Due to a shortage of staff at a customer, we started looking together at where in the process hands could be saved. We eventually ended up at a big bag line where big bags are filled with the customer’s product, after which the big bags are sealed manually.
The person who previously closed the big bags can now be deployed elsewhere in the factory, which has made up for part of the staff shortage. In addition to covering staff shortages, this solution is an investment with a good payback period. This makes it a sustainable, future-oriented solution for the customer.
