[Case Study] Automatic Packaging and Boxing Equipment for Trout Sushi Special Boxes

A case where automation of the supply engineering achieved improvements in productivity and yield!

We would like to introduce a case of replacing a special box automatic packaging and boxing machine that was delivered to a customer manufacturing trout sushi. In the previous setup, only the packaging and boxing processes were automated, while the supply process was handled manually, presenting a challenge to automate the supply process. Therefore, we proposed a system where an arm controlled by a robot cylinder picks up three workpieces from the conveyor after the banding process and transports them to the supply conveyor of the packaging and boxing machine. After implementation, adjustments such as synchronization were made to achieve stable operation. 【Case Overview】 ■Challenges - The allowable downtime for operation is overnight from evening to the next morning, during which the removal and installation of the equipment must be completed. ■Proposal and Implementation Details - By assembling units that can be pre-assembled before delivery, we shortened the work time. - To ensure that adjustment work does not take much time on-site, thorough adjustments were made before shipment. *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.
