Container Handling Equipment
Handling systems for connecting single machines to create an ‘intelligent’ packaging system, the conveyors can handle a wide variety of packages and include many innovative features for improved performance and flexibility.
Specific installation requirements and peculiar package features determine on a case-by-case basis the technical requirements of each conveyor system needed to transfer each package in the best way.
GEA secondary packaging conveyors work any type of pack (shrink-wraps, carton boxes, crates, trays) customizing layout and production speed. Stainless steel is used as required by the hygienic design of each machine.
Key product features include: a wide range of dividers/combiners for packs; lateral guides adjustment, manual with hand wheels or fully automatic, with quick references; elevators/lowerators with rubber belts; and swinging systems for vertical exchange between lines.
GEA is a specialist in automation systems for high-speed conveying lines for containers. As such it believes in the continuous development of line automation, an information network that transforms a group of machines into a high efficiency plant. The automation systems feature speed modulation using inverters (installed in the remote power board or near-field) to reduce power consumption and noise. Remote field PLC devices are used to optimize installations that have a high concentration of inputs and outputs.

Agilis is a palletizer with high level product infeed and a vertical lift pallet loading system.

Agilis is also available with a pack divider or manipulator to speed-up the production and/or to secure uns...

Low level infeed mono–column type palletizer Artis EVO features a steady pallet loading system and an innovative layer pick-up head. It is suitable for medium/high production capacity.

As ilhas robóticas Omnia são especialmente adequadas para linhas de baixa e média velocidade e quando é necessária uma alta flexibilidade, graças ao recurso de paletização/despaletização simultânea e à troca rápida dos cabeçotes de agarre. Elas representam um investimento de valor de longo prazo.

‘Intelligent’ systems for transferring packages between machines that form part of a packaging line, the conveyors can handle a wide variety of packages and include many innovative features for improved performance and flexibility.

A termoformagem há muito tempo desempenha um papel fundamental na embalagem de alimentos. Agora, ela está passando por uma grande mudança. À medida que as regulamentações se tornam mais rigorosas, os materiais evoluem e os custos aumentam, as linhas de moldagem, enchimento/envase e selagem precisam fazer mais do que apenas operar de forma confiável - elas agora determinam como os alimentos permanecem frescos, acessíveis e recicláveis. Confira as principais tendências em termoformagem que estão moldando o cenário das embalagens e distribuição de alimentos.

Dos pomares do Cabo às prateleiras de lojas em 40 países, a empresa sul-africana de armazenamento Betko construiu seu negócio com base no frescor, no timing e na confiabilidade. Com a tecnologia de refrigeração em atmosfera controlada da GEA, a empresa agora pode conservar maçãs e peras por até 14 meses e reduzir o consumo de energia em 20%, graças a uma parceria de mais de 30 anos que está no centro de tudo isso.
