The Problem/Existing Situation

Cofresh is one of the most favorite Indian snack brands in UK. They have a wide variety of Indian and other snack products. Founded in early 60s, today they are famous for providing innovative snacks with authentic flavors. Being the best, they have the responsibly to meet the needs of customers and always keep their products in stock, on the shelf.

Once the snacks are baked, they will be tested through a metal detector then they will be feeded into the feeder machine, which will do the primary packing according to the weight of the packets. After this the secondary packaging of carton packets will be done manually wherein people open the carton & seal from the bottom face, put snack packets in the carton and then seal the top face and put it on a conveyor which takes it further.

There are total 14 lines for 14 different categories of products and each line was operating manually. This was creating some issue as the output was not in line with the growing demand requirement. They approached Addverb Technologies Pvt. Ltd in India to come up with a solution to automate the best seller product packing line to understand the functionality as well as benefits of robotic packaging.
