Extrusion Asia Edition 2-2018

34 中空成型 Extrusion Asia Edition 2/2018 在消费者通常更为注重健康的背景下，以牺牲加糖饮料 为代价，100%果汁、瓶装水和凉茶饮料的销售有了强劲的增 长。这一趋势的例子之一就是新型欢乐家聚酯包装椰奶，这 种基于植物的产品是乳品饮料的替代品，已在整个中国市场 上实现了销售。此前，中国食品和饮料制造商采用易拉 罐、HDPE和玻璃 瓶包装其各式各样的产品。这次，欢乐家 首次从HDPE包装转向采用聚酯瓶包装椰奶。 成功地从HDPE转向PET包装 两年前，由于聚酯包装材料以及工业化包装生产线自身 的许多优点，欢乐家决定推出聚酯瓶包装的椰奶。聚酯瓶坚 固、不易破损、轻量、透明、安全，最为重要的是100%可回 收再生。由于瓶颈和瓶盖之间的气密性非常可靠， 聚酯瓶能 够保证椰奶有12个月的保质期而无需在压盖前加封任何杀菌 铝箔。同样，聚酯瓶提高了整体的品牌形象和提升了整体的 客户体验。所有这些都是通过包装生产设备来实现的，厂家 通过降低能源消耗和原料费用，可以获得更高的生产效率及 降低生产成本。考虑到这些好处，他们开始寻找能够提供全 套无菌聚酯瓶生产线的可靠的伙伴。 两条全套无菌聚酯生产线Two complete aseptic PET lines 考虑到Sidel在这一领域的传统，这家中国公司选择了两 条全套无菌聚酯瓶生产线，运行速度为 48,000 瓶 /小 时。2018年的四五月份期间两条生产线分别在山东省的临沂 和湖北省的汉川开始生产，两条生产线均配备了Sidel的无菌 联合传感灌装，采用传统的湿法对瓶子去污染以确保饮料的 纯正。生产线同时还配备了Gebo Cermex 输送装置和自动化 的Pal-Kombi码垛机。可以采用EIT®（效率改进工具）系统 对整条生产线的效率进行跟踪和优化。 能够实现效率提升， 并让组织内的任何等级的员工实时获取相应的有助于采取行 动的信息，包括性能、质量、损耗以及其它与生产相关的问 题。 Huanlejia, well-known as a Chinese producer of food and beverages, recently started producing its coconut milk – formerly packaged in HDPE – in PET bottles. Its main objectives in this change were to reinforce its brand image and increase production speed. The company relied on Sidel’s 40-year exper- tise in aseptic packaging to make this happen. The new coconut milk PET bottle, already awarded by local consumers, is produced on two Sidel complete aseptic PET packaging lines, running at 48,000 bottles per hour (bph). I n the context of generally healthier consumer attitudes, the sales of 100% fruit juice, bottled water and herbal drinks are strongly increasing, at the expense of added sugar juice drinks. A case in point for this trend is the new Huanlejia PET packaged coconut milk, a plant-based alternative to dairy drinks, sold across the Chinese market. Previously, the Chinese food and beverage manufacturer was packaging its large product portfo- lio in cans, HDPE and glass. This is the first time that Huanlejia moved to PET bottles for the promotion of its coconut milk, for- merly packaged in HDPE. Successful shift from HDPE to aseptic PET packaging Two years ago, Huanlejia decided to launch its coconut milk in PET bottles due to the many advantages offered by the packag- ing material itself as well the industrial packaging line. PET is strong, unbreakable, light, transparent, safe, and above all 100% recycable. The PET bottle ensures the coconut milk 12- month shelf life without any sterilised aluminium foil before capping because the tightness between the bottle neck and the cap is very safe. As such, PET bottles typically deliver a greater brand image and enhance the overall customer experience; all of that by leveraging packaging production equipment, able to generate a higher output rate and lower production costs by reducing the energy and raw material costs. With these bene- fits in mind, they were looking for a reliable partner that could offer complete aseptic PET lines. Two complete aseptic PET lines Acknowledging the heritage that Sidel has in the field, the Chinese company opted for two aseptic PET complete lines running at 48,000 bph. Both lines – which started production in Linyi, Shandong province, and Hanchuan, Hubei province, between March and April 2018 – are equipped with the Sidel Aseptic Combi Sensofill, applying traditional wet bottle decon- tamination to ensure beverage integrity. They also include Gebo Cermex conveyors and automatic Pal-Kombi palletisers. The entire lines’ efficiency will be tracked and optimised with the EIT ® (Efficiency Improvement Tool) system. It allows im- proved productivity and gives employees at all levels of the or- ganisation real-time access to relevant and actionable informa- tion on performance, quality, efficiency, losses, and other pro- duction-related issues.
