What’s more, it has a wide range of configuration options to meet practically any requirement. We would encourage visitors to come along to stand B70 at the PPMA Show to find out more about what this and are other products can do.’
In addition to Flexus, Minebea will also have its new weighing module, Novego, which provides an innovative, hygienic and robust solution for weighing containers.

The very latest features to be incorporated in the range, in fact, played a starring role in Sacmi's presentation at the international NPE fair in Orlando, held in May.
