Handtmann will be showing cross-process solutions for food processing at interpack in Hall 5, Stand C38: from product preparation to processing and packaging solutions. All process solutions are modular and flexibly configurable. Fully automatic solutions for formed products and sausages as well as dosed products will be demonstrated live.
These modern handling processes are flanked by a variety of smart digital solutions (HDS) that were specifically adapted to these processes and developed in-house by Handtmann. The monitor control in Handtmann vacuum filling machines reliably synchronises several cross-process processing steps. It controls, monitors and networks complex systems. This enables cross-process automation from product preparation with mixing and fine crushing to processing with portioning, dosing, forming or co-extrusion to a wide range of product handling options such as grouping, gripping, feeding and inserting the products into the respective packaging solution. Handtmann solutions thus stand for absolute process reliability in conjunction with packaging machines such as thermoformers or tray sealers from Multivac. The integration of the new WS 910 weighing system in the advanced edition provides additional process monitoring and control of complex lines. It takes over the control, monitoring and weight regulation of production as well as the ejection of underweight and overweight portions after processing. It significantly reduces give-away and re-work, which leads to savings in packaging, resources and handling.
Fully automatic sausage production from the filling process to grouping and placing the sausages in trays including a weighing system and the digital Handtmann Line Control HLC will be shown on the stand. A fully automated, gram-precise dosing process including a packaging solution will be demonstrated based on the DS 552 dosing system with up to 24 lanes. On a line solution with FS 525 forming system, trade fair visitors will experience the production of formed products, such as burgers, from the portioning and forming process to transfer with insertion into trays. All production solutions on the trade fair stand are networked via the Handtmann 4.0. solution HCU and interested parties can experience smart food production live and obtain detailed information at the Handtmann Digital Solutions Infopoint. A fully automated dosing system with Multivac thermoforming packaging machine and minced meat production in Flowpack can be found at Multivac, Handtmann's strategic partner, on the exhibition stand and in the outdoor area near Hall 4.
