Our client is a world-renowned bakery business making a huge mark over in New Zealand. To keep up with their success across the Tasman, their primary aim was to ramp up production capacity with a completely new manufacturing line.

Jarlam was tasked with designing and building the conveyor systems needed to transport their baked goods through every phase of the process. This meant creating tailored solutions to handle the product during the proofing, icing, drizzling, strewing, cooking, and cooling stages.

The Challenge

  • The project required deep understanding of the unique product handling needs across multiple different processing stages.
  • Our engineers needed to uncover and address several complex operational challenges that had not been raised previously.
  • Each conveyor required highly specific functionality, demanding custom features like dual lane guide rails and inclines.
  • The final equipment design had to simultaneously boost overall manufacturing productivity, increase profitability, and ensure safety.

The Solution

  • We utilised advanced 3D CAD technology, allowing the customer to clearly visualise the complete production layout.
  • By collaborating directly with stakeholders, we quickly developed a fully functional and highly efficient production design.
  • We integrated innovative conveyor technology, engineering custom solutions tailored specifically to the diverse product handling requirements.
  • Our team delivered meticulous stainless steel fabrication, completing rigorous QA and FAT processes prior to despatch.

The Outcome

  • The installation of the new production line successfully increased overall productivity and elevated workplace safety standards.
  • Improved hygiene standards across the facility have significantly minimised the downtime required for maintenance and cleaning.
  • Upgraded automation throughout the manufacturing process has directly resulted in increased production volumes and better quality.
  • Our engineers successfully exceeded customer expectations, paving the way to further broaden our ongoing international relationships.
