SNACK PACKAGING
AT PACKAGING, THE GROWING
ADOPTION OF DIGITAL CONTROLS
ENSURE THAT PRODUCT QUALITY ISN'T
DIMINISHED AT THE FINAL STEP.
tion manager, IMA IlaPak, noted the company upgraded
the jaws carriage on its VFFS Vegatronic 6000 to allow
increased production speeds on a variety of pack styles.
Joe Curcio, northeast sales manager of BluePrint
Automation, observed the company continues to replace
pneumatic devices with servo-driven devices to increase
the speed of the company's packaging lines.
" It started with the most obvious motions, and now
almost everything is driven by servos, " he said.
Speedier lines can offer a big boost to a snack operation,
but they may also open the door to greater inaccuracy
and product waste if managed improperly.
" Increasing speeds when packaging snack bags is
more difficult than running a rigid container, like a can
of soda, " Curcio said. " Many times it takes high-speed
cameras and years of experience to get bags to handle at
higher speeds. "
For this reason, Gunnell emphasized that some snack
makers may actually boost throughput by slowing their
lines down.
" We have a number of customers who have gotten
more product out the door by slowing down because
they have less waste, less problems, less downtime, " he
said. " I'm seeing that as just as important, and in some
cases, more so than increasing line speed. "
With this in mind, manufacturers must search for the
sweet spot between speed and accuracy when packaging
their snacks. Almond observed an effective way for
producers to enhance both is to dedicate their line to a
specific pack size range.
" The snack manufacturer instead should determine
whether the need is greater small bag capacity, more
production per square foot, or better anticipation of
change in bag size mix, " he said.
