Haver & Boecker, along with its technology subsidiaries Feige Filling, Aventus and Haver Automation, will be showcasing its latest machines at German processing trade show Achema in August.

From stocking to filling and palletising, to the digital networking of entire plants and systems, Haver & Boecker is a technology leader in the packaging industry, which combines the products and services of its subsidiaries to create the optimum material and workflow for its customers. 

It creates completely tailored solutions for each customer, covering an extensive range of fillable products in almost every branch of industry.

With this expertise and decades of experience, customers are offered high-quality, market-leading technologies that also come with unique service, according to Haver & Boecker.

New products from Adams series

With Adams technology, powder products are filled into preformed bags made from a continuous tubular film.

During filling, air is extracted from the bag with the aid of a vibrating lance and a compactor, and next, the packaging itself is hermetically sealed. The result is a completely sealed and very compact bag.

At Achema, Haver & Boecker will be presenting new technical solutions for the Adams technology, which can be used to fill an extended range of products, especially for the pharmaceutical industry.

New Feige Filling touchscreen offers modern HMI

Feige Filling is a market leader for filling liquid and pasty products. This year, the company is celebrating its 50th birthday, and the initial vision to simplify and automate the filling liquids into drums is still at its core. 

The Feige Web HMI was developed and adapted to suit customer requirements, which comes with multi-touch and gesture controls for ease of use. 

A particularly intuitive design ensures quick orientation and optimum use by employees, and consequently higher productivity and shorter training times are achieved. 

In addition, the new recipe management with grouped parameters provides an improved overview. Photos and videos now support alarm-related help texts for easy understanding. 

At Achema, the new Feige Web HMI will be presented live for the first time on the Elementra 19 semi-automatic drum filling station.

Aventus introduces “fastest” FFS machine

Aventus specialises in packing free-flowing bulk materials, such as chemical and petrochemical products, salt or fertilizer.

With an hourly output of over 2600 bags, the Topas SF offers several advantages on the international market, which makes the packing of free-flowing bulk materials, particularly economical and efficient. 

The machine features a high protection against dust contamination, and thus contributes to a cleaner working environment.

The integrated operating system requires very little maintenance and is designed for production at maximum output.

Aventus also plans to present an all-new high-performance palletiser for the chemical industry. 

Less downtime thanks to intelligent systems

Haver Automation offers solutions for digital control, monitoring and analysis or processes – from packing to logistics. 

The company's Quatr²ro System Intelligence covers the entire range of digital options for intelligent networking, control and analysis of machines.

The system has been significantly enhanced and today offers, among other things, the integration of an OEE system that reveals optimisation potential through complex key figures. 

The newly developed Quatr²ro Batch System, which documents every product batch to support quality management, will also be presented.

The systems from Haver Automation provide data in real time and enable direct connection with experts in case of critical situations. 

Early detection of potential maintenance problems, cost reduction and optimum resource planning are just some of the many advantages of intelligent systems, which are individually adapted to specific customer requirements.

Maximising results with PROcheck

With the new lifecycle approach PROcheck, Haver & Boecker accompanies its customers through the entire lifecycle of their machines, thus uncovering the full potential of their processes.

The aim is to continuously optimise machines, systems and plants so that they operate safely, profitably, effectively and successfully – for achieving a perfect process.

The PROcheck approach includes diagnostics, rebuilds and modernisation, spare parts and consumables. It is also offered by the technology subsidiaries as an individual all-round service.

Select Harvests managing director, David Surveyor, said the company’s $1.5 million net profit after tax (NPAT) for FY24, represents more than a $116 million turnaround from FY23, with an operating cash flow of $21.3 million being a 545.5 per cent increase on FY23.

Maggie Beer Holdings chair, Susan Thomas, told shareholders at this week’s AGM the board acknowledged the company must focus on earnings growth, capitalise on its “incredible” brand equity, and provide “proof points, not promises” to win back investor confidence after a year in which the company lost its CEO, CFO, and reported a $28.2 million loss.

Australian wine has received another international accolade, after a high-performing year for the industry. The 2022 Giaconda Estate Vineyard Chardonnay secured second place in US-based wine publication Vinous' Top 100 Wines of 2024.
