GEA to unveil latest industrial solutions and machine technology
26 November 2018
Technology group GEA is set to unveil latest industrial solutions and machine technology for the confectionery, snack and bakery industries.
The firm will offer customers and interested parties in-depth insights into its efficient industrial solutions and machine technology for the confectionery, snack and bakery industries at its ProSweets 2019.
A look inside the machines, discussions with technology experts and live machine demonstrations with a focus on the unique features of GEA plant technology are planned.
Product highlights include the recently launched GEA SmartPacker CX250-S, a vertical form-fill-seal packaging system (VFFS) for high-speed packing of confectionery, snacks and nuts and the GEA Aquarius TwistWrapper for lollipops with its unique OverlapSeal option. This easy to open option provides unique added value to lollipop packaging.
GEA will also highlight its innovative process and technology solutions for the bakery segment by showcasing a range of delicious bakery products produced by GEA equipment onsite at its ProSweets booth.
GEA combines its proprietary technologies and full line integration capabilities to provide turnkey systems for a wide range of products from a single source.
The new vertical bagger from GEA builds on the success of its predecessors and integrates new technologies, which makes it quicker and easier to use while providing increased production efficiency and improved bag quality. The jaws of the GEA SmartPacker operate with an impressively high seal force – almost twice as high as the previous model – to enable gas-tight bags across a greater range of film materials.
This gives manufacturers more flexibility, can help reduce film costs and ultimately improve the total cost of ownership (TCO). The new sealing jaws also create more accurate and stable longitudinal and cross seals for improved pack quality and presentation.
