processing Dairy ingredients Small scale dairy plants requiring a hygienic powder filling solution in a compact form can select the GEA SmartFil M1 with auger feed, deaeration (option) and continuous heatsealer with integrated fold-over. This is a cost effective, high quality solution for their powder packing operation. When integrated with a downline bag handling system, this cost-effective semiautomatic solution provides high quality, accurate filling and closing of open-mouth, multiwall bags. For aluminum foil bags, the sealing system can be changed to an impulse type sealer as required. Pet food The GEA SmartFil M1 can be configured to pack granular products, such as dried pet food, into laminated paper/ polypropylene sacks that require a sewn closure. The vibratory feeder provides a gentle metering option, which can be coupled with the sealer/sewing system for effective closure. Safety first Product safety is important to all food/ pet food processing companies. The GEA SmartFil M1 is certified according to current hygiene standards. GEA integrated technology elements, which secure product safety focused on special areas of the process. Being a semi-automatic operation, it is important that the filling system is easily accessible for cleaning. This was part of the design concept. Low height, accessible components make maintenance and cleaning operations easier, thereby minimizing potential machine downtime and lost production.

Like Roho, whose mother died when he was just an infant. Roho was rescued by the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, who are pioneers in the hand-rearing of milk dependent baby elephants so that they can return to the wild when grown. He will need specialist milk and care for up to 10 years and you can help ensure his future by adopting him today.

processing Sorters for Pet Foods Key Technology, a member of the Duravant family of operating companies, has introduced its VERYX® digital sorters for pet food products. VERYX, which integrates seamlessly with Key’s other high class material handling systems, finds and removes foreign material (FM) and products with defects to improve product quality, eliminate the chance of cross-contamination and protect brands, all while minimizing labor. VERYX can be configured to sort a wide range of pet foods. When installed at the end of the line, it helps ensure final product quality for kibble, chews and treats including dried, dehydrated and freeze-dried products. When installed upstream near raw receiving, it inspects ingredients such as frozen proteins and other ingredients for wet pet foods. By detecting the color, size, shape and/ or structural properties of every object, VERYX removes plastics, glass, paper and other FM, as well as product defects, as defined by each pet food processor. “Our vibratory conveyors and mechanical grading systems have had a strong presence in this industry for a long time – almost every leading pet food brand around the world relies on our equipment, and we understand their unique needs. Now that these processors are seeing the value of digital sorting, we’ve leveraged our pet food application expertise to develop VERYX for these applications,” said Marco Azzaretti, Director of Marketing at Key. “Consumers are demanding higher and higher quality pet food, and VERYX can help manufacturers elevate their product quality to the level of human grade while improving the efficiency of their operation.” Key can integrate VERYX with a variety of their vibratory and mechanical grading solutions for transferring, scalping, size separation, fines removal, product distribution and more. Iso- Flo®, Impulse®, Zephyr and Marathon® vibratory conveyors, as well as their rotary separation equipment, are all suitable for pet foods, depending on the application. Built for rugged reliability, Key’s material handling solutions enhance sanitation with features such as open designs, fullywelded frames, nickel-plated finishes, oilfree drives, optional pan covers and more. Each VERYX is tailored with the optimal cameras, laser scanners, lighting, ejection system, product handling and software to meet each customer’s specific requirements. Utilizing in-air inspection, VERYX sees all sides of the product with no blind spots. Next-generation cameras and laser scanners offer twice the resolution of previous sensor technology to find smaller FM and defects. Available in different widths, VERYX satisfies a wide range of capacity requirements. To maximize FM and defect removal, VERYX can be equipped with Key’s proprietary Pixel Fusion technology, which combines signals from multiple cameras and laser scanners at the image pixel level to more clearly identify even the > extruders > feeders > components > pneumatic conveying > complete systems COPERION’S ZSK Mv PLUS.
