Initially, we expected to double our manual output, but our production people worked with Automated Packaging Systems to integrate some additional software and improve efficiency with the Sprint bagger to a point where I think we're running at optimum capacity now. Everyone here is simply astonished with the results [output increased by 470%]. ~ S.S., Production Manager
