Mechatronic drives for

the brewing industry

2 Reference projects in the food and beverage industry

In 2009, the Peruvian company Lindley Corpora-

tion S. A., official bottler and distributor of Coca

Cola in Peru, began a modernization project for

its production systems. A number of their con-

veyor lines were equipped with the latest tech-

nology, including MOVIGEAR®. This mechatronic

drive system from SEW-EURODRIVE is extremely

energy efficient. During installation, the sig-

nificantly reduced amount of cable material

required proved to be an additional advantage.

The first project was completed in fall 2009. In

the port city Callao, which makes up the Lima

metropolitan region along with Lima, the capital,

Lindley Corporation S. A. built a new produc-

tion hall for a beverage line. The system in Cal-

lao was constructed in just a few weeks. Fifty-

three units of the MOVIGEAR® SNI mechatronic

drive system with six MOVIFIT® SNI decentral-

ized drive control units were installed on the

glass line in order to transport crates. The elec-

trical wiring and commissioning of the drives

was completed in less than a week. Accord-

ing to information from the OEM, around 60%

less cabling was required for the installation

compared to the classic solution with frequency

inverter control cabinets.

Within this project, SEW-EURODRIVE drives were

also used in the dry area: from depalletizing

empty crates to unpacking and repacking all the

way to palletizing the filled crates. Throughout

this process, filled crates with twelve one-liter

glass bottles are being transported. This sys-

tem was the first MOVIGEAR® project in South

America.

Fewer Cables – Increased Efficiency:

System Modernization in the Beverage Industry1

“The first project in our plant in Callao clearly demonstrated that we had made a very

smart investment. Along with saving energy, which was our main motivation for this

project, the reliable MOVIGEAR® technology also allowed for simple installation, easier

and less expensive cabling, and a reduced number of control cabinets. We now under-

stand that this is a profitable way to invest in our company while achieving our envi-

ronmental goals.” Augusto Rey, Corporate Manager, Lindley Corporation S. A.

In order to increase efficiency, Kühne, the Ger-

man food producer, modernized its packaging

system in cooperation with the system designer

Goutherm. For this project, SEW-EURODRIVE

provided a complete motion control solution as

well as energy-efficient and dynamic drives with

a hygienic design: gearmotors, servomotors,

and servo inverters. Drive configuration with the

MOVIFIT® FDC field device controller significantly

simplified system startup.

One MOVIFIT® FDC drive controller designed

to function as a configurable control unit (CCU)

is used to control up to ten MOVIGEAR® drive

units, making the drive system extremely user-

friendly. At the same time, this solution sim-

plifies the startup of complex motion control

applications because it eliminates the program-

ming work that would be required for numerous

standard applications; only the CCU has to be

configured. In addition, the MOVIGEAR® unit

frequently saves up to 50% on energy when

compared with a standard gearmotor.

For layering and palletizing processes, the com-

plete solution from SEW-EURODRIVE with the

IEC 61131-compatible MOVI-PLC® motion and

logic controller facilitates the use of motion pro-

files optimized for time and jerking. This helps

to ensure maximum system performance and

careful handling of the product. An additional

benefit of this complete solution is on-the-fly

pick-up and placement, a method which reduces

the total cycle time needed to reposition the

glass containers. Because it is possible to set

the motion control parameters graphically in the

engineering phase of the project, on-site startup

time can be dramatically reduced.

Clean Transport and Precise Packaging:

Efficient Transport Solutions for Flexible Packaging Technology 2

“SEW-EURODRIVE combines strong customer orientation and a

high level of service. That greatly influenced our decision when

we chose our system provider,” says Manfred Holtmanns, Technical

Director of the Kühne Plant in Straelen, Germany.

Unpacking, Sorting, Packing:

Automation Solutions for Beer Production

Using automation technology from SEW-

EURODRIVE, the Lübz brewery was able to imple-

ment a fully automated sorting plant with a new

concept that is homogeneous on the control and

hardware end.

Portal robots guide mixed bottles into the plant

for depalletizing. Two CMP100 servomotors from

SEW-EURODRIVE are responsible for moving the

X and Y axes. The servomotors are controlled by a

MOVIAXIS® servo inverter. The robot is equipped

with a DOP11B mobile panel so it can be directly

controlled.

The sorting robot sorts bottles onto the six sorting

belts using two moving portals that work in par-

allel. Along with perfect sorting, the portal robot’s

dynamics and precision are what set it apart. Due

to the high degree of utilization of the plant area,

the processes were designed to be highly effi-

cient and require very little space. The two robot

manipulators are moved by two CMP100 servo-

motors – one for the vertical axis and one for

the horizontal axis. MOVI-PLC® with the “Sorter”

software module is also used to control the robot

as part of a comprehensive control concept. This

sorting robot is also equipped with a DOP panel

from SEW-EURODRIVE.

The packer places the bottles into the appropri-

ate cases. Both packing robots can be moved in

three directions; for this reason, three CMP100

servomotors are used for each robot. The units

are controlled using MOVIAXIS® with integrated

MOVI-PLC® with the “Packer” software module.

Thanks to the comprehensive concept, SEW-

EURODRIVE was able to greatly reduce the area

required for control cabinets, relieve the strain

on the higher-level system controllers, and use

the limited space in the plant in the most optimal

way.

The plant is running smoothly and the Lübz brewery is plan-

ning to equip additional plants with the new, fully automatic

sorting system.

From Motivation to Innovation:

Mechatronic Drive Systems for the Brewing Industry4At SEW-EURODRIVE, you can find a wide range

of innovative drive solutions and market-ori-

ented products for all transport and packaging

applications in the food and beverage industry.

Standard AC motors from the DR modular

system are available in all efficiency classes –

up to IE4. Save energy, reduce costs, increase

efficiency: SEW-EURODRIVE’s MOVIGEAR®

mechatronic drive systems and the DRC

electronic motor are two particularly energy-

efficient solutions in efficiency class IE4 for use

in all materials handling applications.

Energy savings of up to 50% can be achieved

and operating costs in bottling plants can be

sustainably reduced. Low noise emissions are

an additional advantage of mechatronic drive

systems.

The single line network installation (SNI) mini-

mizes the time and costs for installation and

commissioning for conversion and moderniza-

tion projects. Thanks to the mechatronic drive

units with integrated frequency inverters, the

amount of space required for control cabinets

can be reduced to a minimum.

The mechatronic drive units from SEW-

EURODRIVE are designed to fulfill all require-

ments for use in hygienically sensitive areas.

This includes food-safe gear lubrication as

well as a stainless steel shaft. MOVIGEAR® is

equipped with a special durable and FDA-com-

pliant HP200 surface with anti-adhesive prop-

erties as standard for use in wet areas such as

bottling plants in the beverage industry. This

means that the customer receives a hygienic

high level drive that will not experience paint

chipping at the housing joints.

As part of the renovation of the transport systems in the

bottling plant, mechatronic drive systems from SEW-

EURODRIVE are playing a large role in reducing the overall

energy consumption. The systematic development and the

high level of integration of the components also contribute

to the high degree of reliability.
