We are specialist in refurbishment.
During the past few months, we realized three operations of formatting on case packers, for major sites of the French pharmaceutical industry. And others are already scheduled.
Last in date: the refurbishment and formatting of a Cermex SB27 case packer.
Our actions:
– Cleaning, mechanical rehabilitation, format parts’ change and updating of the process
– Change of the mechanical pieces: drawing the new pieces, machining and installation
– Maintenance: incorporation of a new motor and speed controller, and ad hoc settings
Furthermore, this affair of refurbishment had two special features:
1 – Our customer wanted, for purposes of normalization and global control of its production, to integrate Laetus cameras on the machine. The aim was to guarantee and track the content of each carton and case. The pieces of the supports for these cameras were defined together with Laetus, following a visit in our workshop. Then the plans were realized and the pieces machined and mounted with the cameras. Finally, the commissioning was done with the assistance of Laetus.
2 – Constraints of access: the machine had to be dismantled in three parts, and completely disconnected to enter the production zone, then re-assembled and reconnected alike. This only part of the job represented one week of work, mobilizing mechanics, electricians and handlers of our team, along with our own handling equipment.
Your project also has other particularities, like off-limit formats for your machine, or speed to be increased * ? Contact us, and we’ll study the feasibility, taking into account your own constraints.
