Harpak, Inc. is a packaging systems integrator located in South Easton, Massachusetts, offering complete solutions to both the food and drug packaging industries. Harpak works with clients from the beginning to the end of the line, from early seed meetings to full production, audit and control. Their access to global solutions puts Harpak in the forefront of packaging technologies today.
"We are not limited by domestic solutions – we have global solutions at our fingertips," says Vin Faherty, Manager Product Packaging.
From the world of available product inspection equipment, there are three reasons why Harpak chooses METTLER TOLEDO HI-SPEED checkweighers.
Meeting specifications – Hi-Speed checkweighers and Safeline metal detectors meet demanding packaging system specifications for speed, accuracy and survivability. Harpak is the exclusive North American distributor for Mondini tray sealers, for example, and has developed a patented beaded seal, which allows customers to seal through extremely fatty products. "This type of product environment requires a machine that is robust and easy to clean," says Faherty.
Harpak's production audit and control system (PACS) offers Ethernet connectivity for all equipment sold. On request, Harpak will help a client connect their equipment to a network that is accessible for remote service and support. If you're in Tennessee, and your machine is in Kansas City, no problem! Using a standard web browser, you will be able to view all running data, such as packs produced and shift summary information.
Hi-Speed's open modular architecture controls connect easily with Harpak's master controllers and data systems, presenting a clearer picture of how a line is performing.
Providing field service and training – Harpak is a full service organization that provides installation, field service and training to clients. Harpak technicians are equipped with the latest in training software and techniques. Hi-Speed field service personnel are often included on the installation, start-up and training team. "We get the expertise we need for specific projects. They are responsive and understand our challenges," says Faherty.
A name you can trust – Harpak's clients are some of the largest food packagers in the industry and produce some of the world's most famous products. These companies understand the confidence and trust that their customers place in brand names. Mettler-Toledo Hi-Speed and Safeline are the leading suppliers of product inspection equipment to the food and drug industries. Vin Faherty said it best: "They have a well-known name."
