Description
Summary:In the case of packing deep frozen fruit in PVC foil, the foil consumption is significant and it is calculated per unit of mass or per unit of length. The measurement of foil consumption can become inaccurate because there are many technological and technical problems. The optimization of solutions for foil consumption is based on the application of encoders on existing packing machines and it is the key for obtaining correct results. This paper shows a model of a foil consumption measuring system, which helps provide a lower price for packing.
