UPCT and Auxiliar Conservera are looking for more sustainable and durable metal food containers (04/08/2020)

| The new chair will boost university-business collaboration in research into new materials, 3D technology and Industry 4.0 | Researchers from the Polytechnic University of Cartagena (UPCT) and the Auxiliar Conservera company, from Molina de Segura, are looking for new solutions for the design and manufacture of metal containers for food that are more sustainable and durable.

The research will be carried out through the new UPCT-AC chair. The Materials Sciences and Metallurgical Engineering research group will carry out these works within the framework of number 50 of the UPCT Chairs Network.

Currently, the collaboration is focused on new materials and thicknesses, 3D technology, Automation and Industry 4.0.The new business chair, led by Ana Eva Jiménez, professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Materials and Manufacturing, will allow collaboration on aspects related to the manufacture of new food packaging solutions and their preservation.

It will also promote comprehensive and sustainable solutions for optimizing Auxiliar Conservera's industrial processes and products.It so happens that the director of the new Chair carried out her end-of-studies work in 2001 in collaboration with Auxiliar Conservera with an R + D + i scholarship.

Ana Eva Jiménez's project focused on easy-open lids, one of the topics that she has continued to develop as a researcher in collaboration with this company, focusing mainly on developing more corrosion-resistant packaging.The Auxiliar Conservera company has been collaborating with the University for almost 20 years, training students in internships, scholarships for students and developing R + D + i projects.

It will also announce prizes for the best end-of-study work related to its business activity.For the regional company, this chair covers a double socially responsible objective.

As a company that is committed to the talent and potential of people, continue to contribute to the development of interns and, on the other hand, continue to investigate improvements and more sustainable solutions for food preservation, guaranteeing the food safety that our customers and consumers need.Auxiliar Conservera is a family business in the metalgraphic industrial sector, with more than 50 years of history, dedicated to the manufacture of metal packaging for food preservation.

It has 5 manufacturing centers in Spain, one in Germany and the other in Chile, with a staff of more than 850 people, being one of the first companies in the sector nationally and internationally.Image of the first working meeting of the chair, which was held last Thursday electronically.
