The AMOTEK R168 is a fundamentally enhanced machine model that packs a punch: Its live demonstrations delighted visitors to Amotek's stand at the K 2019 trade fair in October. The compact machine impresses with maximum variability. It can also be used to process compostable and recycled materials.

The The plastics market is on the move - In view of the global ecological trend, this is a compelling development. Today, energy and material savings are required for sustainable packaging. The demand and need for information at the Amotek stand was correspondingly high with regard to processing solutions for this. In response, Amotek presented the most streamlined packaging ever with a AMOTEK R168 produced packaging, which demonstrated real material savings live at the trade fair stand. 

In addition to plastic materials, Amotek has also been processing Recycled and compostable materials. This fulfils the requirements of some mainly European manufacturers who are increasingly using bioplastics. 

With the presentation of a visually appealing Mater-Bi packaging for bin liners Amotek once again demonstrated its innovative strength and flexibility. Mater-Bi is now the undisputed leading biodegradable and compostable film packaging material with great potential for further development.

In addition to the tightness of packaging, Amotek also impressed with the new Machine frame design, which is even more compact. The smart control of the machine, which can be carried out in parallel via external devices such as tablets, as well as the optimised human/machine interfaces and teleservice also attracted a lot of attention among the visitors.

At the same time, Amotek was once again able to emphasise the versatility of the AMOTEK R168. Projects for freezer bags, tablecloths, toothbrushes, disposable gloves, small paper hygiene packaging and other products were discussed at the trade fair stand.   

Compared to the previous year, Amotek registered K Trade fair constant visitor numbers with an above-average number of project enquiries. The trade fair thus fully met expectations.
