Our client is a global manufacturer of flour, baking ingredients, and bakery goods. We are proud of our long-term partnership with them, particularly given their expertise in supplying major supermarkets throughout Australasia.

For this specific project, the client required a custom design solution to replace their existing outfeed and bypass conveyors. The objective was to seamlessly integrate an upgraded system into their current production line to completely eliminate product misalignment.

The Challenge

  • The existing production line’s overall functionality was being severely hampered by having four separate product transfers.
  • Operational efficiency was continually compromised due to the inadequate type of belt currently in use.
  • The restrictive radius of the current conveyor system was creating substantial bottlenecks during the manufacturing process.
  • Finding a suitable replacement that perfectly aligned with the existing production line proved highly challenging.

The Solution

  • Our engineering team successfully reduced the total number of product transfers from four down to two.
  • We incorporated a highly effective tilt mechanism, resulting in a versatile and robust hybrid conveyor system.
  • We introduced a brand new custom belt design specifically manufactured to meet exact site production specifications.
  • A concise nose bar was engineered to guarantee seamless integration and perfect alignment within the existing line.

The Outcome

  • The implementation of this custom solution achieved a significant reduction in product misalignment and boosted overall production.
  • As a direct result of our engineering upgrades, the end users have experienced substantially increased daily productivity.
  • The upgraded conveyor system has successfully delivered an overall reduction in both operational downtime and ongoing maintenance.
  • Our easy to clean design requires less downtime for washing, resulting in improved hygiene across the line.
