Flexible case packer becomes intelligent

摘要

During the development phase of their newest line of case packers, machinery maker Edson Packaging, part of the ProMach group, identified fast, error-free part changeover as one of their customers' primary areas of concern. Customers were requiring more size changes per shift and needed to reduce the typical changeover time of 30 minutes or more. In response to this customer requirement, Edson developed its Servo Adjust and InteletueITM systems. According to Jeff Werner, vice president of technology at Edson, "With these technologies, customers are able to reduce their changeover time from 30 minutes down to five while eliminating potential human errors."
