The best gluing for food and fresh produce trays

The market of trays for food products and fresh produce has strict requirements: the systems that produce trays for transporting fresh produce have to guarantee max productivity and reliability.

And… it’s no coincidence that, for more than 20 years, Robatech has been the go-to brand for gluing systems employed in this industry.
In fact, the Swiss multinational Robatech produces hotmelt adhesive dispensing systems used for gluing trays, both in cardboard and in plastic materials.
We all know that the highly seasonal nature of this sector does not allow for machine stops. Robatech installations are known in the sector for their high reliability, and it is for this very reason that major packaging manufacturers have long chosen Robatech solutions as a standard for their production and that of their customers.
Furthermore, the main Italian builders of automatic machinery for producing trays also choose Robatech for its efficient global assistance service, which the company is able to guarantee thanks to more than 60 contact points spread over more than 50 countries.

There are now thousands of Robatech installations operating for hundreds of customers throughout the world. It is important to point out that each new system supplied in this field maintains a high level of compatibility with the models of earlier series in terms of spare parts, and that the graphic interface with which the operator manages the system maintains the same commands as the earlier versions, in such a way greatly facilitating the job of machine operators and maintenance personnel (in addition to considerably reducing the cost of parts changes).
Most of these systems function under difficult conditions under which looking after machinery at times takes second place. In this context, the machines have to be sturdy in conception and simple to use. Robatech offers this market the Concept series of applicators (which for years has been a point of reference) and the AX series dispensing guns, which are multi module and also double effect, extremely robust and tested by the most demanding customers.
Given that often the critical point lies in the carbonization of the gluestuff, an ever greater amount of users are requesting that the systems are equipped with automatic glue charging systems. On this count Robatech recently launched the new automatic glue charging system Robafeed, that keeps the melted glue in the tanks at optimum levels, hence guaranteeing machines that are ever production ready and at the same time avoiding the overfilling that deteriorates the gluestuff and damages the selfsame systems.
Robatech represents the most technologically advanced solution for the market of trays for food products and fresh produce.

Broadband metal detector The model THS metal detector by Ceia SpA (Viciomaggio, AR) detects any metal contaminants present in industrial products, with levels of sensitivity, immunity to interference and response speed above the standards set out by the most stringent quality control regulations. In particular the wide bandwidth of the detector ensures maximum effectiveness both at low as well as at high speed transit.
THS is able to intercept magnetic and non-magnetic metals as well as highly resistive stainless steels; it also has an automatic compensation function that cancels the interference caused by the material inspected.
Ceia metal detectors are used in the food, chemical, textile and pharmaceutical industries.
