REQUIREMENTS
- Packing 6 different types of product with a single cartoning machine
- Minimum format changeover times
- Perfect packs
The difficulties posed by this specific product were:
- the significant difference between the smallest format and the biggest one
- the light weight of the small packs
The customer picked Giotto 90M because it guarantees perfect packs even at high production rates; indeed, the products are packed in display boxes that are placed on the shelves in the point of sale, so each pack has to be top quality to reflect the value of the brand.
A “smart” pusher was used to calibrate the force depending on the weight of the jar.
