Automation goals:

The reasons behind automating the proceses:

  • I want better data to be able to optimize production
  • I want to improve product quality and uniformity
  • I want to improve working environment

Further explanation:

I feel automation will only do ~80% of the weighing. The existing operator will be up skilled to tend and teach the automated system and also do the small weighments and sticky materials. The real gains comes when the 2nd automated machine is put online and the one operator should be able to tend both of them.
