Case Studies & Concepts

We love challenges

Not every customer has a product that can be handled with off-the-rack solutions. We try to find the right solution for every challenge with the help of creative ideas and a new perspective simply by thinking outside the box.

Here, we demonstrate a few of the special concepts and solutions in the VSM® packaging machines and special mechanical engineering sector that we have developed for our customers.

VSM®
Special Mechanical Engineering

VSM® Mink2600

innovative packaging of mink

The customer	The furs industry, Denmark
The challenge	Packaging of mink furs for space-saving transportation to Asia and thus the associated reduction in CO₂ emissions per fur.
The solution	The development and design of a concept for innovative portioning and packaging line for the packaging of mink fur units with varying sizes. The developed solution, VSM®Mink2600, has been registered for patent.

VSM® 2000-X

semi-automatic solution for different product sizes

packaging and evacuating cheese batches in different size

The customer	The cheese-making industry, Spain & Eastern Europe
The challenge	The cheese batches are not large enough for a fully automatic solution, but a partial automation is sensible and desired. The size of the products to be packaged varies considerably.
The solution	Development of the VSM®2000-X with manually or pneumatically supported bagging of fully automatic evacuation and welding.

VSM®3010/4010-R

fully automatic solution for different product sizes

different product sizes cheese packaging

The customer	The cheese-making industry, Norway
The challenge	Packaging of three different cheese sizes: 20 kg, 10 kg and 5 kg large blocks are to be packed in different batches using a single machine.
The solution	Adaptation of the system and the development of a quick adjustment tool that enables the machine to be quickly adapted to the appropriate cheese size for the batch, based on machine type VSM®3005.

Semi-Automatic VSM®3000

Packaging of cheese in slim roll-format

The customer	The cheese-making industry, Poland & Estonia
The challenge	Packaging of cheese in a very slim and long format (“salami cheese”) with extra-long and narrow bags.
The solution	Modification and adaptation of the vacuum packaging system for very long and at the same time, very slim product units.

VSM® Bulky XL

VSM® Bulky goes XL: evacuation of onion barrels

The customer	The food industry
The challenge	Evacuation of onions in brine, filled bags in barrels. Evacuation sealing from above.
The solution	Modification of the VSM® Bulky for the efficient evacuation and reliable welding despite the high level of moisture in the container.
