bosch packaging technology has been awarded the german packaging award deutscher verpackungspreis in the packaging machines category by the german packaging institute deutsches verpackungsinstitut &ndash dvi.the award recognises the company&rsquos innovative twoinone biscuit packaging system, which was first presented at interpack 2014 in duesseldorf earlier this year. bossel, product manager, and christian reichardt, mechanical development engineer, at bosch packaging systems ag in beringen, accepted the award at a ceremony as part of the &ldquobraubeviale&rdquo trade fair for production and marketing of drinks in nuremberg.the twoinone packaging system allows food manufacturers to switch from slug to pile packs and vice versa in less than three minutes. additionally, product count changes can be completed quicker now than with conventional slug or pile packaging machines. thanks to this flexibility, manufacturers are able to run special promotions with short notice and react quickly to market changes, for example for seasonal or promotional campaigns. what is more, the twoinone system presently occupies a smaller production area than two separate conventional machines for both packaging types. the whole line is designed to be a single, seamless system, from product discharge through to primary and secondary packaging. the speed of all components is balanced to optimise production flow and eliminate bottlenecks. the packaging line therefore contributes significantly to increasing overall equipment effectiveness.source httpwww.confectioneryproduction.com12206newsgermanpackagingaward
