Case Study: Delbia Do Company achieves flexible bottle printing changeovers with Dorner conveyors

Delbia Do Company speeds bottle and carton coding changeovers with Dorner conveyors

The customer, Delbia Do Company, a contract manufacturer of fragrances and flavors, needed a flexible production line solution to print lot codes on the bottom of varying-sized perfume bottles without costly changeover delays. Vendor Dorner, working with the Knotts Company, provided 2200 series conveyors to address this challenge.

The Dorner solution utilized a custom conveyor structure with two horizontal conveyors and two adjustable vertical conveyors to carry bottles over a gap where a printer was mounted. This allowed seamless printing on different bottle sizes. The system's flexibility also enabled quick changeover to print on larger folding cartons, resulting in significant time savings for Delbia Do.
