GEA H-Packer SO
High speed Packaging system specifically designed for long cut pasta.
The system is entirely managed by brushless motors and it is mainly composed of:
• Double dosers, each one consisting in a weighing unit and a volumetric finishing system to reach the final weight; adjustable feeding channels, which enable the handling of various long cut pasta formats;
• Horizontal packaging machine composed of an automatic film splicing device, managed through PLC and motion control boards.
Thanks to its patented technology, GEA developed the latest generation of stripping sealing jaws, able to reduce at the minimum the scraps in the sealing area, thus improving the overall quality of the bag. The special MCR/STRIPPING sealing jaws assembly is the best solution available on the market for the time being to the growing problem related to the production of bags with pasta scraps in the horizontal seals. One of the unique features of these jaws, which are controlled by an independent brush-less motor, is the possibility to work in two different conditions: MCR traditional operation and STRIPPING action which cleans the seal area just before sealing. The shift to either operation is mechanic.
Machine Performance (Referred to 500 g bags of Spaghetti 1.7 mm diameter, length 260 mm).
• Packaging speed (MCR sealing jaws): up to 120 bags per minute;
• Packaging speed (Stripping sealing jaws): up to 100 bags per minute.

A new recipe for indulgence
What if your favorite chocolate didn’t require cocoa beans and your coffee was locally produced? As climate disruption, price hikes and ethical concerns hit two of our most beloved indulgences, scientists are reimagining how we produce them – using microbes, not monocultures. The goal: preserve the flavor and properties of coffee and chocolate while minimizing carbon emissions and improving food resilience.
Fueling the circular economy in shipping
Ports now compete not just on logistics, but on sustainability. At Greece’s Piraeus port, an advanced processing and recovery facility recycles ship waste oil into fuel. Equipped with GEA’s high-performance centrifuges, it sets a new benchmark for state-of-the-art, environmentally responsible port operations.
Closing the loop: key lessons for breweries from OeTTINGER
The 2022 CO2 shortage forced breweries to review their dependency on global supply chains. Many were forced to close, unable to carbonate their products. At its breweries in Germany, OeTTINGER GETRÄNKE is turning its own CO2 into a powerful lever for independence and sustainability – with the help of CO2 recovery technology from GEA.
