PC-based control boosts sterile sampling bag production

摘要

Attention to quality standards and flexibility in production are crucial for the aseptic sampling industry. After all, the sampling bags must carry sampling sponges, food items, pharmaceu-ticals or organic matter of all sizes for testing in labs and protect against contamination to ensure consumer safety. Labplas designs, builds and implements leading-edge technologies at its Montreal-area production facility. A tailor-made machine line creates custom products ranging from 3- to 33-in.-wide bags in various material types with few changeovers, rather than only standard sizes of sampling bags and kits. "We continuously improve our systems through automation to achieve even higher throughput for a larger number of products while maintaining our agility," said Benoit Brouillette, general manager for Labplas.
