Answer first
Start with carton dimensions and throughput, then decide sealing method and integration requirements.
Start with the actual application. Document the product or pack, throughput, material or substrate, data/content requirement, environment and existing line interfaces.
Questions to bring to a supplier
- What must the equipment print, seal, inspect, trace or automate?
- What production speed and operating window are required?
- What equipment exists before and after this process?
- What integration, support, spare parts or consumables will be needed?
The best supplier conversation is specific enough to turn a generic product category into a scoped requirement.
