Handling Hand Sanitizer Bottles

Customer Container Handling Challenge 

A pharmaceutical company, new to packaging products, decided to start manufacturing hand sanitizer in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Morrison and the customer both prioritized creating a streamlined production process for these new manufacturers.

Morrison Solution 

Our engineers determined that a timing screw would be the first component of the solution, especially since the customer had never used one before. To help ensure cost-effectiveness, they also opted for a slave-driven system. This design allowed the customer to integrate our products seamlessly with their existing filling system. The custom slave-driven system fed bottles into the timing screw via backlog, then discharged the empty bottles with consistent spacing, ready for the filling process. By integrating Morrison’s system with the customer’s existing setup, they were able to start manufacturing hand sanitizer as quickly as possible.

Construction 

Morrison’s innovative solution was constructed from stainless steel and raw aluminum. The timing screws were made from food-safe UHMW plastic, providing a durable and lightweight construction solution.

Results

Morrison’s innovative solution solved our customer’s container handling challenge. The system significantly streamlined the customer’s production process, enabling them to start manufacturing hand sanitizer quickly at a time where such a product was very needed. The slave-driven system provided a cost-effective solution that integrated seamlessly with the customer’s existing filling system. The timing screw guaranteed consistent spacing of bottles, optimizing the filling process. This system met the standards of the customer and the industry.
