Hahahahahahahaha
Are you serious though?

you see I was replying to him saying a few thousand carts, right?
Every hour
Or are you gonna crank your autofiller up for 3 hours a day and then complain about shrinking margins lmfaoooo
Cool, he’s manufacturing and moving 100k units a day?
You can keep making as many hypothetical situations as you like… I’m simply saying an automatic machine is obviously better than filling 100k by hand… I can only imagine the turnover if you’re doing that regularly and the headaches from it
I can think of a couple people that do close to that
I wonder how many people here have actually been in a production facility that does over 50k carts a week.
I know not many d9 producers are doing these type of numbers if any.

Exactly, so you don’t need 10 people furiously packaging the carts coming out of the automatic machine… 50k a week?
You will need more than 10 people to package more than 1000 units an hour

There are a shit ton of d8, hhc, thco producers hitting them numbers weekly. That game is so different than the d9 game
What happens when that machine breaks and you don’t have your 100k machine for 3 weeks. What do you do then?
Uhh… what kinda packaging are you doing? They can’t get 1.6 a minute done?
I haven’t even said a bad word about the cart farmer lol but to argue it’s better than that xylem machine is seriously retarded

You pull out 2 cartfarmers and get to work lol
Childproof packaging broski. Remember, you also gotta package what was filled while the packaging team was off duty
The xylem that can fill 2 styles of carts max?
If you think they won’t have the range of carts it can fill (including disposable) fixed on the next generation you’re being willfully ignorant

I like my cart farmer. I use it all the time for various things like disty pills.
I haven’t been able to get accurate doing less than 150mg which kinda sucks for disty pills but I can’t find anything better for metered dosing that low for pure distillate.

Ive been competing with this style of autofiller for 2 years now. I work with a customer that upgraded this style of machine with a k4 dispenser. I am well aware of its capabilities and limitations, and I can assure you, it doesn’t hold a candle to a 710 shark, a wook on a k4 or even a cf1000

98k was the cost.
510 threaded carts are the number one carts in Oregon by a long shot, Oregon isnt the biggest on disposables and honestly we dont really want to offer them anyways due to their environmental impact. There is enough waste in this industry as is.

Has it ever broken down?

Sure, like anything else that has 500+ moving parts things have broken. Nothing has had us down for more than a day or two though. The manufacturer has always been able to overnight spare parts from their facility in Texas with no charge.
The machine is very easy to diagnose and troubleshoot issues on the fly. Everything is extremely well labeled and all the automation can been seen live on what sensor is active or not active at any given time. so say a sensor comes out of alignment the HMI will show you you station 7 alarm and then you can look at station 7’s inputs and outputs and there will no light on for the station 7 sensor and you can check the corresponding sensor and readjust it and be back up and running without more than a few minutes of downtime.

I have some questions too
How many hours a day does this machine run?
How long does it take to change batches?
1 Like
Were not running it all day every day, I would say a few hours a day is average. We usually do 2-3000 cart batches at a time. It takes about 10-15 minutes to switch batches. Its in the room with our post processing and analytics so the person overseeing it is usually multitasking on other processes too.
