- Mosca presents two new machines at sales space 351 in corridor 3C
- SoniXs MCB-3 straps as much as 36 corrugated cardboard packages per minute inline
- SoniXs MP-7 provides WebHMI and IoT functionality to MP machine collection

One exhibition, two new machines: At this 12 months’s Fachpack from 23 to 25 September, Mosca GmbH will likely be presenting new strapping options at its sales space 351 in corridor 3C. With the SoniXs MCB-3, the corporate is increasing its inline portfolio with a high-performance answer. The SoniXs MP-7 provides a brand new management system and digitalisation choices to the confirmed MP machine collection.
In step with the exhibition theme of “Transition in Packaging”, the Mosca sales space will give attention to options for digitalisation and sustainability. With the SoniXs MCB-3 and the SoniXs MP-7, the corporate is increasing its strapping portfolio with two machines which can be geared up with the energy-efficient SoniXs ultrasonic unit and are designed for cloud and automation connectivity. Mosca additional illustrates its dedication to the round economic system with a shredder that demonstrates how used strapping may be recycled.
Efficiency and digitalisation for inline strapping
The brand new SoniXs MCB-3 strapping machine, which will likely be launched at Fachpack, is an evolution of the MCB-2 and UATRI-2xt. It units new requirements when it comes to velocity, availability, and future orientation in Mosca’s inline portfolio. It may be geared up with both a easy or a high-speed double pusher system and may strap as much as 36 stacks of packages per minute relying on the configuration. The MCB-3 can now deal with stacks with a peak of as much as 400 mm – a rise of 12.5 %. This enables customers to safe extra merchandise per stack for transport and meets even the very best necessities of the corrugated cardboard {industry}.
The SoniXs MCB-3 is the primary inline machine to be geared up with Mosca’s SoniXs ultrasonic unit by default. This makes the answer extra energy-efficient and will increase its availability. Relying on their necessities, clients can select between one or two strapping items. The double-head design permits them to change to the second unit seamlessly throughout upkeep to minimise downtime. Consumables may be changed on the principle working facet, making changeover processes time-efficient and ergonomic.
Mosca additionally focuses on digitalisation for even larger effectivity and diminished downtime: The SoniXs MCB-3 shops and analyses all machine knowledge in addition to knowledge from upstream and downstream parts across the clock. This allows the SoniXs MCB-3 to determine potential issues at an early stage. If, for instance, the temperature of a part rises drastically, the machine mechanically sends a warning. In future, these proactive messages may even be despatched on to the service division in order that spare components may be ordered or technicians dispatched shortly.
Consumer-friendly WebHMI for cloud connectivity
Knowledge additionally performs an essential position within the SoniXs MP-7. The brand new era of the confirmed MP machine collection stands out from its predecessor, significantly when it comes to operation and IoT functionality. In contrast to the MP-6, the brand new machine doesn’t depend on a circuit board management system, however on a computer-based PLC, enabling the digitalisation and optimisation of operations. Along with the management panel (ECOB), the machine is provided with a user-friendly WebHMI (Internet Human Machine Interface), which offers an summary of performance-related key figures and machine settings.
Like its predecessor, the SoniXs MP-7 is accessible in numerous variations. It comes as a tabletop or as a totally automated belt or curler mannequin. The essential machine within the automated tabletop model is now additionally geared up with new options similar to a sign gentle, strap finish detection, and an interface by default. With as much as 58 strapping operations per minute, the machine is designed for medium to excessive manufacturing necessities in a variety of industries, from corrugated cardboard to logistics.
Give attention to the longer term
With the Saturn S6, Mosca may even showcase a confirmed answer from the stretch wrapping portfolio of its subsidiary Movitec at Fachpack. The ring wrapper can wrap as much as 120 pallets per hour totally mechanically and administer extra cowl movie for cover towards environmental influences. By pre-stretching the movie as much as 300 % (optionally variable as much as 400 %), the Saturn S6 works as resource-efficiently as doable.
The sales space is accomplished by Mosca’s handbook strapping instruments and a extra uncommon addition – a shredder, which will likely be used to boost consciousness of one of many firm’s core initiatives amongst guests. With the “Loop That!” undertaking, Mosca goals to determine a round economic system for strapping materials. On the sales space, the shredder will shred the straps utilized by the hand strapping instruments to allow them to be mechanically recycled and used to fabricate new straps. “Our purpose is to recycle extra than simply our personal supplies. In the long run, we’re striving for industry-wide cooperation and a round economic system that makes strapping much more sustainable,” emphasises Alex Jesser, Product Supervisor Advertising and marketing at Mosca. “It’s no coincidence that each one options we’re exhibiting at Fachpack contribute to sustainability and digitalisation. A forward-looking method is extra essential than ever for the packaging {industry}, particularly in turbulent instances. We’re subsequently trying ahead to listening to the views of exhibition guests on these matters and to be taught what they want on the finish of the packaging line.”
