Packaging and Equipment Review

Falling behind on Preventative Maintenance: 

When you’re constantly adapting to new circumstances, everyday maintenance tends to fall by the wayside. But that’s precisely when it is needed most! Failure to regularly clean, lube and exchange worn parts can escalate a minor breakdown to a total catastrophe. Consider boosting your PM plan with performance monitoring technology. By combining line counter data with hands-on technician experience, you’ll get the clearest insight to predict wear and tear issues.

Overspending on Packaging Supplies:

Disposables like stretch film, tape, corrugated and Void fill are called such because they are intended to be used once and thrown away. When you spend more than you need on single-use materials, you are essentially just throwing your money away! This happens when case tapers require more than one pass, when stretch film is so thin that it requires additional wraps, or when your cases are thicker than necessary for your application. Getting the right thickness or tension is a delicate science.  Find out where you could be saving money by having our team review and look for inefficiencies.

Packaging Automation:

Integration doesn’t just mean robots. Advancements in manufacturing technology have steadily been picking up steam over the past few years. The infrastructure is finally available to make Industry technology not only feasible for the average manufacturer, but affordable too. Take a few baby steps into the vast realm of automation by implementing sensor automation with PLC integration to your existing equipment.
