Aenean vulputate eleifend tellus.
Automation goals:
The reasons behind automating the proceses:
- I want to improve product quality and uniformity
- I want to increase capacity
- I want to increase productivity
- I want to reduce the number of employees working on this process
Further explanation:
The project is intended to reduce repetitive manual labour and increase capacity while maintaining correct pack counts, orientation and presentation. The current process requires a minimum of six operators while running at approximately 50% of the new line's capacity. The target is one operator per line after automation. The business expects approximately 20% overall growth next year, and scalability is important. The preferred investment case is an estimated payback period of 18 months or less, subject to the proposed scope and benefits.
Timeframe:
Expected timeframe for the solution to be installed:
I need the automation solution to be installed: Within a year
Further explanation:
Implementation is required as soon as practicable. A major new order for 80 million units is expected to begin in January 2027. Budgetary proposals are also needed to support an upcoming internal budget application before the end of 2026.
