Smarter snack packaging reduces waste, labor
The use of artificial intelligence and machine learning in snack packaging is reducing waste and labor by improving efficiency and consistency. Companies such as Harpak-Ulma and Plan IT Packaging are utilizing smart controls and automation to enhance their packaging systems.
The snack packaging industry is becoming more efficient with the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning. Smart controls reduce waste by tightening parameters in sealing and improving repeatability. Automation also stabilizes output with fewer operator touchpoints, improving consistency. Companies are using material tracking and waste data to monitor scrap and material usage in real time. Training operators on best-in-class operating parameters is key to a consistent operation with low waste and high efficiency. The use of historical data and user-friendly process controls can also improve packaging systems.
