Dairy ingredients<br />
Small scale dairy plants requiring a<br />
hygienic powder filling solution in<br />
a compact form can select the GEA<br />
SmartFil M1 with auger feed, deaeration<br />
(option) and continuous heatsealer<br />
with integrated fold-over. This is a<br />
cost effective, high quality solution for<br />
their powder packing operation. When<br />
integrated with a downline bag handling<br />
system, this cost-effective semiautomatic<br />
solution <strong>pro</strong>vides high quality, accurate<br />
filling and closing of open-mouth, multiwall<br />
bags. For aluminum foil bags, the<br />
sealing system can be changed to an<br />
impulse type sealer as required.<br />
Pet food<br />
The GEA SmartFil M1 can be configured<br />
to pack granular <strong>pro</strong>ducts, such as<br />
dried pet food, into laminated paper/<br />
poly<strong>pro</strong>pylene sacks that require a sewn<br />
closure. The vibratory feeder <strong>pro</strong>vides a<br />
gentle metering option, which can be<br />
coupled with the sealer/sewing system<br />
for effective closure.<br />
Safety first<br />
Product safety is important to all food/<br />
pet food <strong>pro</strong>cessing companies. The<br />
GEA SmartFil M1 is certified according<br />
to current hygiene standards. GEA<br />
integrated technology elements, which<br />
secure <strong>pro</strong>duct safety focused on special<br />
areas of the <strong>pro</strong>cess.<br />
Being a semi-automatic operation,<br />
it is important that the filling system<br />
is easily accessible for cleaning. This<br />
was part of the design concept. Low<br />
height, accessible components make<br />
maintenance and cleaning operations<br />
easier, thereby minimizing potential<br />
machine downtime and lost <strong>pro</strong>duction.<br />

Baby elephants in<br />
Kenya need our help.<br />
Drought, poaching and habitat loss is leading<br />
calves to become orphaned. Like Roho, whose<br />
mother died when he was just an infant.<br />
Roho was rescued by the Sheldrick Wildlife<br />
Trust, who are pioneers in the hand-rearing of<br />
milk dependent baby elephants so that they<br />
can return to the wild when grown. He will<br />
need specialist milk and care for up to 10 years<br />
and you can help ensure his future by adopting<br />
him today.<br />
