Case study: Multi-aperture bread inspections boost TCO
Bread is big business in the United States, making up 2.1 percent of the gross domestic product, and accounting for about US $311.0 billion in total economic output.
Poised for continued growth and with the average US household expected to spend around $383.75 per annum by 2021 on baked goods, production and quality inspection speed will be critical to meeting this demand.
As one large European bakery has found, switching from a single conveyor metal detector to a multi-lane, multi-aperture system that allows operatives to run different product batches side-by-side, can boost efficiency and total cost of ownership.
