THAT TAKES THE BISCUITS
30 October 2012
When it wanted to upgrade its digestive production line to improve productivity and quality, United Biscuits turned to Ingenia Solutions.
The brief was to replace the current biscuit transfer system with a new system which was faster and incorporated a metal detector (MD) station, biscuit transfer arrangement and two off-biscuit transfer units which direct product into the existing case packing machine.
Ingenia’s solution was centred around Bosch Varioflow technology – the modular chain conveyor system which can be easily adapted to specific tasks and production layouts. The end result was a working biscuit handling system, manufactured in line with the customer’s production environment.
