“We are thrilled to strengthen our presence in the Greek Flour Industry through this exceptional project with Papafili Mills S.A., expressed Panagiotis Houlis, Commercial Director at Icon Systems. “At Icon Systems, we firmly believe that a one-size-fits-all approach is insufficient. Drawing on our expertise, we conducted a thorough evaluation of Papafili Mills’ existing line and strategically decided to replace the vacuum bag gripper with a mechanical alternative. The results speak for themselves – significantly improved speed, precision, and pallet shape.”
In addition to this transformative change, Icon Systems took on the responsibility of replacing and reprogramming the Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) of the palletizing line. This comprehensive system includes various components such as a belt conveyor for flour bag transportation, a KUKA robotic arm, roller conveyors for bags and pallets, an empty pallet dispenser, a vertical lift chain conveyor system for seamless pallet transfer, and a bag flattener.
Papafili Mills firmly believes that excellence in a given field is just the beginning, not the end. They continuously strive to be pioneers and innovators in the industry, adapting their philosophy to meet modern challenges and requirements. This collaboration signifies a shared dedication to achieving excellence and fostering innovation.
Icon Systems is proud to support Papafili Mills on their journey towards excellence, demonstrating an unwavering commitment to customer satisfaction, product excellence, and providing the foundation for their ongoing success.
