Secure, economic and eco-efficient: the 4-Way palletless pack
Filling, palletizing and wrapping – the Möllers Packaging Technology stages the world of packaging concepts
Moscow. January 2017. The Russian packaging industry relies on proven, high-performance and innovative packaging concepts from the Möllers Packaging Technology. The presentation of the 4-Way palletless pack is eagerly awaited at Moscow’s Upakowka, the international trade fair for packaging and packaging machinery which takes place from January 22 to 24.
Since 1952, the Möllers Packaging Technology has been building on the Full Line. High Quality. The Full-Line systems for filling – wrapping and securing installed in the Russian market - packing and securing have proven themselves in the petrochemical and building materials industry for at least 30 years - contribute to the company's excellent reputation in the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS). Whether in the field of solid filling or with solutions from the subsidiary Greif-Velox for liquid filling - the Westphalian manufacturer brings the core variables of product, container and filling and sealing technology on a safe and economic denominator. Reason enough to install a service team on site in Moscow - specialists who exclusively serve customers in these countries. The Möllers Moscow team is also proof of the practical relevance of the pioneering idea of bundling the holistic approach of "Total Cost of Ownership" into tangible products.
Increasing savings potentials into the millions
“The close contact of our specialists to the customer and the knowledge which is gained on the machine in every day production makes it possible for us to make efficiency measureable, to create quality and to plan maintenance. The product, Premium Field Service, is supported by 5 strong pillars with the core themes plant efficiency, targeted training, quality standards, scheduled maintenance and continuous improvement“, says Frenzel, explaining the World-Class-Performance-Strategy.
In the realm of plant efficiency, especially with existing systems and via the measurement- and optimization tool PRODUCAT®II, maximum performance is achieved with a competitive edge of up to 40%.
Targeted training: The Möllers Packaging Technology Academy offers customers, business partners and their own competence teams an ultra-modern, fully-equipped seminar facility for theoretical learning covering a total area of 1250 square metres. In the adjacent workshop practical implementation of what has been learnt takes place on the world’s only palletless line on a production scale.
Defining quality standards, experts analyse in concrete on-site audits systems and internal processes and present concrete improvement recommendations.
Scheduled maintenance: Fixed maintenance contracts with know-how transfer create basis preconditions for independent operation and internal handover of basic maintenance. Through scheduled maintenance downtimes can be largely avoided – and conceal savings potential of up to 20%.
In the course of internal, continuous improvement with “Premium Field Service“ (PFS), an ongoing optimization process of continuous improvement in machine performance is defined. In constant dialog with the customer, the goal of cost reduction and spare-part management is proactively driven.
Patent applied for: the 4-Way palletless pack
The presentation of the 4-Way palletless pack is anticipated with great interest: it allows pick-up by fork-lift truck from all sides during handling, thus optimizing the combined transport of sea, rail and truck freight in the worldwide transport of goods. Moreover, variable pack receival facilitates handling in the warehouse and in the open next to the production site.
The palletless, waterproof and UV-resistant shipping units are extremely stable, safe and self-supporting. The time-consuming and cost-intensive logistics for empty pallets is eliminated.
Pallet costs no longer apply, the film load-unit is completely recyclable and thanks to reduced CO2 emissions, it results in a positive “carbon footprint“..
