Golden Crisp Premium Foods (Patrick Cudahy)
The challenge.
Golden Crisp Premium, a provider of bacon products, came to us needing a new process to load and transfer product into and from a Yamato scale.
The project required integrating a recently purchased Yamato scale into their current operation, as well developing a system for easy cleaning of the scale buckets.
Upon meeting with the client and visiting the plant, the Fusion Tech team designed and fabricated a system complete with a manual pack kick-off to maintain product yield goals.
