WMH boosts efficiency with new packing systems at major bakery

WMH has successfully completed the installation of two advanced packing systems for a leading wholesale morning goods bakery, marking a significant upgrade in operational efficiency and product handling.

The newly implemented systems streamline the process of transferring frozen packaged goods from freezer storage to boxed units, ready for palletisation and dispatch. This enhancement has led to notable improvements in product flow, a reduction in product damage, and a more user-friendly packing experience for operators.

Each system features a carousel packing conveyor, designed to allow for product accumulation and ensure a smooth packing rhythm. Ergonomic packing stations are seamlessly integrated with automated case erectors, supplying a continuous flow of empty cartons to the packing area—minimising downtime and maximising throughput.

To further enhance usability and control, both packing lines are operated via intuitive touchscreen HMI (Human-Machine Interface) panels. These interfaces allow operators to monitor system performance, adjust settings, and respond quickly to production needs, all from a centralised control point.

“We’re pleased to have delivered a bespoke solution tailored to the specific needs of this site,” said a WMH spokesperson. “Our team worked closely with the client to ensure the systems not only improved efficiency but also simplified operations for the packing staff.”

WMH’s latest innovation underscores its commitment to delivering tailored automation solutions that meet the evolving needs of the food production industry.
