Bosch launches non-contact product distribution system

Bosch Packaging Technology, one of the leading suppliers of complete solutions in processing and packaging technology, is introducing the new product distribution system Transver SDP in cooperation with its partner Rotzinger AG, at two events: PACK EXPO Las Vegas 2013 and FachPack 2013 in Nuremberg, Germany.

The Transver SDP is especially suited to meet the demands of the world’s growing food markets. The product distribution system features a modular depositing pullnose station designed for fully automated format changeovers and simple adjustment to product-specific characteristics. In addition, the modular design of the station supports easy maintenance and cleaning. The non-contact belt system operates without side guides, ensuring high product quality – even for sticky and fragile food products, such as cereal bars, muffins, soft biscuits, cupcakes, chocolates and irregularly-shaped baked goods. 

State-of-the-art technology for highest efficiency

The Transver SDP features the latest servo-drive technology for efficiency and reliability. The system easily integrates upstream into existing packaging lines, giving manufacturers the benefit of a single-source solution supplier. “For companies looking to automate their packaging operations, the Transver SDP provides a particularly attractive price performance ratio,” said Andreas Schildknecht, global product manager for horizontal packaging at Bosch Packaging Technology. “Manufacturers profit from the latest product distribution technology to handle even the most challenging food products, achieving a high Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE).”

Hygienic design facilitates speedy cleaning

To support hygiene, an easy-to-clean stainless steel frame was designed to withstand cleaning solvents and processes. In addition, double wing doors allow full access. Other hygienic elements include the hybrid signal and power cables to minimize wiring and speed up equipment installation.
