The Saarbruumlckenbased Company Quothambaquot Is Celebrating Its 75th Anniversary This Year Take A Look Back At Threequarters Of A Century Of Pure Innovation In The Packaging Machinery Sectorsaarbruumlcken November 18 2014 It All Started At Hamba Back In 1939 When Design Engineer Hans Adalbert Muumlller Decided To Set Up A Company To Manufacture Packaging Machinery The Outbreak Of The Second World War Thwarted Muumlller39s Plans To Pursue The Business Idea He Really Wanted To Pursue Instead Muumlller Was Forced To Manufacture Aircraft Components As Soon As The War Was Over However He Started Making Tableting Labeling Dispensing And Gluing Machines For The Pharmaceutical Industry At The Same Time The Company Developed Its First Butter Packaging Machine Which Proved So Successful That Muumlller Decided To Focus Exclusively On Machinery For The Food Industry From Then Onthe Early 1950s Hamba Manufactured Its First Filling Machines Initially For The Production Of Waxed Paper Bags For Disposable Milk Cartons Cup Fillers For Yogurt Conquered The Market Soon Afterwards Hamba Also Started To Produce Quotmilk Production Linesquot For Major Dairies Which Were Capable Of Molding Filling And Sealing 60000 Polyethylene Bottles A Day In One Machining Stepthe Business Flourished And In 1969 Hamba Opened A Second Plant In Neunkirchen In The Saarland Region The Company Shifted Its Entire Production Activities To Neunkirchen While Its Head Office And The Production Facilities For Spare Parts And Subsequent Supply Remained In Wuppertal For The Time Beingaseptic Processing As A Competitive Advantagein The Early 1970s Hamba Then Became One Of The First Providers On The Market To Develop Special Machinery For Sterile Cup Packaging This Was A Pioneering And Successful Development As It Had Previously Been Impossible To Offer Long Shelf Lives For Dairy Products That Were Not Refrigerated As A Result Hamba Made Aseptic Packaging Machinery A Fixed Component Of Its Production Range As Well As The Wetaseptic Process The Company Also Started To Use Uvc Rays For Ultraclean Applications This Meant That The Packaged Goods Could Be Kept For Twice As Long The Ultraviolet Method Of Irradiation Was Used Primarily For Portion Fillers As Well As For Form Fill And Seal Machinery For Tubular Bagsallpurpose Machinery Based On The Modular Principle Rounded Off The Company39s Range Of Products Allowing Individual Filling Stations To Be Put Together On A Stepbystep Basis And In Different Combinations To Meet Specific Requirements Hamba Was Now Able To Supply Its Customers With Complete Packaging Lines In A Whole Range Of Performance Categories For The Filling Of Liquid And Pasty Products The Dosing Quantities Ranged From 100 To 1000 Ccm Cups Could Be Sealed Using Sealing Lids Snaponlids And Inverted Trays The Quotbf 2400quot Cup Filler And The Quotbk 1001010quot Modular System Were The Company39s Best Sellers The Latter Was Able To Fill And Seal 20 150g Cups Per Cycle With An Hourly Output Of 36000 Units Back Then No Other Machine Of This Type Was Able To Offer This Sort Of Performancethe Company39s Founding Father Hans Adalbert Muumlller Passed Away In 1978 With This Son Hans Peter Taking Over At The Helm The Company39s Annual Revenue At That Time Came In At Around Dm 30 Million By Then Hamba Machines Could Be Found In 52 Countries Across The Globe And Produced A Whole Variety Of Products From Milk Yogurt Cream And Butter To Icecream Custard Pudding Jam Mayonnaise And Fruit Juiceinternational Growththe Company Went From Strength To Strength In The Years That Followed In 2000 The Company Sig Replaced The Family Management Team Before The Oystar Group With Nine Worldwide Locations Took The Company Over In 2007 This Move Has Promoted The Company39s International Growth Even Further Today Hamba Machinery Is Used In More Than Sixty Countries Worldwide The Company Which Is Now Based In Saarbruumlcken Specializes In Highperformance Filling And Sealing Machines For Liquid And Pasty Products Packaged In Preformed Plastic Cups Or Cups Made Of Paper And Plastic Composites As Well As Preformed Bottles Made Of Various Different Plasticsby Way Of Example The Thirdlargest Producer Of Yogurt Products In Poland Quotbakoma Spz Ooquot Recently Installed A Quotflexline Fl 88 Caquot The Cup Filling Machine Fills And Seals 38400 Preformed Cups With Dairy Products Every Hour Aseptic Processing Is Still A Decisive Factor The Cups Are Cleaned Using Ionized Air Before Having Any Remaining Particles Removed By Suction They Are Then Sterilized In A Disinfection Process Using H2o2 And Are Dried With Sterile Aircontinuous Innovationanother Highlight Offered By Oystar Hamba Is The Patented Chainless Quotmultiformatquot Transportation System It Boosts System Availability For Preformed Cups By Up To 25 Percent The Automated Format Change Feature Increases The Productive Time Of Flexible Format Machines By Reducing The Setup Time For Format Changes Cell Boards For Example Can Be Changed In The Space Of 15 Minutes This Facilitates The Lucrative Production Of Varying Seasonal And Countryspecific Packaging Formats Using The Cup Filling Systems The Time And Effort Involved In Maintaining The Systems Is Also Reduced For Example Thanks To The Fact That There Is No Need To Replace The Transport Chain Or Carry Out Any Of The Adjustment Work Needed For Chain Stretchthe Packaging Machinery Sector Has Been Subject To Constant Change Over The Past 75 Years Hamba However Has Always
