First joint stand at interpack 2011
Tuesday 19. April 2011 - The two sister companies Finnah Packtec GmbH, Ahaus, and Finnah Protec GmbH, Bonndorf (Black Forest), that are co-operating as part of the Stulz H+E Group, based in Grafenhausen, will have their first joint exhibition at this years Interpack, in Hall 6, stand B 02.
As independent acting partners, the companies specialise in the milk and beverage industry as well as for food and pharamceutical applications. From a technical point of view, they cover the entire production process from receipt of raw materials, aseptic filling of liquid to highly viscous products up to the final packaging.
Finnah Protec GmbH, whose business area is process technology, is manufacturing tanks resp. sterile tanks, pasteurizing systems, UHT heat exhangers, diverse filtration plants and mixing systems. Additionally, CIP and water treatment plants are offered. Their interface with the product programme of Finnah Packtec GmbH is – for example in the dairy industry – with the aseptic valve cluster for sterile tanks.
At the beginning of 2010, the Westphalian company Finnah Packtec GmbH arose from the previous Finnah Engineering & Packaging GmbH and has its manufacturing focused on building form, fill, seal machines as well as cup and bottle fillers. Rebuilds and modification of existing plants and also plants from other suppliers, make the perfect complete offer.
In Duesseldorf an aseptic piston valve filling system, to fill liquid products with particles of up to 10 mm edge length into plastic bottles with a maximum volume of 500 ml, is presented. Its special feature is the gentle filling of product which is realized in two steps. The system is equipped with two differently dimensioned dosing pistons, initially filling one third and then two thirds of the total volume into the bottle.
A further highlight presented is a sterile water module, which also shows that the process technology direct on the packaging machine is becoming steadily more important. The module prepares water under sterile conditions by means of filtration so that the filling nozzles can be cooled aseptically and if needed – for example for product change – be rinsed intermediately.
