Abstract

En 中文
The innovative pressure device, developed to address contamination issues on Essity Slovakia's carton production line, was successfully implemented using 3D printing technology. This approach resulted in a precise prototype that significantly reduces contamination, simplifies packaging procedures, and lessens the need for manual labor. The project entailed a comprehensive review of the current system, 3D scanning, creation of a model using SolidWorks software, and fabrication with a Trilab DeltiQ 2 printer. The outcomes demonstrate a staggering 96% decrease in contamination, elimination of downtime, and a boost in overall line efficiency. This research underscores the transformative capabilities of additive manufacturing in industrial modernization and accentuates the significance of technological advancements in enhancing efficiency, sustainability, and quality within the manufacturing industry.
