Organisers for the event say many of the exhibitors will be launching new solutions, with the latest to sign up including the Qimarox Prorunner mk5 ideal for vertical sorting and the Eriez Magnetics vibratory feeders for metering controlled product feed. Nerida Kelton, spokeswoman for Auspack, says, “The Prorunner mk5 products lift works according to the time-honoured paternoster principle, which results in a versatile vertical transport system with a capacity of 2,000 products per hour. Because a single elevator system can be used for both upward and downward product flows, the Prorunner mk5 is ideal for vertical sorting. “Unlike other continuous product elevators, the Prorunner mk5 can feed products in and out in three directions, without the need for additional equipment. Whether it is boxes, crates, trays or bags, this product elevator transports them all to any desired level and without any critical product transitions. All products are transported horizontally at all times, so that product deformations are excluded. She says visitors interested in vibratory feeders for metering controlled product feed can head over to stand 744 where Eriez Magnetics will be showcasing their comprehensive range of products to complement and safeguard packaging lines. “Ask Eriez Magnetics about their new range of vibratory feeders for metering controlled product feed to weighing and packaging equipment. Also displayed will be permanent and electromagnets for the removal of damaging tramp metal and Metalarm metal detectors for further protective filtering of processes,” Kelton adds. The National Technical Forums, designed to deliver educational programmes covering a broad range of topics relating to the theme Open Innovation & Collaboration, will also form part of this year’s Auspack.
