Big packaging system replaces long walking distances

The solution
The solution
With the new packaging facility, a great part of the packaging process at DCS has been automated. The average processing time per order has dropped significantly and is now only 22 minutes which is exceptionally low.
DCS has streamlined workflows with the new packaging system including a Packsize machine which produces customized cardboard boxes. The carboard is cut in the right size to fit the size of the product and put together. Then it is being transported to the buffer conveyor for collecting.
The new warehouse at DCS resulted in longer walking distances in the packaging department for the employees. Product conveyors placed different places in the warehouse make sure that when the products are picked and placed in the boxes, they will be transported further. Here they will also be check weighted and photographed. A process which has eliminated a lot of errors because it will be registered if the right content is in the boxes.
There is a product line too for the products which already has been wrapped.
"Our gut feeling was very good with Sealing System who was able to deliver a solution which simplifies our way of working; automized our processes and was the reason why we got more efficient in our workflows. We avoid difficulties when picking and packing."
Daniel Pedersen, co-owner at DCS
