Efficient filling of micronized waxes at Reagens

GREIF-VELOX is one of the oldest companies in the world with 1,000 years of company history: In the year 1,100, monks founded the Greifenmühle in Klützow in Pomerania, laying the foundations for many centuries of practical experience in efficient bagging, filling and palletizing. Ernst Mahlkuch, whose family had owned the Greifenmühle since 1734, used this experience to found GREIF-WERKE in 1938, which has been designing and producing innovative bagging machines and filling systems ever since. After 1945, GREIF-VELOX grew out of this foundation in Lübeck, Germany, with over 150 experts, who cultivate the tradition of over 1,000 years of innovation culture every day and thus constantly set new benchmarks in the industry. Customers do not need standard solutions off the shelf, but individual concepts and developments. As a rule, this individuality not only increases production quality and quantity, but also leads to strong competitive advantages that quickly pay for themselves. On request, GREIF-VELOX can supply complete full-line systems including robot palletizing and load securing from a single source to further enhance these advantages for the customer.

Clean, safe and scalable handling of extremely fine-powdered carbon black. When high-tech materials meet sophisticated packaging technology, precision is required. Birla Carbon has set the bagging specialist Greif-Velox precisely this challenge. The world’s leading supplier of carbon black is expanding into electromobility with a newly developed product for lithium-ion batteries. The carbon black variant from Birla Carbon is extremely fine-powdered, electrically conductive and essential for modern batteries. However, it is precisely these properties that make the material particularly difficult to handle: low density, high dust formation, high cleanliness requirements. Efficient bagging for the battery technology of tomorrow The solution? The VeloVac vacuum packer - specially developed for ultra-light powders such as carbon black, silica or color pigments. As a full-line system including ValvoSeal ultrasonic sealing and VeloPack handling robots, the complete package now offers Birla Carbon a fully automated, dust-free and highly scalable packaging process - from the product infeed to the finished stacked pallet.

Packaging machine specialist Greif-Velox launches “Packaging as a Service” for the bagging of ultra-light powders With a new “Packaging as a Service” (PaaS) model, Greif-Velox Maschinenfabrik GmbH is offering an integrated service package for industrial powder bagging without any initial investment for the first time. The offer includes machine provision, financing, service, spare parts and merchandise parts as well as the supply of suitable paper bags as required - at a fixed monthly price. End-to-end solution for ultra-light powders While previous PaaS models in the packaging industry were limited to cardboard or reusable packaging solutions, GREIF-VELOX transfers the principle to complex industrial bagging systems - and goes one step further: the package not only includes consumables, but also the entire process from financing to commissioning and spare parts supply. The first application is in combination with VeloVac vacuum technology for dust-free filling of ultra-light powders. An expansion to other machine types such as the A-DOS-P1 and the BVP gross pneumatic packer

New standards in packaging technology: Greif-Veloxpresents the Clean Cycle of Packaging for the efficient bagging of carbon black powder New standards in packaging technology: Greif-Velox presents the Clean Cycle of Packaging for the efficient bagging of carbon black Greif-Velox, leading packaging machine manufacturer, is revolutionizing the bagging of carbon black with its new solution, the Clean Cycle of Packaging. This innovative combination of product, packaging system and container sets new benchmarks in the packaging industry by enabling efficient, clean and compact bagging of ultra-light carbon black. The coordinated components, consisting of the Greif-Velox vacuum packer VeloVac and the bag development SafeDyVac, offer manufacturers considerable advantages: Transport and logistics costs are reduced by up to 75 percent, CO2 emissions are minimized and the product and employees are protected by a dust-free process. The high compaction of the product also reduces transport volumes and increases the stability of the packaging. Innovative bag development in cooperation with dy-pack The innovative
