ATS PACKAGING TAKES CENTRE STAGE AT PPMA SHOW 2023

ATS Packaging will have a major presence at this year’s PPMA Show with two stands that showcase the company’s wide range of packaging machinery for a variety of end markets including personal care, pharmaceuticals, food & beverage, medical, homecare and automotive.

The stands will focus in particular on ATS’s ability to provide turnkey filling line solutions, including bottle unscramblers, liquid filling machines, lidding / capping machines and end of line automated packing systems.

A major highlight will be the company’s ‘turnkey and complete’ end of line Spray Trigger Capping System that offers a complete spray trigger feeding, capping, robotic cartoning / packing / sealing and palletising solution.   The advanced system provides radial control and alignment of spray trigger devices relative to container orientation to ensure fast and accurate placement via an automatic trigger feeding system.

The Spray Trigger Capping System is the latest addition to ATS’s range of advanced capping machines, which will also be on display at the show. All incorporate high-precision tightening technology featuring fully programmable torque, speed, applied force and vertical positioning of the capping head to provide a guaranteed tightening operation with factory networked closure result storage (CSR).

In addition, ATS will demonstrate its FBL range of jar lidding and filling machines for the food and drink sector, which ensure the fast and efficient automatic filling and tightening of glass jars and metal Twist-Off (TO) and Press-on, Twist-Off (PT) closures, with or without a vacuum seal. They are suitable for a wide variety of products including mayonnaise, tomato ketchup, cooking sauces, pickled vegetables, jams and honey. 

All ATS-designed solutions also offer fast changeovers between different formats thanks to the adoption of SMED (Single Minute Exchange of Die) principles that allow change-parts to be changed over quickly in under 10-minutes with minimal fuss and instant return to maximum production efficiency.

Other ATS packing line solutions on display include a range of GMS versatile bottle unscramblers that allow multiple container formats to be carefully sorted and orientated in a single machine system, and the SK Pharma range of high-performance and durable Mixing Vessels.

The PPMA Show will also provide the first opportunity for ATS to demonstrate the latest automated pallet wrapping machines from the newly established Matco International UK.

The dual stand format at stands H42 and J40 incorporates a specially created social area for visitors, offering snacks and a bar.
