UV-C disinfection using<br />
split technology<br />
Sterilsystems GmbH, based in<br />
Mauterndorf, Salzburg Land, Austria,<br />
can look back on more than 25<br />
years of experience in the development,<br />
production and installation<br />
of UV-C disinfection systems.<br />
Reason enough to showcase the<br />
new UV-C continuous disinfection<br />
system DE1500 in hygienic design<br />
and split technology to the visitors<br />
The benefit: the goods or packaging<br />
placed on the conveyor belt are<br />
automaticallyguided through the<br />
disinfection system and have<br />
unwanted microorganisms removed<br />
at a360° angle, i.e. from all four<br />
sides, in ahighlyefficient manner.<br />
As aresult, an irradiation rate of<br />
99.99% is achieved even from<br />
below on the conveyor belt. This<br />
reduces the number of germs by up<br />
to 5log. The UV-C radiation emitted<br />
inside the hygienic design housing<br />
immediatelyeliminates germs and<br />
other undesirable microorganisms<br />
such as bacteria, viruses, yeasts<br />
and mold spores; without heat and<br />
without any chemicals on apurely<br />
physical basis. The continuous<br />
disinfection system is made of<br />
high-quality, acid and alkali-resistant<br />
stainless steel with avery high<br />
surface quality and meets the<br />
highest hygiene requirements. The<br />
conveyor belt runs particularly<br />
quietlyand the front-end electronics<br />
and motor control are located in<br />
awaterproof stainless steel switch<br />
box.<br />

Automation and<br />
productivity<br />
Fresh food industries are high<br />
demanding which require the<br />
maximum reliability and hygiene.<br />
The Ulma Packaging GmbH (Illertissen,<br />
Germany) is aware that the<br />
success of its clients depends on<br />
the quality of their products, and<br />
therefore on the packaging. For<br />
this reason, Ulma can ensure top<br />
quality, individual solutions for<br />
product packaging requirements.<br />
Ulma will show for the first time<br />
its latest high production traysealer.The<br />
new TSA 1200 traysealer<br />
has asealing area of 1200 x<br />
500 mm which allows to seal much<br />
more trays per cycle than other<br />
traysealers.<br />
This machine has been also<br />
designed for double line which is a<br />
requirement for this kind of high<br />
production traysealers. In the field<br />
of vertical wrappers, the new<br />
Tight-Bag system will be shown<br />
with the VTC 840 which is also a<br />
wash down machine with ahygienic<br />
design. The Tight-Bag has<br />
been speciallydeveloped on<br />
Ulma's vertical wrappers in order to<br />
preserve the quality of the product<br />
by optimizing the required volume<br />
of the bags. At the volume optimization<br />
level which can be adjusted<br />
by the control panel, it has<br />
the same advantages as the traditional<br />
systems that perforate the<br />
bags but in this case, since there<br />
are no perforations there is no risk<br />
of contaminating the product.<br />
Another interesting installation<br />
will be shown with the FV 35 SD<br />
wash down machine for the Flow-<br />
Vacsystem. Using patent-pending<br />
technology, Ulma has developed a<br />
simple solution to automate the<br />
feeding of abelt vacuum chamber<br />
on both sealing bars. Packages are<br />
sealed onlyonone end and prepared<br />
to be transferred to the<br />
buffering belt of the vacuum<br />
chamber with the open end facing<br />
both seal bars on the vacuum<br />
chamber.A90° transfer system<br />
pairs the packages to the buffering<br />
belt of the vacuum chamber so<br />
that both seal bars can be utilized.<br />
If the products are not small<br />
enough to be paired, an autodetect<br />
system will load the product<br />
as asingle item. This automated<br />
system increases productivity and<br />
reduces labor costs. The packaging<br />
system is ideal for the meat<br />
industry.<br />
