RUF systems help MULTIVAC to streamline its chip handling processes and to recover coolants

A leading provider of packaging and processing solutions, MULTIVAC enjoys enhanced production efficiency and sustainability thanks to RUF briquetting systems.

In the process, virtually all of the entrapped coolant is extracted and reintroduced to the production cycle. This simplifies the chip handling logistics, cuts coolant costs, and increases earnings from aluminium chip sales.
