Milchhof Sterzing – a traditional dairy in South Tyrol

The Milchhof Sterzing cooperative is one of the oldest and most tradition-steeped dairies in South Tyrol. To this day, the cooperative enjoys national and international success in yogurt production, its main area of business. The South Tyrolean company focuses on the quality and sustainability of its dairy products, including organic products.

To ensure high product quality and efficiency in production, Sterzing uses aseptic filling machines from VMS and automation solutions from SEW‑EURODRIVE.

VMS Maschinenbau GmbH, headquartered in Obersontheim, near Schwäbisch Hall in Germany, has over 70 employees and is one of the world's technology leaders when it comes to machines and systems for the aseptic filling and packaging of food products.

While customer requirements are constantly increasing, new legal requirements and rapidly changing technology trends are also having an impact. Mechanical engineering companies and manufacturers will have to react even more flexibly to this in the future. The dynamic nature of the industry calls for a high degree of adaptability and a willingness to innovate. SEW‑EURODRIVE carefully monitors these developments and supports its customers during change processes by offering customizable automation solutions.

Milchhof Sterzing is a good example of how important close collaboration is. The company benefits from the cooperation between VMS and SEW‑EURODRIVE. Taking the requirements of the end customer into account from the outset enabled us to provide a fully automated filling system that can be used flexibly in aseptic areas.
