Solution 03
Packaging & end-of-line
Conveying, weighing, labelling, checking, packing and workstation ergonomics treated as one industrial flow rather than disconnected machines.

SYNTAVER · Packaging & end-of-lineWhen this solution makes sense
Signals we look for on site.
Priority is stable flow and easy operation: access, changeovers, cleaning, maintenance and manual recovery are considered in the concept.
Recurring accumulation and jams
Accumulation, manual recovery or jams moving the bottleneck to the end of the line.
Manual case packing or transfer
Cartoning, transfer, orientation or loading requiring sustained manual work.
Unsynchronised labelling or marking
Printing, application or label verification not synchronised with line logic.
Multiple formats or references
Multiple cartons, products or pallet formats requiring frequent fragile adjustments.
Palletising or dispatch preparation
Line exit, palletising or dispatch preparation limiting overall capacity.
Typical scope
What the project can include.
Flow and bottleneck analysis
Conveying, accumulation and transfer
Labelling, inspection and marking
Case packing, closing and orientation
Simple palletising or operator assistance
Upstream / downstream synchronisation

These items do not replace a site survey; they show the level of detail used to scope a pre-study.
01Data to collect+
- Nominal throughput and peaks
- Product / carton / pallet formats
- Changeover time and accumulation points
- Space, flow direction and upstream/downstream interfaces
02Possible building blocks+
- Conveying, accumulation and transfer
- Weighing, labelling and code reading
- Cartoning / closing / orientation
- Palletising or ergonomic assistance
03Useful deliverables+
- Flow and bottleneck map
- Format / recipe matrix
- Line architecture and sequence
- Throughput and fault-recovery test plan
04Acceptance criteria+
- Sustained throughput without critical accumulation
- Changeover time
- Jam / operator intervention rate
- Labelling / checking / traceability synchronisation
Method
Three scoping steps before integration.
The objective is to reduce grey zones before placing orders or starting on-site work.
1. Survey the flow
Formats, throughput, changeovers, operator motions and available space.
2. Combine the useful functions
Conveying, checking, weighing, labelling, palletising or workstation assistance.
3. Stabilise operations
Throughput trials, maintenance access, safety and ergonomics.
