Ulmerfeld-Hausmening,

world record on its 12-pocket cut-size line, for the most
efficient cut-size line.

highly versatile cut-size line, delivered in 2004 by E.C.H.
Will and Pemco, two companies within the Körber
PaperLink Group, converted 30 reel sets of 80 g/m˛
copy paper within 24 hours.

Due to the rather small order volumes, sometimes
only one Euro pallet (equivalent to 500 kg or 200 reams),
the machine operators performed 21 order changes and 10 packaging
material changes. 
The record-setting equipment consists
of an E.C.H. Will 12-pocket cut-size sheeter type SLK with
six non-stop double unwind stations.

A dual discharge feeds two Pemco high-speed packaging
lines, which are designed to run with laminated paper and
BOPP wrapping material. All Pemco modules – ream wrappers,
ream labelers, case packers and case labellers – are equipped
for non-stop packaging material changes.
The line at Mondi Neusiedler has been running
in a three-shift operation with a maximum of five machine
operators each shift. Thomas Novak, Head of Business Unit
Finishing Department, said: ”In order to set this new record,
all parties concerned have shown great commitment.
They had to operate the entire line and manage
a great logistical challenge in handling reels, labels and
packaging materials for the different orders. With the highly
versatile and efficient cut-size line from E.C.H. Will and
Pemco, we managed to set another extraordinary world record
with a complex order structure within our normal production.”
