Hovmand: 50th anniversary
Hovmand can look back on its 50th anniversary this year. Since
its foundation in 1972, the market leader in mobile lifting equipment
has helped numerous companies in the manufacturing,
food, pharmaceutical and chemical industries, the retail trade and
also public institutions to achieve greater ergonomics, efficiency
and productivity in the handling of raw materials and materials. At
FACHPACK the exhibition stand became a birthday lounge.
By using Hovmand's mobile lever solutions, the downtime of packaging
machines can be reduced: Not only is the film change faster,
it is also less often necessary because larger rolls can be used. Employees
can also change film rolls on their own and are protected
from accidents and injuries caused by incorrect lifting.
Hovmand also offers ergonomic solutions for lifting, stacking and
transporting crates, cartons or KLTs, which will also be on show at
FACHPACK.

OPTIMA:
Sustainable turnkey solutions
At Optima, the focus is on sustainability. With this in mind, the Optima
Group acquired a stake in the Weyhmüller company in June.
Weyhmüller manufactures special machines for the production of
paper cups and cans. Optima can thus offer holistic and sustainable
turnkey solutions - from packaging development to the inline
production of sustainable paper packaging, packaging and sealing
to the resource-saving operation of the systems.

SÜDPACK and SN Maschinenbau:
Sustainable packaging concept
With the versatile PP- or PE-based Pure-Line portfolio, SÜDPACK
and SN Maschinenbau are jointly presenting an innovative and at
the same time sustainable solution for the pouch packaging of
a wide range of products. SÜDPACK's fully recyclable packaging
concept will be on show on the new FME 20 form-fill-seal machine.
The innovation from SN Maschinenbau is a low-cost, flexible and
compact pouch packaging machine for producing, filling and sealing
3- and 4-rim seal pouches as well as stand-up pouches. The
pouches can be filled and sealed with products of different consistencies
via corresponding dosing devices. Modern recyclable
materials such as PurePP or PurePE can be processed easily and
without any loss of speed or quality, with an output of up to 180
pouches per minute.
The FME 20 convinces with proven SN technology and enables
an easy entry into the world of flexible pouch packaging. It is designed
as a simple and economical pouch packaging machine and
is very easy to operate. The central pouch gripper adjustment as
well as the optimised height adjustment of the folding wedge contribute
to a reduction in format changeover times and simplify the
operation of the machine.
