Becoming a best-in-class supplier for the MENA region. This is the goal of Cama Group at Gulfood Manufacturing 2024. The new Chief Sales Officer for the Middle East and North Africa, Ahmed Mohamed, will be attending the event. On showcase, the IF315 packaging machine.
Cama Group prepares to make a grand entrance at Gulfood Manufacturing 2024. The Italian packaging company – a longtime exhibitor at the Dubai trade show – will occupy a 112-square-meter stand this year, where the IF315 packaging machine will be showcased in a demo mode for the very first time. But it doesn’t end up here: from November 5 to 7, visitors will be guided through Cama’s latest technologies by Alessandro Bernini, Area Manager for the Indian market, and Lorenzo Birro, Key Account Manager for bakery & confectionery. Joining them, in his first official appearance in the role, will be Ahmed Mohammed, Cama’s new Chief Sales Officer for the Middle East.
The goal is clear: to become a strategic supplier of packaging technologies for the region’s food industry and also to showcase the key advantage of our offering; the ability to provide fully customizable, turn-key production systems, from processing operations to palletizing.
In the Middle East and North Africa, we have several installations, primarily in the bakery & confectionery sector. The IF 315 packaging machine, specifically designed for this segment, is a monobloc unit consisting of a single compact island. The monobloc integrates multiple functions into a single frame, making it an extremely compact and versatile machine. It is capable of forming boxes, which are then loaded by two in-house delta-type robots, sealed, and sent to the next production stage.
The machine, which will be showcased in a demo mode at the Dubai exhibition, can process up to 40 boxes per minute with a maximum input of 400 products. It is equipped with Cama’s most advanced BTG (BreakThrough) Generation engineering and, thanks to its quick format change capability, can adapt to a variety of product types: from bakery and confectionery to coffee, as well as other food and non-food sectors. This machine will allow visitors at Gulfood Manufacturing to experience firsthand what Cama’s top technology can offer and to personally test our quality, with the on-site support of three highly qualified Cama experts. Launched in 2017, Cama’s BT Generation is now in its second release, featuring a refined design and even more efficient robotics. Additionally, augmented reality packages have become “a company’s signature. Over the years, we’ve worked on fully digitizing all aspects that contribute to efficiency and productivity, from format changes to maintenance operations. These functions have been integrated into a tablet that serves as a user interface, which we will also be pleased to showcase at the Dubai exhibition
Among future business developments is the idea of creating a branch company exclusively to providing integrated lines, with dedicated purchasing and management logics. One of the latest solutions presented in this regard is the MTL Monoblock: a true revolution in adaptive production, made possible through a partnership with B&R, an expert in industrial automation and mechatronics. The MTL Monoblock is capable of handling 2,000 products per minute. This is thanks to the innovative ACOPOStrak track system with independent magnetic shuttles developed with B&R, which allows maximum flexibility in managing different kinds of packaging containing up to three different types of products.The machine, built for a major client in the United States, will be on display at Pack Expo, in Chicago from November 3 to 6 at the Cama Group stand.
