Mark Williamson<br />
CHAIRMAN PPMA GROUP OF ASSOCIATIONS<br />
(INCORPORATING PPMA, BARA AND UKIVA)<br />
In the July/August issue of this magazine I highlighted that<br />
it was the largest ever summer edition. Just a few months later,<br />
and as I review the recent PPMA Show, it is fantastic to report<br />
that this annual exhibition was the largest in over 12 years in<br />
terms of floor space and exhibiting companies. Footfall was<br />
also up with more visitors than the previous year, and many<br />
exhibitors praising the quality of contacts and discussions<br />
taking place during the event.<br />
This confirms the results of a customer survey I commissioned<br />
at my day job at Stemmer Imaging which highlighted that<br />
personal, face-to-face contact is valued as the most important<br />
way of communicating for forging strong business relationships.<br />
In the machinery world, I believe it will be a long, long time<br />
before events such as the PPMA Show are replaced by the<br />
internet alone. If you missed the show, a full review of just some<br />
of the equipment launched starts on page 29 of this issue.<br />
It’s been another record-breaking<br />
year for the PPMA Group as it<br />
continues to add value for members<br />
On the first night of the show, we held the annual PPMA Group<br />
awards dinner. This year the PPMA strengthened the independent<br />
judging panel and award review process to make them even<br />
more robust. We have included three pages dedicated to these<br />
awards which highlight innovation and the outstanding business<br />
performance of our members (see pages 10, 12 and 13).<br />
At the gala dinner, I talked about the PPMA celebrating its<br />
30th year in business. Back in the founding year – 1987 – a pint<br />
of lager was just 92p. As a country, we were trying to forge<br />
a better relationship with Europe by giving the go ahead for<br />
the Channel Tunnel to be built. Thirty years on and we are<br />
negotiating Brexit. How times change!<br />
However, in the PPMA’s 30th year the association has achieved<br />
another record by breaking the 500-member barrier, a clear sign<br />
that the need for manufacturers to automate has never been<br />
greater in the relentless drive for efficiency, quality and consistent<br />
products. This issue we feature news of processing and packaging<br />
machinery for the pharmaceutical industry, a market that is<br />
synonymous with demanding high quality products (the feature<br />
starts on page 42). This sector has always strived to achieve high<br />
standards in processing, packaging, automation and inspection<br />
solutions and is a great example of how far these technologies<br />
have progressed since our formation, thirty years’ ago. n<br />
Rulmeca offers a comprehensive range of high<br />
quality rollers and components for conveyors,<br />
constructed from aluminium, mild steel, stainless<br />
steel and high resistance technopolymers.<br />
Rulmeca drum motors provide the ideal drive<br />
solution for belt conveyors and associated material<br />
handling equipment. They are versatile, energy<br />
efficient and hermetically sealed for hygienic<br />
operations and wash-down applications<br />
(IP66/IP69) in food processing, packing operations<br />
and logistics.<br />

event. The family-owned business,<br />
now in its third generation,<br />
looked back on the company’s<br />
beginnings and growth with the<br />
support of its 800 employees.<br />
The company covers all of<br />
the process steps from milk to<br />
packaged cheese with a high<br />
degree of automation. “Thanks<br />
to our engineering technologies<br />
and turnkey solutions for every<br />
aspect of dairy production, we now<br />
operate on five continents,” said<br />
md Gisbert Strohn. The company<br />

Japan as well as in India.<br />
Biggest PPMA Show<br />
for over a decade<br />
was a must-see event<br />
Over 7,500 visitors from<br />
the food, drinks,<br />
pharmaceuticals,<br />
chemicals and fmcg sectors<br />
were at the PPMA Show in<br />

visitors from the co-located<br />
shows Interplas <strong>2017</strong>, TCT<br />
Show <strong>2017</strong> and Sensors and<br />
Instrumentation.<br />
Greeting them at the PPMA<br />
Show were 350 international<br />
exhibitors representing<br />
1,500 companies in hall 5<br />
of the NEC, Birmingham.<br />
Reflecting on the success of<br />
the <strong>2017</strong> event, PPMA Group<br />
ceo Andrew Mint said:<br />
“The fact the PPMA Show <strong>2017</strong><br />
celebrated its biggest event of<br />
the past 12 years is testament to<br />
the strength of the processing<br />
and packaging industry.<br />
“From the innovation found<br />
across the exhibition floor<br />
to the thought leadership<br />
displayed on the Learning<br />
Hub stage and the incredible<br />
achievements of companies<br />
Visitors flocked to the 3-day show<br />
in the PPMA Group Industry<br />
Awards, it is evident UK<br />
manufacturing is showing<br />
no signs of slowing down,”<br />
he told Machinery Update.<br />
Next year’s event takes<br />
place in hall 5 of the NEC,<br />
Birmingham from Tuesday 25<br />
– Thursday 27, September.<br />

Made Smarter Review<br />
predicts bright future<br />
for manufacturers<br />
Britain’s manufacturing<br />
sector could create thousands<br />
of jobs if it embraces the<br />
fourth industrial revolution<br />
according to a government<br />
commissioned review on<br />
industrial digitalisation<br />
published as Machinery<br />
Update went to press.<br />
Called the Made Smarter<br />
Review <strong>2017</strong>, the report was<br />
led by Jürgen Maier, the UK<br />
and Ireland ceo of Siemens.<br />
The 246-page document brings<br />
together the views and input<br />
from over 200 companies and<br />
organisations and its proposals<br />
include help for SMEs in<br />
adopting fourth industrial<br />
revolution technologies as well<br />
as plans to upskill one million<br />
UK industrial workers. Maier<br />
said the combined package<br />
of measures will boost UK<br />
growth and productivity in<br />
manufacturing and provide<br />
increased earning potential.<br />
The government will now<br />
consider the proposals and the<br />
publication of a white paper is<br />
expected before Christmas.<br />

PPMA Group Industry Awards <strong>2017</strong><br />
Celebrating outstanding<br />
industry achievements<br />
This year’s PPMA Group Industry Awards were presented on the first night of the PPMA Show in<br />
Birmingham and on this page we highlight the winners of the two individual awards,<br />
while the following pages feature nine further winners in the other categories<br />
Comedian Stuart Francis and Sky Sports’ Hayley McQueen were the hosts<br />
Chairman of the PPMA Group Mark Williamson welcomed guests to the<br />
awards that took place at the National Motorcycle Museum in Birmingham<br />
The Apprentice of the Year award recognises emerging talent within the<br />
processing and packaging, robotics and automation and industrial vision<br />
industries and was presented by Eliza Rawlings, general manager of award<br />
sponsor Festo UK. Winning this award in a hard-fought category was Jake<br />
Martin of Yorkshire Packaging Systems. Unfortunately, Jake couldn’t be at<br />
the awards ceremony and so we have pictured him at his workplace.<br />
Jake was described at the ceremony as an eager, committed, hard-working<br />
person with an excellent working attitude. He shows leadership skills and<br />
demonstrates real added value to the company as the impressive customer<br />
feedback about him being testimony to his success.<br />
Highly commended in this category was Tobias Cowan from HepcoMotion.<br />
The Outstanding Achievement award is given to one manufacturing<br />
professional who has made an exceptional contribution to the industry<br />
over the years. This year, David Norris of DC Norris was presented with<br />
his accolade by the PPMA Group ceo Dr Andrew Mint for his commitment<br />
and passion for the industry and quality of manufacturing, helping to grow<br />
his company from humble beginnings to the multi-million pound global<br />
enterprise it is, today.<br />
Norris has been at the forefront of the food processing industry for over<br />
45 years and during this time his knowledge and enthusiasm has helped<br />
many clients and colleagues to achieve their goals. He is continually striving<br />
to take the company to new levels and has an incredible gift for design<br />
and engineering. Because of this drive, the company has achieved many<br />
accolades and won numerous large contracts with leading food producers<br />
all around the world.<br />
“I’m lost for words; it’s unbelievable to have won this prestigious award,”<br />
he said on the night. “But it also feels like the beginning for DC Norris as we<br />
still have more to conquer with our team of fantastic people.”

Stretch blow moulder is<br />
an energy saving option<br />
Industrial washing<br />
robot is a robust<br />
automotive option<br />
Fanuc UK has unveiled its latest<br />
industrial robot developed<br />
specifically for industrial washing<br />
applications.<br />
The robust and flexible<br />
R-2000iC/210WE is capable of<br />
withstanding high pressure loads<br />
and forces, with a maximum<br />
payload of 210kg. Its outer<br />
coating and oil-equipped reducers<br />
prevent corrosion from water,<br />
detergent or mechanical stress,<br />
and the robot is waterproof to<br />
IP67 standard.<br />
The robust nature of the robot<br />
allows it to work, unmanned,<br />
for long periods of time without<br />
interruption. Operators can also<br />
check the status of the robot<br />
via the Teach Pendant, which<br />
minimises the risk of unexpected<br />
downtime or process errors.<br />

W www.fanuc.eu<br />
The latest generation of<br />
Kosme’s KSB R stretch<br />
blow moulders is, says<br />
the company an all-rounder<br />
as these rotary machines are<br />
able to produce containers<br />
with round, oval, square or<br />
rectangular shapes holding<br />
0.1 to 3 litres, suitable for<br />
both still water and carbonated<br />
soft drinks products.<br />
They are each available as<br />
individual machines or blocksynchronised<br />
with a filler and<br />
a labeller.<br />
The new models of KSB<br />
rotary machines can be<br />
delivered with four, six<br />
or seven stations (KSB 4R<br />
to KSB 7R) and include<br />
many improved features.<br />
For instance, even better<br />
assemblies, scoring<br />
particularly well in terms of<br />
their very high station output<br />
are included; a mould quickchange<br />
system and an ultraflexible<br />
electromagnetic<br />
stretching system that<br />
consumes no compressed air<br />
have also been incorporated<br />
in the blow moulding stations.<br />
Indeed, compared with<br />
The infrared linear oven in the new generation machine is energy efficient<br />
their predecessors, these<br />
machines have reduced their<br />
compressed air consumption<br />
by a total of 35%, thanks<br />
primarily to the optimised<br />
Air Wizard Plus compressedair<br />
recovery system and the<br />
further reduction in dead space<br />
volume. This means that<br />
compressed-air savings are<br />
maximised in every cycle.<br />
Meanwhile, the infrared<br />
linear oven also scores highly<br />
in terms of energy efficiency,<br />
since the flexible heating<br />
zone adjustment feature,<br />
together with a small heating<br />
compartment providing<br />
individualised adjustment<br />
options, ensure that the energy<br />
consumption has been reduced<br />
by up to 15%.<br />
The blow moulders also<br />
feature intuitive operator<br />
control, their individual<br />
components are easy to clean,<br />
and are also quickly replaced,<br />
if required.<br />

Version 2 offers more user benefit<br />
Reduced waste as well<br />
as costs for tray users<br />
Data reporting and<br />
analysis software<br />
has been updated<br />
In response to feedback from<br />
food processors, manufacturers<br />
and packers, Loma Systems<br />
has launched Version 2 of its<br />
TRACS (Trending-Reporting-<br />
Analysis-Capture-Software)<br />
data reporting and analysis<br />
software. Designed to further<br />
reduce manufacturing costs and<br />
improve production efficiencies,<br />
the new graphical network-based<br />
tool monitors the performance<br />
of the company’s full range of<br />
inspection equipment and offers<br />
better functionality, reporting<br />
and overall user experience.<br />
Like its predecessor, Version 2<br />
of TRACS has been developed in<br />
conjunction with long-standing<br />
partner AutoCoding Systems.<br />
It runs over a customer’s factory<br />
network and provides real time<br />
feedback across all lines in a<br />
central format for analysis and<br />
reporting of key measurements<br />
such as giveaway or metal count.<br />

Mondini has launched<br />
a second generation<br />
Platformer machine<br />
that allows customers to<br />
produce their own trays at<br />
much reduced costs than<br />
preformed versions, and from a<br />
range of materials such as rPET<br />
for modified atmosphere and<br />
tray skin sealing applications.<br />
Two models of machine are<br />
currently available: single<br />
lane and twin lane for higher<br />
production speeds.<br />
According to the company,<br />
today’s packaging line<br />
is divided into either<br />
thermoforming or tray sealing<br />
lines but Platformer is billed<br />
as the missing link in this<br />
scenario. “By combining<br />
the Mondini Trave with the<br />
new Platformer, a packaging<br />
line becomes what could be<br />
defined as a thermosealer,<br />
which gives the best of both<br />
worlds,” says Brian Hemsley,<br />
sales director of Mondini in<br />
the UK.<br />
The combination means<br />
users are free to switch from<br />
thermoformed in-line trays<br />
from a reel or premade trays<br />
The new Platformer machine was first introduced by Mondini at interpack<br />
at any moment, according to<br />
production needs. And this<br />
changeover can be achieved in<br />
less than ten minutes as only<br />
two components need to be<br />
altered each time.<br />
“Platformer is a new way of<br />
tray forming as it cuts the tray<br />
footprint before the forming<br />
process occurs,” continues<br />
Hemsley. “This reduces the<br />
scrap to just 1%.”<br />
Whether using trays mode<br />
in-line, or premade versions,<br />
product can be filled either<br />
automatically or manually.<br />

Accurate feeding solution for the growing<br />
demands of continuous pharma processing<br />
At this year’s Powtech<br />

loss-in-weight feeders.<br />
The new K3-PH line of<br />
feeders has been specifically<br />
designed to meet the<br />
growing demands of<br />
continuous processing in the<br />
pharmaceutical industry.<br />
The new feeder design<br />

complete with a much reduced<br />
overall footprint thanks to<br />
a new, smaller D4 platform<br />
scale incorporating the<br />
patented and accurate Smart<br />
Force Transducer weighing<br />
technology. The modular<br />
quick change design allows<br />
the easy exchange of feeder<br />
types and sizes as well as<br />
hoppers or agitators using the<br />
same scale and drive for fast<br />
adaptation to new processes<br />
and formulations while also<br />
ensuring easy cleaning and<br />
maintenance.<br />
This new design is ideal<br />
for multi feeder clustering<br />
in a variety of continuous<br />
processes, including direct<br />
compression, continuous<br />
extrusion, wet and dry<br />
granulation, and continuous<br />
coating, as well as traditional<br />
batch processes.<br />
Modifications include quick<br />
change feeder bowl, agitator<br />
and screw combinations<br />
which can be quickly<br />
decoupled from the feeder<br />
drive to provide for easy and<br />
fast changeover and cleaning.<br />
Meanwhile, the redesign of the<br />
scale from a round design to<br />
a trapezoid design facilitates<br />

project’s specification,<br />
Brillopak decided that the best<br />
way to accomplish the task<br />
was to single pick if possible.<br />
If the punnets could be<br />
individually packed, then<br />
it would solve both the previous<br />
problem with accumulation<br />
(meaning fewer stoppages)<br />
and require less staff.<br />
The retailer would also be<br />
able to pack the produce in<br />
a variety of ways, instead of<br />
in a single direction.<br />
To accomplish this single<br />
pick implementation at such<br />
a high rate, Brillopak selected<br />
Omron’s Quattro Delta robot –<br />
the world’s fastest robot with<br />
a top speed pick rate of<br />
300 per minute.<br />
Another first for Omron’s<br />
Quattro Delta is its fourth arm<br />
design which allows it to reach<br />
30% further than similar sized<br />
robots. The additional axis<br />
also allows the robot to tilt the<br />
load, making it much more<br />
flexible and therefore ideal for<br />
placing packs in tight spaces,<br />
such as punnet crates.<br />
Brillopak designed and<br />
manufactured a bespoke<br />
line named Meteor, which<br />
incorporates two Quattro<br />
robots, one placed after the<br />
other and using Brillopak’s<br />
own custom designed heads.<br />
The heads use multiple<br />
vacuum cups, which each<br />
have their own generator, to<br />
provide a secure grip on the<br />
punnet. This is particularly<br />
useful when handling a<br />
punnet with multiple holes in<br />
the film lid, as it means that<br />
a single cup won’t break the<br />
vacuum seal for the rest.<br />
To further protect the line<br />
from any downtime, Brillopak<br />
uses Omron’s Pack Expert to<br />
set up packing formations to<br />
accommodate new products.<br />
The software can be used<br />
offline, has a drag-and-drop<br />
feature for better control of the<br />
packing process, and offers<br />
3D simulation to provide<br />
a greater level of visibility.<br />
In operation, once the<br />
retailer is happy with the new<br />
layout, it can be downloaded<br />
quickly to the line, keeping<br />
any stoppages to an absolute<br />
minimum.<br />
INTUITIVE SOFTWARE USE<br />
Brillopak integrated the<br />
packing solution under<br />
the control of an Omron NJ<br />
PLC and Sysmac software,<br />
accessed by Omron HMIs.<br />
Intelligent design of the<br />
software and GUI for the HMIs<br />
was also essential to cutting<br />
downtime. Furthermore, as<br />
the line operator may not have<br />
English as a first language,<br />
the software for the HMI was<br />
specially designed to show<br />
the most likely actions in an<br />
intuitive way.<br />
Over time, Brillopak has<br />
shown that this approach is<br />
very effective in getting the<br />
line back up and running<br />
promptly, and requires less<br />
call-out for engineers.<br />
The system also has a remote<br />
access feature, allowing<br />
Brillopak to access almost<br />
every part of the system to<br />
determine the cause of any<br />
line stoppage.<br />
“For this installation,<br />
the customer demanded a<br />
return on investment in less<br />
than two years,” says David<br />
Jahn, managing director of<br />
Brillopak. “To achieve such<br />
a demanding target means<br />
keeping the line operating<br />
almost continuously,” he<br />
explains, “which is why the<br />
line was specifically designed<br />
to eliminate the stops that<br />
occur frequently because of<br />
problems with accumulation.<br />
“It was also designed to<br />
minimise the time taken to<br />
get the line up and running<br />
after changeovers, or any<br />
other stoppages, which<br />
can lead to over an hour of<br />
downtime every day,” he tells<br />

An automatic high speed<br />
flow wrapping line<br />
able to handle two<br />
quite different but highly<br />
fragile products - each in<br />
different formats - has been<br />
designed and built by Italian<br />
manufacturer PFM for one of<br />
the country’s leading organic<br />
snacks producers.<br />
Based on a single PFM<br />
Falcon four axis, servocontrolled<br />
flow wrapper,<br />
the line is compact and uses<br />
an automatic feeding system<br />
and dynamic sorter to switch<br />
between runs of the two cereal<br />
based snacks: rice bars filled<br />
with cocoa and hazelnuts,<br />
and flat corn crackers.<br />

Conveyors move<br />
tricky mattresses<br />
Astec has supplied a range of non-standard conveyors for mattress handling<br />
Anyone who has ever<br />
moved a mattress<br />
knows how difficult it<br />
is to man handle due to the<br />
awkward size and weight.<br />
However, Astec Conveyors<br />
has addressed this problem<br />
by providing various<br />
non-standard conveyors<br />
to automate and improve<br />
operator ergonomics in<br />
handling a broad range of<br />
mattress styles and sizes.<br />
Keeping continuous<br />
mattress assembly lines<br />
on schedule and running<br />
smoothly is a top priority for<br />
sleep product manufacturers,<br />
where the operators may have<br />
to manually carry out a series<br />
of mattress movements during<br />
the process. These can include<br />
transferring sideways, turning<br />
through 90 degrees and<br />
turning over completely onto<br />
the opposite side.<br />
Some years back,<br />
the Health and Safety<br />
Executive instigated a<br />
three-year initiative with<br />
bed manufacturers and the<br />
National Bed Federation to<br />
focus on manual handling<br />
risk factors with the aim<br />
of reducing the number of<br />
musculoskeletal injuries<br />
in the industry. A final report<br />
suggested that a reduction in<br />
musculoskeletal injuries over<br />
a period could be partially<br />
attributed to the introduction<br />
of mechanical handling aids.<br />
Astec designed,<br />
manufactured and installed<br />
a series of bespoke conveyors<br />
for the industry to address<br />
these needs. They are<br />
generally at least 2,000mm<br />
wide for various assembly<br />
lines at a leading UK mattress<br />
manufacturer. Astec’s<br />
bespoke conveyors included<br />
turntables, reversible belt<br />
conveyors with inbuilt<br />
tracking, side transfer units,<br />
automated turn over units and<br />
combined press/belt conveyor<br />
assemblies.<br />
Eliminating the manual<br />
handling of mattresses<br />
and integrating equipment<br />
into a system has made it<br />
more ergonomically safe for<br />
the operator and has also<br />
increased plant productivity.<br />
Astec Conveyors says this<br />
technology can be applied to<br />
other large products that are<br />
sometimes difficult for the<br />
operators to man handle.<br />

System mitigates any<br />
product effect on line<br />
The Bury Black Pudding<br />
Company has embraced<br />
the latest developments<br />
from Mettler-Toledo Product<br />
Inspection to protect its<br />
long-established reputation as<br />
demand for its product ranges<br />
increases. Using a family<br />
recipe that dates back over<br />
100 years, the award-winning<br />
company vigorously protects<br />
its reputation for high quality<br />
and consistent taste.<br />
The Bury Black Pudding<br />
Company’s first experience<br />
with Mettler-Toledo Product<br />
Inspection was an HDS metal<br />
detection system, which was<br />
specified to check clipped<br />
black and white pudding<br />
products prior to filling.<br />
High levels of detection<br />
sensitivity and equipment<br />
stability, combined with<br />
ease of use, allowed the HDS<br />
solution to be fully integrated<br />
with the existing Handtmann<br />
vacuum filling machine on<br />
the production line.<br />
The HDS system can be fully<br />
stripped down and is sealed to<br />
IP69K, making it ideal for the<br />
harsh washdown conditions<br />
Petfood producer Wagg<br />
Foods has increased its OEE<br />
efficiency by 30%, secured<br />
its packaging lines from errors<br />
and ensured full compliance<br />
with retailer codes of practice<br />
with OAL Connected, a<br />
modular suite of packaging<br />
line software.<br />
The company was attracted<br />
to the OAL Connected system<br />
as it offers label and date code<br />
verification with the option to<br />
easily expand functionality.<br />
At its core, the automated<br />
system verifies the labels,<br />
As a BRC certified company, it is essential that equipment meets safety needs<br />
that it is subjected to during<br />
each product changeover.<br />
As demand for black<br />
pudding rings increased,<br />
including larger packs and<br />
frozen products, the company<br />
installed a Profile Advantage<br />
system from Mettler to assure<br />
quality while mitigating any<br />
‘product effect’.<br />
The system detects irregular<br />
shaped metal contaminants<br />
up to 50% smaller in such<br />
challenging applications.<br />
Having been impressed<br />
with the product trials<br />
Label and date code verification is helping<br />
a petfood manufacturer to meet standards<br />
Operational<br />
managers can now<br />
plan their factory<br />

A bespoke system was devised<br />
Cereals are<br />
now cooler<br />
in processing<br />
Silvery Tweed Cereals has<br />
completed a bespoke project to<br />
upgrade the cooling capabilities<br />
of its flaking line in conjunction<br />
with local engineering company<br />
FEG. This £250,000 project is<br />
the culmination of 12 month’s<br />
work which is today, delivering<br />
a 51% reduction in pre-pack<br />
temperatures in comparison<br />
with the old line.<br />
The drive and justification for<br />
this project was to reduce pre-pack<br />
temperatures, reduce floor waste,<br />
simplify cleaning and remove the<br />
danger of long term breakdown.<br />
Silvery Tweed wanted to move<br />
away from the industry standard<br />
of drying, cooling conveyors<br />
which use individual slats on a<br />
chain drive. This element is what<br />
took most of the time as the<br />
cereals producer had to find an<br />
engineering company that was<br />
up to the task.<br />
FEG rose to the challenge and<br />
has delivered on all expectations<br />
of the food company’s brief.<br />
At the same time, FEG<br />
upgraded the process control of<br />
the line to give more operator<br />
flexibility in managing line<br />
speeds, product depths, and<br />
dust extraction along with<br />
refrigeration airflow.<br />
The line is already delivering<br />
substantial savings on floor waste<br />
and in turn increasing output.<br />

It proved nearly impossible to score<br />
Visitors tested their<br />
skills against a robot<br />
controlled goalie<br />
Visitors were happy to take<br />
a break from seeing the<br />
350 exhibitors during the<br />
three day event by testing<br />
their footballing skills in the<br />
RoboKeeper challenge.<br />
Sponsored by Omron, the<br />
feature saw hundreds of<br />
participants attempting to<br />
beat the computer-controlled<br />
goalkeeper with queues<br />
forming most days. Despite<br />
these numbers, only 26 people<br />
managed to get the ball in<br />
the back of the net. This is<br />
because RoboKeeper uses<br />
cutting-edge robotics and<br />
vision technology to make it<br />
almost impossible to score.<br />
Dan Rossek of Omron was<br />
delighted with the feature<br />
and the show. “It’s a great<br />
platform for meeting the right<br />
quality of people,” he said.<br />

engineer is important<br />
for the industry’s future<br />
Looking beyond the<br />
manufacturing sector,<br />
the PPMA Show <strong>2017</strong><br />

industry. He took to the stage<br />
to talk about the charity’s<br />
plans to support PPMA,<br />
BARA and UKIVA member<br />
companies to engage with the<br />
next generation of engineering<br />
apprentices and graduates.<br />

Enquiries at<br />
record levels<br />
for wrapper<br />
Paramount Packaging Systems,<br />
the UK and Ireland’s exclusive<br />
distributor of Fuji’s horizontal and<br />
vertical form-fill-seal equipment,<br />
were delighted to be able to<br />
launch its Alpha 8 horizontal flow<br />
wrapper at this year’s event.<br />
The Alpha 8 is Fuji’s nextgeneration<br />
packaging machine<br />
and its high speed box motion<br />
model, able to produce 400<br />
hermetically sealed packs a<br />
minute, is billed as the fastest<br />
box motion machine on the<br />
market today.<br />
“Once again Fuji raised the<br />
bar with the launch of the latest<br />
of the Alpha series, the Alpha 8,<br />
says operations manager<br />
at Paramount Darren Bull.<br />
“This new wrapper offers<br />
many new and exciting features<br />
which we believe will be of huge<br />
benefit to all new and existing<br />
customers.”<br />
Sales director, Aaron Bessell<br />
agrees. “We were delighted to<br />
attend the PPMA Show to reveal<br />
the new Alpha 8 to our UK & Irish<br />
customers,” he said.<br />
“We saw a fourfold increase<br />
in the number of customers to<br />
the stand and there have been<br />
a record number of enquiries<br />
following the launch.”<br />
THE PPMA SHOW WAS VERY SUCCESSFUL FOR MDS<br />
Order secured during event<br />
MDS was delighted to see another PPMA Show where a system was<br />
bought from the stand itself - a well-known UK biscuit manufacturer<br />
purchased the MS21 highly sensitive metal detector (pictured). Due to its<br />
multi-spectrum technology, this machine is particularly effective for wet<br />
conductive products and products which are packaged in metallised film.<br />
The show was another great<br />
success for WIPOTEC-OCS<br />
(formerly OCS Checkweighers),<br />
according to Ingolf Latz.<br />
“We have spoken to a huge<br />
amount of visitors, each one<br />
leaving with an excellent<br />
impression of the special<br />
features and flexibility<br />
the WIPOTEC-OCS range<br />
of product inspection &<br />
serialisation kit,” he says.<br />
The 5-in-1 WIPOTEC TQS-<br />
HC-A-TE serialisation solution<br />
was also well received. Simple<br />
to use and with a footprint of<br />
only 1.8m, pharmaceutical<br />
manufacturers have reliable<br />
and varied functions that are<br />
all integrated into one HMI.<br />
The Alpha 8 was demonstrated<br />

PPMA Show Review<br />
Smart light collar enables<br />
users to see a cobot status<br />
Collaborative working<br />
between operator and<br />
robot has been taken<br />
to a new level thanks to an<br />
accessory launched at the<br />
PPMA Show by RARUK<br />
Automation. YouRing is a<br />
smart, programmable device<br />
which can easily be mounted<br />
to the robot tool flange to<br />
give visual and audible<br />
information on robot status.<br />
Wireless connectivity and<br />
the URCaps plug-in that is<br />
supplied with the YouRing<br />
makes this neat and clever<br />
device easy to install; URCaps<br />
is the accessory platform that<br />
enables full integration into<br />
Polyscope, the UR GUI for robot<br />
programming and operation.<br />
YouRing can then be freely<br />
programmed to meet the<br />
needs of the application and<br />
the operator.<br />
As well as indicating the<br />
direction of travel, YouRing<br />
can work to a user selectable<br />
safety plan and, for example<br />
communicate when an<br />
object has been grasped or<br />
assembled correctly or when<br />
tolerance needs to be checked.<br />
Pacepacker compared its<br />
new pallet stacking software<br />
against more traditional<br />
robot teach pendants to show<br />
visitors how customers are<br />
already cutting the time<br />
it takes to reprogram a new<br />
pallet stack recipe by over<br />
400% while reducing waste<br />
caused by badly stacked<br />
delivery pallets by 10%.<br />
Writing the programming<br />
code to modify a palletising<br />
stack format using a robot<br />
teach pendant can involve<br />
more than 30 individual<br />
The new light collar allows easy working between the operator and the cobot<br />
A rainbow pallet and a<br />
choice of coloured LEDs can<br />
be assigned to different tasks<br />
which can also flash and<br />
create a rotating effect that<br />
follows the movement of the<br />
arm. Similarly, the pitch,<br />
volume and frequency of the<br />
buzzer can be adjusted for<br />
various warning functions.<br />
Buttons on YouRing enable<br />
the free-drive mode to be<br />
selected and execute specific<br />
script functions such as<br />
turn on a digital output or<br />
manually re-activate the robot<br />
after a task has been paused.<br />
Certified by Universal<br />
Robots for use on its entire<br />

Latest stacking software was pitted against<br />
robot teach pendants to prove time savings<br />
jogging and coordinated<br />
recording steps on a standard<br />
5 fold pattern. With many<br />
food factories performing<br />
20+ recipe/stack changes<br />
weekly, this trial and error<br />
process has long been a drain<br />
on resources and production<br />
time, resulting in frequent<br />
regular engineering callouts.<br />

Pallet+ enables factory<br />
operatives to change, store and<br />
recall new or revised robotic<br />
palletising and case loading<br />
recipes in several minutes<br />
versus over an hour with<br />
usual robot teach pendants.<br />
What’s more, it requires little<br />
programming knowledge<br />
to complete the process.<br />

First time<br />
visit seen as<br />
a success<br />
“This is the first time we have<br />
attended the PPMA show and it<br />
was an enormous success,” says<br />
Mitsubishi Electric marketing &<br />
operations group manager Chris<br />
Evans. “Mitsubishi Electric’s<br />
solutions for the packaging<br />
industry address the full spectrum<br />
of challenges facing the sector and<br />
meet the needs of both machine<br />
builders and end users,” he<br />
continues. “Machine builders can<br />
reduce development times with<br />
improving functionality, while end<br />
users benefit from machines that<br />
increase productivity.”<br />
Visitors to the stand were<br />
able to learn about Mitsubishi<br />
Electric’s commitment to the<br />
OMAC PackML standard, with<br />
demonstrations showing how<br />
it brings benefits to machine<br />
builders and end users alike.<br />
Machine builders are increasingly<br />
being asked to offer PackML<br />
standardisation by packaging<br />
customers, who see it as the<br />
key to higher machine OEE with<br />
faster throughput, faster product<br />
changeovers and less scrap.<br />
Mitsubishi Electric also showed<br />
how it has invested in making<br />
it easy to adopt the standard<br />
by offering templates that are<br />
PackML ready, saving time and<br />
cost in system development.<br />
These include pre-defined HMI<br />
templates and ready-made<br />
function blocks to speed up<br />
configuration.<br />

Checkweigher combines<br />
hygiene with high speed<br />
The hygienic design<br />
features of the Flexus<br />
Highspeed demonstrated<br />
by Minebea Intec have been<br />
systematically enhanced since<br />
the initial launch last year.<br />
This latest Flexus features<br />
hygienic design right down<br />
to the finest detail, and also<br />
offers faster processing speeds<br />
to customers.<br />
In operation, the in-line<br />
checkweigher now reliably<br />
checks the weight of small<br />
packaged foods such as<br />
tinned fish, yoghurt or<br />
snacks at high speed. It offers<br />
processing speeds of up to<br />
2.6 metres a second, opening<br />
up new possibilities in the<br />
food industry in terms of<br />
economy. “The success of our<br />
in-line checkweigher Flexus<br />
has shown us that hygienic<br />
design is right at the cutting<br />
edge,” says Stefanie Dahmen,<br />
product manager inspection<br />
at the company. “Therefore,<br />
when optimising the hygienic<br />
design of Flexus, it was clear<br />
that we needed to consider<br />
both product innovation and<br />
product diversification.<br />
The Flexus Highspeed was demonstrated<br />
“The new Flexus Highspeed<br />
is our response to the<br />
demand for a checkweigher<br />
specifically for weighing<br />
smaller products quickly<br />
and we are anticipating<br />
high demand in the 1kg<br />
weighing range, and<br />
higher speeds in the<br />
weighing range up to<br />
7kg are, of course also<br />
possible.”<br />
All checkweighers in<br />
the Flexus range have<br />
been developed according<br />
to the EHEDG hygienic<br />
design guidelines, in<br />
order to comply with the<br />
strict hygiene standards<br />
in the food industry.<br />
As a result, contact<br />
surfaces and horizontal<br />
surfaces have been<br />
minimised, and the need<br />
for hollowed sections has<br />
been eliminated due to<br />
the open frame.<br />
Together with<br />
the increased floor<br />
clearance, hygienic feet<br />
and a hygienic box for<br />
the pneumatics, the<br />
checkweighers guarantee<br />
straightforward<br />
inspection and quick and<br />
reliable cleaning.<br />

PPMA Show Review<br />
Seal options offer quick<br />
and easy upgrade choice<br />
Winkworth<br />
introduced<br />
Multigland<br />
at the show, an<br />
innovation designed<br />
to allow its customers<br />
to be flexible and agile<br />
while continuing to<br />
use mixing machines<br />
that they have been<br />
using successfully for<br />
decades.<br />
Multigland is<br />
a purpose built<br />
platform design that is<br />
incorporated into the<br />
end plate of a standard<br />
ribbon blender. It is<br />
designed to take in the<br />
first instance, the low cost<br />
proven and industry accepted<br />
gland packing approach,<br />
but with the added benefit of<br />
pre machining in readiness<br />
for an upgrade to leading<br />
mechanical seal designs<br />
which are supported<br />
worldwide. The Cinch seal<br />
and Impro Air Miser seal are<br />
catered for.<br />
These preparations allow<br />
the owner of the mixer to take<br />
advantage of the upgrade<br />
Multigland offers mixer users a futureproof design<br />
possibility at some time in<br />
the future – whether in two<br />
or twenty years. In practice,<br />
customers are able to move<br />
their business forward as<br />
demands change without<br />
the need to replace the whole<br />
machine, without the need<br />
to have major disruption of<br />
the replacement process and<br />
without the need to install<br />
a second line to manage the<br />
new demands.<br />
“In short, this is a major<br />
step forward in asset<br />
protection and versatility<br />
and flexibility in<br />
ownership,” says Grant<br />
Jamieson, managing<br />
director of Winkworth.<br />
This new product is<br />
particularly suitable for<br />
powder blending as very<br />
often, a determining<br />
factor in the choice of<br />
machine is associated<br />
with clean down practices<br />
and the frequency of<br />
changing from one recipe<br />
or formula to another.<br />
Cross contamination<br />
in some environments<br />
is a major concern,<br />
for instance, while changes<br />
in regulations can also have<br />
a bearing.<br />
“We have seen a number of<br />
successful companies being<br />
forced to respond to regulatory<br />
and assurance changes and our<br />
innovation in design is aimed<br />
at fully protecting their asset,”<br />
says Jamieson. “We believe<br />
we’ve designed for today and<br />
are ready for tomorrow.”<br />

All-in-one verification<br />
offers food sector gain<br />
A<br />
system that combines<br />
multi-parameter product<br />
verification from a small<br />
footprint has been developed<br />
by Dimaco (UK) and Starflex<br />
Packaging Europe.<br />
Called the Veri-WEIGH,<br />
the new machine overcomes<br />
a set of problems that have<br />
existed in the food industry<br />
for some time. Namely, how<br />
to checkweigh, verify the label<br />
and check the seal of food<br />
products on a single machine<br />
– traditionally, of course, these<br />
functions have each been<br />
carried out on separate units.<br />
And even where physical<br />
space to fit all this kit isn’t an<br />
issue, data sharing between<br />
them often was.<br />
By creating a close<br />
partnership between the<br />
two companies, it has been<br />
possible to develop this single<br />
machine that is not only<br />
physically small but, says<br />
Dimaco’s Russell Sion, one<br />
that is greater than the sum<br />
of its parts. “This is due to its<br />
ability to share both product<br />
specification data and realtime<br />
results,” he says.<br />
The Veri-WEIGH<br />
verification unit was<br />
seen at the exhibition<br />
for the first time<br />
Dimaco has used its unique<br />
set of algorithms which are<br />
billed as allowing best in class<br />
label inspection on rotated and<br />
distorted labels. In addition<br />
to this inspection software,<br />
the company has also<br />
developed its Veri-CENTRAL<br />
database which is capable of<br />
being fully integrated into a<br />
food processing company’s<br />
production system.<br />
Indeed, this database was<br />
the key to allowing the check<br />
weigher and vision system<br />
to share production and<br />
inspection data in real time.<br />
A machine was therefore<br />
designed to support the<br />
competing needs of load cells<br />
and cameras so that neither<br />
inspection was compromised.<br />

Automation technologies offer<br />
factory of the future production<br />
ABB showcased its<br />
range of automation<br />
technologies, targeting all<br />
industries including food and<br />
beverage and pharmaceuticals<br />
and a host of applications<br />
from picking, packing and<br />
palletising to pumps, fans,<br />
compressors and mixers.<br />
The stand reflected ABB’s<br />
broad portfolio including<br />
robots, variable speed drives,<br />
motors, distributed control<br />
systems, programmable<br />
logic controllers, switch gear<br />
and cable ties.<br />
Under the theme of<br />
‘smart manufacturing’,<br />
ABB demonstrated how<br />
its products, systems and<br />
services use digitalisation to<br />
improve energy efficiency and<br />
enhance overall equipment<br />
effectiveness while helping to<br />
fulfil regulatory compliance.<br />
ABB’s family of table<br />
top SCARA offers new<br />
opportunities for automated<br />
materials handling and<br />
inspection applications.<br />
Offering fast and accurate<br />
performance and capable of<br />
handling payloads up to 6kg,<br />
The robot cell demonstrated short cycle times, accuracy and high payload<br />
it incorporates the same<br />
high performance and design<br />
concepts as ABB’s other small<br />
robots, including superior<br />
path control and accuracy in<br />
a small footprint.<br />
The SCARA worked<br />
alongside ABB’s dual-armed<br />
collaborative robot YuMi.<br />
Meanwhile, ABB’s FlexPicker<br />
robot cell, comprising two<br />
ABB FlexPicker IRB 360 robots<br />
with integrated colour vision<br />
technology, can perform<br />
120 picks per minute.<br />
The IRB 360 offers motion<br />
performance with short cycle<br />
times, precision accuracy and<br />
high payloads.<br />
ABB is one of the only<br />
companies that makes both<br />
variable speed drives and<br />
low voltage AC motors, and<br />
as such, believes it is well<br />
equipped to offer customers<br />
a perfectly designed, tested<br />
and approved matched pair,<br />
for whatever the motor-driven<br />
application. For instance, an<br />
ATEX approved AC motor and<br />
drive combination gives safe,<br />
economic power combined<br />
with effective control.<br />
ABB also launched its IEC<br />
stainless steel wash down<br />
motor that complies with strict<br />
hygiene standards along with<br />
its Ability Smart Sensor for<br />
motors which is a pocket-sized<br />
device that is retrofitted to the<br />

New mid-range multihead<br />
weigher for loose product<br />
Yamato Scale Dataweigh<br />
UK launched a midrange<br />
multihead<br />
weighing machine.<br />
Called Epsilon, it is<br />
designed specifically for the<br />
cost effective weighing and<br />
packaging of loose products.<br />
This new Dataweigh<br />
Epsilon series of combination<br />
weighers brings together<br />
the best features of the<br />
Sigma Series and Yamato’s<br />
intelligent Omega series in<br />
a single affordable machine<br />
while increasing the weighing<br />
options available.<br />
“We are convinced that<br />
the multihead weighers in<br />
this series will revolutionise<br />
the weighing and packaging<br />
of loose products across<br />
a variety of sectors,” said<br />
Andrea Spencer, commercial<br />
operations manager for<br />
Yamato Scale Dataweigh UK.<br />
“The new series delivers<br />
excellent performance at<br />
an affordable price and it<br />
can handle a wide range of<br />
products without sacrificing<br />
speed or accuracy.”<br />
Yamato says that<br />
maintaining the new machine<br />
is easy. Buckets and linear<br />
feeder pans can be simply<br />
removed and re-attached<br />
without tools and an autoinhibit<br />
function allows<br />
The Epsilon series of weighers can be networked with other devices<br />
buckets to be removed<br />
without stopping the weigher,<br />
therefore reducing downtime.<br />
Intrinsically hygienic and<br />
safe in structure, it is IP 66<br />
compliant – making it ideal<br />
for harsh environments.<br />
The buckets have large<br />
radius corners which make<br />
the weigher easy and quick<br />
to clean, also reducing<br />
downtime. And the machine is<br />
robust, with load cells that can<br />
withstand loads of up to 150kg.<br />
Operating the new weigher<br />
is also straightforward.<br />
A 10.4in colour touch screen<br />
displays user-friendly icons<br />
to allow effortless operation,<br />
while a wireless connection<br />
for smart phones and tablets<br />
is also available.<br />

Labels can be applied<br />
in cost effective ways<br />
Approved Toshiba TEC reseller<br />
Norpak showcased the APLEX4 at<br />
the exhibition, a low cost automatic<br />
label print and application system that<br />
combines high performance and cost<br />
effectiveness.<br />
“As the exclusive UK distributor of<br />
this cutting edge label applicator, we are<br />
perfectly positioned to highlight why it<br />
is suitable for a wide variety of industrial<br />
and manufacturing based environments<br />
thanks to its design, performance<br />
and low cost of ownership,” explains<br />
sales manager at Norpak Gary Day.<br />
“Furthermore, we highlighted how we<br />
have made an exciting innovation to the<br />
product, which will benefit an even wider<br />
range of companies.”<br />
APLEX4 has the<br />
ability to accommodate<br />
in-line operation with<br />
thermal transfer and<br />
direct thermal media,<br />
making it suitable<br />
for even the most<br />
demanding environments.<br />
It can handle production<br />
levels of up to 30 labels<br />
per minute and is available<br />
in resolutions of 200, 300<br />
and 600 dpi.<br />
With an in-built backlit<br />
LCD graphical user interface,<br />
The APLEX4 label applicator<br />
was demonstrated at the show<br />
access to information and settings<br />
is simple and the APLEX4 can be set to<br />
apply labels from the top, bottom or sides<br />
and at any rotation angle required.<br />
In addition, it can seamlessly integrate<br />
into existing legacy systems, without the<br />
need to modify a host system’s hardware<br />
or software.<br />
After consultation with customers,<br />
Norpak has also configured APLEX4<br />
as a semi-automated<br />
system by integrating<br />
a footswitch. Manually<br />
pressing the footswitch<br />
triggers the system to<br />
run through its cycle<br />
– printing a label and<br />
dispensing it to the<br />
vacuum pad, which comes<br />
down and affixes the<br />
label on to the product.<br />
Labels are printed on an<br />
‘as needed’ basis, meaning<br />
that they print one at a<br />
time and a specific job can<br />
be cancelled at any point<br />
in the process.<br />
“This can significantly<br />
reduce the amount of<br />
wastage incurred,”<br />

This introduction<br />
has FMD top tips<br />
and new products<br />
In the PPMA Show Learning<br />
Hub in September the UK sales<br />
manager at Crest Solutions<br />
Dan Anslow talked about<br />
the realities of implementing<br />
solutions for serialisation,<br />
aggregation and track & trace and<br />
shared some top tips to achieving<br />
compliance with the European<br />
Falsified Medicines Directive (FMD).<br />
Remember, the regulation deadline<br />
is February 9, 2019 and pertains<br />
specifically to the lowest saleable<br />
item of prescription medicine,<br />
which requires a unique reference<br />
number or ‘Serialisation Number’<br />
which is displayed as human<br />
readable text and embedded within<br />
a 2D matrix. The carton or bottle<br />
must also contain anti-tamper<br />
evidence.<br />
Anslow said that the three<br />
key components of successful<br />
serialisation implementation are<br />
stakeholder engagement; vendor<br />
selection and relationship; and<br />
staff training.<br />
He also talked about things to<br />
watch out for on the journey towards<br />
FMD compliance. These are:<br />
• Ensure your team is on board,<br />
and that all the relevant<br />
stakeholders and teams have<br />
a clear understanding of the<br />
scale and impact of the project<br />
to be undertaken<br />
• When selecting a vendor, consider<br />
location and their ability to<br />
support your site on the ground<br />
• As regulations in this sector<br />
are evolving, technology can<br />
be immature and, with the<br />
best of intentions, vendors can<br />
sometimes over-promise<br />
• Visits to reference sites for other<br />
customers who have already<br />
implemented a particular<br />
technology are a must<br />
• Your team of line operators will<br />
appreciate an understanding and<br />
training in this technology.<br />

At the same time, equipment<br />
that has been designed for<br />
compressed air tablets is<br />
now available from Piab in the<br />
form of vacuum conveyors.<br />
vacuum plays a key role<br />
The company believes that vacuum<br />
automation technologies can play<br />
a key role in streamlining tablet<br />
production. By taking the right<br />
precautions in installing a reliable,<br />
efficient vacuum conveying system,<br />
manufacturers can increase<br />
productivity, reduce breakages,<br />
costs and energy usage as well as<br />
improving work environments,<br />
enabling them to compete better in<br />
a competitive industry.<br />
Ensure that your team and<br />
all relevant stakeholders are on<br />
board with any new FMD plan<br />
Particle separation prior to tablet<br />
compression, as a result of gravity<br />
and particle characteristics, as<br />
well as external factors such as<br />
airflow and vibration, known<br />
as segregation, can threaten the<br />
integrity of drug dosages and<br />
jeopardise the uniformity of the<br />
batch. By handling the material<br />
at a controlled speed, vacuum<br />
conveyors can ensure the<br />
material remains blended and<br />
significantly reduces the risk of<br />
segregation, says Piab.<br />
Meanwhile, Ytron-Quadro (UK)<br />
is now offering a new patented<br />
design of rotor-stator from<br />
VMI. It offers more efficient<br />
dispersion of powders without<br />
losing any product. Thanks to the<br />
pre-dispersion/powder’s wetting<br />
phase and to the finer dispersion<br />
and emulsion phase, there is no<br />
risk of particle agglomeration or<br />
powder projection through the<br />
liquid phase.<br />

Medical<br />
devices are<br />
next in line<br />
With the deadline set in place to comply<br />
with the mandatory requirements of the EU<br />
regulations relating to medical devices, we<br />
talk to Domino about what this all means<br />
Manufacturers of anything<br />
from contact lenses to<br />
pacemakers have now been<br />
given a time frame to ensure<br />
they have all the affected<br />
areas of their business covered, including<br />
product identification, to comply with<br />
the EU MDR (European Medical Device<br />
Regulation).<br />
To help them along this road to<br />
compliance, Domino has just produced<br />
a comprehensive white paper which<br />
is available from the company free of<br />
charge. This highlights the multiple<br />
aspects to take into consideration in<br />
order to select the coding and marking<br />
system that is best suited for a business.<br />
These aspects include substrates and<br />
materials, production volume and data<br />
management, to name but a few.<br />
MANAGE YOUR TIME FRAMES<br />
More importantly, says the report,<br />
manufacturers need to manage their<br />
time frames as effectively as possible and<br />
act now as sufficient time needs to be<br />
allowed to test solutions and potentially<br />
make the necessary adjustments to<br />
manage the new coding requirements.<br />
As background, under the FDA (Food<br />
& Drug Administration) rule in the USA,<br />
manufacturers have been required<br />
to implement UDI (unique device<br />
identification) on all medical product<br />
packaging since 2014. Following this,<br />
European manufacturers of medical<br />
devices will face tougher regulations<br />
to ensure their products are safe to use<br />
under the new EU laws that are<br />
scheduled to come into effect on 26 May,<br />
2020 onwards.<br />
Domino says that in terms of coding<br />
and marking, the lessons learnt by the<br />
company in the US market can be easily<br />
transferred to the European one as<br />
there is some overlap between FDA and<br />
EU MDR requirements. The company’s<br />
Global Life Sciences division shares<br />
market information across the company’s<br />
channels to raise awareness surrounding<br />
medical devices, as well as the wider<br />
requirements of the medical sector.<br />
The new regulation will also see the<br />
introduction of a new unique device<br />
identification system, similar to the US.<br />
This means that, for traceability<br />
It is advances in<br />
medical devices that<br />
has prompted change<br />
Device advances have led to the new EU rules<br />
purposes, medical devices sold in EU<br />
member states will need to include a<br />
code, also known as a unique device<br />
identifier, of which the details will be<br />
recorded in an EU database.<br />
With these laws coming into effect,<br />
manufacturers now have a legal<br />
responsibility to invest in a solution that<br />
allows them to apply traceability codes<br />
onto products as well as their packaging.<br />
The classification of medical devices<br />
is very similar to the US classification<br />
but there are some minor differences.<br />
Manufacturers will have to determine<br />
what category of medical devices each<br />
of their products belongs to, based on<br />
article 51 and Annex VIII of the EU MDR<br />
in which 22 rules are defined to help<br />
classify each product.<br />
Each class will have different time<br />
frames for compliance.<br />
Looking at the coding and marking<br />
requirements, there are a few<br />
considerable differences between the

Pacemakers are included in regulations<br />
The white paper helps manufacturers prepare for the upcoming EU medical device regulation<br />
FDA regulation and Europe. For example,<br />
the CE logo and the letters ‘MD’ need to<br />
appear in a designated square on each<br />
label to indicate that an item is a medical<br />
device. Manufacturers can decide to print<br />
all the data or have some of the static data<br />
pre-printed.<br />
Some products will be very similar,<br />
but only vary in size or name. In this<br />
case, it is recommended to not use preprinted<br />
labels and print both the static<br />
and variable data to avoid mistakes and<br />
to minimise stock costs.<br />
The variable data – the UDI-PI<br />
(UDI-Production Identifier) – has to be<br />
printed on the lowest packaging level.<br />
The current rules relating to the safety<br />

and performance of medical devices in<br />
the EU date back to the 1990s. However,<br />
it is the substantial scientific and<br />
technological advances in the medical<br />
sector that have taken place since their<br />
implementation that has prompted the<br />
EU Commission to update the rules.<br />
The role of coding and marking in the<br />
medical sector is a good one. Codes on<br />
medical devices results in more efficient<br />
product recall procedures, the reduction<br />
of medical errors, as well as increased<br />
inventory visibility and supply chain<br />
security. The unique codes are crucial to<br />
unlocking the so-called ‘chain of custody’<br />
in the event of a recall.<br />
Failure to comply with the new<br />
legislation will have negative<br />
repercussions on manufacturers as they<br />
will no longer be able to supply their<br />
products to other EU member states.<br />
Fee payers and healthcare providers will<br />
not accept devices without UDI codes that<br />
are up to the required standard.<br />
As a result, manufacturers now face a<br />
responsibility to familiarise themselves<br />
with the exact requirements of the<br />
legislation and ensure they have a coding<br />
and marking solution in place.<br />
Domino’s white paper outlines all of<br />
the coding and marking technologies<br />
available to the medical sector for<br />
primary, secondary and tertiary<br />
packaging to help medical device<br />
manufacturers tackle compliance<br />
issues. By taking action ahead of the<br />
deadline and partnering with a reliable<br />
supplier and partner that can provide<br />
the guidance and industry knowledge<br />
required, compliance can be successfully<br />
achieved, says the company.<br />

Feature: Pharmaceuticals<br />
Every day, 1.6 million<br />
people in the UK<br />
visit a pharmacy<br />
and about 1 billion<br />
medicines are<br />
dispensed from community<br />
pharmacies every year.<br />
In addition, thousands more<br />
patients receive medication<br />
dispensed from hospital<br />
pharmacies every 24 hours.<br />
The task to produce Falsified<br />
Medicines Directive (FMD)<br />
compliant packaging is well<br />
underway however, with<br />
these enormous quantities<br />
of medicines making their<br />
way through the supply<br />
chain every year, the biggest<br />
challenge still to overcome<br />
for many, is how to manage<br />
the resource hungry task<br />
of capturing the data.<br />
Especially as the FMD<br />
deadline of February 9, 2019<br />
is just around the corner.<br />
“This is where machine<br />
vision has a vast and exciting<br />
role to play,” argues Patrick<br />
Robinson who is responsible<br />
for healthcare solutions at<br />
Datalogic UK.<br />
Datalogic’s machine vision<br />
technology has been used<br />
to develop an automated<br />
pharmaceutical sorting<br />
machine that enables fully<br />
traceable, error-free storage<br />
and retrieval of medicines.<br />
Medicines can be sorted into<br />
the machine in any order, are<br />
then reliably detected and<br />
automatically stored.<br />
The system uses four of<br />
Datalogic’s Matrix 410<br />
cameras and software,<br />
developed by Datalogic<br />
partner MACH4, to capture<br />
images of the medication<br />
boxes and scan the barcode<br />
or the 2D data matrix codes.<br />
Handheld devices are also offered<br />
Datalogic’s machine vision technology has been used to develop an automated pharmaceutical sorting machine<br />
that enables fully traceable, error-free storage and retrieval of medicines that also works on production lines<br />
Track with<br />
confidence<br />
Machinery Update talks to Datalogic about the role its<br />
vision technology plays in ensuring FMD compliance<br />
Due to the large reading<br />
field of the 2-megapixel<br />
matrix camera, packs of<br />
medication can be placed<br />
into the order-picking system<br />
in any orientation. The four<br />
integrated cameras analyse<br />
each pack from all sides to<br />
identify codes – a procedure<br />
that saves employees in<br />
pharmacies and hospitals<br />
huge amounts of time and<br />
reduces the risk of picking<br />
incorrect items.<br />
The Matrix 410 camera<br />
combines image capture,<br />
decoding and communication<br />
and also recognises damaged<br />
codes thanks to the capture<br />
of photographs. Despite the<br />
high reading speed, reliable<br />
recognition is ensured<br />
especially with 2D codes<br />
and direct product marking,<br />
says Robinson.<br />
CAMERAS ARE FLEXIBLE<br />
In addition to conventional<br />
barcodes, the camera also<br />
decodes postcodes, batch<br />
codes and 2D data matrix<br />
codes and then transmits<br />
the images to the software<br />
in real-time. Depending on<br />
the size and requirements<br />
of a pharmacy or a hospital,<br />
different machine formats<br />
and sizes are available which<br />
can hold 1,200 to 60,000<br />
medicines. Using this fully<br />
automated process, up to<br />
100 packs of medicine can be<br />
stored in just three minutes,<br />
manual effort is reduced to<br />
a minimum and the error rate<br />
is virtually zero.<br />
To date, more than 1,200<br />
MACH4 pharmaceutical<br />
sorting machines have been<br />
installed worldwide including<br />
a number of installations at<br />
hospitals in the UK. However,<br />

chain where machine vision<br />
technology can yield similar<br />
benefits.<br />
On the production line,<br />
cameras integrated with<br />
image and optical character<br />
recognition software can<br />
identify packaging and read<br />
alphanumeric strings such as<br />
batch numbers on different<br />
packaging types. The system<br />
is capable of providing realtime<br />
feedback to the controller<br />
to confirm that certain<br />
information is present and<br />
readable on the package, such<br />
as a 2D data matrix code.<br />
If necessary, strings or serial<br />
numbers can be read several<br />
times so that even print errors<br />
on packaging are detected.<br />
The software also has the<br />
potential to recognise if the<br />
tamper evident feature is<br />
present on the packaging<br />
to ensure compliance with<br />
this element of the directive.<br />
For each deviation, the noncompliant<br />
packaging is<br />
removed from the production<br />
and distribution cycle.<br />
and irrefutable audit trail of<br />
where each pack of medicine<br />
has been in its journey.<br />
It doesn’t stop at the hospital<br />

the point of patient care, with<br />
specially designed healthcare<br />

“What many people don’t<br />

How-to video<br />
of titanium<br />
dioxide uses<br />
Silverson Machines has released a<br />
‘how-to’ video demonstrating methods<br />
of easily and efficiently dispersing<br />
titanium dioxide, solving an ongoing<br />
need for the chemical, personal care<br />
and pharmaceutical industries.<br />
Titanium dioxide comes in<br />
pre-micronised powder form, but the<br />
particles tend to reagglomerate when added<br />
to water. Conventional mixers cannot break<br />
these agglomerates down and therefore<br />
cannot obtain the fine particle size needed<br />
to give products such as pill coatings or<br />
lotions, maximum opacity and gloss.<br />
Silverson says its precision-engineered<br />
mixers offer positive high shear mixing that<br />
will rapidly disperse the pigment to give a<br />
uniform, agglomerate-free dispersion.<br />
OUTLINING OPERATIONAL GAINS<br />
First, the mixer’s rotor/stator workhead<br />
draws the powder and liquid into the centre<br />
of the workhead at high speed. Centrifugal<br />
force then drives the materials to the<br />
periphery of the workhead where they are<br />
subjected to a milling action in the precision<br />
clearance between the tip of the rotator<br />
blade and the inner wall of the stator.<br />
“That intense mechanical shear breaks<br />
down any agglomerates, and then projects<br />
them back into the body of the mix in a<br />
circulatory pattern,” says Matt Smith,<br />
international sales director at Silverson.<br />
“With each successive pass through the<br />
workhead, their size is progressively<br />
reduced, and the result is a fine, uniform<br />
and agglomerate-free dispersion.”<br />
The company offers a number of<br />
solutions for titanium dioxide dispersion:<br />
high-speed batch mixers for small<br />
volumes such as tablet coatings and<br />
other specialist products, and in-line<br />
mixers that can be used in a self-pumping<br />
recirculation system for intensive and<br />
targeted high shear on larger batches.<br />
To showcase these mixers and other<br />
precision-engineered solutions the<br />
company offers, Silverson has created<br />
a series of ‘How-To’ videos. These videos<br />
including the high-speed dispersion of<br />
titanium dioxide can be viewed in the<br />

Glass vials are<br />
handled faster<br />
The system can accurately fill both large and<br />
small amounts of pharmaceutical powders<br />
Bosch Packaging Technology has<br />
introduced the latest addition to<br />
its AFG series.<br />
“During development of this<br />
filling and closing machine for<br />
pharmaceutical powders, our main focus<br />
was on flexibility,” explains Dieter Bandtel,<br />
product manager at Bosch Packaging<br />
Technology. “With the AFG 5000,<br />
customers can choose between several<br />
different versions and various features.”<br />
Based on a single machine platform, the<br />
system can accurately fill both large and<br />
small amounts of powder. Customers have<br />
the choice between one filling point for an<br />
output of 160 containers per minute through<br />
to three filling points for up to 480 vials per<br />
minute. Thanks to the vacuum-compressedair<br />
filling system, the output remains high<br />
even when filling small amounts.<br />
For all versions, customers can choose<br />
between statistical or 100% in-process<br />
control of dosing weights.<br />
“To optimise efficiency, we have<br />
developed a new, flexible transport system<br />
for the AFG 5000,” says Bandtel. “While<br />
the vials are continuously fed into the<br />
machine, the transport system adjusts<br />
the speed of the following processes<br />
to precisely match the rhythm of the<br />
individual work stations.”<br />
Whether filling, weighing or closing<br />
vials, the new vertical transport system<br />
was designed to prevent idle time or<br />
bottlenecks. Rotating carrier systems,<br />
known as shuttles, transfer the vials<br />
quickly and safely to the respective work<br />
station. Once the vials have been sealed<br />
and taken out of the system, the shuttles<br />
quickly return to the infeed, ready for the<br />
next transport run.<br />
In addition to flexibility, the AFG 5000<br />
is compact as powder filling takes<br />
place in class B cleanrooms, where every<br />
centimetre counts in terms of operating,<br />
maintenance and cleaning costs.<br />

Blister changes are fast<br />
Surepharm Services has streamlined productivity with a new blister line<br />
British pharmaceuticals CMO<br />
Surepharm Services has<br />
experienced streamlined<br />
productivity following its<br />
installation of the Blister<br />
Express Center 300 (BEC 300) from<br />
Uhlmann Packaging Systems.<br />
A specialist in the contract<br />
manufacturing of generic and branded<br />
formulations, Surepharm required a<br />
blister line that would enable quick, easy<br />
and reliable changeovers to meet the<br />
goal of packaging at least 10 medicines in<br />
varying pack sizes. Uhlmann’s BEC 300, The Blister Express Center 300 from Uhlmann Packaging Systems has delivered benefits<br />
a combined blister and cartoning module<br />
met these needs. In operation, the unit<br />
processes blisters up to 95 x 145mm in size<br />
at speeds of up to 300 a minute as well as<br />
150 cartons a minute.<br />
The compact BEC 300 features a fast<br />
format changeover. For instance, a threedimensional<br />
format changeover can be<br />
carried out in less than 30 minutes, with<br />
the use of only a few lightweight tools.<br />
Resetting can be carried out without the<br />
use of any special tools, as new format<br />
parts are simply inserted and positioned.<br />
Similarly, Uhlmann’s S 3015 stretchbanding<br />
integrated downstream from the BEC 300,<br />
features fast changeovers and efficient<br />
material consumption. Together, the<br />
machines function smoothly and efficiently.<br />
Because of its diverse range of<br />
contracts, Surepharm also wanted<br />
to assure maximum flexibility, and<br />
appreciated Uhlmann’s capability to<br />
develop appropriate format parts for<br />
specially shaped solid dose products,<br />
as well as to provide additional feeders.<br />
“Uhlmann and the BEC 300 have<br />
exceeded our expectations,” says Julian<br />
Surepharm. “The BEC 300’s efficiency,<br />
fast format changeover, and userfriendliness<br />
are ideal, as is Uhlmann’s<br />
willingness and flexibility to meet any<br />
future needs we may have.”<br />
“Thanks to complete cooperation<br />
between our teams, the installation<br />
and operation of the BEC 300 and S3015<br />

Total Productive Maintenance<br />
SMC Business Development Manager Jeff Careless, who advises customers on all aspects<br />
of Total Productive Maintenance (TPM), tells Machinery Update how taking a holistic approach<br />
to equipment maintenance can yield significant improvements to production efficiency.<br />
Total Productive Maintenance is<br />
helping all sorts of organisations, from<br />
global corporations to specialist SMEs,<br />
to maximise business efficiency. Often<br />
it is small changes in the<br />
manufacturing process that make the<br />
biggest impact. SMC Pneumatics has<br />
been promoting manufacturing<br />
efficiency for nearly 40 years with its<br />
Continuous Improvement strategy at<br />
the heart of the company’s business<br />
philosophy.<br />
When talking about TPM with customers,<br />
the first thing I do is put it in context<br />
as part of our commitment to Continuous<br />
Improvement in all aspects of an<br />
organisation’s business operation.<br />
But the area where the biggest returns<br />
can be achieved often with just<br />
small changes is Overall Equipment<br />
Effectiveness (OEE) throughout the<br />
manufacturing process. It’s here that<br />
we can advise the Maintenance Engineering<br />
team on how to develop and implement<br />
changes that are focused on proactive<br />
and preventative techniques for improving<br />
equipment reliability.<br />
But first, let’s just dispel some myths about<br />
TPM. Like many aspects of the “new”<br />
connected industry revolution, it is not<br />
actually new. It is simply a different approach<br />
to business efficiency. An effective TPM<br />
policy combines human intervention with the<br />
latest support technology using in-line<br />
diagnostics to pre-empt potential<br />
maintenance issues.<br />
Essentially, TPM brings together the roles<br />
of the production and maintenance teams<br />
with the emphasis on empowering operating<br />
staff to help maintain their equipment. With<br />
the right TPM programme, you can create<br />
shared responsibility for equipment that<br />
encourages greater hands-on involvement<br />
from production staff. This enables the<br />
maintenance staff to focus on overarching<br />
issues such equipment quality, site health &<br />
safety, back office TPM and process<br />
improvements.<br />
How does it work?<br />
So let’s look at what exactly is involved in a<br />
TPM programme. The original concept was<br />
developed back in the 1960s, consisting of the<br />
5S Foundation (Sort, Set in order, Shine,<br />
Standardise and Sustain) with Eight Pillars of<br />
activity supporting this.

Equipment restoration – clean up all pilot<br />

Accurately measure OEE – track OEE on the<br />
target equipment to identify all potential areas<br />
where productive time is being lost.<br />
Address major OEE losses – having<br />
identified the most significant causes of lost<br />
production time, use this data to create your<br />
TPM programme and create a cross-functional<br />
team to implement it.<br />
5. Maintenance Prevention Use accumulated team<br />
TPM knowledge to<br />
improve equipment<br />
design and operation<br />
6. Quality Maintenance<br />
7. Office TPM<br />
8. Safety, Health & Environment<br />
It is fairly obvious how adopting the 5S Foundation<br />
creates a clean and well organised workplace:<br />
1. Sort and Set in order tools and parts making<br />
them easier to find<br />
2. Shine – it is easier to spot fluid leaks, shavings<br />
from metal wear or material spills in a clean<br />
work area<br />
3. Standardise – create standard of regular<br />
inspections to ensure workplace is clean<br />
and tidy<br />
4. Sustain – empowered staff ensure all these<br />
standards are maintained<br />
Assuming the 5S Foundation is in place, the<br />
Eight Pillars of TPM are shown in the table.<br />

your TPM programme is to run Pillars<br />
one to four in parallel with both the<br />
production line operators and the<br />
maintenance engineers. The aim of this<br />
division of labour is to encourage<br />
operators to take responsibility for the<br />
day to day running and maintenance<br />
of their equipment so freeing up the<br />
maintenance engineers from routine shop<br />
floor activities. With their “free” time, they can<br />
concentrate on implementing Pillars five<br />
to eight.<br />
Here’s a simple roadmap to implementing<br />
your TPM programme which allows<br />
you to pilot it first in a single<br />

Getting started<br />
At SMC, we can bring to bear a host of<br />
experience when it comes to designing and<br />
implementing an effective TPM programme<br />
for customers. Through many years of<br />
working with customers from across the UK<br />
manufacturing industry, we have developed a<br />
dynamic portable display that demonstrates<br />
how we can help you deliver TPM as part of a<br />
programme of Continuous Improvement.<br />
Our modular display enables us to engage<br />
with employees wherever they are on site,<br />
highlighting the issues that directly impact on<br />
your business efficiency. Working with your<br />
engineering and production line teams we will<br />
create a TPM programme, tailored to your<br />
specific business needs.<br />
This will address staff skills gaps with<br />
appropriate training delivered by our own<br />
highly experienced Learning & Development<br />
team; identify where you can reduce waste<br />
such as compressed air leaks which on average<br />
run at 20% of all compressed air generated<br />
equating to thousands of pounds in lost<br />
materials. Working together we will help you<br />
achieve a significant increase in factory<br />
throughput and productivity.<br />

Feature: Pharmaceuticals<br />
With the<br />
deadline for<br />
compliance fast<br />
approaching,<br />
machine<br />
builders and packaging<br />
manufacturers do not have<br />
much longer to ensure<br />
pharmaceutical and medical<br />
production meets the<br />
requirements of the Falsified<br />
Medicines Directive (FMD).<br />
There has been plenty<br />
of time to prepare for the<br />
February 2019 deadline<br />
and to develop solutions<br />
to ensure packs carry the<br />
required unique, traceable<br />
serial number. “Of course<br />
companies also have to use<br />
tamper-evident systems to<br />
protect packs from being<br />
opened and reclosed,”<br />
says David Hannaby, Sick’s<br />
UK product manager for<br />
presence detection.<br />
The requirements to<br />
combat tampering are further<br />
specified in standard<br />
EN 16679:2015-03 ‘Packaging<br />
– tamper verification features<br />
for medicinal production<br />
packaging’.<br />
DEVISING THE SEALS<br />
Manufacturers of labels<br />
and labelling machinery<br />
have devised a variety of<br />
self-adhesive seals that show<br />
irreversible, visible evidence<br />
whenever someone tries to<br />
open and reclose a pack.<br />
Seals made from transparent<br />
films or foils are particularly<br />
popular with packaging<br />
designers because they do not<br />
compromise the packaging<br />
design, or cover up any<br />
other markings.<br />
Ensuring the transparent<br />
seal is correctly applied to<br />
Glare looks for high-gloss surfaces<br />
The Glare sensor is easy to integrate into both new and existing machinery and comprises a central strip of eight<br />
LED emitters surrounded by two receiver lines, which make it resistant to vibration or any product ‘wobble’<br />
Glossy seals<br />
are perfect<br />
Machinery Update talks to Sick UK about technology<br />
that helps compliance with tamper evident seal needs<br />
the packaging during the<br />
production process every time<br />
is vital to achieve compliance.<br />
An optical sensor is deployed<br />
on the machine to verify<br />
the presence of the seal,<br />
label or mark on each pack.<br />
However, transparent seals<br />
are glossy. The packaging<br />
they are attached to may<br />
also be reflective, so they<br />
pose challenges for accurate<br />
detection by photo-electric<br />
devices that are ‘confused’<br />
by the diffusion of light<br />
reflections from the gloss<br />
seal and the surrounding<br />
materials.<br />
With the new regulations<br />
approaching, Sick turned<br />
the problem of gloss into an<br />
opportunity and developed<br />
a sensor that actually looks for<br />
a high-gloss surface.<br />
The Glare product from Sick<br />
recognises and differentiates<br />
between surfaces according<br />
to how glossy they are.<br />
It does this by analysing the<br />
spatial distribution of the<br />
reflected light using Sick’s<br />
Delta-S technology. It can tell<br />
the difference between the<br />
gloss of the seal and the more<br />
scattered, diffuse reflections<br />
from the packaging material.<br />
As a result, Glare delivers<br />
nearly 100% detection rates.<br />
It can be tailored to the<br />
specific process and can be set<br />
up using a simple three-point<br />
teach-in method to evaluate<br />
the gloss properties of the<br />
seal, the packaging and the<br />
background.<br />
The Glare sensor is a compact<br />
(42.5 x 44 x 43.4mm), all-inone<br />
IP67 unit. It comprises

a central strip of eight LED<br />
emitters surrounded by two<br />
receiver lines, which make<br />
it resistant to vibration or to<br />
any ‘wobbling’ of the product<br />
on a high-speed conveyor.<br />
“Glare can cope with ±5 degree<br />
misalignment - a function<br />
which other gloss sensors<br />
cannot match,” says Hannaby.<br />
The Glare Sensor is easy<br />
to integrate into both new<br />
and existing machinery.<br />
Light levels and sensing<br />
modes are adjustable to suit<br />
the application while the<br />
integrated IO-Link facilitates<br />
integration with PLC and servo<br />
motor control. The sensor’s<br />
settings are stored centrally<br />
in the machine controller<br />
and can be transferred to<br />
the sensor when production<br />
changes to a different pack,<br />
or when a sensor needs to be<br />
replaced at any time.<br />
The sensor’s IO-Link<br />
connection also means it can<br />
be configured to supply a wide<br />
range of process data during<br />

Machinery Update<br />
looks at the latest<br />
tablet reject units<br />
At interpack earlier this<br />
year, Cremer and Deckert<br />
both showcased Cremer<br />
counters with camera<br />
inspection systems<br />
and automatic reject of individual<br />
capsules that offered many benefits<br />
to pharmaceutical manufacturers.<br />
It is true that camera detection<br />
of broken, rogue or discoloured<br />
tablets or capsules is nothing new,<br />
however previously the reject<br />
process was either manual, or<br />
involved an entire container being<br />
taken from the line. And, to ensure<br />
the ‘bad’ tablet or capsule was<br />
rejected, it often involved more<br />
than one container being taken<br />
out – for safety.<br />
“Not rejecting the whole bottle<br />
of tablets or capsules offers savings<br />
to pharmaceutical companies,”<br />
says Gregor Rauch, managing<br />
director of UK distributor Raupack.<br />
“This is especially true with large<br />
tablet counts, as savings can be<br />
significant.”<br />
The new automatic broken<br />
tablet rejection options involve<br />
pneumatic suction systems to<br />
automatically remove defective<br />
tablets or capsules from the infeed<br />
tracks. “This new approach not<br />
only maximises yield, but also<br />
minimises downtime,” says Rauch.<br />
On a standalone counter like<br />
the CFS 622 model, once a defect<br />
is identified, a pneumatic arm<br />
moves across the 36 channels<br />
to remove the defective tablet or<br />
capsule. After this, the machine<br />
restarts without having to reject<br />
a container.<br />
If a quicker response is required,<br />
the automatic tablet reject on a<br />
The camera identifies broken capsules<br />
Rejecting a<br />
slow method<br />
Broken tablets<br />
or capsules can<br />
be easily removed<br />
via a pneumatic<br />
arm on both of<br />
the counters<br />
that were<br />
demonstrated<br />
Cremer counter integrated into<br />
a Deckert TVM monoblock is the<br />
way forward. On the TVM, for<br />
instance, a single CF622 module<br />
with six channels counts the<br />
tablets into bottles. Here, the<br />
reject mechanism consists of six<br />
pneumatically actuated reject<br />
arms, one for each channel.<br />
This arm moves quickly to<br />
remove the broken or otherwise<br />
rejected tablet.<br />
The automatic tablet reject<br />
system rejects for the following<br />
causes:<br />
• Broken pieces by pixel count<br />
• Broken pieces by length or width<br />
• Colour defects<br />
• Spots<br />
• Rogue tablets<br />
• Open capsules.<br />
In operation, the camera looks<br />
from above and is restricted to<br />
what it can see above. To improve<br />
the viewing angle and therefore<br />
narrow the tolerances, flat camera<br />
plates can be fitted to the Cremer.<br />
These plates improve the aspect<br />
ratio visible to the camera and also<br />
optimises the contrast to the tablet.<br />
As well as saving pharmaceutical<br />
companies with large tablet counts<br />
costs, the system also minimises<br />
rework, as ‘good’ tablets or<br />
capsules are not falsely rejected.<br />
And obviously, these systems have<br />
more to offer for fragile or sensitive<br />
products, where broken products<br />
are a problem. Also, cost savings are<br />
greater for high value products, too.<br />
“Since interpack, we have had<br />
several large pharmaceutical<br />
companies interested in these<br />
products as they recognise the<br />
savings that can be made in<br />
manufacturing costs,” Rauch<br />
tells Machinery Update.<br />
“The best returns are offered<br />
on high value or fragile products,<br />
but the reject mechanisms can<br />
be used by any size of company,”<br />
he says.<br />

To ensure simplicity,<br />
safety and overall patient<br />
compliance, the manufacturer<br />
not only offers vials, but also<br />
pens for a precisely dosed<br />
administration of a drug to<br />
battle high cholesterol.<br />
The delicate products need to<br />
be handled with extra-special<br />
care during the packaging<br />
process as, apart from glass<br />
breakages, the pens should<br />
not be activated prematurely<br />
during the process.<br />
In the design of the<br />
machine, Schubert ensured<br />
gentle, product-friendly<br />
handling while especially<br />
avoiding glass-to-glass<br />
contact. To meet this<br />
requirement, the vials and<br />
pens are placed into fluted<br />
cardboard dividers or<br />
pre-formed trays within the<br />
cartons themselves.<br />
Inserts keep glass vials separate<br />
Exact placement of the pens in the folding cartons demanded gentle handling, as did the glass vials. Product is exposed<br />
to the maximum force of 60 N which ensures that sensitive products are not damaged during the packaging process<br />
Better safe<br />

Machinery Update reports on how efficient robots and<br />
clever 3D technology have combined to bring benefits<br />
Furthermore, only<br />
extremely low forces could<br />
be exerted on the products<br />
during this process.<br />
In operation, the packaging<br />
process begins with standing<br />
vials being fed on a conveyor<br />
belt which transports them<br />
to the F4 robots. A camera<br />
detects their position on the<br />
belt and simultaneously<br />
controls the presence of the<br />
caps. The F4 robot then grips<br />
one vial from the belt and<br />
groups it horizontally on the<br />
Transmodul. Meanwhile, the<br />
pens are fed to the F4 robots<br />
in transport crates with 120<br />
pens each on a separate<br />
conveyor belt.<br />
CONTROLLED ERECTING<br />
In the carton erecting station,<br />
the blanks for the vials or<br />
the pens are denested from<br />
a magazine and erected.<br />
During this process, the<br />
pharmacode on the blanks<br />
is controlled and verified.<br />
Blanks with incorrect codes<br />
are rejected beforehand<br />
and do not even enter the<br />
packaging process.<br />
The erected cartons are<br />
placed on a Transmodul<br />
and forwarded to the next<br />
processing phase, where<br />
they are loaded with trays<br />
or partitions. Here again,<br />
the blanks are fed into the<br />
machine via a magazine.<br />
A combination consisting<br />
of F2 and F3 robots folds<br />
the partitions before they<br />
are placed into the product<br />
cartons. Sensors on the robot<br />
tool ensure that each carton<br />
has been provided with a
www.machineryupdate.co.uk NOVEMBER/DECEMBER <strong>2017</strong> MACHINERY UPDATE 57<br />
partition or tray respectively.<br />
These pre-grouped products<br />
– pens or vials – are then<br />
securely snapped into the<br />
trays or partitions within the<br />
cartons to ensure safe onward<br />
transit with no breakages.<br />
For pen packing, a new<br />
3D camera from Schubert that<br />
was especially developed<br />
for this project comes into<br />
operation. Transit boxes with<br />
120 pens are placed on a table<br />
in front of the picking robots.<br />
The F4 robot takes these pens<br />
directly from the transport<br />
boxes and places them in<br />
pre-grouped formations.<br />
After each product is taken,<br />
the 3D camera scans the<br />
contents of the boxes and<br />
determines the exact position<br />
and layer height of each<br />
individual pen.<br />
This data is passed on to<br />
the F4 pick and place robot to<br />
ensure that each product, even<br />
if its position has changed<br />
following removal of a pen,<br />
can be precisely targeted at<br />
the next product intake.<br />
In the final step of the<br />
process, the cartons are closed<br />
and the latches are controlled.<br />
Incomplete or open cartons are<br />
detected and ejected, while a<br />
conveyor belt forwards all of<br />
the controlled products to the<br />
downstream process.<br />
The system handles 13<br />
different formats for pens and<br />
vials in operation which is<br />
why flexibility was such a key<br />
to the machine design.<br />

PRODUCT LEAFLETS<br />
In the next module, F2 robots<br />
pick the product leaflets from<br />
a magazine and place them<br />
in the product cartons. Prior<br />
to inserting the leaflets, the<br />
pharmacode on the leaflets<br />
is controlled and verified.<br />
Leaflets with incorrect codes<br />
are rejected beforehand and<br />
do not enter the packaging<br />
process.<br />
LECTOR: PRECISE AND RELIABLE PHARMA CODE READING<br />
The Lector image-based code reader can reliably read and match up codes on pharma<br />
packaging. Intelligent identifi cation algorithms ensure that different 1D, 2D, stacked<br />
codes and plain text can be read on all kinds of materials. Intuitive setup with aiming<br />
laser, focus adjustment, and auto-setup reduces training and installation time and<br />
costs. Improving traceability and anti-counterfeiting of your products.<br />

Logopak showcased its<br />
latest product at drinktec,<br />
the 500+ series, which<br />
is designed to provide high<br />
performance, exceptional<br />
flexibility and ease of use.<br />
The new 500+ series<br />
labelling system achieves an<br />
output of over 140 labels per<br />
minute in real-time labelling<br />
which facilitates individual<br />
labelling of different<br />
products without time lost<br />
through changeovers.<br />
The synchronised label and<br />
thermo-transfer running length<br />
of 800 metres is a special<br />
feature to minimise line stops.<br />
The standard machines<br />
are modular and can be<br />
configured to meet specific<br />
requirements. With over 30<br />
applicators that are easy to<br />
assemble, all conventional<br />
affixing variations (top, front<br />
and side labelling) can be<br />
applied with great flexibility.<br />

assembly processes to be<br />
optimised. The building<br />
work has already begun,<br />
and the planned date for<br />
putting the new production<br />
hall into operation is April<br />
next year.<br />
Nearly 200 staff are<br />
employed at Enger and once<br />
processed at widths of up to<br />
165 mm. The machines can<br />
also be used in stand-alone<br />
operation without a PC or<br />
connection to a higher-level<br />
software system.<br />
Logopak says the operation<br />
of the 500+ series labelling<br />
system is extremely userfriendly.<br />
For example the<br />
printing units, which are<br />
designed as quick-change<br />
systems, can be easily<br />
exchanged while all existing<br />
printing units from previous<br />
Expansion plans will bring<br />

the new building is complete,<br />
the current operating area of<br />
5,800sq m will increase by<br />
about 1,600sq m. Multivac is<br />
investing about 2.5 million<br />
euros in the new production<br />
hall, which, with its reinforced<br />
concrete supporting structure<br />
and its flat roof made of<br />
trapezoidal steel sheets,<br />
is being constructed in<br />

Crafty coder<br />
meets high<br />
speed needs<br />
A Linx 8900 continuous ink<br />
jet (CIJ) printer is being used<br />
for coding onto beer cans at<br />
a successful craft brewery in<br />
London because of its ease of<br />
use, compatibility with highspeed<br />
canning lines, and reliable<br />
operation in a damp environment.<br />
The machine is printing a<br />
single line code, using Linx black<br />
fast-drying 1240 ink, onto the<br />
bottom rim of the can, ensuring<br />
accurate placement and excellent<br />
legibility in this small area.<br />
The 2-3mm high code comprises<br />
best before date and batch code<br />
for traceability purposes.<br />
Beavertown Brewery had<br />
originally used a Linx CJ400<br />
CIJ printer for all its coding<br />
requirements, but upgraded to the<br />
8900 after undergoing a dramatic<br />
expansion that saw its production<br />
batches increase from 700 litres<br />
to 10,000 litres, the equivalent<br />
of 77,000 litres of beer per week.<br />
This meant much higher speeds<br />
on its canning line.<br />
The Linx 8900 is able to handle<br />
the line’s current maximum speed<br />
of 200 cans per minute as well as<br />
higher speeds should throughput<br />
have to increase further as<br />
demand for Beavertown Brewery’s<br />
products continues to grow.<br />
Equally important, the printer can<br />
also cope with the line’s variable<br />
speed, ensuring code quality.<br />

The compact labeller can meet the needs of craft breweries or spirits bottlers<br />
to craft breweries but also to<br />
companies in the food and<br />
non-food industries, such<br />
as manufacturers of canned<br />
food, pet food or shampoo.”<br />
In its standard version,<br />
the Innoket Roland 40 comes<br />
with two cold glue stations.<br />
This allows shoulder and<br />
neck labels to be applied at<br />
two levels by the first station,<br />

Clever diaphragm pumps<br />
deliver low energy usage<br />
Aseries of intelligent<br />
diaphragm<br />
pumps has been<br />
implemented into Tapflo’s<br />
pump range portfolio.<br />
It means TC Intelligent<br />
pumps are now fitted<br />
with clever low energy air<br />
pump (LEAP) technology<br />
developed by the company.<br />
LEAP is a patented<br />
technology used in airoperated<br />
double diaphragm<br />
(AODD) pumps to reduce<br />
the operating air pressure.<br />
This is achieved by<br />
reducing internal losses<br />
and friction found in<br />
conventional AODD pumps.<br />
The LEAP technology was<br />
developed for an ultralow<br />
flow, high-pressure<br />
application utilising a double<br />
diaphragm pump with an<br />
electric power pack.<br />
Tapflo says the technology<br />
allows for sustainable energy<br />
management by achieving<br />
energy savings of up to 70%<br />
in operation.<br />
LEAP was first developed<br />
by Tapflo’s British team and<br />
consequently presented<br />
B&R is introducing new<br />
software components for<br />
controlling hydraulics<br />
applications. These<br />
components provide easier<br />
access to advanced closedloop<br />
control functions and<br />
assist developers in the<br />
design, simulation, virtual<br />
commissioning and diagnosis<br />
of hydraulic systems.<br />
B&R mapp Hydraulics<br />
provides numerous new<br />
functions, particularly for<br />
variable-speed pump drives.<br />
With the autotuning<br />
LEAP technology offers efficiency<br />
to Tapflo’s Group HQ in<br />
Sweden and also to the<br />
Polish manufacturing site.<br />
After being fully tested<br />
and approved to the group<br />
product standard, it has<br />
been implemented into the<br />
TC range. This new range is<br />
now available worldwide and<br />
distributed across<br />
six continents.<br />
The launch of LEAP meets<br />
the needs of users that<br />
have been requesting eco<br />
pumps in recent times that<br />
are able to reduce costs and<br />
provide a more sustainable<br />
use of energy, says business<br />
development manager at<br />
Tapflo Walter Bryce.<br />
In operation, the LEAP<br />
technology has allowed<br />
the pump to develop to<br />
give smooth, effective<br />
delivery at the lowest<br />
energy consumption.<br />
This technology shows<br />
efficiency improvements<br />
at all air pressures but the<br />
gains are most marked at<br />
low air pressures. Now,<br />
instead of starting at more<br />
than one bar with a possible<br />
tendency to stall at such<br />
pressures, a pump will start<br />
at as little as just 0.2 bar.<br />
The LEAP centre section<br />
can be dropped into any<br />
existing Tapflo pump offering<br />
attractive payback rates.<br />

ejector is a<br />
small option<br />
SMC has refreshed its ZH body<br />
ported type vacuum ejector so that<br />
it is more compact, lightweight<br />
and easy to mount. It also has<br />
an improved maximum suction<br />
flow rate, improving its overall<br />
effectiveness and functionality.<br />
The pneumatics company has<br />
updated its ZH Series vacuum<br />
ejector so that it is more compact<br />
in design, adaptable and can<br />
be used for a wider number of<br />
applications.<br />
Offering an improved<br />
maximum suction flow rate, the<br />
enhanced ZH is smaller and up<br />
to 74% lighter than the original<br />
series, delivering space savings<br />
and fewer inert moments when<br />
mounted in mobile applications,<br />
such as robot arms.<br />
It also comes with four<br />
mounting options – direct,<br />
standard bracket, L-bracket<br />
and DIN rail – giving customers<br />
greater choice and flexibility.<br />
These modifications make<br />
the ZH suitable for a range of<br />
applications such as packaging,<br />
palletising, materials handling,<br />
automatic assembly, automatic<br />
transport or pick and place in<br />
the semi-conductor, electrical,<br />
automotive, food and medical<br />
industries.<br />
“We are always striving to<br />
offer the very best solutions<br />
for our customers and the ZH<br />
is no exception,” said an SMC<br />
spokesperson. “This latest<br />
design gives customers working<br />
in manufacturing and assembly<br />
equipment several enhancements<br />
including greater suction<br />
capacity and adaptability for<br />
different conditions, by offering<br />
a combined one-touch and<br />

Components<br />
Drives give high availability<br />
and reliability to pasteurizers<br />
AUS-based manufacturer<br />
of bespoke machines<br />
for the food and<br />
beverage industry GC Evans<br />
is relying on drives from<br />
Nord Drivesystems to deliver<br />
high availability and also<br />
easy maintenance.<br />
“If a beverage pasteurizer<br />
were to have a drive failure,<br />
you are not only talking about<br />
lost product in the unit, but<br />
stopping a production line<br />
to the tune of potentially<br />
hundreds of thousands<br />
of dollars per hour,”<br />
explains David McNamer,<br />
manufacturing manager<br />
at GC Evans, US-based<br />
manufacturer of cooling and<br />
heating equipment for the<br />
food and beverage industry.<br />
“I do not want to worry about<br />
our drives and I do not want<br />
our customers to either which<br />
is why we choose Nord.”<br />
The company has been<br />
using Nord since 2008 and,<br />
says McNamer, not only were<br />
the units less costly than<br />
comparable competitors, but<br />
they were really high quality<br />
and well-engineered units.<br />
A resilient worm geared motor prevents gridlocks for bottles in transit<br />
“What impressed us the<br />
most was the level of service<br />
we received,” he says.<br />
Today, Nord drives are used<br />
in all GC Evans machines.<br />
For two recent orders, for<br />
instance, Nord has configured<br />
two conveyor drives with<br />
very high gear ratios for<br />
the company. One of these<br />
systems, a parallel shaft<br />
geared motor, moves 20,000<br />
jam jars, each weighing<br />
more than 1 kg, through a<br />
cooling tunnel. Its gearbox is<br />
configured with a 2,500:1 ratio<br />
to achieve an output speed of<br />
0.6 revolutions per minute.<br />
This drive system<br />
features various special<br />
options to meet the hygiene<br />
requirements of food<br />
processes: a very durable<br />
stainless steel finish, a<br />
food-grade gear lubricant,<br />
a vent plug, and an oil<br />
sight glass. The pressure<br />
relief vent plug from Nord<br />
regulates the air pressure in<br />
the gear units and motors<br />
from Nord are generally<br />
designed to withstand harsh<br />
environmental conditions.<br />
The second recent project<br />
for which Nord supplied a<br />
special drive system was a<br />
fruit juice pasteurizer with a<br />
slow-running conveyor belt:<br />
one bottle takes 45 minutes<br />
to pass through the 25m long<br />
machine. The hollow-shaft<br />
parallel shaft geared motor is<br />
mounted on the machine shaft<br />

64 MACHINERY UPDATE NOVEMBER/DECEMBER <strong>2017</strong> www.machineryupdate.co.uk<br />
Regulations<br />
Look at the complex<br />
world of assemblies<br />
Paul Laidler Taylor<br />
BUSINESS MANAGER DIRECTOR FOR MACHINERY FOR MACHINERY SAFETY SAFTEY AT TÜV AT SÜD TÜV PRODUCT SÜD PRODUCT SERVICE SERVICE<br />
Determining what is seen as an assembly of machines can be tricky and not something that you<br />
want to get wrong in terms of CE marking. Here’s a guide to working through the process<br />
Even though individual<br />
machines may comply<br />
with the Machinery<br />
Directive, when they become<br />
part of an assembly or<br />
production line, which links<br />
two or more machines, it is<br />
this entire assembly that is<br />
then considered to work as<br />
an integral whole and must<br />
therefore be CE marked as a<br />
new machine. Similarly, if<br />
modifications are carried out<br />
that alter the performance<br />
or function of a machine,<br />
or assembly of machines,<br />
this is considered to be<br />
creating an entirely new<br />
machine which warrants<br />
re-certification.<br />
The definition of assemblies<br />
of machinery indicates that<br />
assemblies are arranged<br />
and controlled so that they<br />
function as an integral whole<br />
in order to achieve the same<br />
end. For a group of units of<br />
machinery or partly completed<br />
machinery to be considered<br />
as an assembly of machinery,<br />
all of these criteria must be<br />
fulfilled:<br />
• The constituent units are<br />
assembled together in order<br />
to carry out a common<br />
function, for example,<br />
the production of a given<br />
product;<br />
• the constituent units are<br />
functionally linked in such<br />
a way that the operation<br />
of each unit directly affects<br />
the operation of other<br />
units or of the assembly<br />
as a whole, so that a risk<br />
assessment is necessary<br />
for the whole assembly;<br />
• the constituent units have<br />
a common control system.<br />
A group of machines that<br />
are connected to each other,<br />
but where each machine<br />
functions independently of<br />
the others is not considered<br />
as an assembly of machinery<br />
in the above sense.<br />
Under the Machinery<br />
Directive, the system<br />
integrator/end user that has<br />
created the machine assembly<br />
from separate units is<br />
responsible for ensuring that<br />
the assembly complies with<br />
the Directive’s essential health<br />
and safety requirements.<br />
This is most likely the case,<br />
as it is common practice for<br />
manufacturers of separate<br />
machines to place them<br />
on the market as complete<br />
machinery, which could<br />
operate independently, or as<br />
partly completed machinery<br />
that will then be assembled<br />
into a larger unit.<br />
DECLARATION NEEDED<br />
However, if the organisation<br />
buys the entire assembly from<br />
an original manufacturer,<br />
it must bear the CE marking<br />
and be accompanied by a<br />
Declaration of Conformity.<br />
If machines are placed on the<br />
market as partly completed<br />
machinery, they should<br />
not have the CE marking<br />
applied, but must instead be<br />
accompanied by a Declaration<br />
of Incorporation and the<br />
assembly instructions.<br />
It is then the machinery<br />
system integrator/end user’s<br />
responsibility to ensure<br />
compliance and apply the<br />
CE marking process to the<br />
entire assembly.<br />
DO A RISK ASSESSMENT<br />
If the constituent parts are<br />
functionally linked in such<br />
a way that each unit affects<br />
the operation of the others,<br />
a risk assessment of the<br />
whole assembly is necessary.<br />
The risk assessment<br />
must cover the suitability<br />
Creating a machine assembly<br />
can be a complex process but<br />
guidelines from the HSE can help<br />
of the separate units for the<br />
safe operation of the entire<br />
assembly, and potential<br />
hazards resulting from the<br />
interaction between them.<br />
It must also cover any hazards<br />
that are not covered by the<br />
Declaration of Conformity, the<br />
Declaration of Incorporation<br />
and the assembly instructions<br />
for the individual units.<br />
These three document types<br />
must also be included within<br />
the machine assembly’s<br />
technical file.<br />
The machinery assembly<br />
must be designed and<br />
constructed in such a way that<br />
the stop controls, including the<br />
emergency stop devices, can<br />
stop not only the machinery<br />
itself but also all related<br />
equipment, if its continued<br />
operation may be dangerous.<br />
Where individual machines<br />
making up an installation<br />
are not linked together via<br />
a main control system, this<br />
would not be classed as an<br />
assembly of machines under<br />
the Machinery Directive.<br />
The technical file must<br />
document any modifications<br />
that have been made to<br />
the separate units, when<br />
incorporating them into the<br />
assembly. Also, during its<br />
lifetime, one or more units of<br />
an existing assembly may be<br />
replaced by new ones, or new<br />
units added to an existing<br />
assembly. For such machinery<br />
in service, under regulation 10<br />
of PUWER, the employer must<br />
ensure that the conformity<br />
and safety of the machinery<br />
is maintained throughout its<br />
working life.<br />
CE MARKING PROVISION<br />
When a machine assembly<br />
is first created, or later has<br />
substantial changes made,<br />
a full CE marking and<br />
Provision and Use of Work<br />
Equipment Regulations<br />
(PUWER) assessment must<br />
be completed before that<br />
machine can be returned to<br />
service. Guidelines from<br />
sources such as the Health<br />
and Safety Executive as<br />
well as a thorough<br />
understanding of the<br />
Machinery Directive will<br />
bring clarity to the process.<br />
