By utilising the speed and power of Origa rodless pneumatic cylinders, engineers at The Wrigley Co, the chewing gum manufacturers, have developed a machine to improve the efficiency of inspection on its packaging lines.

Now, however, a machine which features Origa P210 Series rodless cylinders can automatically inspect up to ninety boxes per minute, and reject any that fail to meet Wrigley's standards of quality control.

However, the self-cleaning stainless steel sealing strips of the Origa rodless cylinders are unaffected and pose no threat of contamination.
