Our customer needed a fully integrated system for single-serve coffee pods variety pack creation. The system had to sort, fill, and prepare for final packaging while accommodating different pack patterns within the same line.
Morrison created a fully integrated solution that allowed the coffee pods to be sorted into four lanes and metered with timing screws. As the screws end, the pods are dropped into boxes. Advanced control technology behind the scenes provides adaptability in the packs.
Morrison’s customized HMI allows operators to choose how many containers from each lane will be dropped into the variety pack, providing adaptability and versatility. Sensors confirm the number of containers dropped into each box, allowing for precise fills for quality control. A shaker settles the product below the fold line, fully automating the process of filling variety pack boxes with adaptable pack patterns.
The timing screw drive unit was constructed from Black Anodized Aluminum
Morrison’s solution significantly improved efficiency by automating sorting, filling, and packaging, reducing labor, increasing throughput, and allowing on-the-fly pack adjustments. Precise sensors minimized waste, enhanced product quality, and integrated sorting with packaging, leading to substantial cost savings on equipment and labor.
