SACMI specialises in providing complete technologies for every stage of preform and cap production. This is SACMI's calling card at Fispal 2023, the international food & beverage technology fair on the agenda in São Paulo, Brazil (São Paulo Expo) from 27 to 30 June.
A unique partner
SACMI is a one-stop solution to turn your product idea into a complete project: from concept to realisation, throughout the entire project life cycle.
The SACMI Rigid Packaging Laboratory offers a full range of services related to the design of capsule-neck systems in accordance with the most advanced market standards as well as in order to maximise profitability and sustainability.
Winning technology
With its CCM (Continuous Compression Moulding) compression presses, SACMI leads the world market in plastic cap production.
For the production of PET preforms, SACMI has developed a complete range of IPS (Injection Preform System) injection moulding machines, installing more than 150 machines in less than 10 years in Brazil and Mexico alone.
There are many new products on the market that SACMI offers its customers visiting Fispal. These include advanced controls (dose insertion, mould thermoregulation, etc.) that facilitate machine operation, prevent errors, and increase durability as well as reliability over time.
CM-Flow, SACMI Smart Care
On its new-generation CCM presses, SACMI offers the new CM-Flow extruder, which allows increased output quality with reduced consumption and footprint.
CM-Flow has a screw diameter of just 35 mm, capable of delivering the same amount of molten material as a conventional 75 mm diameter extruder: 200 kg/hour. In addition, the Smart Care service, a continuous, in-depth, medium/long-term health check on machines, is available on the latest generation of CCMs. Utilising artificial intelligence algorithms for in-cloud data analysis, Smart Care aims to “quantify” the value of information, generating dedicated KPIs on relevant parameters for anticipating and predicting interventions required to maintain production in optimal conditions.
New IPS 300 + total quality control (PVS 156)
Expanded over the years, the range of IPS preform presses has recently been enriched with the IPS 300. This is a solution distinguished by high performance, great reliability and flexibility. IPS also offers the possibility - unique on the market - to integrate quality control directly into the machine.
Compared to a traditional manual control, with the PVS 156 system directly integrated in the press, sample control is fast, constant and accurate:
Fast, because it checks 96 preforms in less than 5 minutes
Constant, because the PVS does not suffer from the fatigue and approximation of manual control
Accurate, because in addition to providing a detailed inspection and measurement report, it relates these results to the number of mould cavities.
New neck-cap standard, tethered-friendly wide range solutions
SACMI leads the market toward new, more weight-optimised neck-capsule standards, which are recognised as suitable by leading international brand owners.
In addition, SACMI offers the market's most comprehensive range of tethered-compatible solutions, along with post-processing band-cutting technologies that facilitate the retrofitting of existing production lines.
To complete the offer, solutions for assembly of complex caps are available to meet any production requirement, e.g. in sport caps.
Complete bottling lines
SACMI's Beverage BU is your complete partner to go from product idea to filled, capped, and labelled bottle. How? Building on its established leadership in cap lines, SACMI has developed a complete range of solutions for container blowing, filling, and labelling.
One of the opportunities for customers who choose SACMI Beverage's complete solutions is to take advantage of the new Packaging Center service. This offers a complete consulting service on the development of the most appropriate capsules and containers for the accomplishment of your investment plans, the renewal of your production, or the launch of a new product.
