Asia CanTech 2011 Participation

Aluminium cans are the preferred container solution for soft drinks due to the easy storage, full protection from light, total recycling process and commodity for the users. The high manufacturing speed, the many single steps of shaping, painting, control and more rely on latest technologies. Pneumofore UV pumps fit this application thanks to large centralized vacuum system requirements. The continuous operation with rare stops for maintenance make this one of the key industries for big UV pumps installations. Although popular in Europe, the air cooled UV pumps are not yet installed frequently in Asian can factories. That's why Pneumofore participates to the Asia CanTech technical conference, from 17 to 19 October in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. The evident advantages of rotary vane pumps are the increased vacuum level, the reduced electrical power, the complete air cooling and ready-to-use feature when compared to liquid ring pumps which require cooling water piping, cooling water treatment and cooling water tower. When replacing liquid ring pumps with the Pneumofore UV pumps, the power savings are so important that the Return of Investment results in 12 months, depending on the specific case.
