3 ABOUT MILK POWDER The task of packaging these products is a particularly challenging one and requires a good deal of on-the field-expertise in material handling. In various degrees, and according to the environmental conditions (e.g. temperature, humidity etc) these products can be: Fluidizing or building bridges Hygroscopic product, with a tendency to solidify. Aerated. Concetti have learned to overcome these issues through many years of experience.

These are completely automated machines that are able to process preformed open mouth bags.

4 CONCETTI EXPERIENCE Concetti produces automatic weighing and bagging machines for the milk powder, weighing from 5 to 50 kg. These are completely automated machines that are able to process preformed open mouth bags. Another packaging systems developed by Concetti, is the filling machine for big bags containing over 1500 kg of milk powder at production rate of 10 big bags an hour.

6 WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY. Mr. Brad Billmann, Operations Manager at Milk Products The project involved replacing 1940 s and 50 s vintage equipment with its state of the art Concetti counterparts. Large quantities of milk solids and other ingredients to form powdered milk requires a significant amount of time and energy, so efficiency and dependability of the overall process including the packaging systems are critical. Because a successful and timely installation was critical to Milk Products operation, Billmann and the Milk Products team looked to the Concetti Group for extensive project preplanning and design options. Before a single wrench touched the first bolt, we needed to be sure every aspect and contingency had been addressed.

7 WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY. Concetti worked with us closely before and during the project to ensure all phases of the project from design/build thru to installation/commissioning went smooth. Every detail had been thought through by the Concetti team. The experience that Concetti brings to the table with regards to planning and designing of packaging applications resulted in a packaging process that is faster, more efficient and less invasive on the product. Concetti worked closely with Milk Products for the integration of various equipment options to ensure that both product quality and operator safety expectations have been met.

8 EQUIPMENT RANGE Weighing systems Form-Fill-Seal system CONTINUA Open-Mouth bagging machines Big-bag (Jumbo bag) filling systems Palletizing systems Turn-key systems

9 IGF BAGGING MACHINE FOR PRE MADE BAGS Fully automatic bagging system. Suitable for handling paper bags with Pe-liner Generous empty bag magazine (three positions upwards) Up to 1200 bags/h.

10 NET-CC WEIGHER Net weigher with double screw feeding Two metering screws: one larger for main feed, one smaller for dribble feed. Range: 1 to 50 kg Capacity: Up to 800 weighments /hr.

11 NET-CC WEIGHER Easy cleaning featuring inspection doors. As an option, automatic cleaning system Weighing pan featuring quick release inspection doors

12 NET/G-CC WEIGHER - TECHNICAL DETAILS Construction in Stainless Steel All parts in contact with the product, are constructed in stainless steel.

13 These probes extract the air out of the product an reduce the volume. It is requested for very aerated products. The bag does not look like a balloon and it is easier to handle or to palletize. TECHNICAL DETAILS De-aeration Probes

14 TECHNICAL DETAILS: CONTROLLED ATMOSPERES Air contains oxygen at 21%, which causes the product oxidation, fermentation and eventual bacterial and aerobic organism growth. To reduce oxigen concentration in the bags you need to dilute residual oxygen blowing in inert gases, such as nitrogen, to preserve the product.

15 CONTROLLED ATMOSPHERES How the process works:

16 The hopper is loaded with the product CONTROLLED ATMOSPERES The gross or net weight system weighs the product The bag is held and filled

17 The vacuum probes are inserted in the product and the deaerating phase starts CONTROLLED ATMOSPERES

18 The inert gas blow-in phase starts CONTROLLED ATMOSPERES

19 The bag is transferred to the closing station and a Second deaerating probe is inserted to eliminate the residual air between the product and the bag mouth. SECOND DEAERATRING PROBE

20 The probe is removed and the PE-liner bag upper edge is heat sealed. This device blows air on the rim of the bag to remove milk powder sticking on the inner walls of the PE bag and ensures a tight sealing. SECOND DEAERATRING PROBE

21 BAG CLOSURES Multy layer paper bag with PE-liner. PE-liner heat sealed. Fold over and glue application or reactivation.

22 TECHNICAL STUDY Painting of Carbon Steel Parts Thanks to the internal sand blasting and painting shop, Concetti can carry out standard and customized painting cycles, such as Painting suitable for food application Anticorrosive treatment Customized painting thickness.

23 PUSH-TYPE PALLETISERS C.B.C. designs and produces high speed, push-type palletisers suitable for full and stable bags with a well-defined shape. Depending on the pattern, the pallet and the number of layers, it is possible to reach the following production capacities: 5 bags/layer: up to 2400 bags/h 7 bags/layer: up to 2550 bags/h 6 bags/layer: up to 2850 bags/h

24 ROBOT PALLETIZERS Single-column robot palletiser Anthropomorphic palletiser Two-column robot palletiser The robot palletizers feature a gripper that picks up one bag at a time from the service roller conveyor and places it at a point assigned by the program, on a layering platform or open pallet. Suitable for any kind of bag Four-column robot palletiser

TWO IN ONE ROBOT PALLETIZER - NEW Two in one robot palletizer features a gripper that picks bags from a single roller conveyor and deposits them onto two platforms with motorized side and top layer

25 TWO IN ONE ROBOT PALLETIZER - NEW Two in one robot palletizer features a gripper that picks bags from a single roller conveyor and deposits them onto two platforms with motorized side and top layer compaction. It can palletize two different products lines simultaneously according to given parameters and a bag detection system. Suitable for any kind of bag. It reaches a top speed of 1000 bags/hr, according to the bag size and the layer pattern.

The most common techniques to protect the full pallet are: END-OF-LINE PALLET PACKAGING STRETCH HOOD MACHINE This machine applies

The film hood is stretched to a dimension matching the exact outer circumference of the full pallet and is applied over the load

This ensures a reliable hold between the pallet and the load, and secures the pallet for storage and transport.

27 The most common techniques to protect the full pallet are: END-OF-LINE PALLET PACKAGING STRETCH HOOD MACHINE This machine applies a flexible film hood onto the full pallet. The film hood is stretched to a dimension matching the exact outer circumference of the full pallet and is applied over the load and released underneath the pallet. This ensures a reliable hold between the pallet and the load, and secures the pallet for storage and transport. WRAPPING MACHINE The stretch wrapping machine will wrap the full pallets with stretch film in order to secure the load to the pallet to facilitate their transport. The new generation of wrapping machines can effect a wrapping system using film pre-stretch system controlled by a tacho generator, guaranteeing prestretching to 400%.

28 GROSS/C TYPE BIG BAG FILLING MACHINES All parts in contact with the product, are constructed in stainless steel. Up to 10 big-bag/hour (1500 kg).

29 TURN-KEY BAGGING LINES One supplier for the whole packaging process. On all machines, the changeover from one bag programme to another is made through the PLC and operator panel in just 90 seconds without the use of any tools. This rapid switchover results in higher average outputs when compared to machines that have higher outright speed but require extended downtime between products, sometimes involving several change parts and lengthy setups.
