Automation is from Star Automation Europe SpA, and labels from Verstraete in Belgium. An eKW45PI/5500 all-electric press will be running a 96-cavity closure mold, molding type 1881 closures, from Corvaglia Mould AG (Switzerland), with a cycle time of 3.9 seconds.
Also running will be an eKW55PI/2200 hybrid molding 590-ml PP containers weighing 12.75g, in a 6-cavity mold from Fostag Formenbau AG (Switzerland), and automation from Ilsemann Automation GmbH, with a 3.7-second cycle time.
The eKW10PI/480 all-electric press will run a 2-cavity 250-ml container weighing 8g. Star Automation is supplying the automation and the mold is from SCS Srl, Italy. An eKW28PI/1300 hybrid molding machine will mold a 5-liter pail in a single-cavity mold featuring in-mold labeling. Campetella Robotic Center Srl, Italy, provides the automation. The mold was manufactured by Top Grade Mold Ltd., Canada. Cycle time is 4.9 seconds.
