“The R 085 has made it possible for us to get into automatic thermoforming packaging.”
Nice Garden Industrial Co. Ltd. has set itself the task of bringing high-quality and healthy products from the farm to the consumer's table. “Food derived from animal sources can in our view only be healthy for the consumer and suitable for consumption, if we pay the greatest attention to quality in the early stages of the supply chain, and if we then systematically pursue this aim through all the subsequent stages,” says Kevin Wu, COO at Nice Garden, with conviction.

Automation in meat processing offers a wide range of benefits
The food industry is booming. An ever increasing number of fresh and processed food products, snacks, ready meals, and convenience products have to be manufactured and packed. But it has become more difficult to find suitable or qualified staff. There is currently an acute lack of personnel in the meat processing sector. At the same time, hygiene and quality requirements are increasing. Automation solutions provide one way out of the dilemma. However, robots have been used to a very limited extent in the meat industry up to now.

Perfect slicing results for fresh meat and processed products
Precise weight control in the portioning and slicing of meat or sausage products is one of the standard requirements in industrialised processing of fresh food. The slicing quality of the finished product is influenced significantly by the tempering and forming of the raw product, as well as by the slicing technology used. In this article we have compiled those aspects, which need to be taken into account with slicing, depending on the particular product and the outline conditions.

Automated label and print inspection in the food industry
Rising demands in food labelling increase the complexity of information that has to be printed on labels. As the throughput of packaging lines continues to increase, it is no longer possible for the human eye to inspect label print thoroughly. Although present legislation does not yet stipulate the use of visual inspection systems for checking labels, investment in automatic inspection systems can be very beneficial for many reasons.

Beef attractively packed with MultiFresh™
In China the current meat consumption of 62 kilograms per head annually is around two kilos higher than in Germany. Despite state-sponsored campaigns to reduce meat consumption, this trend is likely to continue due to rising incomes. Consumer behaviour, particularly among the urban population, also shows a growing tendency towards packaged food, convenience products and ready meals. One company, which is already exploiting this development, is Dafang Fupin.

Sustainable packaging concepts for sliced cheese
Thanks to the driving force of the EU's Plastics Strategy and new packaging legislation, the issue of sustainability is now gaining increasing importance in the packing of dairy products. At the same time the strict hygiene regulations must however continue to be observed, while also maintaining the maximum shelf life for the food products. Innovative packaging concepts can help to master the difficult balancing act between sustainability, product protection, and retaining quality.

Wine serving 4.0 – how a Belgian start-up company revolutionizes the hospitality industry
The trend in wine consumption in the hotel and restaurant sector is clearly moving towards serving wine by the glass.

The development of a suitable solution and new wine packaging proved to be highly ambitious. The inventors therefore turned to MULTIVAC for implementing a marketable and innovative solution.
