Innovative exhibits at PackMach Asia Expo

SSP Packaging Industries will showcase several cutting-edge machines at PackMach Asia Expo taking place from 23 to 25 October 2024 at Bombay Exhibition Center (BEC), Mumbai. Sahni shared details of the exhibits, including:

• Isobaric Filler 50x50x15: "An isobaric filling machine works on a thermodynamic process in which the pressure remains constant. In the case of isobaric filling, a back pressure similar to the one present inside the supply tank is generated inside the bottle, in order to perform a fast and effective filling. We are able to propose clients Isobaric machines with higher-than-average performance levels, foamless or controlled foam filling even at temperatures of around 15°C. This technology is implemented not only to fill glass bottles using a traditional system, but also PET bottles using a Neck Handling system."

• Combibloc (Blow-Fill-Seal) – 10x50x15: "Blow Fill Cap technology represents an advanced method of manufacturing wherein a container is formed, filled, and sealed through a continuous and automated system. In this rotary type blowing machine, the contiform is heated and then blown into bottles by a high-pressure jet of air. The container is then filled and sealed with caps using a pick-and-place mechanism with magnetic capping heads."

• Robotic Palletizer: "It uses the latest technology advanced Codian D5 Robot for unscrambling and loading of bottles in pucks. Designed for high speed and performance, this one-of-a-kind machine is capable of loading any shape and size of bottles on the pucks. The robot picks the bottles and transfers them into the pucks on the parallel running worm conveyor."

PackMach Asia Expo: A platform for growth

Sahni acknowledged the importance of platforms like PackMach Asia Expo in achieving business goals. "PackMach Asia Expo is an exhibition for the packaging and processing industry. It brings together all the prospective clients in one place, which allows us to get connected with them and help provide solutions to their needs in the liquid bottle packaging industry."

Reflecting on past experiences, he added, "We have converted some of the good inquiries into our client list, hoping for a better response this time."

A warm welcome to visitors

Sahni extended a warm invitation to visitors and buyers attending the event. "For visitors and buyers, I just want to say a big welcome to everyone. You should visit our stall and have a look at the only Indian company to develop a Combi (Blow-Fill-Seal) machine that we are displaying. We also provide solutions for all types of liquid packaging needs."

As SSP Packaging Industries prepares for its participation in PackMach Asia Expo 2024, Sahni reflects on the company’s future. "Our vision is to be the most advanced, reliable, and high-end technology service provider in the ever-growing liquid packaging industry. We aim to increase our knowledge and capabilities as a service provider and become the global supplier of choice, providing quality services preferred by our customers."
