A Sweet Success Story

Customized Product Handling – A Sweet Success Story

At MGS, we know that manufacturers across industries often have uniquely shaped or delicate products that take special technologies to handle with efficiency and precision. We believe equipment designers should step up to these challenges with tailor-made solutions that integrate with existing layouts without sacrificing throughput. 

Confectionary companies in particular face product handling and packaging challenges for their products. The fragile nature and diversity of candy forms and their packaging calls for reliable solutions that provide accuracy and consistency. 

Furthermore, in the fast-moving industry of confectionary production, manufacturers also need flexibility in their production lines to quickly adapt new products and adjust production speeds to meet market demands.

One company came to MGS for exactly this. A leading confectionary manufacturer approached us with a unique, hard-to-handle product that required a production upgrade. This company had been using equipment that became worn down overtime, required semi-automatic manual activities and negatively impacted their throughput. 

To match higher production needs, they knew they needed a newer, more reliable machine, but one that was cost-effective and could still fit into this product’s compact production line.

They heard about MGS thanks to our proven reputation in complex integrations and unique product handling solutions. Once they contacted us, we quickly got to work on creating two brand-new solutions custom engineered for their product and compact production space.

The first solution was based on MGS’s 45 years of engineering experience in intermittent pick ‘n’ place (IPP) technology. We created a customized IPP module, designed to efficiently set up shelf-ready retail display trays onto a conveyer for downstream packaging. 

The trays then make their way down to the second solution: a completely tailor-made robotic product handling system designed from the ground up by our team. We referenced several of our past projects where unique products were loaded into trays and cartons with utmost precision by an overhead vacuum gantry loading module. 

The undertaking was a huge success. The custom-made, highly reliable equipment optimized workflow, reduced product waste, and increased throughput for our customer. In fact, the result has been so dramatic that they’re looking at other downstream and upstream solutions from MGS, such as a robotic palletizer and a custom candy wrapping solution.

With MGS’s customized Product Handling Solutions (PHS), manufacturers are free to create the products that their industry needs without being limited by generic equipment. Whether your unique product is for confectionary, pharma, personal care, or another industry, MGS is ready to take on your toughest challenges.
