The Challenge

Optima needed to help its customers address market demand for more flexible and agile packaging solutions, as mechanical adjustment-heavy changeovers limited format flexibility.

The Solution

Allen-Bradley ControlLogix PAC with iTRAK Intelligent Track System enabling format-independent processing without mechanical adjustments for different product formats.

Results

Changeover times reduced by up to 50%. Increased OEE. Higher throughput and reduced bottlenecks. Increased flexibility for format and product variation. Less operator interaction.

Key Takeaways

Independent cart technology enables packaging OEMs to deliver machines with 50% faster changeovers by eliminating mechanical adjustments for format changes, a key competitive requirement for CPG customers with many SKUs.
