Poeth Big-Bag Squeezz

Poeth specialises in high-quality machines and production lines for processing a broad range of dry materials. We develop, produce, and install all our machines and carry out all our projects with our own staff, allowing us to provide flexible and affordable tailor-made solutions for our clients. First established in 1921, we have acquired a rich store of knowledge and experience in the agricultural and industrial sectors, and we are now a leading player in production processes for the feed, food, brewery, and bulk industrial sectors. Industries Poeth develops, produces, erects and commissions, sophisticated machinery and production lines for various processes in solids handling. Our knowledge and experience is mainly based on agri-industrial processes, since 1921. Applications of Poeth machinery and process experience are found in food processing as well as f.i. in recycling of bio-mass. An important product is an extensive program of industrial dust-filters. Products Technological Solutions for Solids Processing: Our product range includes high-quality technology and service solutions for the handling, conveying and processing in different industries. We consult and support our clients during decisions on important investments with knowhow and experience. With our advanced filter program we help you to solve emission problems. Experience is available for a wide range of dusty products.

Poeth Solids Processing developed a mixer to fit a low space. A three metre long bottom valve ensures 100% residue free discharge. For one of our long-term customers who specialises in baking raw materials, Poeth custom-made a 4 m3 single-shaft agitator. The company had an old belt mixer, but it no longer met current requirements such as residue-free, mixing accuracy and mixing time. The new mixer had to fit into the existing space. All single-axis paddle mixers available on the market were rejected. Poeth Solids Processing was asked to look for a solution and developed a bespoke mixer specifically for this application. The use of a 3 metre long bottom valve ensures 100% residue free discharge. This bottom valve is placed along the entire length of the trough, from end plate to end plate. No edges where the product can remain after the batch has been discharged. Together with the customer, the system was extensively tested for issues such as tightness, homogeneity and mixing time. After this successful FAT test, the entire mixing system will be assembled on site in a few weeks. We

The controller retrieves the recipes from an external ERP system so that the operator no longer has to enter the recipes manually, thus avoiding typing errors. Breatec B.V. (part of BRAIN Biotech AG) develops enzymes and enzyme mixtures for flour mills, bread improver manufacturers, pasta and noodle producers and distributors. Breatec expansion Due to huge demand for natural ingredients in the form of enzymes, Breatec decided to expand production. Breatec was looking for an automated line that could dose microcomponents accurately, but above all could ensure a maximum emission standard of 0.6 mg/m³ dust load for the operator. Food ingredients such as enzymes can be harmful if inhaled frequently in too high a concentration. The new extension had to be built into the existing (limited) space. Cooperation Poeth-Breatec Breatec challenged six suppliers to set up a smart basic concept. After extensive preliminary research, Poeth Solids Processing was selected for pre-engineering to develop the concept further. ”Poeth quickly came up with inventive and practical solutions,” explains operational director Jacobus Richter

Increasing delivery times and transport costs of products from Asia increase the demand for Poeth filters. Poeth has tripled its production capacity for semi-finished products. “We are for the production of our dust filters not dependent on deliveries from parts from Asia or other distant places”, says Commercial Director Loe Verheijen - Poeth Solids Processing. “Almost all parts of our dust filters are produced in-house. Which means that we also can offer and supply tailor-made Filters. (rectangular and cylindrical bag filters) Recently there has been installed a new LVD fiber laser cutting machine with coupled a CNC bending machine to be even more efficient and work more accurately. Thanks to modern software is no longer necessary between engineering and the production of semi-finished products.” Poeth therefore has the production capacity for semi-finished products tripled, what the outsourcing of this work superfluous has made. “So there are many fewer transport movements. Which is not only much more efficient, but above all better for the environment.” Since the transportation costs for sea containers and delivery

Poeth has developed a new generation of big bag fillers with greatly improved ergonomics. The big bag filling stations feature several improvements. Poeth has developed a new generation of big bag fillers with greatly improved ergonomics. The big bag filling stations feature the following improvements. Improvements * tiltable filling head * movable hooks * automatic release of big bag loops * automatic buttoning of filling trunk * automatic stacking of big bags Tiltable filling head By making the filling head tiltable, it is much more accessible for the operator. Certainly with high capacities (> 20 big bags per hour) this can prevent back complaints. Movable hooks The loops of the big bag must be hung on hooks. The rear hooks are often difficult to reach. By making the hooks mobile, they slide forward so that the loops can be easily attached. This also prevents unnecessary back pain. Automatic release of big bag loops After filling, the loops are automatically disconnected. The system is also suitable for a very wide range of big-bag dimensions, without manually moving the suspension hooks. Further
