Packhouse automation provides valuable support

Some may see packhouse automation as a big financial outlay, but it’s also one of the best bang-for-your-buck investments a packhouse can make nowadays. Not only does it significantly improve packhouse productivity, it also allows packhouses the freedom to redeploy labour where it’s needed.

It’s no secret that when manual labour is under pressure, quality may be compromised, whereas with robotic technology, quantity and quality go hand-in-hand. The output capabilities of robotic apple packers surpasses what we’re capable of achieving through manual processes.

Minimal downtime is another drawcard for packline operators looking to invest in robotic packing technology. Packhouses are under the pump, which is why robotic technologies allow for seamless integration with existing systems with minimal user training required.
