PlastIndia 2023: Brückner to showcase solutions to increase sustainability

With the target to strengthen the local presence in the core market of India, a brand-new clip and chain refurbishment workshop was inaugurated in Mumbai. Equipped with state-of-the-art tools and certified according to strict OEM standards, it ensures the highest quality refurbishment for all different types of sliding as well as roller chains. The expertise of Brückner Servtec combined with a variety of additional options, such as free part inspection or rental models for clip and chain parts minimise downtime end and ensure a long, reliable operation of any film stretching line.

The entire Brückner ONE system is unique in the BO industry. It facilitates spare parts management, service, and communication with globally available online modules and the highest data security certified by TÜV Nord. New modules and features will be showcased at PlastIndia, such as the automatic language switching of the service module. A new online AI routine automatically translates all input into the user's preferred language. Currently, more than 20 languages are supported in addition to English, Chinese, Japanese, Spanish, or Portuguese.

The new line transformation packages to be presented at PlastIndia are designed for the conversion of existing film stretching lines to the sustainable production of recyclable mono-material film types, such as BOPP, BOPLA, or BOPE:
