Last year, LITA celebrated 50 years of activity and this important anniversary is evidence of the company’s efficiency and ability in satisfying the changing requirements of its customers during this period.

Excellent performance, accurate design and high reliability characterise LITA machinery, providing an excellent guarantee for anyone considering making an important investment. The engineering is entirely developed by CAD in 3D environment and is constantly refined so as to continually improve the product, always paying greatest attention to remaining cost competitive.

LITA machinery is used in many sectors, such as food and beverage, chemical, cosmetic and pharmaceutical. The company produces models for both low and high production speeds. LITA installations can be found worldwide in the premises of internationally renowned companies, although Europe, especially theUKandFrance, is still the major market where 80% of LITA’s turnover is generated.

For example, world leader in cosmetics and personal care products, CJSC L’Oreal has increased its production in its new Russian factory. The company has invested in 5 high-speed lines and for this important investment, L’Oreal has again trusted in LITA, which is included in their preferred suppliers list.

LITA supplied five high-speed Cartesian-axis JOLLY palletizing  robots equipped with digital servo drives and brushless motors, capable of performing 12 cycles per minute. The mechanical parts are entirely made with aluminium, which make the system very agile, fast and accurate. The machine guarantees production up to 40 boxes/minute.

In terms of innovation, LITA has always demonstrated its commitment to searching for the optimum solution to meet customers’ specific requirements as evidenced by a palletising system for bags of pasta into pallet-box which was recently installed at Pasta Berruto SpA, near Turin. It has been especially designed to handle 5kg bags of pasta, mainly for the catering sector, with production capacity of 25 bags/minute by means of an articulated robot. In order to put the packages inside the container at the requested rate a special gripper has been designed to handle two overlaid bags per cycle.
