SUMMARY
Ito-Yokado Sugito Perishable Center was having problems recruiting local personnel. Niippon Career Slicer was introduced with the expectation that it would contribute to solve fundamental problems such as the difficulty of securing a labor force and the time required to master processing techniques. It is used as an essential function for process centers to respond to the fast-paced consumption cycle of the online supermarket era.
1)Issues before using our products
- Due to the meat processing process using a round blade slicer, it took three years to develop skilled personnel.
- It was difficult to secure human resources in the region, and it was not possible to maintain stable processing quality.
- With the rapid turnover of foreign personnel, a production system based on the assumption of a long proficiency period was not realistic.
2)Benefits after use our products
- Shortening the learning period from 3 years (craftsman level such as store processing) to 1 week.
- Building a system that is not affected by the aging of skilled human resources and the dependence on fluid foreigner resources.
- Establishing a production base that is compatible with online supermarkets.
3)Focuses considered making use decisions
- Safety, such as how much the risk of injury during cleaning and maintenance of the round blade slicer is reduced.
- How much manpower can be saved for such individual work as precise temperature control such as cooling (tempering) and difficult machine settings such as slicing thickness adjustment.
- Flexibility in line design and investment efficiency to meet the demands of online supermarkets.
