End Of Line Automation Project - Gown Folding
FY 2023-24 · 2023-07-31
Summary
Harbour intends to add an automated folding/bagging/boxing solution to its proprietary automated isolation gown manufacturing environment, improving efficiency, increasing safety and reducing the overall cost-per-gown, making the system more attractive to prospective PPE manufacturers Harbour hopes to partner with.
This will be done by borrowing existing best-in-class components and engineering to build our own dedicated end-of-line automated solution capable of folding a gown every 3.5 seconds at maximum speed, automatically detecting and rejecting failures on the fly and with the flexibility to insert between one and ten gowns per bag depending on contract needs.

Description
Harbour intends to add an automated folding/bagging/boxing solution to its proprietary automated isolation gown manufacturing environment, improving efficiency, increasing safety and reducing the overall cost-per-gown, making the system more attractive to prospective PPE manufacturers Harbour hopes to partner with.
This will be done by borrowing existing best-in-class components and engineering to build our own dedicated end-of-line automated solution capable of folding a gown every 3.5 seconds at maximum speed, automatically detecting and rejecting failures on the fly and with the flexibility to insert between one and ten gowns per bag depending on contract needs.
Description (French)
Harbour a l’intention d’ajouter une solution automatisée de pliage, d’ensachage et de mise en boîte à son environnement exclusif de fabrication automatisée de blouses d’isolation, afin d’améliorer l’efficacité, d’accroître la sécurité et de réduire le coût global par blouse, ce qui rendra le système plus attrayant pour les fabricants potentiels d’EPI avec lesquels Harbour espère s’associer. Cela se fera en empruntant les meilleurs composants et l’ingénierie existants pour construire notre propre solution automatisée de fin de ligne, capable de plier une blouse toutes les 3,5 secondes à la vitesse maximale, de détecter et de rejeter automatiquement les défaillances à la volée et avec la flexibilité d’insérer entre une et dix blouses par sac en fonction des besoins du contrat.
