Fruit Processing Plant Saves Money By Implementing Automated Labeling Solutions

By Avery Dennison Printer Systems Division

This Fresh Produce Processing Facility had 43 packers hand mark each carton produced for number of fruit, color/size of fruit, mode of shipping and packer code.

This process took each packer 12-14 steps at an estimated time of 14.5 seconds.

This method was getting costly as the Customer was experiencing a fruit production increase of 5% annually. The facility was running at capacity and a second night shift was planned.
