Created more floor space and cut staff requirement
October 1st 2004

UPM has developed a bespoke conveying solution for a company that produces a variety of different products from 10 machines.

Items are transported from production hall via a conveyor system to the packing area. They are then transferred onto the 360° oval shaped conveyor, where two operators check and pack them into boxes. Faulty product is placed on the low profile conveyor and conveyed to the reclaim area.

The design brief was to supply and install, within budget, a system that would increase floor area and reduce the personnel needed per shift from four to two.
