Vibratory size grader adds efficiencies for Jamieson Laboratories

摘要

Windsor, Ontario, Canada-based Jamieson Laboratories refers to itself as Canada's oldest and largest manufacturer and distributor of natural vitamins, minerals, concentrated food supplements, and herbs. To help the company provide the highest level of quality, purity, and safety, Jamieson recently installed an lmpulse®/P high-capacity vibratory size grader from Symetix . The Impulse/P automates the removal of broken tablets and fragments just before packaging to improve product quality while reducing labor costs. "Prior to Impulse/P, we were manually sorting tablets for breakage. We searched for an automated solution that would improve product quality and alleviate unnecessary labor at the same time," says Andy Holwell, Jamieson's director of operations. "What used to take a week to manually sort on an inspection belt can now be accomplished in an eight-hour shift, including clean up."
