Reasons for introducing Amber
I learned about Ambel at the Bunshi Japan exhibition booth. At the time, we were having trouble with stains from corn grits that were being produced for muffins placed directly on the conveyor belt. We thought that introducing Ambel would solve the staining problem and reduce the cleaning time when changing products, which would lead to improved productivity. We conducted a demonstration test at the factory and were able to verify the expected results, so in 2013 we introduced Ambel to the factory with the muffin production line.
Effects and changes after introducing Amber
Due to the impact of the mandatory HACCP system, customers (wholesalers) are increasingly requesting measures to prevent allergen contamination. Furthermore, in recent years, an increasing number of consumers have become stricter about food hygiene management. In this environment, the introduction of Ambel has been highly praised by customers as a measure to prevent allergen contamination, and quality assurance personnel in particular have shown strong interest in Ambel. Naturally, our in-house allergen contamination tests and bacterial tests have also produced results that meet the standards.
Reasons for introducing Amber
We thought that introducing Ambel would enable us to shorten the time required for product changeover, improve productivity, and increase capacity, so we conducted a demo test and verified it, which led us to introduce it.
Effects and changes after introducing Amber
In 2014, our "client" changed their packaging method to side shrink packaging. When the belt of the side shrink packaging machine gets dirty, products slip, causing frequent packaging problems. As a measure to prevent dirt from getting onto the belt of the packaging machine, we tried out a test installation of just one Ambel, and as the frequency of problems decreased dramatically, we installed it on two other lines.
Reasons for introducing Amber
We learned about Amber at exhibitions and at other companies' factories where it had already been introduced, and decided to introduce it because we found it to be effective in terms of hygiene and cost reduction.
Effects and changes after introducing Amber
Because the belt is always kept clean, the bottom of the trays does not get dirty, which has been well received by stores. In addition, cleaning when changing products or after production has become easier, which has reduced operating time by approximately 1.5 hours and significantly reduced labor costs.
Reasons for introducing Amber
We decided to introduce this system as we believe it will be effective in preventing dirt and contamination of products (sandwiches, desserts, etc.) where ingredients are placed directly on the conveyor belt for topping.
Effects and changes after introducing Amber
Before Amber, it took 2-3 workers about 3 minutes to wipe down the conveyor when changing products, but after introducing Amber, it only takes 1 worker about 2 minutes to complete the sanitation, and changeovers can now be done smoothly without any problems in terms of bacteria counts.In addition, there is almost no dirt on the belt surface during work, which has reduced waste due to dirty products.
Reasons for introducing Amber
Our company manufactures a wide variety of products in small quantities, so we often switch products, and we introduced this system to eliminate the time loss caused by cleaning.
Effects and changes after introducing Amber
The level of contamination is completely different between lines with and without Amber installed. After introducing Amber, a wipe test showed that it is also effective as a measure against contamination with allergens. Time lost when switching products has also been reduced, improving productivity.
Reasons for introducing Amber
In 2012, it took two people about an hour to clean the cream puff line at the Kobe factory after production. By introducing Amber, we could shorten the cleaning time when changing products and when production was finished, which we hoped would improve productivity and reduce the burden on workers. We first conducted a demo test and, having verified its effectiveness, decided to introduce it. After that, we began to introduce Amber on the sandwich line, where sandwiches are produced directly on the conveyor belt.
Effects and changes after introducing Amber
Cleaning time when switching products is shorter than on other lines, leading to improved productivity. In-house bacterial testing has also yielded good results, allowing for safe production in terms of hygiene management. Furthermore, the Ambell is linked to the conveyor, making it easy to operate and use. This is particularly beneficial as many of our workers are foreigners. Sanitation of the Ambell after production is also quick, which is also helpful.
Reasons for introducing Amber
The demonstration at FOOMA left a strong impression on me and I was intrigued. After hearing more about it, I became convinced that this would lead to reduced cleaning time when changing products and improved productivity.
Effects and changes after introducing Amber
Approximately 10 items are manufactured per day on one production line. Previously, the 10m-long conveyor was cleaned every time a product was changed, but this required turning the conveyor speed to its maximum, spraying alcohol on it, and wiping it down, which took approximately five minutes. After introducing the Amber, this process was eliminated, allowing those five minutes to be used for other tasks, which improved production efficiency. Additionally, from a quality control perspective, the plating of egg sushi, which previously could not be done on the conveyor, can now be done as line work, greatly improving work efficiency.
