Drinking Culture: Tradition and Individuality

Bottled beverages have been part ofthe world’s cultural history for centuries.Today, consumers can choose from anoverwhelming assortment of brands.But, what counts in the end isindividual taste. Each beverage takesits place based on patterns ofconsumption and its ability to satisfyindividual needs: thirst, energy,entertainment or pure pleasure.

Soft drinks, fruit juices, mineral or tablewaters, beers, champagnes, wines,liquors: customer preferences changefaster and faster. The need to reactquickly to changing market conditionsand competition is growing. ABBhas taken a new look at how manu-facturing, supply chain managementand business processes interact inregulated industries.

Our team understands the needs ofthe beverage industry because of ourlong-term partnerships with worldwidemanufacturers of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. We can drawon more than one-hundred years ofexperience with manufacturers of retail-ready, packaged, consumer brand-named products, as well as companiesthat grow and convert raw materialsinto ingredients and beverages.

The result? A tailored offering ofproducts, applications and services thatsupport the delivery of an outstandingvariety of beverage products that areconstantly transferring and evolving.

Just as individual as the consumer’schoice is the individual attention wedevote to our customer partnerships.

Fit for the future

Tough competition, tight margins, pricewars and wavering sales predictions –whoever wants to win in today’sconsumer goods industry needs notonly stamina and flexibility, but acrystal ball to predict future trends.That’s especially true in the beveragebusiness. New concepts, products andtastes are continually being developed(“light,” “energy,” “probiotic”), and allof them are competing for customers.

In addition, the industry is pressuredby strict rules and regulations for foodand beverage production, fluctuatingraw material quality, the demand forincreased productivity and capacity,and the need to cut costs.

In this business environment, it’s goodto have a strong partner. Someone withbroad-based experience and specializedknow-how; someone who keeps trackof all your business processes andactively supports your company withconsulting, planning, products andservices; someone who analyzes andindividually optimizes each step ofyour value added chain; someone whoensures, even on short notice, the bestpossible return on investment.

Our expertise begins at the level ofindividual sensors, touches every aspectof the manufacturing cycle, and thenmoves beyond to complete e-businesssolutions.

When you need better on-line access toreliable data, increased productivity, and theability to trace and track the manufacturingprocess, ABB is your source for controlproducts, systems and technologies.

Our control products and systems offermulti-tasking, multilanguage support,graphical operator interfaces, flexibleconnectivity, fast installation and easydiagnostics and programming. All essentialcomponents are designed with redundancy.If one component fails, the redundant partnerimmediately takes over with no interruptionof your operations. Optionally, ABB safetysystems can be integrated.

Improve productivity, reduce costs

When you need to increase the actual output,speeding up the time-to-market of new softor alcoholic drinks, or new packaging designs,a higher level of automation is required.Traditional and manual manufacturingprocesses can be complemented, or replacedby automation.

Every control product we build delivers:

• Ease of use and maintenance• Scalability and expandability• Seamless integration with existing systems

and package units• Electronic recording and signatures• Integrated batch control and management

Progress happens in real-time

Whenever you need real-time automation,our human machine interface helps youroperators monitor and control themanufacturing or process sequences ...stand-alone, with existing PLCs, or integratedas a distributed control system.

Product and quality information is deployedrapidly and uniformly, so that personnelthroughout your plant view your process andbusiness through the same real-time “window.”Better information means faster decision-making and more control over assets andthe manufactured product.

Relevant information at your fingertips

One click with the right-hand mouse buttonbrings you further information about a signal,a mixing motor or a plant component (in otherwords an object). This information, (theaspect), is connected to the object. ABB’s“aspects” or additional information include:

• Graphic displays with real-time datafrom your process

• Faceplates to operate and control the tags,and I/O points

• Pre-configured trend and group displays• Alarm and event displays• Trend, alarm and event history• Reports

Manufacturing and Process Control: flexibility and re-usability

You control it

For discrete or process automation, IEC 61131-3programmable controllers range from small,compact units to powerful controllers withsizable memory and speed.

The controllers offer the ability to interface tothousands of local or remote I/O points. Theyare communicative by supporting, for example,the IEEE 802.3 (Ethernet), PROFIBUS,FOUNDATION Fieldbus, HART, and severalRS 232C protocols, as well as OPC standards.

Processor units, power supplies, communica-tion modules and process inputs and outputscan be set up for redundancy.

Save costs for wiring

The control unit works with various fieldbustypes. This option allows device access fromthe control room and saves the costs forseparate service bus wiring. A right mouse clickoffers the following device views:

• Online parameterization• Diagnosis• Signal forcing• Electronic registration of changes

(audit trail)

Engineering

Should you require re-usable information –either in the context of a project or aslibrary solutions – you can create objectsand aspects that can be used again andagain. These objects contain elements suchas process control programs, various usergraphics and dialogs, or pre-defined reportsand documents.

Our suite of engineering tools integratesfunctions for offline configuration and onlinecommissioning in just one tool. All data – thefunctional blocks used for the control logicand all variables – are stored in a system-wide,global database.

Manage your assets

Maintenance conditions vary from simplyidentifying status changes in an intelligentdevice or identifying high, low, or deviationlimit conditions in the control system,to identifying abnormal conditions usingadvanced process equipment condition.Asset monitors use real-time plant informationas inputs to:

• Detect maintenance conditionsbefore failure occurs

• Assist in diagnosis of the problem• Automatically offer correction

recommendations• Update the CMMS system

Cheers! Here’s to your recipe!

Is your manufacturing line already equipped,and are you looking for a PC-based batchcontrol package? Do you need a softwarepackage that helps manage and schedulerecipes, supervises the PLC-based execution,and generates batch reports to document allprocess and manufacturing steps? Our batchmanagement software is Windows-based andcan run independently of the controllerhardware.

When you face faster changing consumerdemands for increased product diversity, forexample: new soft drink flavors, new fruit juicemixtures, or new beer designs, we would liketo assist you in introducing new formulas andrecipes with quick and automated solutions.

New delights - new recipes

Our recipe management and batch controlsoftware package is built to ISA S88 and IEC61512 standards. It provides engineering toolsfor recipes and equipment as well as forprocess control. The status of your processand batch operations is easily accessiblethrough integrated batch scheduling, controland reporting.

Integrated batch systems

For PLC or DCS-based batch systems, werecommend taking advantage of the scalabilityof ABB’s automation system and run the batchcontrol package fully integrated with operationand control. Batch redundancy is optional onboth the operation and control levels.

Batch Automation and Management: maximize manufacturing flexibility

Major benefits of our unique integrationconcept include:

• The operator has direct access from thescheduler, or the active batch recipesto the equipment and device control.

• A single engineering tool and databasefor I/Os, devices and tags, batchequipment and units.

• The batch library contains control functionswith the S88 state machine. All states andtransitions can be configured in IEC 61131languages.

• The system alarm and event managementmanages all from I/O, device, process ormanufacturing to batch alarms and events.

• The batch report contains all manufacturingor process actions and events relevant tothe batch execution including operatorinteractions and changes to the recipe.

Regulations

As with all our control equipment and systems,the batch management supports regulatoryrequirements or enforcement policies throughoptions like:

• Security and access control• Re-authorization before critical actions• Electronic signatures and electronic records• Audit trails for operation and configuration• Event, tag, and batch history• Archive and reporting

Current regulations focus on quality andtraceability. Beverage manufactures areasked to trace and archive all relevantproduct data for the complete manufacturingprocess, and be able to retrieve informationmonths or years later:

• What ingredients were used? What wasthe origin of the ingredients, how werethey controlled and identified duringthe manufacturing process?

• What personnel were engaged with themanufacturing process? Responsibilities?

• What were the key product andmanufacturing data for special orders,vintages, batches, lots or campaigns?

All of these are recorded automatically in thatthe Information Manager collects, stores andretrieves historical manufacturing, process orbatch, and business data from ABB or othersystems. Standards such as ODBC, OLE DBand SQL provide access to all real-timeand historical data, regardless of where itresides in the process or business network.

Learn from your history

Integrated with ABB’s automation system,the Information Manager combines theManufacturing Execution or ProductionInformation Management System (MES/PIMS)environment with the control environment.When you need to compare real-time signals

Information Management: track and trace

and status, alarm and events, with historyor previous reports, the relevant history isavailable with a single mouse click.

Whenever you want to repeat your “goldenBatch,” the trend displays create a batch-to-batch comparison that improves both qualityand reproducibility.

Reporting made easy

Regularly scheduled reports, as well as ad hocreports can be generated easily in the formatyou specify. Reports can be created in thefamiliar Microsoft Windows® desktopenvironment using Excel or Crystal ReportsTM.The Information Manager includes add-ins sothat these office packages have access to real-time, historical and production data. Generatedreports can be automatically e-mailed, printed,saved to a file, and archived.

Capture better informationfor better decision making

With manufacturing facilities spanning theworld, managers must be able to analyze andview information from multiple sites. TheInformation Manager presents data in the formof graphical displays, trend displays and webpages so that it is readily accessible from amanager’s desktop or laptop PC regardless oflocation. The production manager can on hisPC have a simple KPI continuously providedto him as a displayed value or a ticker barfrom which he can drill down for moredetailed information should this KPI change.

Robots: handling bottles, boxes, cases and packs with care

Even in the case of small production volumes,you can improve cost effectiveness for productpacking and palletizing. Based on your needs,ABB works with you to develop and engineernew concepts integrating robot technologiesfor your bottling lines. Whether you use emptybottles, full bottles, plain or labeled bottles,special bottles, corrugated paper, plastic orwooden cases, wooden or metallic boxes,shrink-filmed packs: ABB robots provide theflexibility you need.

Put robots into action

Whenever you put our robots to work theykeep your lines running. New packages?New products? Short notice? Your factorycan quickly respond to any change.

Robots or robot-based packaging cells canload all types of cases and support top orside-loading or wrap-around concepts.

High accuracy, low maintenance

Accuracy is a remarkable 0.1 mm. Robots havea sterling record of reliability – 65,000 hoursmean time between failure and 99.8 percentavailability.

Depalletizing

After protective film and metallic strip removal,the robot can unload packs, boxes or emptybottle pallets, in full or partial layers, or handleempty pallet stacking, layer pads and lids.

Boxing and deboxing

Robots can handle product packages andbottles in different positions and carry outloading and unloading of wooden or metalboxes. Bottles can be gripped one-by-one orseveral rows at a time, in half or full layers.The accuracy of the robot allows the use ofsimple grippers and smooth movementseven within the box.

Transfer

Robots count and arrange the cans, packs,or bottles without additional handlingequipment. They can transfer bottles laidhorizontally in a case, in a neck-in-neck outarrangement, into a stirring case in a neck tobottom arrangement, or transfer bottles caseto case for a container change while keepingthe same arrangement.

“Our loose stacking

has received a

positive response

from the shops. It is

easier, and with loose

stacking we limit the

outer packaging.”

Disgorging

After stirring, the robots manage one or severalfreezing tanks. The robot’s tasks include:

• Tank or “bath” in-feed, including deboxing,gripping the bottle bottom.

• Checking freezing time, placing bottles ina tank filled with glycol or brine, removingbottles after a pre-defined time (dependingon wine type and rate).

The robot then lays bottles on the bottleopening in-feed conveyer. This task includesside-clamping of bottles, bottle turning andplacing bottles upright.

Case loading

Robots can pack bottles in cases with heavyweight while demonstrating outstandingreliability – independent of the upright orhorizontal position of the packed bottles.The same work cell can be converted fromhandling horizontal to vertical bottle casingsimply by changing the gripper.

Palletizing

Bottles or packs, as well as corrugated paper,wooden, or plastic cases, can be palletized bya single robot. Speed or patterns can bequickly changed.

Machine feeding

Robots can be used to feedthe various machines withindividual bottles, packs,cartons, cases, blanks, etc.

Competitive advantage

Our robots provide flexiblyand repeatability. They canoperate in clean roomenvironments and washdown areas. Fromunloading to filling, frompicking to packing topalletizing, ABB robotshandle multiple functionsautomatically.

__________Dr. Gustavo Moller-Hergt,Managing DirectorWarsteiner

It’s not enough to produce a good drink:juice, liquor, wine or champagne. It’s justas important to distribute it accurately at thelowest cost and with complete traceability.You need to know where the product went,who received it, how much was shipped, howmuch inventory is left – and how much eachstage in the transaction cost you.

Complete warehouse logistics

ABB’s warehouse management systemoptimizes warehouse logistics and furnishesreal-time information, while managing theworkflow from goods reception throughdispensing and final packaging and on todispatch. Inventory management providesforward and reverse traceability of materials,equipment and personnel. The benefits are:

• Reduced inventory levels

• Productivity increases of 10 to 15 percent

• Better utilization of storage space,accurate and up-to-the-minute quantityand location data

• Better control of priorities, less paperwork(a reduction of 50 to 70 percent frommanual systems)

• Integration with existing planning systems

• An improvement of up to 50 percent in theuse of management resources.

From receiving to shipping

Warehouse control begins at receiving. Ourwarehouse management and control systemscapture and report receipts immediately. Bar

coding identifies each receipt for allsubsequent handling. Our systems managemultiple deep storage locations, multipleracks, multiple floor storage arrangementsand any type of picking including case, bulk,batch and single picking, picking by shipmentand pre-picking.

Warehouse tasks (receipt, put-away, casepicking, counting, etc.) are organized andscheduled to improve the efficiency of bothoperators and equipment. For example,operators are routed to the closest eligiblepickup to reduce non-productive travel times.Empty shelves are automatically replenishedwhen quantities fall below a pre-set minimum.

Throughout manufacturing

Products are automatically tracked fromthe moment the items enter the warehousethroughout the manufacturing cycle by orderof receipt, expiration date, lot number, serialnumber or any special criteria that youdesignate. You’ll know when, where andhow products were received, stored, pickedand shipped.

From forklift control to full automation

Whether you’re looking to manage just a fewforklift trucks or a completely automatedwarehouse, we improve the efficiency of yourexisting warehouse operations. We make surethose benefits begin at the individual devicelevel and reach through your whole facility.
