Case Study: CAMA Group achieves high-speed cheese slice pouch handling with Piab vacuum technology

CAMA Group handles 280 cheese pouches per minute with Piab

CAMA Group, an international leader in secondary packaging systems, faced a challenge in creating a high-speed system to handle over 100 different formats of cheese slice pouches without damaging them. They needed FDA-compliant suction cups and a vacuum solution that could operate at 280 pouches per minute while minimizing changeover times and compressed air consumption.

Piab provided a solution using its piGRIP FDA-approved suction cups and COAX vacuum generators. This combination allowed CAMA Group to develop a flexible gripper system that handles all product formats at high speed without leaving marks or causing damage. The result was a significant reduction in compressed air and energy consumption, minimized production waste, and the achievement of their target speed of 280 pouches handled per minute.
