Nerak has implemented a new European high- performance packing line for world's largest producer of pistachio nuts.
Sweet as a nut F
ollowing overseas success, the world's largest producer of pistachio nuts decided to turn its attention to expansion in Europe.
It came to Nerak with a very clear vision: to launch a Europe-wide sales drive supported by a new packing line in Belgium.
Nerak, a leading manufacturer of
bucket elevators, came up with an integrated and closely managed project proposal which addressed the needs of the customer, including: • Flexible, efficient and high-performing equipment for the new packing line; • Equipment which handled the products gently;
• Smart solutions which allowed access for high-standard hygiene regimes; • Smooth internals inside equipment to cut down on any product build-up. Nerak’s concept design was for a fully integrated process line incorporating bucket elevators, vibratory feed conveyors, weighers, wrappers, dust extraction and a stainless steel mezzanine floor. The need for gentleness as well as efficiency was met by the installation of easily removable, metal-detectable food-quality buckets for the bucket elevators. Hygiene requirements were met by removable access panels with key-type interlocks to allow safe entry for cleaning purposes. Smooth equipment interiors were incorporated as standard to minimise the need
for
unnecessary maintenance.
The project included the supply of other equipment and the inclusion of the specialist items to a pre-agreed timescale and budget. This included on-site installation, controls and commissioning.
The project was completed within the requisite timescale and to a high standard, from the initial design stage, to the two-week installation period, to the later addition of extra enhancements. The entire process, from design to completion, took just 12 weeks from the initial order. The tight deadlines were met thanks to Nerak's high levels of efficiency and professionalism, its team integrating well with the local workforce. ●
