PETpla.net Insider 10 / 2013

TRADE SHOW PREVIEW 61 PET planet insider Vol. 14 No. 10/13 www.petpla.net Air control Italian company Moretto SpA will be exhibiting a range of control, management and monitoring systems. Of par- ticular interest to the PET field will be a dedicated variant of its Eureka dehumidification system, which is designed to use and monitor only the precise amount of process air required and thus optimise energy use. In the PET variant, the Flowmatik integrated automatic process air distributor, OTX thermal exchanger and Xmax dryers are calibrated to reduce airflow by over one-third, compared with standard systems, with consequent savings in process and heating energy usage. www.moretto.com HSM Hall 11 Booth F07 Error correction HSM’s stand will feature its new PET FluidEx 600, which empties full PET bottles, cans and Tetra Paks which have been, for example, incorrectly filled or labelled or that have exceeded the expiry date. Details of the machine appeared in PETplanet Insider drinktec preview earlier this year. The stand will also feature the HSM V-Press 860 P vertical baling press, which is designed for compressing opened or perforated PET bottles. A four-fold wire strap- ping keeps the bales of up to 230kg in shape with maxi- mum bale sizes of 1,200 x 780 x max. 1,200mm. The PE 250 hydraulic label press, from HSM’s Pühler-HSM GmbH + Co. KG subsidiary, will also be on the stand. This press drains, compresses and conveys the medium through a press piston. www.hsm.eu Moretto Hall 11 Booth H57 ISBM and thin-wall cups Mould&Matic Solutions GmbH, Austria, will be found on two stands at the K Show. In Hall 12, Stand E49-5, the com- pany will present an overview of its products and competences. One of the company’s pick-up stackers will be demonstrated on Amut’s stand in Hall 16, Stand D43. Mould&Matic’s range extends from tooling for the thermoforming and injection moulding of thin-walled cups and buckets, through peripheral equipment for thermoforming machines for packaging pro- duction, to its new “Blowliner”, a machine for single-stage injec- tion stretch blow-moulding. The company says that Blowliner offers an economically attrac- tive alternative for production of 100-500ml bottles and con- tainers at annual quantities to around 50 million units. It can also be used for larger volume containers, of up to 10l, and is claimed to be customisable across a wide range. They can be operated as independent production cells or integrated directly into filling lines. www.mouldandmatic.com Mould & Matic Hall 12 Booth E49-5 Hall 16 Booth D43
