Interpack 2023: Cama Group to present robotized chocolate packaging line with Industry 4.0 architecture
10 Mar 2023 --- Cama Group will use this year’s Interpack trade show in Düsseldorf, Germany, May 4-10, to demonstrate its evolution over the last six years. The company has invested in R&D, which have led to the creation of high-technology packaging solutions that are setting the pace across multiple industries.
Central to the company’s stand is a turnkey robotized naked chocolate packaging line, developed for a leading North American confectionary brand.
In Hall 13 at stand A33, event visitors can explore a combination of advanced mechanical design and a modern high-tech digital automation infrastructure by Cama Group. The resulting solution is capable of handling 14 different packaging formats, with rapid changeover between them.
Showtime
Cama specialists will also be on hand to highlight the things customers can’t see, such as the machine’s full Industry 4.0 architecture, “extremely” quick RFID-managed part changeovers and comprehensive augmented reality (AR) capabilities, for training, operation, maintenance and spares.
The company will also showcase a line-supervision and data-collection system for machine learning, artificial intelligence (AI) and analytics.
It will present an “extensive” AR capability, which will be the subject of a separate display area where specialists from the company will introduce a variety of machines and packaging technologies installed around the world.
The packaging line to be presented at Interpack 2023.Alongside Cama’s digital capabilities, it will also showcase real-world specialisms, with a large array of packaging styles, types and materials from industries across the entire F&B, home and health and pet food sectors, available in different shapes, sizes, counts, flavors and volumes.
Another element of demanding packaging lines around the world will also be on display in the shape of Cama’s “best-selling” FW Case Packer. Capable of packaging corrugated cases at the rate of 25 per minute, the FW series has proved to be a real workhorse across multiple industries, the company shares.
Meeting Cama at Interpack
According to Alessandro Rocca, group sales director at Cama: “We never slowed down during the pandemic and Interpack 2023 will show the fruits of all our hard work. Our AR solution has proved immensely popular on both existing and new-build machines and the line supervisor solution on the showcased machine is illustrative of our next evolution, which will see us leveraging machine data and AI to extract every possible percentage point of efficiency out of our solutions.”
Cama is accepting meeting requests for the show, where visitors will be able to explore solutions with local representatives from Europe, North America and Asia. There will also be a hotline to the company’s systems engineering team in Italy, which will turn around system design ideas in 24 hours, so visitors can see their own potential solutions in action the next day at the event.
“We have so much to exhibit this year,” Alessandro concludes, “I personally cannot wait to show off our sustainable solutions and expanded capabilities and then showcase how we have solved so many customer challenges over the last six years. We look forward to meeting everyone there.”
