Nestle NZ came to us in late 2017 with a pure engineering challenge. When filled with Maggi Mix, soups and gravy powder their large injection moulded polypropylene food service tubs were becoming slightly misshapen. This was preventing the lids from snaping on perfectly. Add to this a need for significantly higher speeds and an old pneumatic machine which couldn’t be adapted, and it was clear that things had to change.
First, we designed a rigid lid applicator which straightened up the plastic sides of the tubs. Then we introduced a 3-servo motor pluck and lid system for greater repeatability, and which could cope with size changes in less than 5 minutes via an HMI setting.
To improve the line efficiency, we created in a ’non-lid’ and reject system.
We have found RML to be a professional automation solutions provider dedicated to developing, building and maintaining our sophisticated equipment. Their open and honest approach has resulted in very positive outcomes for us.
From the first day we sat down with the RML team, through to today, we’ve been so impressed by the level of service and quality of machinery that they have built for us.
We set RML a challenge, design and build a new butter packing machine for a challenging application. RML produced a smart and effective solution that exceeded our expectations.
The design process went very smoothly, start up and commissioning went better than we anticipated. We have found the RML team to be professional, proactive and very responsive to questions and quick to resolve any problems for us.
Of all of the types of packers that we have on site (past and present) the RML packers have proven to be the most reliable, and easiest to maintain.
Ongoing service and support is important to us. RML knew this and I am pleased to say we are not disappointed. I have and will continue to recommend RML to others in our industry based on our experience
RML worked with us to understand our requirements and designed a solution to suit our needs. RML delivered an automated system to service two moulding machines producing the Gallagher Ring Top Posts.
Our integrated, advanced operation ensures the best quality cream cheese is produced consistently.
The background of RML and their ability to automate our process ticked all the boxes
IF YOU HAVE A PRODUCTION CHALLENGE,
WE’D LOVE TO SOLVE IT.
