Automated Box-Fill Station Saves Time and Labor
Hold on, three people didn’t lose their jobs here. This automatic box-fill station simply took over the tedious job of counting and organizing piece parts while loading shipping boxes. It’s doing the work of those three people, who are now free to do more challenging projects during the work shift. This box fill-station is one of several on the plant floor. Each day, this company produces plastic injection molded parts in the thousands, so it’s a huge savings of time and labor.
Each station handles seven boxes which are filled by overhead robotics. Four Mini-Mover LP Series conveyors manage the box speed and transport through the station.
