Food & Beverage Automation
Discuss Your Automation RequirementsOur Food & Beverage Automation solutions help manufacturers improve product handling, inspection, packaging and production-line processes. We develop automation around the actual product, equipment layout and production flow, with support for individual applications and integrated production processes.
What Our Food & Beverage Automation Helps With
Food and beverage production can involve repeated handling, inspection and packaging activities across several machines.
Our team reviews the product flow and production requirements before selecting an automation approach. Depending on the application, the solution may focus on automated handling, machine vision, packaging integration or coordination between multiple production stages.
Product Handling Automation
Automated handling can support repetitive movement between production and packaging processes.
Applications may include:
- Product transfer
- Pick-and-place
- Product positioning
- Movement between processing and packaging stages
The system should be selected according to the product, movement requirements and production flow.
Automated Inspection and Verification
Machine vision can support inspection and verification during production and packaging.
Relevant applications include:
- Automated visual inspection
- Product verification
- Barcode and QR code reading
- OCR
- Positioning and alignment
- Quality-control inspection
The system should be configured around the specific product, code, text or packaging feature that needs to be checked.
Packaging and Production-Line Integration
Automation can connect handling, conveying and inspection within packaging operations. Depending on the application, this may include product movement into packaging equipment, transfer between stages, label or code verification, inspection and end-of-line processes.
iMS Motionet can also support integration between relevant production equipment so individual processes operate as part of a coordinated system.
