[Case Study on Problem Solving] Rationalization and Labor-Saving Equipment and Devices (1)

Introducing a case study that achieved labor savings of 30 to 45 minutes per session, four times a day!

At a certain food factory, they faced the challenge of wanting to significantly speed up the time for soaking in water or seasoning liquid compared to traditional manual methods, while also improving production efficiency and reducing labor through the use of a blanching device. To address this, they adopted a motor with a brake for the basket inversion. The stopping position of the basket was made easy to adjust in increments, with a kick plate for the limit switch welded to a slit collar. As a result, work could be performed at a stopping position of the basket that matched the height of the workers, reducing the manufacturing process by one step compared to usual, thereby increasing production efficiency. [Case Study] ■ Problem - Want to significantly speed up the soaking time in water or seasoning liquid compared to traditional manual methods. - Absolutely want to minimize manual labor (aiming for automation). ■ Effect - The time saved per operation reduced from the traditional time of approximately 45 minutes to 30 minutes, achieving labor savings over four operations per day. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
