The problem
Cups were loaded onto conveyor trays by hand, taking 2 minutes per cycle and 14 operators to keep the line fed.
What I designed
Magazine input tray
A gravity-fed magazine system laid out as an 8 × 8 matrix, keeping cup orientation and stack height consistent for repeatable pickup.
Conveyor synchronisation
Integrated the cell with conveyor indexing so cup placement stays in step with the line.
Outcome
Cycle time fell from 2 minutes to 12 seconds and the crew from 14 operators to 2, while holding the line's takt time.
