Matt Freeman, Managing Director of Moondarra Cheese, had three crucial goals: to create a better-looking, shelf-ready product, to reduce processing costs, and to reduce reliance on human labour in the factory. Over four stages, we made four lines more efficient to increase production, improve quality, and bring savings of over $ 1 million annually. The existing automated case packer was heavy on human labour and simply did not make good boxes nor handle the product gently enough. The result was a medium-quality cardboard outer that was easily dented. Our engineers helped Moondarra redesign their boxes with new perforation lines and the artwork designed around them. We had the foundation machinery and automation technology and then customised it to meet the specific requirements of the cream cheese products. Since then, we have gone on to design and build many more machines for Moondarra to continue to grow their operations and maintain their status as Australia’s largest cream cheese maker.

Oceania Dairy approached RML to automate a manual case packing and palletising process. The previous process included an operator picking and placing 1kg foil pouches of milk powder into an RSC shipping case, and then manually palletising these cases onto a pallet. Within the scope of the challenge, Oceania requested the tracking and trace of all pouches from the filling room into the cases and then onto the pallets, ensuring the traceability of the product throughout the process for quality purposes.
