Fonterra required a Side Load Case Packer to automatically collate and load giftpack cartons of milk into a glue erected and closed case for shipping. Due to the tuck-in nature of the cartons, we couldn’t rely on a pick-and-place load option so side load was selected as the preferred load method.
The solution we developed was a Side Load Casepacker with a customised collation to suit the customer’s product. The Side Load Case Packer is the perfect choice of machine when products cannot be lifted via vacuum due to the nature of the products to be loaded.
The Giftpack cartons are laned upstream (as part of the packer infeed) rotated and collated with a servo-controlled star wheel. The collated cartons and gently loaded into the pre-erected case, the case is then indexed, and glue is applied and compressed to create a robust completed case for shipping.
RML have an amazing team of people. They were easy to work with and were happy to assist with any problems we encountered during the design and commissioning process.
We’ve been so impressed by the level of service and quality of machinery that RML have built for us. With such an efficient machine, we’ve had no problem keeping up with production times and demands.
Working with RML on an innovative solution was straightforward. Their in-house expertise in all aspects of the design and build added value to the project delivery process and made some tough challenges easier to overcome.
Our experience working with RML has been positive. We feel we received value for our investment.
The machine provided by RML has to date, resulted in consistent high-quality product for SNPshot Technologies and guaranteed production costs.
We saw a 30% increase in line speed and output as a result of the RML equipment
The trust and reliance that has grown from this project has us achieving numnbers we previously did not think would be possible. We will be searching for opportunities to collaborate with RML in future.
Our integrated, advanced operation ensures the best quality cream cheese is produced consistently.
It was an opportunity to increase the packing line automation, with labour savings offsetting the capital costs.
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.
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.
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
IF YOU HAVE A PRODUCTION CHALLENGE,
WE’D LOVE TO SOLVE IT.
