted
pooling of liquids; there is
clear access under the

Equipment covers
health and foods
Multivac will be represented on
two exhibition stands –
packaging, process and
automation equipment for food
and industrial products will be
in hall 5 while packaging
solutions for life science and
healthcare will be in hall 17.
A vast range of equipment
will be demonstrated including
an efficient packaging machine
for producing portion packs
while using the least amount of
material possible. Multivac says
it is one of the few suppliers
that can master the use of
particularly wide and long dies
in the thermoforming packaging
arena which is why even at
relatively low cycle rates, a
large number of portion packs
can be produced.
“In some customer projects
we have achieved an output of
approximately 960 portion
packs a minute at just 15
cycles per minute,” explains
Hans-Jürgen Heinrich, product
manager for the systems
division at Multivac.
As well as achieving
maximum output, Multivac’s
cutting technology leads to
reductions in material
consumption. Special
positioning of two cutting tools
one after the other delivers
these reductions.
An extensive range of
services for the life science and
healthcare industries will
include the folding carton
labeller from Multivac Marking
and Inspection which delivers
data handling and track &
trace. The labeller applies a
label to seal the tuck-in flaps of
folding cartons for medicines to
provide tamper evidence while
a data matrix code for
serialisation can be printed on
the tuck-in flap by means of an
integrated printing system.
Also on show will be a
special chamber machine for
packing sterile medical products
in pouches, a traysealer
designed for small pharma
batches and a GMP-compliant
thermoforming machine.

barcode scanners on
multiple lines with speed and
ease, either as the
packaging line using a line
terminal for all lines, or
remotely using either a
simple PC, tablet or even

This cost effective solution
reduces downtime across all
packaging lines as well as
eliminating the risk of coding
and packaging errors.
Benefits include increased
speed and reliability of line
set-up, reduced job
changeover time, reduced
risk of human error and the

Hygiene benchmarks set
Multipond will launch its
J-Generation of weighers
which are designed to set new
industry standards. It will also
debut a combination weigher
that is designed to set hygiene
benchmarks in the industry
worldwide.
Representing a complete
overhaul of its range, the
entire structural design, from
the frame to the monitor
holder to the hopper of the
J-Generation has been
revamped and redeveloped
and now meets the toughest
hygiene regulations
worldwide. And this new
weigher generation is simple
to clean as it has no double
surfaces, gaps, dead space
or cavities.
All weigh cells in the new
weigher generation include a
patented, magnetic fieldcontrolled
impact pulse
reduction mechanism called
‘MAGiiR’. This reduces the
measured value recording time
by up to 30%, thereby providing
more hoppers for the
combination function. In
conjunction with the now
established, adaptive filters,
measured value recording
times are reduced by up to 60%.
As a result, weigher
systems with fewer heads can
be used and higher cycle
rates can be achieved, says
the company.
A complete control and
operating unit called ‘BDE-14’
is designed to make it simpler
to operate and its design
means training time for
operators is reduced.
The new intelligent weigher
control enables problems to
be recognised and resolved
with the weigher’s adaptive
characteristics.
Another feature of the new
J-Generation is the patented
‘Argus-01’ camera, a
3D-camera that records more
precisely product distribution
on the distribution cone and
the feed trays, thereby
enabling a controlled predistribution
to the feed
hoppers. Product build ups or
gaps are detected as soon as
they occur and appropriate
countermeasures are initiated.

head section of the TLM
machine is a visible indication

Schubert originally placed the
control cabinet when

Fizz out-performs
rest of the market
It’s been a mixed bag of a

volume growth. Indeed, this
12 page feature includes a
piece on how Veuve Clicquot
has invested in new equipment
to make its French winery
more efficient (page 54).
As for soft drinks, bottled
water was a star performer
and its growth took over from
sports & energy drinks as the
fastest growing product in the
soft drinks category.
It seems that our tastes are
getting more expensive in
spirits and we’re prepared to
pay for better quality cider,
too. And we’re drinking more
world and craft beers than we
have in previous years.
With microbrewing enjoying
a UK boom, it is small-pack
premium bottled ales for the
off-trade that are seeing much
growth, according to industry
association SIBA. This means
craft brewers are seeking
coding and marking solutions
which can keep up with
quickly changing demands,
such as short runs or different
pack formats, says Linx
Printing Technology.
Versatility and portability was
the key purchasing factor for
one craft brewer who invested
in a Linx CJ400 continuous ink

New equipment for smaller

Making drinks stand
out from the crowds
Two companies represented by ShrinkPack
have supplied packaging solutions to drinks
brands wanting to stand out
from the crowd – one for a
cleverly-shaped stand
up pouch, the other
for a personalised
shrink sleeve
application.
Barcelona-based
Bossar Packaging has
developed a specially
shaped solution to
pack ground coffee
and tea leaves – a
‘coffee-pot’ shaped
stand up pouch. The
pouch comes with an
integral filter, zipper
closure system and
corner valve insertion
for pouring the freshly
brewed coffee and tea.
This pouch is made
of high barrier flexible
materials coupled with easy opening and
reclosing features to allow hot water to be
poured into the pouch
and subsequently
reclosed. The pouch
works by allowing hot
water to pass
through the filter
containing the ground
coffee or tea leaves,
and the fresh coffee
or tea is ready to
serve once it is
deposited into the
bottom of the pouch.
The corner valve
can then be opened
and used to pour the
drink in a convenient
and practical way,
says ShrinkPack’s
Alan Lewis.
The modular model
BMK 2600STU
was used to
manufacture and fill
Customers can change the self adhesive labels
easily to suit the brand of coffee being packed
Shrink sleeves are used to
personalise beverage cans
these pouches. It was redesigned and
adapted for this special application where the
pouch is formed
from four
independent reels.
In operation, the
special filter material
enclosing the ground
coffee or tea is formed,
secondly a reel of high
barrier transparent film
forms the stand up
gusset section and the
remaining two films form
the front and back face.
A specially designed
unwinder section for
multiple reels with
independent tension
control enables the
synchronised sealing
of all four films.
The front and back
face of the pouch has
self adhesive labelling
units located after the unwinder to apply
self adhesive labels to the front and back
pouch faces.
Downstream from the unwinding section,
the bottom of the bag, the filter and both
faces of the pouch are brought together and
sealed, the zipper is inserted, then a die cut
and a spout are also inserted to create
the final pack.
Meanwhile, Karlville has supplied a
Sleevepro shrink sleeve application line with
a Steamer steam tunnel to a German
company who applies very short run, digitally
printed shrink sleeves to beverage cans.
Tintag allows its clients to interact in all parts
of the shrink sleeve label design to create a
truly personalised beverage (check it out at:
www.tintag.de) that can be an energy drink,
water or even a beer.
Market interest in personalised packaging
has escalated dramatically in the last year
which probably follows the high profile and

that ran last summer.

future innovations. The biggest automation
players in the market took part in a oneyear
Early Supplier Involvement (ESI)
evaluation.
“The technical requirements for the new
automation solution were very high,”
explains Isabelle Maillot, vice president of
product innovation at Sidel. “During the
ESI evaluation, B&R offered the most
suitable solutions, with autonomous
ACOPOSmulti servo drives that were able
Fewer heating modules and lamps in the oven
results in up to 45% reduced consumption
and approximately 15% less heating time
The Sidel Matrix Combi brings together all the Sidel expertise in an integrated blow-fill-cap solution
to fully satisfy our requirements for
accuracy and speed.
“These criteria were essential for
implementing the enhanced new functions
our customers were looking for,” she says.
Succesful evaluation
“B&R’s solutions scored successfully
among 80 criteria of the ESI evaluation,”
adds global sourcing manager David
Dumouchel, “and easily met our most
stringent requirements. Moreover, a
selection of 90 different B&R models
covers the needs of the whole range of
Sidel Matrix machines.”
The hard real-time capabilities of the
POWERLINK network protocol, the high
performance of the Automation PC – which
allows seamless processing of both control
and HMI tasks on the same hardware
platform – as well as the exceptional level
of integration achieved with the Automation
Studio development tool were decisive
factors in Sidel’s choice to equip the new
Sidel Matrix machines with B&R systems,
believes Simon Goodwin, general
manager of B&R in the UK.
To support Sidel in this new challenge,
B&R assembled dedicated teams for
training, testing and support in every
country where Sidel has production
facilities. The relationship between the
Sidel and B&R teams evolved quickly as
they collaborated to bring all of B&R’s
innovative technologies to the Sidel
machines. “With B&R always available for
support and advice, Sidel retained full
control of the machine development
project and ensured that every line of code
was written by Sidel engineers,” explains
Goodwin. “This guarantees that Sidel’s
technical staff has all the knowledge
necessary to provide support, optimise
processes and quickly develop new
machine options on demand,” he says.
For Sidel, another aspect of providing its
customers optimal service was to make
the new machines as easy as possible to
maintain. The System Diagnostics
Manager (SDM) tool that comes integrated

in each B&R X20 PLC gives
Sidel easy access to detailed
status information about each
and every axis and I/O channel
on its machines, either locally or
remotely. Since SDM can be
used in any web browser, Sidel
Matrix users don’t need a
special software tool or extra
training to perform diagnostics.
When it came to the Sidel
Matrix design, Sidel divided the
machines into smart mechatronic
modules. The high performance
of POWERLINK and the embedded
openSAFETY protocol ensures seamless
communication of both functional and
safety data between all automation and
drive components, both within individual
modules and across the entire bottling line.
Modular approach
Thanks to this modular approach,
Sidel teams based in Octeville, France,
and Parma, Italy, were able to develop the
blowing and the filling
modules independently,
resulting in a combined
solution. At the
equipment level, the
modules interact
through standardised
interfaces. This allows
each of them to evolve
separately and still
come together
seamlessly, bringing
new levels of
performance to market
significantly faster.
“The cooperation
between the Sidel and
B&R technical teams
was a key factor in the
success of the Matrix
project,” explains
Thierry Deau, manager
of automation
innovation at Sidel. “With the help of the
local B&R teams, we have made the B&R
technology our own, and in this way, we
can take full advantage of its distinctive
features and pass on all the added value
to our customers.”
With the PLC and motion simulation
tools provided in B&R’s Automation Studio
development environment, Sidel was able
to develop and test the new machines
largely in the comfort of the office.

The Krones third generation of its Contiform machine series is operated
using a customised panel from B&R Automation
The Combi Matrix from Sidel is
designed ot handle lightweight PET
containers at high speed
Nevertheless, the bottling line
manufacturer tested critical functions over
millions of cycles on actual machines to
ensure maximum reliability.
And B&R worked closely with Krones
when it developed the third generation of
its Contiform series of PET stretch blow
moulding machine.
This machine features excellent
production output, increased precision and
freedom in the stretch-forming process,
while still reducing power
consumption significantly.
The bottling specialist
achieved this
development leap by
switching from pneumatic
and belt drives to an
electric direct drive
solution and an integrated
drive solution based on
B&R technology.
With up to 36 blow
moulding stations, the
Contiform 336 rotary
stretch blow moulding
machine can achieve an
output of 81,000 PET
containers an hour.
The bottle preforms are
heated to a temperature
of 100 to 120deg C in
an infrared linear oven
and then guided by a
starwheel into the aluminium blow mould.
As soon as the mould closes, a stretch
rod is inserted in the neck of the preform to
stretch it axially while applying up to 40 bar
of blowing pressure. This presses the sides
of the preform against the interior wall of
the mould to shape the bottle, which is
then collected by an output starwheel.
This method is used to produce about
300 billion bottles per year. “With this
number growing rapidly, bottling plants are
special feature
demanding more and more
performance from their
machines but all this
performance must not come
at the expense of
sustainability,” says
B&R’s Goodwin.
With this revamp of the
Contiform series, the main
challenge was balancing the
top priorities of maximum
output with minimum power
consumption.
To achieve this jump, the
engineering team replaced the belt drives
with direct drives and used torque motors
that provide up to 2,300 Nm of torque.
Servo Drive Control
These motors are controlled using Krones’
SDC (Servo Drive Control) solution based
on B&R technology, which the company
has used across multiple divisions for over
five years. The SDC solution allows an
unlimited number of axes to be coupled via
POWERLINK in a wide range of
topologies. The inverters come from
B&R’s ACOPOSmulti series, with an
X20 CPU acting as the controller.
The great leap in performance seen in
the new Contiform generation isn’t
explained by the torque motors alone. Only
by combining this innovation with the move
from pneumatic to electromagnetic control
of the stretch system were the Krones
engineers in a position to achieve the
output required. In place of pneumatic
drives, tubular linear motors now control
the movement of the stretch rods in the
blow stations.
The motor was designed for operation
on a standard three-phase ACOPOS
drive from B&R with a DC bus voltage of
800 V. The B&R ACOPOSdrive also
evaluates and linearises the signal from
the Hall sensor.
Krones says the programming involved
here is not to be underestimated.
For the inverters controlling the linear
motors, Krones selected B&R’s
ACOPOSremote with IP65 protection
together with a B&R X20 CPU to provide
control for the blowing module. To
provide valve control and monitor the
blowing pressure, IP67 I/O modules are
connected to the controller’s second
POWERLINK interface.

Cask labelling
gets automated
Independent Wiltshire brewers Wadworth has automated its
cask labelling operations at the Victorian tower brewery in
Devizes with the installation of a 400 series print and apply
labeller from Logopak. It is part of Wadworth’s commitment to
combining a tradition of craft with modern production techniques.
This 410 TK keg/cask labeller replaces a manual labelling
operation, increasing efficiency and ensuring accurate label
application. The 410 prints and applies two label sizes onto
multiple products – including two cask sizes – at speeds of up to
six casks a minute.
An on-board library of product data accommodating multiple
template designs is stored on the labeller with each being
recalled using a large touch screen display. Each label template
is displayed on this screen to help operators.
Variable data such as shelf life, production date, Julian date
codes and best before dates are automatically calculated and
printed on the label.
The labeller is supplied in a stainless steel enclosure with
pneumatic trap-door to protect it from the harsh production
environment in the brewery. This, says Logopak, helps to ensure
the 10-15 year lifespan that is synonymous with Logopak products.

Printhead reduces downtime
Britvic UK has implemented Videojet’s
new 1620 UHS, CLARiSOFT and
CLARiNET software to increase
production line speed by 30 metres
a minute at its Rugby beverage
manufacturing facility.
The advantage of the new Videojet
1620 UHS is that it is over 40% faster
than its existing printers, allowing
operators greater flexibility to run
faster or print more content,
increasing the line speed by 25% to
150 metres a minute and increasing
the size of the print character from
7x4 to 7x5, and all without
compromising print quality.
The integrated core consolidates the
printer’s key ink system components into
one part, enabling the 1620 UHS to
perform up to 14,000 hours between
planned maintenance or approximately
19 months for around the clock
operations. Core replacement is simple,
mess-free and is designed to be
customer-replaceable without necessarily
requiring a visit from a trained technician.

Rugby site following the installation
“We now choose to clean the
printhead once a week at a
convenient time when there is no
pressure from the line being down,”
explains Paul Ash, maintenance
technician at Britvic UK. “Due to high
print makeup and ink volumes, ink
lasts three to four days, maybe more
and there is no mess.”
The 1620 UHS printer codes in
excess of 23 million codes at the soft
drinks site, all produced without the
printhead requiring a clean. With a
patented CleanFlow printhead
design, the printer provides maximum
uptime with minimal maintenance.
Reducing the ink build-up that can

Meeting micro demand
Leading bottling and packaging equipment supplier Krones is just at home meeting the needs of micro
breweries as it is supplying ‘big’ brewing technology and this flexibility is reaping rewards for the business
The trend towards craft beers shows how
many consumers are ready to reward
individualised product concepts, says
Krones, so flexibility in the production
process is an imperative.
Learning the lessons from ‘big’ brewing
technology and using them for making
speciality beers in small batches, Krones
has developed the CombiCube system.
It is designed for smaller breweries with
up to 250,000 hectolitres of beer and
ones that handle a diverse range of types
and seasonal products. However, large
industrial-scale breweries can also use
this system to brew small batches of their
speciality beers, or as a pilot installation
or a mobile brewery.
This modular system permits a
customised design configuration and can
be expanded easily. The type and
number of vessels can be selected to suit
individual requirements. Krones believes
that with CombiCube, breweries have an
option for making top quality products
using different brewing processes and
high volume variance.
The three ‘cubes’ are the CombiCube B
brewhouse, the CombiCube C cellarage
unit and the CombiCube F filter. And all
score well in terms of high energy
efficiency, thanks in part to the use of
frequency-controlled motors and
Evoguard valves for minimised
compressed air consumption. Also, a high
level of media-efficiency is assured due to
low consumption of primary energy and
water, plus reduced cleaning
consumption levels and
times.

This CombiCube brewhouse is one of three cubes designed for smaller breweries

says Krones, makes it the ideal choice
for small and mid-tier breweries or
beverage bottlers.
The new Barifill series of fillers from
Kosme, with its flexibility, its quick and
easy format changeovers and its
enhanced operator friendliness ensures
optimum quality for all filling operations.
The field-proven, electro-pneumatically
controlled VKP filling

assures a fast process
without any fobbing,
thus preserving the
product’s original quality.
To facilitate dispatch,
erection, maintenance
and cleaning, the base

base provides other
advantages for the
operator in terms of

Handling is stress-free
Veuve Clicquot has achieved higher
speeds while ensuring the presentation of
its champagne is not impaired during
automatic cartoning by installing a special
‘stress-free’ system from Schubert at its
winery in Rheims, France.
The system packs 75 cl bottles into two
different box sizes – the smaller box
contains two cardboard inserts holding
three bottles each while the larger design
has space for four inserts.
“We now package our champagne with
higher output and flexibility,” explains
Henri Darré, technical director at the
French winery.
The TLM system achieves an output of
150 bottles a minute and has replaced a
mono-format system with an output of
100 bottles a minute. It consists of eight
sub-machines and integrates a product
belt for the incoming bottles, a
transmodule section for the boxes and
another section for the carton inserts.
A TLM-F3 robot removes two flat
blanks for the carton inserts from the
magazine and transfers them to a
TLM-F2 which erects them and places
them into the size plate of the waiting
transmodule. The tool fixes the carton
inserts without using glue.
After the TLM-F2 has placed
two more carton inserts,
the transmodule
starts and
connects to
The larger of
the two box
formats
contains twelve
bottles
The transmodules on the left transport the boxes, the transmodules in the centre transport the
carton inserts and the product belt on the right moves the champagne bottles
the transmodule group. This group now
moves as a chain whose speed is
controlled by the product flow for the
‘pick-and-place’ process.
Following the proven counterdirectional
running principle, the bottles
reach the picker stations from the
opposite direction. Photocells detect their
position on the product belt and then six
four-axle TLM-F4 robots pick up the
bottles individually, tilt them by 90
degrees horizontally and place them in
the carton inserts in the required
alignment – ‘head to foot’.
The TLM system arranges the bottle
formations in the carton insert without
using a grouping chain. This process
differs fundamentally from conventional
solutions which translates to significant
advantages in protecting the
product, says Schubert. This is
because the mechanical
system of a grouping chain
can stress the products.
Schubert prevented this
potential hazard to the elegant
bottle cover by using the TLM-F44
picker stations for Veuve Clicquot. In
addition, the tools of the TLM-F4 are
constructed in such a way that the
suction surface avoids the label. There is
also no longer impact or direct contact
during the rest of the process to ensure
that the champagne leaves the machine
in the same condition it was fed in.
Carton inserts are filled with bottles and then
are placed in the boxes
Moving transmodules one after another
is just one of the many possibilities offered
by the patented TLM components. Each of
the single-axle robots can move on the rail
section autonomously which means the
packaging processes can be easily
decoupled, such as for Veuve Clicquot.
Another key benefit of the transmodule
is that it allows for a smaller machine
design – this system is only 3 metres wide.

With its twin-column, high performance Innopal
PB1NF palletiser, KHS is giving the beverage,
food and non-food industries a new single-station
palletising machine with level compensation that
processes up to 500 layers per hour. And, as it
has a low-level pack feed this performance
becomes extra special, says KHS.
The reason this machine can work so fast is
that there is a cross conveyor built into the front
end of the palletiser which can be opened.
A barrier construction is used in place of the
previously used integrated bar construction. This
means that after placing the last layer onto the
pallet the cross conveyor no longer has to be
raised and then wait there until the finished
pallet has been discharged from the system.
Instead, the cross conveyor can travel down to
table level before and the new layer picked up
during the change of pallet which considerably
increases the palletising speed.
The Innopal PB1NF also has all the benefits
associated with a low-level pack feed on
palletisers. One of these is that neither a platform
nor inclined or spiral conveyor are needed which
has the advantage of reducing investment costs
and providing excellent accessibility and thus
greater ease of operation.
Upstream of the Innopal PB1NF palletiser, a
KHS inline robot grouping can be used where
two four-axis Innopal RK4 robots prepare the
layers with precision. The big plus here is that
pack manipulation elements, such as turning
stations, are not needed. Besides cutting costs
as a result, other benefits for the customer
compared to conventional systems are extremely
gentle pack handling, great flexibility, reduced
space requirements, less maintenance and fast
changeovers.

Vision reduces line stoppages
A vision system developed by Olmec UK
is checking that the correct beer kegs
are present in the correct orientation
on the filling lines at Molson Coors
brewery.
The system inspects the special filling
tube in the top of the keg, known
as the spear, to determine whether
the keg can proceed for
sterilisation and filling. About 2.5%
line stoppages are directly
attributable to attempting to fill the
wrong keg types, since trying to fit
a particular filling head to the
wrong spear can cause significant
damage.
Introducing the vision system
has reduced this figure to 0.5%.
Molson’s filling line is used for a
wide variety of brands and
therefore many different keg types
are used. A GigE vision camera
with red ring light illumination is
positioned above the filling line to image
the tops of the kegs as they pass by.
Since there are several different keg
diameters, the system is set up to record

Controlling cheese cuts
Newtech has updated its extruded cheese cutting equipment with an open-architecture machine automation
controller from Omron, resulting in a range of benefits to itself and end users alike
When Newtech decided to
bring its code development
operations in-house, its control
engineer was keen to explore
the latest technologies
available, which led to a
complete review of the control
technology it used.
“We were looking for a
controller that could offer ease
of programmability as well as
a modern, compact design to
help us enhance our product
offering,” explains sales
manager at Newtech Phil
Waters. “We were also looking
for reliability and, having
worked with Omron for over
10 years, we felt comfortable
with the quality and reliability
of its products.
“We needed a programming
environment that would allow
for fast configuration,
programming and offline
simulation, owing to the tight
delivery timescales demanded
by many of our customers and
Omron’s Sysmac NJ controller
offered us all of this,” he
explains.
The Sysmac NJ, which
forms part of the Sysmac
automation platform, provides
synergy with the whole Omron
range of Sysmac devices,
including the variable speed
drives, servos and remote
input/output systems used by
Omron’s controller
provides accurate
and consistent
product handling
The control panel detailing the Sysmac NJ controller from Omron
Newtech in its cutting
machines. The decision to
update the controller to a
Sysmac NJ therefore also
offered the company a good
foundation for more of its
future control systems to be
based upon the Sysmac NJ,
allowing it to benefit from the
openness and synergy
between the machine
components.
‘clever things’
In essence, says Alan Smith,
field application engineer for
Omron Electronics, the
Sysmac NJ allows Newtech to
do a lot more ‘clever things’
with its machines. One of the
main features of the controller
that Newtech liked was its
single programming
environment. Traditionally,
there has been a need to use
multiple programmes for
different systems but
the Sysmac Studio
programming
environment
features
just one
embedded
system with a
programming
environment that allows you to
link together all the various
control architectures.
“This greatly simplifies the
programming operation,
increasing application
development productivity and
helping to speed up time to
market for new product
developments,” says Smith.
“The NJ controller is a truly
open system, using the high
speed EtherCAT network to
link to a huge range of
devices,” he continues. It also
runs PLCopen motion function
blocks, and adheres to the
commonly used IEC 61131
industrial control programming
standard. Smith believes that
because the controller uses
these open technologies that
are driven by end users and
widely employed through
industry, a control engineer
should immediately understand
the technologies, making
migration to the new controller
easy. The resulting code
should also be more reliable,
better structured, and therefore
more readable, which means
lower maintenance costs
throughout the life of the
machine it is controlling.
The first cutting machine in
the Newtech range to benefit
from the control upgrade was
the Autosonic-E machine which
is designed to accurately and
consistently cut extruded
cheese products. “The
simplicity of the Sysmac Studio
programming environment
enabled us to design,
programme, implement and
test the machine within just a
few weeks and helped us to
ensure delivery of the machine
within the customer’s tight
timescale of only nine weeks,”
says Waters.
Communication
Communication between the
robot and the Sysmac NJ is
via the DeviceNet protocol.
“We use DeviceNet because it
is a well-defined protocol used
extensively in the industry – it
is compatible with most control
devices offering seamless
communication,” said Waters.
Omron is also able to
provide local support across
the globe. “This is a good
selling point for us, in light of
the fact that the first of our new
Autosonic-E machines was
destined for Tasmania. It is an
added benefit that we can now
offer a machine with remote
diagnostics and troubleshooting
features. We can connect to
equipment anywhere in the
world, via the internet, from our
offices in the UK.”
Newtech believes that the
remote diagnostic capabilities
will give it a real competitive
advantage, because many
food producers are not as
self-sufficient – in terms of
engineering support – as some
other manufacturing sectors.

Drives and motors
get a new network
ABB has amalgamated its UK
variable speed drives and
electric motors networks into a
single brand identity, to create
a new benchmark for technical
advice, delivery, life cycle
services and overall customer
satisfaction.
The former ABB Drives
Alliance and ABB Motor Service
Partner networks are now part
of the Authorised Value
Provider programme, a global
initiative that over time will
encompass more third party
companies selling other
products from the ABB portfolio.
The Authorised Value
Provider network is designed
to raise the bar in sales,
support and services for drives
and motors across the UK,
providing technical expertise,
product and service availability
all under one recognisable,
local branch structure. It
extends across the entire life
cycle of both products by
providing services such as
energy and productivity
appraisals, installation, start-up
and preventive maintenance.
“The Authorised Value
ABB Authorised Value Providers at the launch event in London
Provider programme marks the
growth of the already successful
ABB channel network into a
bigger, better, stronger one; a
network that is designed to meet
the rapidly changing
requirements of global business
by providing consistent access
to ABB products and services,”
says Neil Ritchie, local business
unit manager for ABB’s drives
and controls business.
ABB has identified several
reasons why its network needs
to evolve including greater
customer demand for
outsourcing, increased interest
in packaged solutions,
widening legislations,

Is it fixed or is it not?
Any machine that has EMC sensitive electrical or electronic components must meet the requirements of the
EMC Directive, unless they are fixed installations. Paul Laidler explains what constitutes a fixed installation
To comply with the Machinery
Directive, any machine that has
EMC sensitive electrical or
electronic components must
meet the requirements of the
EMC Directive (2004/108/EC)
and the only machines not
subjected to this conformity
assessment are fixed
installations.
However, while fixed
installations are excluded from
some of the requirements of the
EMC Directive, and are not
assessed by testing to
harmonised standards, they must
still meet the essential protection
requirements. They must also be
installed applying good
engineering practices, which
have to be documented and the
documentation held by the
‘designated Responsible
Person’, who remains
responsible for the installation for
as long as it is in operation.
One key area of confusion is
what actually constitutes a
fixed installation.
Fixed installation
The European Commission’s
Guide for the EMC Directive
2004/108/EC (February 8, 2010)
defines a fixed installation as “a
particular combination of several
types of apparatus and, where
applicable, other devices, which
are assembled, installed and
intended to be used permanently
at a predefined location”. The
guide goes on to state that ‘fixed
installation’ is thus an allencompassing
term that applies
to all electrical installations that
have been constructed with the
intention of being permanent.
The guide also states that the
term ‘fixed installation’ also
applies to large machines, such
as production lines. This is where
many manufacturers and owners
of machinery fall down as they
presume that they have a fixed
installation and therefore are
exempt from the requirements
of the EMC Directive.
Often the presumption is that if
machinery is screwed to the floor
it can be considered a fixed
installation. However, if such a
machine, or assembly of
machines into a production line,
is moved and modified at any
time, it ceases to become a
fixed installation.
Misunderstanding
It is therefore very rare that
something that is presumed to be
a fixed installation actually is and
we regularly see this
misunderstanding when we
make site visits. For example, a
machine that is part of the fabric
of a building, such as a power
press (where the foundations of
the building have been adapted),
would be considered a fixed
installation, but more common
assembly lines, which can be
reconfigured at any time are not.
The Provision and Use of
Work Equipment Regulations
1998 (PUWER) describes what
an employer needs to do to
protect employees in the
workplace. Section 10 states that
“every employer shall ensure that
an item of work equipment has
been designed and constructed
in compliance with any essential
requirements”.
For machinery owners, they
must ensure that the equipment
which their employees use is
EMC compliant. For example, if
the control system of a machine
experiences electromagnetic
interference it may malfunction
and create a dangerous situation.
Conversely, if the electrical and
electronic systems fitted to a
machine generate a high level of
What constitutes a fixed installation is confusing and requires action
interference, it may also cause
other equipment nearby to
malfunction.
The Health and Safety
Executive considers that “if it is
reasonably practicable to carry
out testing for immunity to
electromagnetic disturbances,
then the Health & Safety at Work
Act requires that such testing is
carried out. Testing would only be
considered as not being
‘reasonably practicable’ if the
costs of testing were grossly
disproportionate to the resulting
reduction in risk”.
Best practice
Despite what EMC compliance
is, or is not, required for true
fixed installations, the reality is
that these machines could still
electromagnetically interfere or
be interfered with by other
machinery, potentially creating
a health and safety hazard.
A best practice approach
would be to err on the side of
caution and conduct onsite
pre-compliance EMC tests for
machinery, even if it could
possibly fall within the fixed
installation definition. While full
compliance is not required, such
test results would prove a
machine is not giving out
electromagnetic interference, nor
is it susceptible to such.
For manufacturers of
machinery, they may wish to
consider the independent support
of a Notified Body to prove due
diligence. For most machinery,
the Responsible Person (the
manufacturer or their authorised
representative) can self-certify a
product’s conformity. However,
for higher risk machinery, the
Responsible Person has to follow
a different conformity assessment
procedure that requires the direct
involvement of an accredited
Notified Body to verify
independently the product’s
compliance and in some cases
the manufacturer’s quality and
manufacturing system.

sizes, but especially larger SMEs
where the capital equipment
could make a profound
difference to winning contracts.
Companies in non-auto sectors,
who are unfamiliar with the
range, capability and simplicity of
automation kit, need and deserve
to know what automation options
are available.
In 2013 it is a business risk not to be
informed about the benefits this
