Client’s Objective:
A leading manufacturing company aimed to enhance the traceability of their products after packaging process by printing essential details—weight, date, and time—directly onto their product boxes. This required seamless communication between multiple machines from different manufacturers.
The Challenge:
The project involved integrating the following equipment:
- Check Weigher: Minebea Intec – Model – X4 Process Controller PR 5510
- Check Weigher: Mettler Toledo – Model – C 2130
- PLC: Keyence – Model KV-1000
- PLC Communication Module: Model_ KV-L21V
- Printer: Inkjet Printer – Model – KX1G
The primary challenge lay in establishing a reliable communication protocol between these diverse systems. Each machine came with its own unique set of parameters, creating a significant barrier to achieving the desired level of integration.
Unibotech’s Approach:
Unibotech’s team approached the challenge with a focus on developing a robust communication strategy that could unify the disparate systems. Leveraging their expertise in industrial automation and system integration, the team designed a protocol that allowed these machines to effectively communicate, ensuring that the correct data was consistently printed on the product boxes.
Outcome:
The successful implementation of this solution resulted in a fully synchronized production line, where each machine operated in harmony to achieve precise and accurate labeling. The client now enjoys increased operational efficiency and a higher standard of product consistency.
Conclusion:
This project exemplifies Unibotech’s capability to deliver complex, multi-system integration solutions that cater to the unique needs of our clients. Our team’s dedication and technical prowess ensure that we continue to meet and exceed our clients’ expectations, no matter the complexity of the challenge.
