Stretch film packaging solution Pringles bottleneck after the Road – film, packa
Automatic stretch film packaging machine speed up the P & G's Pringles packaging process. 52% of capacity by making packaging contractors Aldelano companies in the United States in the Procter & Gamble plant in Jackson, Tennessee, packing more products.
Production capacity under pressure after the Road
When product demand increases, for most food packaging equipment for production lines are a severe test. If any one device can not keep up, or failure, such problems are likely to directly affect the entire production line, which ultimately affect the number of shipments.
In P & G (Procter & Gamble) is located in Jackson, Tennessee, the Pringles (Pringles ®) plants, selling Pringles packaging can be placed on pallet, and now has begun to increase production pallets for packing more than the after-equipment production capacity. Basically, the existing packaging equipment needs to double to meet growing demand, which will not only mean a significant increase in cost, and the existing factory floor is difficult to accommodate so many devices.
Packaging contractors stepped in In a nearby factory, located in Cincinnati, Ohio, the P & G packaging Pringles packaging contractors Aldelano Packaging (www.aldelano.com) has decided to upgrade the equipment of two new FA-44 Automatic rotating turntable stretch film packaging machine. The packaging equipment is ProMach Inc. (www.promachinc.com), a division of OrionPackagingSystems provided four sets of the previous production system can handle it, this will be a snap. According to the Jackson Aldelano FrenchieSmith plant production manager, said, sum up, the new packaging machine effects and is as good as expected, or even exceeded expectations before, and the increase in production contributed 52% of results, ease of maintenance, replacement stretch film do not have to stop for a long time.
Aldelano it's very special contract packaging is called "home" service, and that by using this method it has achieved throughout the industry leader. Aldelano national business manager NicoleSmith explained: "We serve our customers around there or they build our factory. We have never in over 15 miles away, but always in the customer's existing plant inside. This enable us to become one of those customers in close partnership, rather than merely a supplier. "
Aldelano started since 1991 in P & G's Jackson plant operations, P & G's plant in the workshop within the region to install re-packing, loading tray and stretch packaging production line, and P & G's potato chips production line in close proximity . Aldelano task is will become the Pringles box loaded on the train back to their own shop, then after the Road in their production line using a variety of different ways of repackaging them. Transported over the chips on the entire package can be loaded in the session (five-storey), Aldelano staff will split them into different packages.
Some boxes even opened, and for the re-packaged mixed tastes box, which is equipped with different types of products (for example, six of each flavor). In other cases, Aldelano staff will cut off the top of the box, convert them into 22 and 14 loaded trays installed, this package can quickly be put on the retailer's shelves. Alternatively, a single FCL staff will taste the products arrive loaded with up disk.
Present, re-box packaging is carried out in line, then these boxes will be sent to stretch packaging workshop. In the two production lines, they are different goods are piled into the plate, with fully equipped of 40 × 48 pallets, special half-loading tray (4 boxes high) or a quarter of loading plate (two cases of high ). Above all of these goods have a corrugated lid cover for dust and to avoid damage during transport. After a solid stretch wrap quickly and after they were transferred to the shipping area.
Automation to solve production bottlenecks NicoleSmith explained: "This is a very large operation. Previously, we have 34 production lines rely on our old packaging machine." She said, before packing equipment has reached its production limit, and With the increased production of P & G, Aledlano need to increase capacity. She said: "Before packaging equipment can not meet the increased demand for products, and has become a bottleneck."
, She said, the production line after the channel space is extremely limited, small space makes the two packing machines will replace the existing four new packaging machine into a fantasy idea. Aldelano various suppliers from different stretch film packaging machine was investigated, but Orion's equipment and services provided by dealers TurnkeyPackaging Aldelano eventually won the contract.
With a maximum speed of 16 rev / min, maximum load capacity of 5,000 pounds of turntable, FA-44 of the rotation process is fully automated. The turntable is mounted on a high-performance ring bearing bracket, by a heavy chain and sprocket drive. At the end of each rotation, there is a non-symmetrical film clip, fitted with a roll of film, while a pneumatic electric rod for cutting film. Then, an air brush the tail will be fixed in the film above the cargo on pallets.
TurnkeyPackaging will Aldelano pallet samples sent Orion a factory in Memphis. Aldelano production personnel will soon go there to watch the FA-44 packaging machine packing pallets in the practice of commissioning.
Pallets at P & G Jackson, Tennessee production base in Aldelano plant wrapped in film packaging. In the process of packaging and shipping pallets, by using a new automated packaging machine, it will no longer need to use manual pallet onto the turntable to move from packing down.
Expectations of new aircraft into battle
The system eventually proved able to cope with Aldelano facing production challenges. Aldelano in December 2006 received a set of packaging equipment for sale, in January 2007 two identical packaging machine was sent to the Jackson plant. Help in TurnkeyPackaging start debugging after completion, in April put into production. After re-adjusted after production
