CASE STUDY: HATA FOODS IMPROVES ITS OPERABILITY WITH TOMRA’S POTATO PEELER AND SORTING MACHINE

 Hata Foods, in japanese subsidiary of the Kobe Bussan Group, which manufactures frozen foods, chilled side dishes and PET-bottle products such as salad dressings, sauces and its popular product ‘Potato Salad Bases’, has recently installed a TOMRA Orbit 150 steam peeler, brusher and washer, and a TOMRA Genius B1200 sorting machine. 

De CEO fan it bedriuw, Toshiyuki Hata, besprekt hokker ynfloed dizze feroaringen hawwe.

Hata lei út dat de ferâldere peelingmasjine dy't se brûkten foardat se de Orbit 150 ynstalleare, faak stoppe mei wurkjen. "Wy stiene foar it risiko fan lange perioaden fan net-produksje yn 't ûngelokkige gefal dat de masine kapot gie."

"Nei de ynstallaasje fan 'e stoomskiller, naam ús produksje-opbringst mei sawat 5% en ferbettere produktkwaliteit," sei Hata.

Feroarings folgjende ynstallaasje 

As changes after installation of TOMRA’s steam peeler, Hata recognized that the company was able to reduce the number of staff required from 16 people to four people. “After this, we brought in another machine, and currently we are able to maintain the same quality with only one employee. Furthermore, this additional machine provides the same excellent operability as the steam peeler.”
