Fireball Industries, Ignite Your Factory Efficiency
Food & Beverage Processing

Food and beverage automation from process to pallet.

Food and beverage plants call us when the packaging line can’t keep up, when labor is short on second shift, or when the process needs better control and records. We automate the whole path from kettle to truck.

Problems

The problems we hear.

  • Packaging and palletizing that need more people than you can hire

  • Temperature and time records kept on paper for your food safety plan

  • Product loss when a process drifts and nobody sees it

  • Changeovers and washdowns that cut into run time

Examples

What a project looks like.

  • End of line palletizing

    A palletizer stacks cases off the packaging line on every shift, so second shift runs at the same rate as first.

  • Process records without clipboards

    Temperatures and hold times are logged automatically for each batch, with alarms when a value drifts out of range.

  • Filling line integration

    Fillers, cappers, and labelers are connected with shared controls so the line starts, stops, and changes over as one.
