Flexible End-Of-Line Lets Molson Coors Mix Formats

摘要

Upon opening a new production plant in British Columbia, Canada, Molson Coors needed an intelligent end-of-line automation solution to package filled glass bottles in a wide variety of paperboard and corrugated case formats and layouts. The challenge was to integrate three individual processes—carton and case erecting, bottle loading, and case sealing—into one seamless system with a consistently high output. "It was very important for us to find a solution that could ensure the flexibility needed to quickly respond to changing market needs and preferences," says Connie Jones, Senior Project Manager, Molson Coors.
