Cigarette & Packaging Systems
High-speed production demands elite engineering. We are one of the few automation companies globally with deep on-site experience modernizing and troubleshooting G.D., SASIB, and Molins machines.
Why Cigarette Machinery Requires Specialized Engineers
A modern packer processes up to 10 packets per second. At these speeds, physical limits are reached. A standard PLC program with 10ms scan times will miss sensory triggers, leading to adhesive misapplications, wrapper tears, and instant line shutdown. We write custom real-time code optimized for tasks executing at 250 microseconds, leveraging Beckhoff EtherCAT distributed clocks for sub-microsecond servo sync.
