Creating a Sustainable Future is at the Forefront of Company’s Green Initiatives
Rockville, MD, September 30, 2020 –Acquired Data Solutions (ADS), a leading-edge technology and engineering solutions provider, announces its partnership with Bytronic Automation to launch Bytronic USA. Together, the companies will provide green manufacturing solutions to manufacturers looking to reduce their environmental footprint, embrace sustainability, reduce waste and protect the environment. Bytronic Automation in the UK is already working with companies like Unilever, Amazon, Aston Martin, Anheuser Busch, and Ford to provide green manufacturing solutions.
“We’re so excited to be working with Bytronic Automation and launch Bytronic USA. Our 20-year relationship with Bytronic reflects not only our commitment to each other but our commitment to lead the green manufacturing movement and help organizations implement environmentally conscious manufacturing processes so they are more efficient, competitive and profitable,” said Steve Seiden, President of Acquired Data Solutions.
One of the manufacturing processes that Bytronic USA offers is the ability to reduce and/or eliminate package waste on beverage products by measuring the hot-melt glue applied to cartons that the products are in so that plastic coverings can be eliminated.
By using Bytronic HotSpot™ – a fully integrated quality control system that uses non-contact thermal imaging technology – hot-melt glue can be applied correctly without a manual inspection ensuring cartons are secure while controlling the amount of glue being used. A thermal camera detects the hot spots created by the glue in conjunction with a high-resolution vision camera which helps determine the position of the packaging. Deviations from specifications such as missing glue, incorrect quantities and misplaced glue spots, are rejected and if necessary, the line is stopped. There is zero contact with the product and a guarantee that the glue is hidden from the naked eye.
HotSpot™ has also been used by a Bytronic Automation customer who is a popsicle manufacturer to make sure every popsicle pack is correctly glued, folded, sealed and packaged with integrity. The result has been a reduction in waste, elimination of product recalls, avoidance of customer complaints and most importantly, prevention of contamination.
“Acquired Data Solutions and Bytronic USA are excited to offer forward-thinking manufacturing processes such as HotSpot to reduce plastic waste which has become a huge problem across the globe,” said Seiden. “Together, we will focus on green practices such as these that aren’t only vital for the environment but for companies who want to make sure their products are manufactured safely with the environment top of mind.”
