Josef Manner & Comp. AG, one of the foremost confectionary producers in Austria, has begun using Sick’s sensor solutions for packing their wide-ranging product series, to guarantee effective production and packing processes. These sensors work on a number of tasks that include controlling, sorting, counting and identifying jobs. Customized sensors are available to suit varied designs and sizes of products, reactive interference sources, and overcrowded or restricted places of installation.
As a result, a single sensor source is favored by Manner, to make certain, that attributes like accessibility, financial viability with efficiency, and operational security are being catered to. SICK provides a range of sensor solutions that are ideal for the manufacture and packaging of the confectionery.
The range includes contrast sensors, that ensures a great deal of flexibility, especially where there are attributes like shapes, colors, sizes of packages, different materials being used etc to be considered; Optical Food and Beverage sensors; Photoelectric sensor series for capturing product information, controlling quality and counting applications; and inductive sensors having DIN 40050 and an enclosure rating of IP 69K.
These sensors were chosen mainly because of their features, such as wide scanning range, small sizes, competitive cost-performance ratio, reduced sensitivity towards interference and ease of use. They also provide a prompt swapping among varied products and packaging categories, concurrently being able to accommodate alterations in production needs using a sensor based on a single source, thus making it cost-effective and efficient. They can be very easily adapted or customized to suit Manner’s products with minimal exertion, ensuring professional competency for seasonal business periods or special retail campaigns. Thus SICK with its countless years of experience and familiarity with the food and packaging sector, offers ideal solutions, fulfilling Manner’s requirements.
