Formed in 1947, the company has grown from a single production facility
in Denmark to now include manufacturing units in Poland, UK and
Sweden, with sales offices in Germany, Norway and Egypt (Middle East).
It also has partnership arrangements for Russia, Asia, Australia and South
Africa.
2012 saw the opening of Trepko Inc. Tampa, Florida, to help ensure that
Trepko is in position to not only support its existing North and Latin
American customer base, but also to continue its impressive sales growth
in the territory. Trepko continues to maintain its position as one of the
leading packaging machinery solutions groups worldwide. For this reason,
the company has recently standardised on automation solutions from
Rockwell Automation.
The company attributes its success to its ability to reflect its customer’s
individual demands and requirements through the development of
high-tech, reliable and easy-to-maintain machine solutions, which cover
all facets of the production line from product supply to palletisations. The
company’s range includes machines that make pre-formed containers,
forming and wrapping machines, secondary packaging for cases and
boxes (including palletising), as well as recently developed equipment for
form, fill and seal (FFS ) machinery for cups and trays.
“Rockwell Automation worked hard to secure the Trepko
account. We understand the importance of working with a
component supplier that is well recognised in the market
place,” said Hansen.
“It is also important on a global stage that the component
suppliers included within the Trepko equipment solutions
have adequate support structures in place and that this
service is available for end users – clearly this is a criteria that
Rockwell Automation more than meets,” said Hansen.
The latest 822 brick wrapping machine from Trepko will produce up to 250 bricks
per minute
Examples include the 9106 Form, Fill & Seal Machine, which
is capable of forming and filling 9,000 cups per hour. The
9106 features a compact design, which utilises the very latest
forming and cutting technology. Together with a unique
hygienic frame design, this machine is the perfect solution
for any producer, large or small.
Trepko also continue to push the development boundaries
with its brick forming range of equipment, the 800 series.
The latest 822 machine can produce up to 250 bricks per
minute and is designed with the most stringent hygienic
requirements in mind, which makes it one of the cleanest
machines in the market place.
All of the equipment has one thing in common, AllenBradley® programmable automation controllers (PACs),
Allen-Bradley PanelView™ HMIs and Allen-Bradley Kinetix®
servo drives and motors.
According to Jesper Bjorn Hansen, Trepko Group CEO:
“We listen to our customer’s demands, that is why we
have heavily invested in development, both in terms of
progressing our mechanical design to improve our machines
capabilities, efficiency performance and hygienic standards,
and also working with an automation partner that can
support us through this process.
