Installation PPMA Southern News Show Manufacturing Preview Review<br />
Two labellers will<br />
be demonstrated<br />
on a larger stand<br />
Langguth UK has a bigger<br />
stand this year that is allowing<br />
two labelling machines to be<br />
demonstrated; a large, fully<br />
automated, high speed machine<br />
as well as a semi-automatic<br />
desktop machine.<br />
Langguth Labelling Machinery<br />
offers wet glue and hotmelt and<br />
self-adhesive labelling technology<br />
to its customers. The machines<br />
are built in Germany, but the sales<br />
and after-sales support is local.<br />
A UK based spares and service<br />
team, including skilled local<br />
engineers, means support is<br />
always available.<br />
UK LABELLING NEEDS<br />
“We’re pleased to be exhibiting<br />
again at this year’s PPMA<br />
Show to discuss any labelling<br />
requirements visitors might have,”<br />
says Langguth UK director James<br />
Causebrook. “We want to give the<br />
show visitors the opportunity to<br />
meet the people behind Langguth<br />
UK, so a team of engineers and<br />
sales support staff will be on hand<br />
to discuss labelling solutions best<br />
suited to any requirements and to<br />
give expert advice,” he says.<br />

Monobloc filler launch<br />
brings operational gain<br />
Adelphi Manufacturing<br />
is launching a new<br />
<strong>Res</strong>ponse monobloc<br />
filler at the PPMA Show<br />
which, the company says,<br />
provides many advantages<br />
for customers compared <strong>with</strong><br />
traditional inline packaging<br />
systems. It also offers benefits<br />
to clients in the vaping,<br />
cosmetics and pharmaceutical<br />
industries many of which<br />
have already expressed<br />
interest in the new unit.<br />
Built to pharmaceutical<br />
standards, the hygienic<br />
monobloc is a single-head filler<br />
capable of filling containers<br />
from 3 to 250 ml, at speeds<br />
in the region of 30 fills per<br />
minute. With easy-to-use HMI<br />
touch screen controls and<br />
quick strip-down, it is said<br />
to improve productivity.<br />
“Not only can the monobloc be<br />
fully stripped in 10 minutes,<br />
it is also quick and easy to<br />
change parts from one fill size<br />
container to another,” explains<br />
Adelphi associate director<br />
Nicola Jones.<br />
A major improvement is the<br />
footprint of the machine which<br />
The new monobloc from Adelphi Manufacturing will be shown at the NEC<br />
has been drastically reduced.<br />
This, in turn, saves customers<br />
vital space compared to inline<br />
systems. Lengthy composite<br />
conveyor systems <strong>with</strong><br />
several individual machines<br />
are replaced by compatible<br />
components surrounding<br />
a single star wheel.<br />
Adelphi’s monobloc has<br />
also been designed to save<br />
customers money, compared<br />
to the cost of purchasing all of<br />
the separate machines required<br />
in an inline system.<br />
The single star wheel completely<br />
synchronises packaging<br />
processes, and this simple,<br />
intuitive set-up also provides<br />
the benefit of reduced labour<br />
costs compared to the average<br />
inline packaging system.<br />

Latest inspection equipment includes a new feature to allow<br />
quicker set up while reducing false rejects in manufacturing<br />
Heuft will demonstrate further<br />
developments for the in-line<br />
quality inspection of products<br />
and packaging which puts the<br />
safety of food at the forefront<br />
as well as discussing the new<br />
reflexx II which allows specific<br />
teaching in of individual<br />
quality requirements across<br />
the technologies offered by<br />
the company.<br />
This allows quicker set up<br />
and reduces false rejects that<br />
can be an issue <strong>with</strong> some<br />
‘teach in’ mchine features,<br />
says the company.<br />
The Heuft ONE for code<br />
verification, marking and<br />
label inspection detects best<br />
before and expiry dates,<br />
barcodes and 2D codes, article<br />
and serial numbers, imprints<br />
and lettering which have been<br />
incorrectly applied and are<br />
inaccurate. The same also<br />
applies to deviating logos as<br />
well as non-brand colouring<br />
and design elements.<br />
On the stand, this unit will<br />
include a new high-resolution,<br />
smart colour camera that<br />
offers users versatile easy to<br />
set code checking and network<br />
capability for data transfer<br />
from the Heuft device.<br />
Also shown will be<br />
the eXaminer II XB<br />
top-down foreign body<br />
detection machine<br />
<strong>with</strong> special pulsed<br />
x-ray technology to<br />
deliver accurate and<br />
reliable detection of<br />
contaminants such as<br />
metals, glass, stone<br />
and bone.<br />
