Understanding Your Current Packaging Bottlenecks
Before you even think about new conveyors, take a hard look at your existing packaging process. Where are the slowdowns? Is it at the palletizing station? Are products piling up before the labeling machine? Pinpointing the precise areas of congestion is critical. This involves carefully observing the flow of goods, perhaps even timing different stages of the process. Consider using flowcharts or diagrams to visually represent the current system and identify the choke points. This thorough assessment will guide your decisions regarding which type of conveyor system will best address your specific needs.
