Application:
- Hospital Laundry Supplier looking for a solution to accelerate how they processed and packaged hospital gowns
- Existing process used six employees to manually fold and load the gowns into each bag, which were then hand-tied shut
Solution:
- The Autobag® 800S™ was chosen for its openness, easy access, productivity, and its ability to accommodate a large sized bag
- Each 22” wide bag held 10 laundered gowns
- An incline conveyor was incorporated to load completed bags into a cart, which was then pushed directly onto a truck for delivery
End Result:
- Increased packaging speeds
- Significant savings of both time and labor by reallocating four employees away from this application
