The Industrial activity
started in the year
1975 with the production of systems
designed on custom to position a
single gadget, into
Corn Flakes box.
It has been used for large campaign requiring production
rate up to 3000 gadgets per minute, achieving an accuracy
of 99,96 %,
Such supply allowed our customer Kellogg's to be the
first one on the market to operate with full automatic
Systems with remarkable reduction of costs and high operative
performances.
This success led our Project Department to develop
extremely flexible systems able to be suited to various
typologies of product favouring the entrance of our
company in other markets such as:
frozen food industry where we realized systems to position
frozen parts into the trays containing pre-cooked foods.
confectionery industry where we realized systems to
fill assorted candies into box up to a maximum of 18
different flavours per box, operating at the speed
of 300 box / min
The wide feedback from the market related to our way
of handling irregular shape pieces took us to the chocolate
industry for which we have developed systems for the
process cycle relevant to the production of chocolate
pralines for which industry have been developed
extremely rapid and accurate Units able to deposit
generic nuts,
not calibrated, sometime cut nuts, into the single
cavity of chocolate production mould.
These technologies, patented all around the world,
allowed our company to maintain the worldwide
leadership in the deposit of single
ingredients toward the production
lines which are more and more skilled. Maximum speed
achieved is 46,000 pieces/min. counted and deposited
into the mould cavity.
International primary companies such as Nestlè,
Masterfood, Cadbury, Hershey, Leaf, Lindt & Sprüngly,
Godiva, Kellogg's, General Mills and Storck have been
our main customers for decades recurring to our Systems
when
they need flexible Units operating at high operative
speed able to achieve high accuracy.
Furthermore, during the last 12 years we have extended the research for new
applications to realize Dynamic Feeding Systems to feed high
speed packaging machine such as flow wrappers moving in continuous motion. The main characteristic
of these system is the one of picking up the single pieces on the production
line in motion and organize them to be positioned to generic wrapper machines
in motion.
To realize such Systems, have been used components of new technology produced
by leader companies such as Siemens, and Rockwell Automation.
One of our requested system is the Flexible
Distributor for matrix
of single chocolate that is able to transfer
in continuous way 3000 pieces/min toward 6 independent
flow-wrappers.
Such system has requested the simultaneous running
of 32 servomotors operating on Rockwell Automation
Kinetix platform.
Currently our studies and Searches Centre are operating
on vision system technology
integrated with our Dynamic Transfer.
