Digitization and Process Automation For Packaging

The digital world is here. Packaging plants are turning to digitization and process automation for packaging and production. Here’s why your business should digitalize and tips to help you to automate your workflow.

The importance of digitizing packaging processes

Digitalization is essential to help businesses to grow. There are many advantages of using business process automation services. Digitizing the packaging process through automation and business process automation software helps to speed up the packaging process. Your business can produce more items at a quicker rate. The increase in production will allow your business to grow your market. Your business can target new clients in different regions or countries and introduce e-commerce channels as your supply of production increases.

Along with growing your business, you can also cut labor and maintenance costs. Automated machines can take care of packaging at an affordable rate and are often easy to clean and maintain. Your business can also introduce eco-friendly and difficult-to-fill packaging resources as automated machines make packaging and labeling easier to implement.

How far have we come towards a fully automated workflow?

Automatic machines and software are a big step toward digitizing. Many businesses in the packaging industry have introduced automated workflows which help to reduce human error, increase productivity and create a more hygienic work environment. Labor is still essential, however with automated systems, businesses can train staff to help to maintain automated systems.

Delving into cGMP: Its Crucial Role in Food Packaging and Safety

By Michael Naylor • 12 Jan, 2024

Food packaging plays a vital role in ensuring the safety and quality of the food we consume. To maintain high standards and prevent foodborne illnesses, the food packaging industry follows a set of regulations known as Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP). In this article, we will delve into cGMP and explore its impact on preventing foodborne illness. We will also take an inside look at how cGMP is implemented on a food factory line, the role of food filling equipment in ensuring compliance, and discuss the future of cGMP in food packaging for strengthening food safety.

Harmonizing cGMP, HACCP, and HARPC in Food Line Safety

By Michael Naylor • 12 Jan, 2024

Current Good Manufacturing Practices Food safety is of utmost importance in the food industry, and several systems work together to prevent foodborne illnesses. This article explores the harmonization of Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP), Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP), and Hazard Analysis and Risk-based Preventive Controls (HARPC) in ensuring food line safety. We will delve into the synergy between these systems, the role of critical control points, and their practical application in both automatic and manual counting devices. Additionally, we will discuss how cGMP, HACCP, and HARPC optimize automatic filling machines for enhanced food safety. This is the second in a series of articles on cGMP.
