Cost-Effective Vacuum Technology in Food Packaging

Optimizing the efficiency of vacuum applications can bring significant cost savings, and selection of the right vacuum pumps and components is important but not the only factor determining efficiency. Even the best technology cannot achieve its true potential if it does not interact well with the process. Any selection of vacuum components should therefore always be driven by process requirements. The Busch 5E concept takes into account all of these elements. 5E stands for the five key elements that determine the efficiency of vacuum processes: Design, Heat Recovery, Control, Centralization and Competence.
