Questions and Answers / Q & A:
Below you will find our answers to frequently asked questions:
What is the typical service life of AMS machines?
Our machines have a high safety and quality standard. The service life of an
AMS machine depends on proper handling and compliance with the maintenance and lubrication intervals.
Our first swing stopper closing machine with no. 1 / built in 1995 has already
changed hands for the fourth time and is still running without any problems.
How long are original spare parts for AMS machines available?
We try to have enough original spare and wear parts in stock for all new
machine generations. However, we try to keep all AMS machines alive with suitable parts.
Are AMS machines built according to a hygiene concept?
We always value the best possible implementation of a hygiene concept on our
machines. Systems that are located in the wet section of a filling system and from a machine size of BV8 -
6000 have a rounded, electropolished table. With this we guarantee an immediate drainage of liquids. In
addition, all of our plastic parts are made in natural white. This makes it easier to identify soiling or
signs of use.
Which PLC is used in the AMS machines?
We have been relying on the Austrian PLC manufacturer B&R since 2009. We also
purchase the servomotors, frequency converters and the safety technology from this manufacturer. Thus, the
complete drive and safety technology comes from a single source.
Where can AMS machines of this type be viewed?
We are proud that our machines are in use all over the world. You are welcome
