Case study: Remia increases production capacity with new palletizer

Remia was in search of a solution to increase the production capacity of its factory in Den Dolder

Food manufacturer Remia was in search of a solution to increase the production capacity of its factory in Den Dolder. The solution was found in the implementation of a new palletizing machine, the Highrunner from Qimarox. This machine is not only faster and more robust than its predecessor but also provides more valueble floor space. Project manager Jan Berndsen of Remia said, “We can now switch gears more quickly, even when the stacking pattern changes.”

Remia, established in Den Dolder since 1951, produces sauces, dressings, and cooking oils for both households and professional kitchens. Due to a growing demand, the food company sought a solution to increase the capacity of a crucial production line. The production line faced a major bottleneck: an aging portal robot used for palletizing finished products. “This machine could no longer be maintained, and many spare parts were no longer available. Furthermore, the capacity was no longer sufficient,” explained project manager Jan Berndsen.
