BASTIA UMBRA, ITALY - Improving productivity by monitoring the complete system in a facility will be easier in future, thanks to an innovative software solution that Concetti of Bastia Umbra, Italy - a provider of weighing, bagging and palletising systems - has implemented on one of its most popular machines, the Form, fill & seal for chemical granules.

This solution, for a smarter “Industry 4.0” factory, offers management the possibility to supervise and review runs of historical data, by checking the production trends and performance of the bagging machine. This powerful solution is helping to reduce plant shutdown times and increase competitiveness by reducing costs.

The system has been developed internally by Concetti engineers, starting with the versatile Ignition application software platform, that unifies all the major software layers in today's manufacturing facilities - SCADA, MES, HMI - into a single solution to record, monitor and analyze the data provided by Concetti equipment, divided by number of bags, production shifts, operators, time intervals, alarm history and so on.

Moreover, the software can acquire data from several Concetti machines, providing a complete view of the production system over time and uses analysis tools to make the process more efficient.
It is a pc panel with a touchscreen interface that combines user-friendliness and the ability to track and display data collected by management in real-time.

The Data Acquisition Software utilizes the industry's most up-to-date technologies and can be fully customized and installed on any type of machine manufactured by Concetti, providing analysis to improve resource management and plant productivity, reduce costs and increase competitiveness.

All machines made by Concetti can also be integrated, interconnected and monitored remotely. For these features, Concetti has received Bureau Veritas's "Industry 4.0 ready" attestation of conformity, for the benefits provided by the 2017 Stability Law, also known in Italy as “Industry 4.0 for packaging machines”.

> SMART EVOLUTION 

Concetti will be partecipating at the upcoming Interpack exhibition in Düsseldorf, Germany. Interpack, the world leading processing and packaging trade fair, will take place from 4 to 10 May 2017 at Messe Düsseldorf.

We are looking forward to seeing you at our stand, Hall 14 – D31.

During the Interpack, Concetti will exhibit the innovative and smart FFS-Evolution bagging machine that forms, fills and seals 5-50 bags of free flowing pellet and granular products, from a continuous reel of tubular PE film. This fully automatic line, designed for the petrochemical industry, is equipped with an anthropomorphic robot palletiser, the fastest and most versatile model for the point – to – point movement.

Form Fill Seal (FFS) machines are packaging machines that form fill and seal a package on the same machine. The bag is cut and formed from a continuous reel, then filled and sealed before emerging as a finished pack. 

Concetti FFS bagging machines are highly sophisticated featuring easy to use operator interfaces and control networks. Greater speed and versatility are the major benefits of FFS systems for user companies.

Concetti is platform-ready for Industry 4.0, sometimes called the next industrial revolution.

Visit us at Interpack 2017, our experts would be pleased to present the latest packaging solutions for the dry bulk industry and show the machine in action.

Concetti has recently supplied a multi-station ‘Continua’ tubular FFS system for cement premixes to Volteco Italia, a specialist provider of waterproofing solutions for the construction industry.

The new line takes advantage of the latest developments in PE film technology coupled with Concetti’s advanced tubular Form, Fill Seal systems to package these cementitious premixes in secure, clean, colourful and well presented bags that can release excess air but still safely be stored outside without detriment to the product.

These new FFS systems will appeal to cementitious premix producers who are increasingly bringing new products to world markets for specialised uses in building and construction.

January will be the month dedicated to Russian marketplace. Concetti is pleased to announce its participation at “MVC: Cereals – Mixed Feed – Veterinary - 2017” taking place from January the 31st till February the 2nd, 2017, Moscow.

Concetti Group is pleased to announce that it has designed, made and successfully tested the first automatic bagging line of precipitated amorphous silica for J.M. Huber Corporation. The excellent engineering and technological level reached by the Concetti in almost 100 years of technological history and the tests accuracy have ensured a high level production performance.

Below is the press release issued by Huber Corporation

HUBER ANNOUNCES NEW INNOVATIVE PACKAGING LAUNCH FOR PRECIPITATED AMORPHOUS SILICA

Huber Engineered Materials, a division of J.M. Huber Corporation, announces the launch of a new packaging concept implemented at its Havre de Grace, Maryland (U.S.), precipitated amorphous silica production facility.

The innovative, multi-million dollar packaging system replaces paper bags with a conversion to more robust polyethylene bags. The improved bags offer stronger tensile strength, minimization of nuisance dust and greater control of moisture to maintain the integrity of the material inside. Elimination of trapped air within each bag yields excellent stacking for more stable pallets during shipment, unloading, and warehousing. The new packaging is also easily recyclable which is integral to Huber's commitment to sustainability.

"Our investment in this area is in direct response to increasing customer and regulatory needs for stronger and more secure packaging," says Jon Fecteau, Global Director of Product Management for Huber's Silica Business Unit. "Not only do the polyethylene bags offer superior performance, they also provide increased printing and labeling options. We are pleased to be able to provide this best in market option for many of our high quality silica products."

The new packaging platform is being introduced systematically across the globe with equipment in place for select production facilities in the European and Americas regions, with the intention to introduce in Asia in 2017.

Huber is a global leader in precipitated silica with seven manufacturing sites strategically located across North America, Europe and Asia.
