Upgrade Your Material Handling with GEMCOMATIC Drum Loading Systems
The GEMCOMATIC Drum Loading System dramatically reduces vessel loading time and operator downtime.
Efficiency is the key in today's fast-paced manufacturing world and the goal is to stop wasting time and resources. GEMCO is part of the solution with its innovative GEMCOMATIC Drum Loading Systems, which can load and unload in less than a minute.
The control system quickly brings the drum tray to the inverted position, slows to open the valve, discharges the contents of the drum into the vessel, closes the valve, then speeds up to quickly return the vessel to the upright position, then stops, ready for the next drum. It simplifies your operations, ensures safety, and boosts your workflow.
These features are improving your processes:
Rapid Loading: GEMCO's control system discharges the contents into the vessel in just 90 seconds and fills one in less than 60 seconds. This means fast throughput and greater processing efficiency. The blender spends more time blending and less time loading and unloading.
Versatile and Reliable: Accommodating any drum weight up to 1600 pounds and various drum sizes, the GEMCOMATIC system is field proven with hundreds of successful installations.
Safety and Customizability: Pre-wired with safety interlocks, it offers optional features such as tray vibrators, bag dumping packages, and drum weigh-offs.
In addition to this, as a one-floor, one-person operation, GEMCOMATIC eliminates second-floor mezzanine or platform expenditures, and additional material handling costs, and saves processing time.
By optimizing your workflow, reducing spillage, and eliminating inefficiencies, you can make the most out of your resources.

Using AI to Collect & Leverage Data
Data is the foundation of Industry 4.0. While skilled workers will always be essential, data is reshaping the manufacturing landscape, enabling automation of repetitive tasks, empowering smarter decision-making with AI assistance, and reducing defects and downtime. This shift allows small and medium-sized manufacturers (SMMs) to compete more effectively on quality, speed, and cost. While AI and machine learning systems typically require around two years to collect enough data to reach their full potential, manufacturers can start seeing benefits almost immediately with basic analysis tools and dashboards. Our MEP National NetworkTM expert explains how in this Manufacturing Tomorrow article.
