Optimized Packaging for Your Dairy Processing Line
Check out our write-up in Dairy Processing about optimized packaging and what we mean when we say “Uptime Is The Only Time That Matters!”.
From the article:
As an OEM-neutral integrator of packaging technology, Integrated Packaging Machinery (IPM), Rockford, Mich., seeks to help dairy processors control entire packaging lines as one system, business development manager Tom Wiersma said.
“In the case of a new line as part of an expansion or a greenfield project, we think of the entire line of a dozen or more machines and functions as a total machine,” Wiersma said. “We design the automated solution while thinking of the whole series of machine centers and unit operations as a single entity, and that’s how we keep a dairy processing line up and running. In the case of a major rebuild, we’ll conduct a pre-design uptime audit to document the current state before recommending a future state packaging solution. Our customers have a lot of capital tied up in their operation and a lot of customers to satisfy. It is incumbent upon us to help them optimize their packaging line assets.”
