For over 25 years, SAC- MI has been providing a broad range of solutions for every possible application, solutions widely appreciated by the bottling industry. DIGITAL DECORATION Leading beverage brands have leveraged digital printing to create successful personalized packaging campaigns. SACMI has developed innovative and easy-to-use technologies for labels and caps digital decoration to make the most of their communication potential. No limits to imagination! INSPECTION SYSTEMS The cap, preform, bottle and label are inspected using the most advanced Vision Technologies. Developed by SACMI Automation & Inspection System Division, our Vision Systems work directly with the production machine and guarantee 100% output quality. BUFFERING With the CPB Link dynamic buffer, Sacmi lays the foundations for real integration between the preform and cap production processes and the blowing-bottling line. 5

Ips Pet Preform Injection System Making preforms has never been easier New high performance injection systems for PET preforms. The new IPS combines userfriendliness and fast size changeovers with unique versatility thanks to compatibility with existing moulds New high performance injection systems ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY The IPS preform production platform with injection technology is Sacmi s finely-targeted response to the vast range of investment and technological upgrade needs within the converter world. USER-FRIENDLINESS AND QUICK CHANGEOVERS One of just a handful of providers on the planet capable of leading the way across a range of industries and technologies, Sacmi initially developed the IPS 220; this machine won immediate market acclaim for its user-friendliness, fast size changeovers and high-tech content such as the linear motor on the pick-up unit which features the energy recovery system (K.E.R.S.) AUTOMATION The new Sacmi IPS 400 combines all the winning features of the previous version with innovations such as automated preform unloading in the post-cooling area, thus eliminating conveyors and reducing handling tasks and plant length considerably. Versatility Unique versatility, as the IPS 400 is compatible with most moulds on the market. HIGH PRODUCTIVITY AND IMPROVED QUALITY The IPS 400 combines lock-to-lock times of just 2.1 seconds with specifications that guarantee higher output quality; this is achieved thanks also to an innovative transfer solution between extruder and injector (FIFO circuit in the plasticizing unit). ZERO CONTAMINATION RISKS Positioning the containers in the post-cooling area allows preform unloading to be performed in a controlled environment, thus eliminating any risk of contamination. Zero Defects All the produced preforms are controlled in line using a PVS inspection machine. PVS allows an immediate feedback to the production process, eliminating the risk to produce defective parts. 6

CCM Continuous Compression Molding Making caps has never been faster Compression moulding is a cutting-edge technology that is renowned worldwide. More than half of all plastic flat top beverage caps are produced using this technology, making SACMI the world s leading compression moulding machine producer Performances shorter cycle time and therefore higher productivity. The lower extrusion temperature allows for fast cap cooling. LESS ENERGY CONSUMPTION. Lower extrusion temperatures mean less energy is needed to bring the plastic up to temperature and less energy to cool it. HIGHER CONSISTENCY (very important on bottling lines) due to equal moulding pressure, lower temperature and absence of injection gate. EASY AND FLEXIBLE MAINTENANCE due to independent moulds, as long as it is performed on spare stacks offline, thus avoiding machine downtime. Zero Defects All the produced caps are controlled in line using a CVS inspection system. CVS allows an immediate feedback to the production process, eliminating the risk to produce defective parts. 7

CPB LINK The missing link has been found SACMI s Cap and Preform Buffer is an automatic storage system for caps and preforms that provides the final link between cap/preform production and blowing/filling cpb advantages The different nature and average efficiencies of, on one hand, the cap and preform production processes and, on the other, blowing-bottling, have always prevented true integration of these stages. But not any longer. The CPB Link dynamic cap and preform buffer is the heart of the new Sacmi HEROLINE: it offers a high level response to an evolving business model, opening up new opportunities for both bottlers looking to internalise some of the production and converters interested in wallto-wall production. With SACMI CPB LINK, contamination of the caps and preforms arriving at the bottling line is kept under careful control, ensuring chemical savings on all sensitive product bottling lines. PREFORM CONTAMINATION LEVEL 10.000.000 Contamination CFU/gr up to melt CFU/preform after melt 1.000.000 100.000 10.000 1.000 100 10 ACCIDENTAL CONTAMINATIONS STANDARD STORAGE SYSTEM STANDARD INJECTION NOT CONTROLLED CONTAMINATION NCC CONTROLLED CONTAMINATION CC NO CHEMICALS 1 Pellet Dry Pellet Melt Hot Preform Cold Preform Preform in octabin Converter Storage Preform at Plant Preform at Blower ASEPTIC ULTRACLEAN ULTRACLEAN INJECTION CPB LINK LESS CHEMICALS NO CHEMICALS 8
