Careful Automation Overcomes Productivity Problems for New England Company
A Connecticut company recently brought its production problems to Holland Packaging. After a required manual quality check on their products, it was discovered that they were also manually bundling and packing with over half a dozen employees. After upgrading the production line, now packing was the new bottleneck.
The company solution was to add six more people and a larger hand packing station. They were also concerned about continuing production during installation and the impact automation would have on their good and loyal people.
We knew there was a better way!
- Holland Packaging set-up a new Autopack automated shrink wrap machine that could be adjusted to fit each of their products.
- Six employees were repurposed to higher-value duties so that the manual QC could still be accomplished at the new higher throughput
- The installation was completed within a day!
