Why use Production Development Services?
We do the work that others don't.
Think about that piece of equipment that was specially developed for your process, the supplier didn't perfect the process or the machine's performance has deteriorated over time, the machine is now an integral part of your production but a constant source of frustration. Your staff cannot solve the problems. Maybe you have the ability to keep producing, but you're not achieving the efficiency you think you should.
The example machine shown in the images is one such machine. Produced many years ago, no drawings exist and no manual is available.
Product: PP28 Tamper Evident Bottle Cap Assembly in clean room environment.
Problem: The machine would not run without constant attention (every few minutes) to clean and unblock the feed system.
Resolution; The vibratory feeder of the internal insert (dropper) was replaced at a cost of 7000 euros. Pneumatic valves and 2 cylinders were changed, 2 cylinders that were no longer available were reconditioned. All the elements of the machine were disassembled, cleaned, reconditioned if necessary and then everything was reassembled.
The machine was tested and returned to production.
Time invested:
1 day for vibratory system
4 days of general engineering for the improvement of mechanical elements
7 days for the complete disassembly, replacement of parts and reconstruction of the machine.
Note: There was a break-in period for the vibratory system prior to the complete rebuild of the machine.
After the reconditioning, it was observed that the machine worked according to the cycle time and without stops.
