Packaging Machine Performance Improvement and Upgrade

In addition to PSMotion being able to expose and root out performance limiting machine operations with our High Speed Video, Dynamic Machine Measurement, and our Portable Coordinate Meachine Measurement arm, we can design out the problem too.

Often a machine has a distinct operation that limits its overall capacity or performance. The limitations might result from:
  • basic speed limiting from excess mechanismor frame vibration
  • a new packaging specification limits the machine speed or causes product damage or quality defects at existing speed
  • a machine operation might be very sensitive to set-up or adjustment after change-over etc
  • not enough machine time with the existing joining or assembly technology requiring a reduced machine speed
  • drive transmission problems causing machine phasing problems
With the data derived from our measurements and the experience available from your operations and performance improvement teams, we can then provide you with a turnkey retrofit solution that is focussed at the root cause of the capacity or performance problem.
Machine Performance Improvement and Upgrade options include:
  • Optimising Machine and Mechanism layout arrangment so that it is best suited to your needs of speed, reliability or range of product sizes.
  • Optimising Motion timing, type and extent of motions etc so that the demands on the machine components are minimised
  • Optimising Motions to maximise processing availablity
  • Providing new joining or assembly technologies
  • De-bottlenecking machines

Any machine design improvement you need: we can help determine what is your machine bottleneck and provide you with a solution to overcome it.
