Metrisoft Mérleggyártó Kft. and Gergely Fodor and Ferenc Peták received this year’s Southern Great Plain Innovation Award. The recognition of the Szeged Academic Committee, founded in 2010 together with the three chambers of commerce and industry of the region, was presented on Wednesday at the opening event of the Hungarian Science Festival in the Southern Great Plain.

Hódmezővásárhely-based Metrisoft Mérleggyártó Kft., awarded in the business company category, has developed an automatic bagging and palletizing system. The modular equipment for industrial use can be designed according to user needs and infrastructural conditions.

The machine can be used for filling, sealing and sometimes labeling empty bags. Flour-like materials, powders, cereals, granules and pellet-like materials can be filled into the bags with the equipment.

The robot arm connected to the machine and equipped with unique accessories is able to sort the bags onto pallets.

The innovation award in the natural person category went to Gergely Fodor, assistant professor of the Institute of Medical Physics and Medical Informatics of the University of Szeged (SZTE), and Ferenc Peták, professor of the institute, for the design of unique air flow meters made with 3D printing.

With 3D printed airflow meters tailored to the individual characteristics of patients, the load on vulnerable patients – especially infants and the elderly – can be minimized during respiratory examinations.
