To Optimize the Efficiency of Bottle Sleeving Machine by Reducing Systematic Errors

Sandesh Kanse

Abstract


Bottle sleeving machines are the machines use to label and sleeving the caps to the bottle. To gain the mass production and to improve the efficiency of this machine our team decided to change the parameters and proper alignment of few parts in machine. Previously, there were several errors include like systematic errors. Firstly, we change the sensors positioning to get successive operation of sleeves to the bottle. There were two limits in sensors with maximum limit and minimum limit. By setting parameters of sensors, we got the desired results. We also decided to vary the speed of conveyor and server motor to ensure the productivity rate by coming out with fruitful results. Nowadays for mass production of consumable products automatic packing machines are used. Its speed varies from 60ppm to 120ppm (ppm=piece per minute) as per the customer requirement. But due to some operational errors production speed and efficiency of the machine was not achieved. The errors due to mis-positioning of sensors, machining defects, servo motor frequency, and conveyor speed etc. By altering/changing these parameters we are able to achieve maximum productivity and efficiency of the machine. The sleeves are placed on the bottle and press by using pusher. But for perfect alignment of sleeve IMR sensor, proximity sensor sends signal to the PLC. But due to the inaccurate parameters the perfect alignment is not obtained. For that purpose, some research and analysis yet to be done by taking no. of readings.
