High performance packaging components

A company specializing in the design and manufacture of components for industrial machines and equipment for many industrial sectors, Elesa presented at interpack a wide range of packaging solutions specific to the packaging sector, which, in terms of turnover and volumes, is one of its main markets.

 
A prime placing that is reflected in the attention with which the company has always studied needs and demands, offering high quality, high performance equipment featuring accurate and ergonomic design.
• Among the numerous proposals on display, we cite the position indicators, in great demand in the packaging sector, where they are used to set and adjust numerous machine functions. The Elesa indicators provide maximum reliability and precision of reading, with extreme care for detail in the production and assembly phase. The company offers an articulated range, based on the type of reading (analog, analog-digital, digital or digital LCD), and the type of operation (gravitational motion, fixed or direct response).
Recently devised, thanks to the various functions available and programmable parameters, the DD52R-E and DD51-E electronic indicators can be suited to a variety of applications: with different control shaft pitches, rotation directions, units of measurement...

• Also previewed at interpack, a wireless system for positioning the control shafts, designed to facilitate one of the most frequent and costly operations on packaging machines.
Indeed, normally the operator adjusts the position of all control shafts according to specific coordinates, using appropriate control systems (mechanical position indicators mounted on knobs, handwheels or cranks capable of translating the position reached into numerical measurements...). Since the control shafts to be positioned are often numerous, and with different profiles, the machine setting not only takes time but is also subject to possible errors.
To simplify and speed up operations, minimizing risk factors, Elesa proposes a new wireless system, consisting of 36 radio frequency RFUs with 36 patented electronic position indicators (DD52R-E-RF), the installation of which does not require connection cables. The data of the position reached and that of the “target” are transmitted by radio frequency from the control unit to the position indicator and vice versa.
Furthermore, the system prevents the machine from starting until all set-up procedures are completed, preventing non-compliant production.

A worldwide standard
Founded in 1941 with its headquarters in Monza and 11 branch offices abroad, Elesa exports its products to more than 60 countries around the world.
The company designs and manufactures the widest range of components for industrial machinery and equipment: handwheels, clamping elements, knobs, locking handles and levers, handles and grips, position indicators, piston rods and spring presses, screws, washers, leveling feet, hinges, connectors and clamps, closures, accessories for oleodynamic systems, rollers, wheels, magnets and anti-vibration elements.
Manufactured with state-of-the-art technology and metals, highly performant and reliable, ergonomic and with a modern, functional design, Elesa brand products are used in the most diverse areas of industrial mechanics. Their constant commitment to R&D is combined with a highly customer-oriented service.
