This conventional way of dispensing caused large amount of material waste, excessive time usage (resulted in low capacity), high labour costs and a dirty work environment.

The production manager knew that a dispensing machine would be needed needed to be made in order to optimize the production process.

the machine versatility, he wanted to make sure that this was the right choice for his company.
He recieved feedbacks from customers, visited a facility that was already running this equipment, and

analysed the ROI calculations.The numbers could not be more clear thus the decision was easy to make.

Results:

After doing his due diligence, the machine was selected and purchased. The Installation of the new unit saved the company approximately 3.5 hours per day on set-up preparation for the dispensing process.

The waste levels have been dropped by an estimated 40%, which resulted in over $135,000 in savings annually. out of 2000 pcs per day, only 0.2% have been ruled out for quality reasons.

On top of that, the customer also noticed a difference in finish quality of the product surface. The roto-static mixing has eliminated even the smallest bubbles making it look shine and perfect.
