5 April 2023
The countdown to Ligna, the global benchmark event for the woodworking industry, has begun at the Hannover Exhibition Centre. The fair opens its doors on 15 May with more than 1,100 exhibitors from 44 nations attending the event and until 19 May the organisers expect around 75,000 visitors.
With a programme full of appointments, activities and side events, Ligna is the international showcase for innovations involving the entire wood processing chain, from raw material to finished product and delivery. And it is precisely at the end of this value chain, before the logistics stages, that the technologies of Robopac Machinery and Sotemapack designed to ensure an efficient and safe end-of-line come into play.The two Business Units of the Aetna Group will thus be able to show in a 144 square metre stand (Hall 13 - Stand B38) all the potential of their machines and the strength of a Group that has been present in international markets for more than 40 years.
Robopac Machinery, leader in the design and construction of packaging machines with a focus on stretch film or shrink wrapping technologies, is preparing for this event by deploying configurations designed to ensure maximum safety at every stage of handling and optimisation of the entire production flow.The historic Business Unit of the Aetna Group, founded in 1982, features a production output of around 12,000 machines per year, 90% of which is exported to the most important international markets. These are the numbers that make it the reference partner for reliability and technological level.
