Multivac has officially opened its Training & Application Center for Slicing & Automation (TAC) at the company headquarters. The guests included Stephan Thomae, member of the Bundestag; Alex Eder, Chief Executive of the Lower Allgäu Regional District; and Beate Ullrich, Lady Mayor of Wolfertschwenden. After the guests had been greeted by Group Presidents Guido Spix and Christian Traumann, the building was blessed by Father Thomas of the Parish of Bad Grönenbach and Pastor Michael Kolbe of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Woringen. The guests were then guided through the building complex. The ceremony took place in accordance with the current COVID guidelines.
“We can show our machines and processing solutions ‘live in action’ to our customers in the new Application Center,” adds Guido Spix, joint Group President of Multivac. “It has been designed in such a way, that we can exactly reproduce real production conditions in the food industry. The product spectrum ranges from individual slicers to entire lines, covering different output categories, and complete with various loading solutions, packaging machines, labelers, inspection equipment, and box packing systems. Automation solutions from other industrial applications are also available for trial productions. Working with the customer, Multivac can therefore develop the ideal solution as regards feasibility, quality, output, and cost effectiveness.”
