SanLi Assists Vietnam Client in Building New Wet Wipe Factory
Sanli Technology Assists Vietnam Client in Expanding Wet Wipe Factory: From Capacity Upgrade to System Optimization
In a wet wipe production factory in Vietnam, a comprehensive expansion and upgrade project is underway. The factory's original production line had been operating for three years, but with the rapid growth in market demand, the existing capacity could no longer meet the increasing order volume. To address this challenge, the client decided to install a new high-speed production line while upgrading existing equipment to enhance overall production efficiency and optimize system operations.
Project Background
The client's factory originally operated a 20-line wet wipe production line with a speed of 7,000 wipes per minute. After three years of operation, growing market demands prompted the client to plan for the addition of a new 52-line production line with a speed of 13,000 wipes per minute. The two production lines were to be integrated into a new factory facility for streamlined operations.
The key objectives of this expansion project included:
- Increasing the overall factory capacity to 20,000 wipes per minute.
- Upgrading the existing water treatment and chemical mixing systems to align with the new production line.
- Implementing precise digital control to optimize efficiency and reduce manual errors.
- Completing a full CAD layout design for the new factory and ensuring successful equipment installation and commissioning.
Scope of Work
1. Installation of a New Wet Wipe Production Line
- Installed a high-speed wet wipe production line with a capacity of 13,000 wipes per minute.
- The addition of this line increased the factory’s overall capacity from 7,000 to 20,000 wipes per minute, meeting the growing market demand.
2. Expansion and Digital Upgrade of the Water Treatment System
- Capacity Expansion: Increased the water treatment system capacity from 2,000 liters per hour to 6,000 liters per hour to meet the high water demand of the two production lines.
- Digital Upgrade: Replaced the manual dosing system with a precise digital control system, enabling automated management of water output and chemical dosing to ensure stable and accurate water supply.
3. Upgrade of the Chemical Mixing System
- Enhanced the efficiency of the chemical mixing system, enabling it to automatically adjust ratios based on different wet wipe formulations.
- Ensured consistent and stable liquid ratios for every production batch, improving the quality of finished wet wipes.
4. Factory Layout Design
- Designed a comprehensive CAD layout for the new factory facility, optimizing the arrangement of production lines, equipment, and logistics routes.
- The layout ensured efficient collaboration between new and existing equipment while leaving room for future expansion.
5. Turnkey Installation and Commissioning
- Provided full turnkey services, including the installation of new equipment, relocation of old equipment, and integration testing of new and existing systems.
- Ensured a smooth transition for the production lines, enabling the new factory to achieve the targeted capacity seamlessly.
Project Results
The successful completion of this wet wipe factory expansion project delivered the following outcomes:
- Significant Capacity Increase: The overall production capacity increased from 7,000 wipes per minute to 20,000 wipes per minute, meeting strong market demand.
- Efficient Digital Control: The upgraded water treatment and mixing systems achieved precise digital control, significantly reducing manual errors and improving production efficiency.
- Stable and Efficient System Operation: The seamless integration of new and existing systems ensured stable operations while providing sufficient room for future expansion.
- Enhanced Product Quality: The optimized mixing system ensured more precise liquid ratios, leading to greater consistency and quality in the wet wipes produced.
Conclusion
This project was not just about increasing production capacity but also about optimizing the entire production system. With a scientifically designed expansion plan, Sanli Technology helped the client achieve equipment upgrades, capacity enhancements, and streamlined production processes.
