Food Industry 4.0: The Integration of Automation in Packaging
You may not know Arnold Automation, but you should. It’s a division of Arnold Packaging, founded in Baltimore in 1933…
But there’s nothing old-fashioned about the technology Arnold Automation unleashes – particularly when it comes to the food and beverage industry.
Automated Packaging Solutions for the Food and Beverage Industry
Here’s a recent factory acceptance test for an end-of-line food packaging solution conducted by Arnold Automation engineers. The packaging? Jelly cups.
But that’s only the beginning…
Arnold Automation technologies streamline various processes involved in packaging…
Here are just a few ways automation contributes to packaging efficiency in the food and beverage sector:
- High-speed Packaging Lines: Automated packaging systems can operate at much higher speeds than manual processes, allowing for faster and more efficient packaging of products.
- Precision and Accuracy: End-of-line automation ensures precise and consistent packaging, reducing errors and minimizing waste. This is particularly crucial in the food and beverage industry where accurate portion control is essential.
- Reduced Labor Costs: Automation reduces the reliance on manual labor, allowing for upskilling of your team.
- Customization and Flexibility: Automated packaging systems can be programmed for various packaging formats and sizes, providing flexibility to adapt to different product requirements without the need for extensive manual adjustments.
- Integration with Supply Chain Systems: Automated packaging lines can be integrated with your existing systems, such as inventory management and order processing.
- Quality Control: End-of-line automation allows for the incorporation of quality control measures like vision systems and sensors, to detect defects or inconsistencies in packaging.
