A bespoke pick and place cell, designed by Pacepacker Services for loading trays into autoclave baskets, has enabled a leading UK pet food manufacturer to capitalise on growing demand for wet food in trays and pots.
The company, a leading UK based manufacturer of dried and wet pet food, supplies both domestic and international markets.
Whilst canned pet food is still a major chunk of the market, in recent years, alternative formats, such as pouches and sealed trays, have grown in popularity due to re-sealable lids that are easier to open and the avoidance of cuts from metal edges.
In line with this trend, the company took the decision to move some of its canned production into plastic trays. However, the system it was using to load cans into autoclave baskets was not compatible with the new tray format.
