Newest Automation Technology By Annette N. Andersen, Marketing Coordinator, Bila A/S The customers are looking for one supplier that is able to offer them overall solutions - solutions that lead to a significant higher productivity and efficiency and also improvement of their bottom line. This is where we can benefit from our many years of experience within the dairy sector. But the key to success also lies within the close co-operation with our customers and the tools we use to optimize the course of events. Co-operation with the customer When we start co-operating with a customer we do not only see him as a customer - but as a strategic partner. This kind of co-operation is important in order for us to be able to develop present and future projects. ”With a close dialog and control throughout the entire project - both internally at Bila A/S but also with the customer - the risk of misunderstandings is minimized”, says managing Director Jan B. Sørensen. Through co-operation with our strategic partners we have developed sev- At Bila A/S in Denmark, which is one of the leading suppliers of overall solutions within ”downstream” and ”end-of-line” equipment for dairies in Northern Europe, we are constantly focused on being at the cutting edge of the newest technology within automation. eral successful standard-concepts. An example is the newly developed “Bila Milk Packer” which is a combined robot cell for fast and efficient packing of milk cartons in either plastic boxes or containers. This cell can handle up to 9.600 milk cartons per hour. Masterplan as a tool In order to find the best solution for our customers we use Masterplan as a tool. Based on the questions in the Masterplan, the manufacturing process from beginning to end is examined and the various issues are noted. This way we gain insight into ways of increasing the efficiency through automation and ways of protecting employees from monotonous work. Already after the first visit, we are able to draw up the budget for potential suggestions for solutions based on the Masterplan. Constant developement To follow the tendencies within the dairy sector and at the same time be at the forefront of the development, we keep a constant focus on the development of new automation solutions. We use almost 10.000 hours every year for development. ”With our huge focus on development, our employees are perfected and at the same time, we are able to act very quickly to changes in the market and in the needs of the customers”, says Chief of Development, Frank Gade. Automation at smaller companies At the cooperative Them Dairy in Denmark, the question was not whether to get a robot cell, but how quickly they could get it. With an increased demand from the market, the need for enlargement of the capacity arose at the dairy. The solution was at the same time going to release the employees of the daily heavy and monotonous work. A manual job that included lifting and carrying cheeses from a conveyor belt and into plastic boxes placed on pallets, which also had to be moved on a regular basis. ”Due to increasing market demands we had the need for transferring employees to other job functions within the dairy. We never meant to cut down when getting the robot cell. We have good stable employees, which we want to offer interesting jobs, and that’s why installation of the robot plant was evident”, says Them’s Dairy Manager, Svend Andersen. Bila A/S was chosen as the supplier for this project, as the dairy’s board of directors had previous and very good experiences with Bila A/S’s robot plants. Due to this confidence and sense of security regarding our expertise and know-how, Bila A/S became the supplier. The solution was a palletizing plant with a Kawasaki ZD130 robot. After the paraffin plant, the cheeses are transported to the next station to be 42 MÆLKERITIDENDE 2010 NR. 8
