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.
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
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.
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.
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.
IF YOU HAVE A PRODUCTION CHALLENGE,
WE’D LOVE TO SOLVE IT.
