ppma matters
A very Prosperous New Year to our
readers and welcome to this, the first
2011 edition of Machinery Update.
We ended 2010 on a strong note
of optimism and having spoken with
a number of UK manufacturers over
the past week or two, the excesses
of the Christmas break have done
nothing to mute this, even though
there will no doubt be a slowing of
consumer spending even amongst
non-public sector employees. As we
all know, such reduced spending
soon finds its way back up the supply
chain and cannot be considered to be
anything other than bad for UK manufacturing and suppliers.
However, my sympathies for the public sector were sorely tested
when I read of the recent fiasco surrounding the apparent under-
spend at UK Trade and Investment (UKTI), the government body
responsible for promoting British businesses abroad. It was a familiar
scenario. The department, having found that it had not spent its entire
budget for the financial year, risked losing the said funds when the
budgets were reallocated for the coming financial year post April
2011. So why am I so upset? Because far from suggesting that the
money should be spent doing what UKTI was established to deliver,
that is; support to UK businesses wanting to trade overseas, the only
options considered were purely internal and self-interested. A UKTI
leadership conference; funds for all UKTI staff to go out and visit
companies and organise promotional events in the week leading up
to the conference; a possible £50K to be given to overseas UKTI staff
to use for their own local promotional purposes and no doubt other
un-publicised jollies for the staff! Not once did anyone suggest that
the money could be allocated to the UK Trade Access Programme
designed to provide financial help to UK SME’s trying to undertake
business abroad. On the contrary, this year we were all told that
there would be minimal funding for such activities and many UK
companies have since declined to take advantage of trade
opportunities because the funding was either too small or withdrawn
completely. Would £1 million have been enough? Absolutely it would
as a few thousand pounds can determine the success or failure of
many overseas initiatives involving SME’s. Trade Associations
hosting and managing these activities count the tens and hundreds of
pounds let alone the thousands or, ‘glory-be’, the millions.
I wonder if the day will ever come when the civil service recognises
the function implied in their name? They are paid for by the public
and are there to deliver a service to the public and the industries in
which they work.

The first study of automation
within UK SME manufacturers
has gained funding from the
Government to help prepare
companies wanting to introduce
automation into their
businesses. The study identified
the main barriers to take-up by
SMEs as their lack of
knowledge and skills as well as
their attitude to risk.
This four-country
benchmarking study was
commissioned by members of
the Engineering and Machinery
Alliance (EAMA), with support
from the Department for
Business, Innovation and Skills
(BIS) and British Automation
and Robot Association (BARA)
members. It shows that UK
manufacturers have invested
significantly less in modern
manufacturing technologies
than their counterparts in
mainland Europe.
As a result, many UK
manufacturers aren’t as
competitive as they could be.
According to the report
(Application of Automation in
UK Manufacturing 27th
September 2010), UK
manufacturing has fallen a long
way behind our European
competitors. Taking robot use
as an example, Germany has
an installed base of 144,800
industrial robots and Spain
28,600, whereas the UK
records just 15,100.
“By comparing UK companies
with similar businesses in
Germany, Spain and Sweden
this study highlights our
weakness in automation,” says
chairman of EAMA Martin
Walder. “If UK manufacturing is
to remain competitive we have
to act now.”
And this study has prompted
the Coalition Government to
stump up some cash to help
address the barriers that UK
manufacturers face. In
December, Business Minister
Mark Prisk said: “I am delighted
to announce today that we will
be contributing £600,000 for a
two year automation and
robotics programme to be
developed and run by EAMA
and BARA.
“This programme will better
BARA welcomes more supportMike Wilson, president of British
Automation and Robot
Association (BARA) welcomes
the Government’s commitment
to increasing automation.
“Although the UK is a long
way behind in the use of
automation when compared to
some other countries,
manufacturing in the UK has
many strengths including
reasonable productivity levels
achieved by the widespread
assimilation of lean concepts,”
says Wilson. “If the use of
automation can be increased,
UK manufacturing has the
potential to be a significant
force in global markets –
however, there is a definite
need for an overall strategy to
be co-ordinated and driven at a
national level, and BARA
intends to take the lead on such
an initiative,” he says.
In addition to supporting the
BIS programme, BARA will
organise a series of regional
events in early 2011 which will
help SMEs understand the
benefits of automation and
provide advice on how to take
the first steps in their adoption
of automation.
“The regional events will
provide manufacturers with an
excellent source of information
and know-how so that they can
overcome the obstacles
suppressing their uptake of
automation and consequently
increase their competitive
edge,” he says.
Wilson believes that in a
relatively high cost economy
such as the UK, the
application of automation
is an essential ingredient
in the sustainability of
manufacturing businesses,
enabling them to compete more
successfully in the global
market. “Automation not only
drives costs down, it improves
quality, reduces waste and also
optimises energy use,” he says.

prepare companies to introduce
new automated/robotic systems
and help them increase
productivity, reduce waste and
increase precision in their
manufacturing process.”
In addition to supporting the
automation and robotics
programme, BARA with
assistance of members
including ABB Robotics and
Kuka Automation + Robotics,
and other trade bodies such as
the Processing and Packaging
Machinery Association, the Food
and Drink Federation and other
EAMA members, is implementing
a regional events programme to
help SMEs understand the
benefits of automation.

UK manufacturers have invested significantly less in modern
manufacturing technologies than their European neighbours
Automation benchmarkingsecures Government cash
The Food and Drink Federation
(FDF) is supporting the launch of
this two-year programme to
encourage more UK
manufacturers to invest in new
automation and robotics
technologies to help drive down
costs, improve quality, reduce
waste and optimise energy used.
FDF director of
communications Julian Hunt
said: “We applaud the fact that
the Government is funding this
programme in collaboration
with industry as part of its
strategy to encourage growth in
UK manufacturing.
“UK food and drink
manufacturers are already
major users of robot
applications – and the uptake of
such technologies has been
growing rapidly since 2006. But,
like other sectors, we still need
to close the gap with our rivals
in the rest of Europe,” he said.

Food and drink manufacturers
remain confident that they will
maintain their investment in new
plant and machinery, despite the
economic uncertainties,
according to a new survey
carried out by the Food and
Drink Federation (FDF).
Very few companies quizzed
by FDF were optimistic about
the general business
environment, but the survey
found that most respondents are
either maintaining or increasing
their investment in equipment
and research. In fact, a sizeable
minority – 38% – said they were
actually planning to increase
their capital expenditure.
And almost half of the FDF
members who responded to the
survey said they were also
planning to launch new products.
The survey results – which
will be good news for machinery
suppliers to the sector – confirms
Government data showing that
business investment by food
and drink manufacturers grew
by 10% at the end of 2010
compared with 2009. Such
confidence comes on the back
of a strong performance by the
UK’s biggest manufacturing
sector, with 60% of respondents
reporting increased sales in the
third quarter of 2010 and more
than half predicting that sales
would keep growing into 2011.
“Continued uncertainty over
the performance of the UK
economy means that members
remain cautious, but they have
not cut their investment in
physical and human resources
or delayed taking products to
market,” says FDF director of
competitiveness Angela
Coleshill. “Overall, it’s an
encouraging outlook for the UK’s
largest manufacturing sector.”

Shrink film offers economiesSealed Air has unveiled a new
range of shrink films including the
CT-301 film claimed to be the only
seven micron film on the market
and, despite it being half the
thickness of other films, is said to
retain the strength, tear and burn
resistance of heavier gauge films
as well as offering enhanced seal
strength and durability.
“We anticipated competing
effectively against 11 and 13
micron films but CT-301
exceeded our expectations as we
began to take it to market,” says
Hélios Ruiz, marketing director
for Shrink Packaging Europe.
“We were able to drop in 7 micron
film behind competitive 15 micron
films running at high speeds and
not even miss a beat.”

SHOW BRIEFSWith over 70 companies from
the bioplastics sector
showcasing their latest
products at the K-2010 in
Germany last November, the
show proved to be “the ideal
platform for this industry to
feature its tangible benefits of
innovation and sustainability in
this rapidly emerging branch of
the plastics industry,” says
Hasso von Pogrell, managing
director of trade association
European Bioplastics.
Sustainability was one of the
key topics discussed at the
show and the decades of
research into finding
alternatives to petrochemical-
based plastics seems to be
paying off. “One sees this with
machine builders, converters,
brand owners, retailers and
converters,” says Pogrell.
According to Pogrell,
European Bioplastics is
actively working with
stakeholders at EU level to
jointly develop appropriate
criteria and standards for
measuring sustainability
regarding bioplastics. “As
knowledge partner throughout
the whole value chain, we seek
to provide fact based and
reliable information about the
bioplastics industry to all
interested parties,” he says.

With 1,295 exhibitors and an
attendance of over 85,000
visitors over the four days, the
international packaging
exhibition Emballage held in
Paris last November was said
to “reflect the restored
dynamism for the packaging-
related industries”.
Show organisers say that the
predicted growth and business
confidence were back at the
show and that 70% of visitors
were decision makers who
were often already involved in
concrete investment projects.

UK mechanical engineering
companies continue to
consolidate their position on UK
and export business according
to the Engineering and
Machinery Alliance (EAMA)
Business Monitor.
The more robust numbers
witnessed since the summer
increased again in November with
positive balances of over a third on
inquiries for UK and export
business. Overall, order levels
were also up with healthy
balances of plus 17% on UK and
plus 14% on export activity.
The view on employment is also
fairly bullish with a balance of plus
11% saying job numbers were up.
Although there is no clear-cut
gain in investment activity, the
stand out number this month is the
increase in the number of firms
reporting investment in all areas of
the business.
“Although the basic 50:50 split
between firms investing in some
form of activity and those thinking
about it but currently holding back
is still a worry, we now have a
third of firms reporting investment
in all areas,” explains EAMA
chairman Martin Walder. “Over
the last four or five months,
investment activity has been
more consistent reflecting some
confidence in the future.
“And although just over a fifth
of firms say that month on month
orders have declined,
companies remain cautiously
optimistic,” he concludes.

10 MACHINERY UPDATE : JANUARY/FEBRUARY 2011
With just under a year to go
until EN 954-1 is completely
replaced by EN 13849-1 Paul
Laidler of machinery safety and
compliant consultants Laidler
Associates believes there is
much more work to be done
before machinery builders and
users understand the
differences, and also the
implications of the changes.
Speaking in London in
January, Laidler said that an
awful lot of work will have to
happen before the grace period
runs out in December 2011, as
confusion reigns at the
moment. And this confusion is
at both machinery companies
and at their customers. One
thing that he does believe,
however, is that end users will
drive this forward as they –
under the PUWER regulations
– are ultimately responsible for
anything that’s non-compliant,
rather than the machine
builder. But, machine builders
who do not bother to check out
the differences, and in
particular the whole life cycle
emphasis of the regulations,
may find themselves unable to
sell their kit legally come the
new year.
“Validation is the completely
new element with every safety
component having to have a
mean time to (dangerous)
failure (MTTFd) provided by the
manufacturer,” says Laidler. In
practice, this MTTFd is the
complicated bit to ascertain.
Laidler talked of an end user
that had called the consultancy
in to carry out a validation
project for a recently installed
machine that had not previously
been validated, even though a
13849-1 assessment had been
completed. Laidler found that
Awareness runs for one-day
and delegates will be given an
awareness of the relevant
regulations and how
standards can be used for
compliance. Delegates will
gain an understanding of
electrical safety legislation,
regulations, standards and
terminology.
The second course runs for
two days, is called Practical
Electrical Machinery Safety and
incorporates the first course as
the content of day one and then
delegates increase their
knowledge base and apply this
through practical assessment.
The final course, called
Electrical Machinery Safety,
runs for five days and
introduces attendees to the
whole concept of safety related
control circuits.
This course will cover the
functional safety standards EN
13849-1 and EN 62061 and
demonstrate practical real-life
examples of how these
standards are used and
validated.
Further information on
regulations and how to avoid
banana skins is on page 30.

Global product identification
and traceability company
Domino UK has launched new
products in several of its
ranges which represents “the
most significant reworking of
its product portfolio in over a
decade”.
Incorporating several smart,
new features, the new
A-Series continuous ink jet
machine showcases the new
intelligent technology concept
that encompasses an array of
technologies to make
production lines lower
maintenance, lower cost and
more efficient (see page 7,
Machinery Update
November/December issue).
This new intelligent
technology concept extends to
other new products launched,
for instance, the digital thermal
transfer overprinter (V120i)
and the D-Series range of
industrial scribing lasers
(D120i and D320i).
New coders are smart
The V120i is an entry level
solution designed for
manufacturers seeking an
affordable upgrade path to
the benefits of digital thermal
transfer overprinting
technology. Said to offer the
lowest running costs in its
class, this is achieved largely
via the i-Tech ribbon drive
which uses up to 60% less
ribbon compared to other
coders without sacrificing
print quality. It doesn’t use
compressed air, offers long
times between ribbon
changeovers and “virtually
eliminates downtime
associated with ribbon break”.
It features a 300 dpi
resolution print head capable
of printing logos and
barcodes as well as text over
a wide print area.
Two models currently make
up the new D-Series range of
scribing lasers, both of which
feature a new scan head with
a significantly smaller
footprint that saves space and
makes it simple to integrate
the lasers in the production
line. “The D-Series is already
recognised as a high quality
solution for applying variable
alphanumeric text, graphics
and 2D Data matrix codes
onto glass, plastic, paper and
cartons,” explains Ingo
Waldeck, Domino laser
product manager.
Domino UK will launch its
new range of coding and
marking technology that
“breaks the service routine” at
a series of Open Days being
held at its sites across the UK
in March. Domino sites at Bar
Hill, Cambridge (March 22-23);
Liverpool (March 29) and
Stirling (March 31) will
demonstrate the A320i and the
D-Series and V-Series in
action. Contact Chris Thorpe

The Loma IQ3 metal detector has
been upgraded with the addition
of a global dual line display panel
to further enhance the flexibility
and functionality of the controls
while ensuring the machine is
easier to use and set up.
The control panel is multi-
lingual and is universal across all
countries. The panel supports a
wide range of languages and so
is ideal for any food processor
with a multi-cultural workforce.
The dual line panel has been
designed to ensure that the
operator can easily and quickly
identify that the machine is
inspecting the correct product.
This eliminates the wrong
product being inspected. Other
key functions are always visible,
such as threshold and product
signal which can be viewed

Pallet base sheets are loaded in lineA new version of the PAL-Cut
sheet dispenser that provides
automated loading of base
sheets directly onto pallets is
now available.
“Many of our customers have
experienced bottlenecks during
the palletising process and have
asked for a simple, automatic
machine to place base sheets
directly onto pallets,” explains
Preben Thomsen, sales
manager of PAL-Cut which is
why the company has
developed this solution.
The dispenser automatically
loads base sheets onto the
pallets as they move past the unit
on their way to the palletiser. The
system increases palletising
capacity because the base sheet
is already on the pallet when the
products are ready to be stacked.
Up to eight sheets a minute
can be handled.

Increased efficiencyfor famous teacakesIncreased efficiency is one of the
main benefits of a new Schubert
automated packaging line chosen
by Scottish firm Tunnocks.
The high performance line has
been installed at the Uddingston
site to pack the famous
Tunnocks teacakes, and is
designed to pack either 6 or 10
teacakes to a box or 12 to a tray.
The high speed machine packs
up to 67 cartons a minute for the
6 count carton and 40 cartons a
minute for the 10 count version.
The line can pack up to 400
products a minute and has a
Schubert vision system
incorporated for quality control
purposes. Any mis-shapen or
broken products are
automatically rejected before the
final packaging process.
The system features a TLM-
F44 picker station which is used
to pick up the teacakes and place
them on to the grouping belt
conveyor before being
transported to the central loading

Liquorice ismultiweighedA 24 head Ishida multihead
weigher is reducing product
giveaway by as much as 10%
to maximise throughput of the
Ga-Jol brand of liquorice
pastilles at the Toms Gruppen
factory in Denmark.
Ga-Jols are packed into
small 23g handy-sized
cartons. Originally, the pastilles
were packed using volumetric
fillers but to ensure the correct
weight in each pack, it was
necessary to overfill by as
much as two to three grams
each time.
“This amount of giveaway
can be very expensive over
the course of a production
run,” explains Kaja Thomsen,
production manager at Toms
Gruppen who co-ordinated the
project. “By installing the
Ishida, we are effectively
packing an extra carton for
every ten packs produced.”
While the removal of product
giveaway was vital, it was
equally important that
production line speeds were
maintained. The Ishida is
currently operating at 280
packs a minute, well within its
speed potential and limited
only by other parts of the
packing line, something which
Toms intends to tackle in the
coming months.

cardboard carton is erected from
a flat carton blank and glued by
hotmelt using a carton closing
machine. A Schubert TLM-F2
loading system then picks up the
collated teacakes and loads them
into the cartons.
System flexibility means that
products can also be packed into
an acetate tray. Simply by
changing the format parts, the
machine can denest the tray,
load the new format with
complete inspection and
discharge from the system.
Tunnocks is so pleased with
the installation that it has just
invested in a second Schubert

Ketchup coder is lovin’ itAfter ten years of using Allen
Coding’s Compact 80/45 hot foil
coder, ketchup and dressings
producer Procordia Food has
upgraded to an Allen 53Lti
thermal transfer unit.
As the largest manufacturer of
ketchup in Northern Europe,
much of which ends up in
McDonald’s restaurants
throughout the Nordic countries,
Swedish company Procordia
has very specific labelling
requirements and high demands
regarding adhesion.
Following the incorporation of
a new production line to provide
increased capacity, Procordia
felt that the time was right to
replace the old Allen hot foil
machine with a new thermal
transfer coder which was
installed directly onto existing
mounting frames within the
production line.
“The new Allen coder has
offered us greater flexibility and
reduced downtime on the
production line as it runs five
times longer than the previous
machine before requiring a foil
change,” says Göran Svensson,
technical manager at Procordia.
“It is also extremely easy to use
via the handheld operator
keypad and we are delighted
with its performance, the
labelling results and the ink
adhesion.”
The 53Lti is being used at
Procordia to apply details such
as best before date, batch

speeds of about 30-60 bags a

Gordian Strapping has supplied
a pallet shrink wrapping,
shrouding and strapping
machine to glass container
manufacturer Beatson Clark.
The unit has been installed on
its packaging line at the
Rotherham plant as part of an
ongoing maintenance and
investment programme to make
the packaging process faster as
well as more energy efficient.
“One or our primary
considerations when sourcing
the new machine was the
environmental, health and safety
credentials,” explains Tim
Swetnam, production manager
at Beatson Clark. “This system
was especially attractive due to
the reductions in time and costs
it provides us with and the safety
features to protect our
employees.”
On entering the machine, each
pallet is automatically scanned
and the type of wrapping it
requires is identified. This can be
tailored to individual customer
requirements as appropriate,
while options include strapping,
fusion shrouding for standard
bulk palletised products or non-
fusion shrouding for polythene
brick packed products.
The end result is a better
quality of shrink wrapping and a
more stable pallet for onward
product transit.
“Our machine has been well
received by our employees and
is performing very well,” says
Swetnam.
Gordian Strapping’s sales and
engineering team can provide a
full line survey and planning to
offer solutions that are designed
to optimise efficiency and output.

Based largely around the
higher capacity NV2 system
platform, the S100 “offers quality

Thermal printermakes UK debutOpen Date Equipment’s
Thermocode iQ thermal transfer
printer will make its full UK debut
(stand A32). Designed to
operate with all intermittent
labelling and packaging
machines it is particularly suited
for food products.
“By using three stepper
motors, rather than compressed
air as used on conventional
machines, the iQ has extremely
fine pressure adjustments which
means the life of the print head
can be doubled in many
applications,” explains Open
Date’s ceo Gary Cowlard. “In
addition, this control leads to
greater print accuracy without
loss of speed.” Currently the
printer can achieve 800 cycles
per minute.
Often printers need to be sited
at various points along a line,
particularly when the product and
pack have a number of
components such as ready meals.
The iQ is easy to install and a
number of units can be networked
and controlled from the 7” touch
screen, which has been specially
designed for the new printer.
Visitors to the stand will be
able to see first hand the
versatility and user friendliness
of this latest addition to the

Promotional prices in the
dairy sector hit all time lows
throughout 2010 leaving
many producers counting the
costs. The percentage of
dairy products sold on
promotion jumped to almost
30% over the past 12 months
as suppliers and retailers
fought for shoppers’
diminishing budgets. And this
pressure on margins has
impacted suppliers of
machinery to the sector.
Liquid milk has seen some
of the most aggressive
activity but so have yoghurts,
cheese, ice creams, butters and spreads. And
although the cheese sector saw extraordinary
promotional activity – especially on cheddar –
the £2.4bn cheese market is growing at 2.8%
and performing better than total dairy, which is
growing at 0.8%.
But is this promotional free-for-all
sustainable? The general consensus across the
dairy sector is that it is not, but it remains to be
seen if the suppliers and retailers can get
themselves out of the fix they have promoted
themselves into.
In the next few pages, Machinery Update
reports on just some of the latest equipment
supplied to the dairy sector which, despite the
recession, has continued to invest in NPD.
An SS120 heavy duty stainless steel side feed
shrink wrapper was delivered to Clifton Dairies
and in full production within 48 hours by Yorkshire
Packaging Systems (YPS).
Clifton Dairies is expanding and director
Richard Leeming felt YPS equipment was the
logical choice “because they were the most
attentive to detail, the easiest to deal with and
crucially for me, manufactured the equipment in
the UK, with the back up and support this
implies”. The machine features improvements in
change parts for different pack sizes and
collations and has reduced changeover times.
The SS120 handles a variety of pack sizes and
collations but the 2 litre in a 3 x 2 collation at 14 a
minute is the most popular. At this rate, a single
lane infeed is all that is required and so the
pack is collated by utilising two pushes to every
jaw cycle.
At faster speeds achieved on the SS200, for
example, each pack is wrapped using only one
push per jaw cycle. To achieve this, a specially
designed diverter system installed on the
machine infeed is used to keep two lanes
continually filled.

A Kuka robot has turned the tricky, cumbersome task of palletising
large 30kg boxes of cheese into a quick, agile operation at one of
Britain’s oldest cheesemakers.
The high payload KR 100-2 PA model is being used at Barber’s
Maryland Farm in Somerset as part of an automated packing line,
designed by integrated specialist Güdel to handle 250 cheese blocks
an hour. The lightweight robot supplied by Kuka Automation +
Robotics is equipped with a bespoke finger gripper tool to pick up the
hefty, wooden containers from a heavy duty roller conveyor system.
As a box reaches the palletising station, it is flipped on its side
ready to be lifted by the gripper, which also features a pair of
plungers to keep the load in place.
The robot is programmed to stack 60 boxes on to a two-way
pallet which is then transported by forklift truck to a storage facility
where the cheese is matured. The system is also used to palletise
25kg boxes of butter.
Barber’s was not only keen to develop an automated solution to
replace the arduous manual packing and stacking process, but
also improve the reliability of its box strapping operation. The new
system means packing staff are now only required to put the
cheese blocks into boxes and apply lids before placing them on to
the roller conveyor belt unit where they are passed to the
automated strapping and palletising stations.
Head of engineering at Barber’s Julian Ing is delighted with the
way the system is running. “We spent a lot of time developing the
right solution especially as the location for the cell offered a very
small footprint and the challenges of a low, sloping roof and busy
forklift truck access area,” he explains.
“As well as helping to address health and safety concerns by
reducing the amount of manual handling, the switch has also
achieved a more efficient strapping process, an important part of
the operation that had previously been problematic,” he says.

Arla Foods has installed a Robot-In-A-Box from
Soco Systems at its dairy in Gjesing, Denmark
to cope with the limited space available while
providing fast payback on investment.
Packaging manager at Arla Benny Henriksen
was so impressed when he saw a
demonstration of the system that “we just went
for it”. The robot was ordered at the beginning of
March last year, it was delivered at the end of
June and the entire system was operating
successfully two days later.
“It was more or less just unpack, connect and
operate,” explains Henriksen. “The installation
work was limited to four bolts to the floor and
connection to the Soco System flexi conveyer to
our packaging machine for our Castello
cheeses.”
The company made a few minor adjustments
after commissioning however, the cheeses are
now placed with such precision by the
multifunctional gripper, this would have been
difficult with manual palletising. “In this way, we
have an even bigger guarantee of precise
cooling,” says Henriksen.
Arla had previously shelved all ideas of
bringing robots into its dairy because of the
limited space available. In contrast to traditional
free arm robots, the gantry robot used here has
a much smaller working area without
compromising on speed. At Arla Foods, up to 20
cartons a minute are handled.
In peak season, Castello cheeses are handled
in a 24 hour operation, seven days a week in
three shifts. “We have had very few stops on this
system as Robot-In-A-Box is so simple we can
handle it ourselves,” explains Henriksen. “We
can type in new pallet patterns in the robot direct
from the control panel and have them
operational within 10-15 minutes.”

A dual purpose flow wrapper that allows
cheese wedges and block to be packed
in either reclosable bags or conventional
pillow packs – both with modified
atmosphere – has been added to the
Italian built PFM range of flow wrappers
for the dairy industry.
The new Scirocco PB is based on
PFM’s existing Scirocco inverted MAP
flow wrapper, but is able to produce the
company’s pocket bag pouch style,
reclosable by a pressure sensitive label,
as well as standard pillow packs.
Changeover takes less than 20 minutes.
“This will allow dairies and particularly
the industry’s contract packers to take
advantage of growing interest in
reclosable packaging, but maintain
complete production flexibility,” explains
PFM sales and operations director Chris
Bolton. “The pocket bag style of
reclosure is widely accepted and is one
of the lowest cost methods available.”
The Scirocco PB first die-cuts
one side of the wrapping film with an
extended V-shaped notch to provide
slightly tapered flaps. Product is loaded
onto the film from a belt infeed and
carried by it through a forming box
set at 90 deg to normal so that the
longitudinal seal is made at the side,
which ultimately becomes the head of
the wallet style bag.
The longitudinal seal is made at the
base of the flap, which is then folded
over and held in place by a pressure
sensitive label. Cross-sealing completes
the pack which, once opened via the
peelable longitudinal seal, can be
reclosed with the label.
When conventional pillow packs are
required, the film cutting and forming
stations are exchanged for a traditional
forming box. The longitudinal sealing
mechanism is then lowered automatically
into place via a motor drive.
For handling cheese wedges, which
emerge from the weigh-cutting machine
facing alternately left and right, the
Scirocco PB infeed can also be
equipped with an integrated robot to pick
and place the cheese in a single
orientation.
The new Scirocco PB joins PFM’s
other principal horizontal machine for
reclosable packs, the new BG 2800 Zip.
Three of these are now in operation at
Dairy Crest’s new Nuneaton factory,
creating zipper-style packs of cheese
portions, principally Cathedral City,
the dairy’s leading UK cheddar brand.
The BG 2800 Zip operates in just the
same way as a conventional MAP flow
wrapper but with the longitudinal seal
made at the side where the zipper
profiles are also attached to the inner
faces. Also, instead of the traditional
box or D-motion sealing jaws employed
on high speed MAP machines to give
longer dwell times for hermetic sealing,
there is a series of jaws set around
a cam wheel.
These provide dwell times typically ten
times greater than usual, improving the
quality of hermetic sealing while
allowing the seals to be made through
the zipper by giving time for the polymer
in the profiles to flow. This prevents
voids and hence risk of leaks in the
cross seals.
As a result, the zipper profile can be
fed continuously, rather than be cut to
length and placed between the cross
seal positions, allowing machine speed
to be raised some 5-10 per cent to about
150 packs a minute on typical 400g
packs of block cheese.

A new addition to the 9000
series from Markem-Imaje –
the 9232 small character ink
jet printer – has been
designed to deliver reduced
environmental impact in a
challenging economic
climate.
“Today’s manufacturers
are looking to reduce both
their equipment ownership
costs and their
environmental footprint and
that means addressing all
aspects of the coding
process: the printer, its
consumables, maintenance
requirements and service

The 9232 is
manufactured from 80%
recyclable materials, and a
new range of RoHS-
compliant Ketone and MEK
free inks is available.
Also, power consumption
is reduced and limited to a
maximum of 60VA.
Many new features have

Largest single UK labeller orderPrint and apply labelling
specialist Logopak has
completed the largest single
UK order for its new 400
Series labellers, with twelve
of the machines now
installed at the Yorkshire
based distribution centre of
clothing retailer Next.
The new machines join
18 Logopak 515 Series
hanging garment and tote
labellers installed at Next
over the past three years
and replace a completely
manual operation in which
labels for mail order
customers were produced
with desk-top label printers,
from data entered by hand.
Instead, tote bins used in
assembling each order are
now first identified with bar
codes produced centrally
with each picking list. Then,
as each bin moves to the
packing area, the bar code
is scanned and, via the
warehouse computer, label
data sent to the Logopak
410 machines.
“The 410 machines were
chosen for their small
footprint and also for the
speed of the new
PowerLeap 3 control
system,” points out Logopak
UK sales manager Howard
Jagger. This, he explains,
triples the speed at which
images are formed in the
print head compared with
standard print engines,
giving a high ‘refresh rate’ to
life span which can be
changed without stopping
the coding operation.
A new ink circuit and
specially designed print
head enables the 9232 to
print at speeds of up to 6.6m
a second and a font height
of up to 32 dots provides
quality. With a compact print
head and toughened
umbilical line, the unit can
withstand severe factory
conditions. Housed in an
IP55 stainless steel cabinet
and requiring no plant air
supply, the printer can be
mounted vertically or on a
table top.
“The extreme reliability of
the new printer means that
we have extended our
manufacturer’s warranty to

Luxury car manufacturer Jaguar
turned to sensor and sensing
systems manufacturer Sick (UK)
to help ensure production safety
at its Castle Bromwich facility is
compliant with the new
Machinery Directive.
Because safety is one of the
company’s six core values, it
was vital to ensure the team at
Jaguar’s Castle Bromwich site –
where the XJ, XK and XF
models are produced – is fully
aware of the new Machinery
Directive and able to apply BS
EN ISP 13849-1, the safety
related controls standard that
replaces BS EN 954-1.
Both control and standard
engineers responsible for
process design and maintenance
at the car manufacturer attended
the two one-day Sick seminars.
These seminars have been
designed to give managers,
engineers, OEMs and end
users the tools needed to
comply with the new Machinery
Directive that came into effect on
December 29, 2009.
“While the machinery
manufacturer is responsible for
ensuring that new machinery is
compliant with the directive,
certified and CE marked, the
directive isn’t limited to new
machines,” explains Seb Strutt,
safety specialist at Sick. “Any new
process or system, such as a
production line, is effectively
classed as a new machine, even
when using existing machinery,
and the entire assembly must, as
a whole, comply with the directive.
“The seminars address
common questions relating to the
modification and upgrade of
existing machinery,” he continues.
“Attendees learn how to establish
at what point a modification
should be classed as a new
machine, and therefore requires a
CE mark, and when modification
is subject to the Provision and
Use of Work Equipment Directive.
The two one-day seminars
can be attended as a course or
independently. Delegate places
are priced at £150 a day or £250
for both days.
Seminar dates for this year
are: 16-17 February; 2-3 March;

regulations
Don’t slip on banana skinsDespite the way things may sometimes seem, the committees that develop regulations and directives
relating to machinery work very hard to make them unambiguous and easy to apply. Nevertheless, in such
complex documents, it’s almost impossible to avoid leaving a few ‘banana skins’ for the unwary to slip on,
as Paul Laidler of Laidler Associates explains
You have a piece of equipment
– let’s be careful at this stage
about calling it a machine, for
reasons that will become
apparent later – and you’re
thinking about applying CE
marking to it and issuing a
Declaration of Conformity to
confirm compliance with the
Machinery Directive. But do you
need to do this? Indeed, are
you even allowed to do it? Most
of the time, coming up with the
right answer is straightforward,
but let’s look at a few cases
where it’s not.
Is an electric motor a
machine?
As any engineer will tell you, an
electric motor is a machine. So it
seems obvious that motors must
comply with the requirements of
the Machinery Directive. But in
fact they don’t need to comply,
because a motor is not intended
for a “specific application”. For
the purposes of the Machinery
Directive it is, therefore, not a
machine, as the Directive defines
a machine as “An assembly … of
linked parts … which are joined
together for a specific
application.” Note, however, that
if you fit the motor with a pulley it
may well fall within the definition
of a machine, in which case it will
need to comply with the
Machinery Directive. And, in all
cases, motors have to comply
with the requirements of the Low
Voltage Directive.
Are gas struts machines?
Gas struts certainly aren’t
machines, even in terms of the
Machinery Directive, which talks
about machines as assemblies
fitted with or intended to be fitted
with a drive system other than
directly applied human or animal
effort. It might therefore seem
safe to assume that they are not
covered by the Directive, but once
again that would be incorrect!
Safety components have been
brought within the scope of the
latest version of the Machinery
Directive, if their malfunction can
cause an injury. Gas struts used,
for example, to support heavy lids
fall into this category and must,
therefore, comply.
How does the Machinery
Directive apply to self-built
machines?
If you build a machine yourself to
use in your own factory, it’s
treated just like any other
machine, and it has to comply
with the Machinery Directive. The
key phrase from the Directive is
“placing on the market” which is
defined in the Directive as
“making available for the first time
with a view to distribution or use,
whether for reward or free of
charge”. There are no special
exemptions.
Linking up a couple of old
machines is not a problem,
surely?
Actually, linking together two or
more old machines could be a
really big problem, as they then
form a “complex assembly” in
the terms of the Machinery
Directive. As a result, the whole
assembly must be shown to
comply with the Directive. Note
that it’s not good enough to say
that the machines, before they
were linked, individually
complied with the Directive – the
whole assembly must now be
fully assessed for compliance.
This applies regardless of the
age of the machines. In some
cases with old machines, the
documentation needed to
confirm compliance may simply
not exist. In these circumstances,
the machine will probably have
to be scrapped even if it can
apparently be made safe.
Is it OK to save money by
self-certifying equipment?
For the most part, the Machinery
Directive does allow
self-certification, but it’s doubtful
whether this will save money.
Those who are unfamiliar with the
certification and CE marking
process may well find it confusing
and time consuming, with the
result that they end up spending
more money than if they’d used
the services of an expert third
party. Also, it’s essential to bear in
mind that there are some types of
equipment, defined as dangerous
machines, for which self-
certification is never acceptable.
These are listed in Annex IV of
the Machinery Directive.
The machine I’m buying has a
CE Mark so it must be OK?
The CE Mark is really only the
manufacturer’s claim that the
machine is safe and that they
have complied with the
Directive. The end user still
needs to check the machine to
make sure that they are happy
that it is safe. Regulation 10 of
the Provision and Use of Work
Equipment Regulations
(PUWER) requires that the end
user checks to ensure that any
machinery they are buying
and/or using complies with all
relevant legislation. In the worst
outcome, if an accident happens,
the end-user will be prosecuted
before the machine builder.
