Application Case Study: Snack Production Factory in Suzhou, Jiangsu Province, China
Date Published
The global snack industry has long been a focal point, but with the growth in market demand and intensified competition. Located in Jiangsu, this factory aims to enhance production efficiency and reduce costs. Therefore, they have purchased three Reeman Big Dog delivery robots to improve material handling efficiency and the flexibility of the production line.
Roles of the Big Dog delivery Robots on the production line:
1. Raw Material Handling: The Big Dog delivery Robots are configured to automatically delivery various raw materials such as potatoes, peanuts, and corn from the warehouse to different workstations on the production line.
2. Semi-finished Product Handling: The Big Dog delivery Robots are also responsible for transferring semi-finished products from one workstation to another during the processing process, ensuring the continuity and efficiency of the production process.
3. Finished Product Packaging: Upon completion of production, the Big Dog Robots deliver the finished products to the manual packaging area.
Simultaneously, the Big Dog delivery Robots operate around the clock in a three-shift system. The robots cover eight loops, with an average length of 120 meters per loop. In one shift, the robots travel an average distance of 5.5-6 kilometers. Currently, the Big Dog delivery Robots work 12-hour shifts, three shifts per day. Warehouse workers particularly appreciate the advantages of the Big Dog delivery Robots, finding them easy to operate with a user-friendly display screen interface.
Following the introduction of the delivery robots, significant achievements have been made in this snack production factory: material handling efficiency has increased by 15%, significantly reducing production cycles. Additionally, the flexibility of the production line has been significantly enhanced, allowing for faster adaptation to changes in orders and the introduction of new products.
