20 MACHINERY UPDATE NOVEMBER/DECEMBER <strong>2020</strong> www.machineryupdate.co.uk New <strong>Machinery</strong> Quick Ship Programme across inspection range New forming set advancements Forming set makes new baggers easy BW Flexible Systems’ design and engineering teams have introduced TruFORM which it describes as the next generation of forming set technology for the flexible packaging market. Re-engineered from the ground up, TruFORM is both lighter and more adept at handling various films and so offers users superior performance. The forming set is an integral part of flexible packaging equipment as the machine wraps film around the set to form it into bags, while simultaneously delivering product through the set into the newly formed bags. FORMING UPGRADE With updates to packaging machinery and new types of film in the market, the forming set was due for an upgrade. Because forming sets are handled frequently in many locations to meet increasing changeover requirements, TruFORM leverages the strength and durability of previous BW Flexible designs, but it is approximately 30% lighter. The updated technology also improves film handling, allowing users to reduce wasted film, effort and time during operation. TruFORM is available now as an upgrade for existing Ultima vertical bagger installations and with new Ultima machines. In the future, TruFORM will also be a standard forming set on new Hayssen flexible packaging equipment. T 0115 967 8787 W www.bwflexiblesystems.com Mettler-Toledo Product Inspection has launched a Configureto-Order (CTO), 10 - 15 (working) day Quick Ship Programme for Garvens’ C33 checkweighers and Safeline X33 and X34 x-ray systems. Effective immediately, the programme significantly improves product inspection equipment lead times. The C33 Quick Ship checkweighers function in dry production environments and are available in six configurations to help meet specific weighing needs quickly. The programme allows manufacturers to add a new checkweigher to their line (or replace an existing weighing solution) within a streamlined, rapid design and delivery process. The X33 and X34 Quick Ship Programmes are ideal for manufacturers requiring a fast, efficient solution to inspect their small and medium sized packaged products at a throughput rate of up to 300 products In the second half of next year, Shemesh Automation will unveil a 200 ppm (packs per minute) turnkey filling line for canister wipes. Called the TKS-200, it is an extension of the proven TKS-60 and TKS-120 models and is designed to run at a consistent speed of 200 ppm and a maximum of 220 – 240 ppm. As well as higher speeds, the unit is designed to also offer production consistency, accuracy and user satisfaction. The first demonstrations of The new service aims to deliver equipment like this X33 x-ray system quicker per minute. Highly sensitive detection capabilities ensure that each package is inspected for contaminants including shards of metal, glass, mineral stone, calcified bone and high-density plastics and rubber. Simultaneously, both systems perform quality and packaging integrity checks to ensure brand protection. “This year, the Coronavirus pandemic has impacted demand for food products in an unprecedented manner,” explains Mike Pipe, head of global sales & product management at Mettler- Toledo Product Inspection. Shemesh Automation’s new machine for canister wipes will be very speedy this new unit are planned to take place in the US. “As such, we have designed our Quick Ship programmes to help manufacturers quickly respond to product demands thereby ensuring that all goods leaving their facilities meet stringent food safety compliance requirements and are safe for consumers.” The Quick Ship Programmes offer manufacturers a high level of flexibility of check weighing and x-ray inspection system specifications and the configurable options.
