Existing-line expansion for fruit processing machinery

Locate the constraint with synchronized observations before buying a faster machine.

01
Record the baseline
Collect stop reasons, accepted output, material conditions and cleaning/changeover periods over a representative schedule. State the measurement boundary.
02
Test competing explanations
A starved filler, blocked extractor or full buffer can have several causes. Compare timing and inventories before declaring a machine the bottleneck.
03
Plan the cutover
Define space, foundations, utilities, temporary connections, software responsibility and a reversible return to the prior configuration where practical. Revalidate affected product and cleaning boundaries.
