Whereas many packaging machine manufacturers rely on standard machines with sliding, stacking, and sorting chains, Transnova Ruf uses tailored, robot-based packaging, palletizing, and handling solutions. This creates space-saving, energy-efficient compact systems with high power density and fast format changeovers. This innovative company can now deliver well over 100 turnkey packaging lines per year for picking, packing, and palletizing.These solutions are precisely tailored to their customers’ requirements and cover the entire process chain for final packaging.As a result, the company is now recording double-digit annual growth.
The proportional pressure regulators VPPM are embedded in the valve manifold CPX/MPA. Its electrical component has analog and digital inputs and outputs that can be used to control and monitor individual sections of the process. The CPX can be accessed online via the internet, for retrieval of diagnostic data. This means that, whenever maintenance is required, remote diagnostics can be used to quickly determine whether the problem is easy to rectify or, in extremely rare cases, whether the entire valve or valve manifold need to be replaced. “As a medium-sized company, we can now provide our global network of customers with the best possible service,” said Michael Ruf with a smile.
