Before the covid-19 pandemic outbreak, automation technology is employed in the manufacturing unit where large-scale, labour-intensive manufacturing processes occur.Today, the scenario is completely changing as the pandemic outbreak affected small businesses on so many levels, from a loss of productivity across industries to switch to remote work in every sector, whether it be a clothing industry, building construction organization, or corner store. With this realization, there is a need to transform business processes or modernize workflow by utilizing automated technologies that can make the task less labour-intensiveand regulate social distancing to avoid human contact during day-to-day operations. The introduction of automated technology in SMEs enhances productivity and reduces the workforce, which reduces infection risk and prevents any local outbreak at any given point of time. In this automation race, Columbia introduces automated conventional palletizer that increases SMEs' working efficiency by following social distancing in a pandemic situation with a minimum workforce.Following are key benefits for adopting automation for SME in COVID-19 Times:
Make in India: For the
success of the 'Make in India' program and overall national development, it is
imperative to add automation in SMEs to greater
inter-connectivity between machines, physical systems, and humans in real-time.
Many manufacturers and suppliers in the country employ a large degree of
digitalization and automation. Columbia machine engineering is one of the
leading companies that manufacture and supplies machines like conventional palletizers to make the task easy, efficient,
and less labor-intensive.
Enhance / Increase the Payload:During the pandemic outbreak, human intervention
becomes lesser to avoid infection spreading, but it eventually affects
production. The Covid-19 pandemic catapulted most
businesses to automate to scale up and succeed and wake up small business
owners to understand the need for technology for SMEs. It is the only path that
can enhance or increase the payload during such pandemic situations and help in
sustainable growth. The automatedconventional palletizer at Columbia helpful in
increasing the payload with minimum manpower.
Quick Change over: The automation in SMEs will transform and give a
quick change to traditional SMEs' business tactics. For instance, earlier after manufacturing, the
packaging is considered cumbersome and an intrinsic task that requires a large
workforce. However, the automatization in the machineryreduces the requirement
oflarge forces and accomplish the time-consuming
task quickly. At Columbia, the automated machinery like conventional palletizer
performs packaging tasks rapidly and efficiently with minimum workforce and
applicable at any pandemic crises without much human intervention.
Multiple Line
Integration:Industrial
automation is playing a crucial role in improving manufacturing efficiency and
productivity. Following the manufacturing and production, the packaging is
another critical task. Rising labour cost, higher employee turnover, faster
line speeds, and other issues, including pandemic outbreaks with social
distancing regulation, push management to automate and upgrade existing product
packaging lines and consider multiple lines integration palletizer with full
automation. In this regard, Columbia introduces a Conventional palletizer that
rules the world for Being a cost-effective and efficient way of working.
Other
miscellaneous benefits:
The automation in SMEs also provide the best Economical Solution, smooth
Product Movement / Improved Product Flow, Reduced Manpower during a COVID-19
situation, Improved OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness), improved safety, and
offer reliable and consistent performance.
Based on the benefits
mentioned above, it is clear that automation in SMEs provides innovative and
scalable solutions that not only mitigate COVID-19 risk and manage infectious
diseases at the local level but also enhance productivity, economy, safety, and
product quality.

maintain. Provides an optimal price and speed combination for low-speed
applications. Requiring no modification, the FL2000 can handle a wide variety
of package types, including cases, trays, totes, film only and display packs
from a variety of industries including canned and frozen foods, beverage and
many more.
FL 3000
The Model
FL3000
floor level palletizer is the latest generation of heavy-duty, time tested
palletizer from Columbia Machine. Operating much like the FL2000, the FL3000 is
able to obtain greater speeds due to the addition of a layer storage table,
palletizing up to 30 or more cases per minute, depending on case size and
pallet pattern. As with all heavy-duty Columbia Machine palletizers, the FL3000
includes a formed and welded frame, 80-pitch hoist chain, Category 3 rated
electrical safety components and Product Manager Software, making it
"built to last" and easy to operate.
