Klockner Bartelt: Push-button changeover poucher

Said to be the first horizontal poucher with push-button changeover and wash-down capability, the Fusion(TM) from Klckner Bartelt (Sarasota, FL) employs 20 multi-axis servos.

Dec 31, 1998

With technology protected by five patents, the system can run in continuous- or intermittent-motion modes at speeds to 160/min. Can handle flat, gusseted or stand-up pouches in sizes up to 15 x 18 x 6". Modular design permits up to six fill stations. Nema 4 electrics and stainless construction permit washdown.

USPP’s new position paper outlines when physical or chemical recycling are appropriate, why mechanical recycling remains the priority, and what safeguards are needed to protect communities and support true circularity.

USPP Clarifies Physical and Chemical Recycling’s Place in Circularity

The U.S, Plastic Pact defines where physical and chemical recycling fit and the safeguards needed to ensure it complements, rather than replaces, mechanical systems.

A canned beverage manufacturer used a digital twin of its case and tray packing line to diagnose a persistent “yo-yo effect” fault. By testing virtually instead of on the live line, the team accelerated troubleshooting 10×, reduced downtime by 52%, and improved OEE by 14%.

How These Two CPGs Boosted OEE and Speed With Digital Twins

Dwayne Negron, digital twin capability manager at Kalypso, a Rockwell business, noted that more end users are “bringing in digital twin requirements on first pass to their contracts.
