Research & Development

Examples of Research and Development Projects Include:

An automatic recycling machine to separate plastic vacuum pack wrapping from the raw materials, to reducing landfill waste and improving cost efficiency for the client.
A semi automatic, heavy root crop trimming and halving machine, having the ability to automatically adjust to various graded sizes reducing labour costs by 60% on average
Automatic watering systems for plants to reduce labour costs and ensure all products receive correct dosage of water
Vision system to identify shape, irregularities, date confirmation again to remove human error and save the customer expensive re-call costs as a result.
Automatic Q-box erecting system to protect users from RSI strain and further reduce labour costs
Automatic size grading of Celeriac and semi-automatic size reduction
Automatic box closing systems
Semi-automatic carousel lines for re-packing stoned fruits reducing labour requirements by 50% per annum

The challenges of these projects are approached in a methodical way to ensure that the inevitable R&D costs are kept to a minimum.

An in depth consultation of proposed works and clear communication throughout the project ensures that clients can monitor their expenditure and plan deadlines for final installation. Promech Engineering is able to incorporate robotics and vision systems where appropriate. Initial no obligation consultations are free and we will not sell equipment to a client which is more complex than necessary.
