  1. MIME 5160 Facilities Planning and Design The line consists of the following Machines: • Bottle washer • Filling machine • Sealing machine • Inspection zone • Labeling machine • Packing conveyor

  2. MIME 5160 Facilities Planning and Design Breakage of Bottles • `` and free falling on the conveyor • In Filling machine - Due to improper height • In sealing machine - Due to improper height • In Labeling machine- Due to entry fault into screw conveyor

  3. MIME 5160 Facilities Planning and Design Solution for Bottle Washer Breakage • Purchase of bottles from a vendor who supplies standard bottles of size and shape • By placing a thin cushion lining at the bottle free fall position in the Bottle washer

  4. MIME 5160 Facilities Planning and Design Solution to breakage in Filling and Sealing machine • By checking the height of the bottles entering the system • Over sized bottles, sensed by an optical method, are ejected pneumatically from the conveyor

  5. MIME 5160 Facilities Planning and Design Solution to Breakage in Labeling machine • Checking for continuous flow of bottles • optically sensing the gap between bottles and stopping the flow into the labeling conveyor

  6. Need Takes more time when done manually More errors due to fatigue of operator eye strain repeated or cyclic work Procedure using photo sensor to identify the defects eliminating the bad product by pneumatic ejector MIME 5160 Facilities Planning and Design Automatic Inspection

  7. Need for faster packing synchronization of the process Process Pneumatic grippers are used to pick up bottles casing jigs are used for placing the bottles in the carton MIME 5160 Facilities Planning and Design Automatic Case Packing Machine

  8. MIME 5160 Facilities Planning and Design Re-layout Need • The existing layout of the plant is inefficient • It needs a lot of manual operation • consumes more time • looks awkward

  9. MIME 5160 Facilities Planning and Design Improvised Layout • Taking the bottles to machines using a conveyor • taking shortest rectilinear way to the machines • joining all the machines in a continuous flow line
