Among the system’s many features,
the length and width of the indexing
conveyor can be customised to
accommodate particular de-nesting
and filling requirements. Full or partial
vacuum systems can be incorporated
to enable post seal processes such
as retort or High Pressure Processing
(HPP), and X-ray inspection systems
and checkweighers can be included
after sealing for enhanced quality
control. The AP60 also offers seamless
integration with third party process
equipment including depositors,
multihead weighing applications and
CIP systems with sealing speeds of up
to 240 packs per minute.
“As the pet food market continues
to expand, we were keen to provide

“The flexibility of our technology and
the wide variety of machines available,
including fully integrated conveyor
systems, mean we can offer a full
turnkey production line solution which
is key for this particular market.
We are delighted that our expertise can

differentiation in the competitive pet
food sector.”
