PREVIEW PPMA 2015
SAFE HANDLING EQUIPMENT
SUSTAINABLE METAL DETECTORS
Fortress will reveal a range of sustainable metal detectors for food manufacturers and packers with exceptional return on investment (ROI) guaranteed. The Never Obsolete range of gravity fed, horizontal vector conveyor and pipeline detectors incorporate the latest technological developments to ensure that they are never obsolete during the course of their lifespan, often 20+ years. With equipment longevity now a key concern for food factories
looking to improve their green credentials some producers and packers are seeking guaranteed ROI, TCO and OEE on production line machinery. To assist them in achieving their goals Fortress engineered the Never Obsolete range to be fully upgradable no matter how regularly or extensively industry standards, regulations or retailer Codes of Practice (COP) change. “Sustainability is at the heart of Fortress’s customer value
Jarshire offers handling equipment and ancillary items that address the needs of operators in terms of safety and efficiency. Centre piece will be the latest Dotec RH90 roll handler and roll unloading trolley. Combined, the two systems provide fast and efficient handling for roll production and for the slitting, rewinding, converting, printing and packaging processes. Benefits include capacity to match
high-speed slitters; quicker processing time by avoiding manual unloading and packaging; and less intensive physical effort for the operator - all leading to more efficient handling and lower process costs. Dotec offers the widest range of roll handling solutions for the flexible packaging and nonwoven hygiene markets. Also featured, the Moviroll roll/
reel pusher from Renova allows the operator to effortlessly manoeuvre both large and small cylindrical loads on a flat surface and then place them on the roll stand or shuttle cart. Two original models each with different handle configurations make it suitable for handling paper, tissue and converting rolls in a simple and safe manner. Battery-operated models offer free movement without the constraints of pneumatic connections or electrical cables. Lightweight airshafts from
Svecom made from aircraft-grade aluminium can increase process speed. The low weight of the shaft body allows easy and safe manual handling, resulting in efficient insertion and withdrawal of the shaft from the reels, increasing production through quicker changes.

proposition,” explains managing director Sarah Ketchin. “We want to put a stop to ‘good kit’ becoming redundant and thrown away when revisions to industry standards affect production line equipment. We are the only known UK equipment manufacturer to guarantee that its inspection equipment will never become obsolete before the end of its natural lifespan. This helps food factories realise the equipment’s full potential, resulting in considerable economic and environmental benefits.” Inspection systems can be affected by changes to industry standards every couple of years, sometimes more frequently. When the latest fail safe
automated processes including the need for more advanced reject confirmation systems and interlocked reject bins were stipulated by M&S in 2012 other retailers swiftly followed. Fortress collaborated with key
food manufacturers to ensure existing equipment didn’t become redundant, introducing software and safety feature upgrades at 30% of the cost of a new system.
