The annual ARC Automation Forum isn’t supposed to be about packaging. But with automation at the very heart of improving packaging performance, this has become an increasingly important event for packagers to attend.
At the IPACK-IMA show in Milan, The PFM Group introduced their new Scirocco Flow Packer with Vision System Robot, including a Super Long Dwell high-speed cross sealing system and automated, vision-assisted infeed system.
In a recent conversation with Doug Gray, engineering project manager at Coors, on the subject of automation technology, a number of issues and concerns about packaging machinery automation and integration surfaced.
PFM Packaging Machinery (PELV booth C-826) will introduce its new Scirocco Flow Packer with Vision System Robot, configured for pharmaceutical packaging. The solution includes a cross-sealing system that increases the Scirocco’s speed to 200 ppm by optimizing sealing temperature, pressure and dwell to maximize the sealing portion of a cycle.
Diverse range of participants demonstrates European interest in contributing to the upcoming standard, from CPG leaders to OEMs to technology providers to associations
