Coffee bags moving☕. Codes printing. No handheld step required✋.

In this customer application, the Titan's external product detector triggers a print as each coffee bag travels down the conveyor.

Within seconds, the SNEED-JET® Titan Printer effortlessly applies the best by date and batch code.

It's a simple way to bring consistent, automated coding directly into the production line.

Did you know your corrugated cases can be left-handed or right-handed? 📦

And no, we're not talking about which hand you use to pick them up.😂

✅It's a small packaging detail that can become surprisingly important when you're setting up an automated case erector.

🔎Which side the major flap is positioned on can influence how the case runs through the equipment, how it discharges onto your production line, and even what happens to a printed logo or branding on the box.

Get the configuration wrong, and you could find yourself running your cases in an orientation you definitely didn't intend.

🎥 In this short, Santos breaks down left-handed vs. right-handed boxes and explains why it's one of the first questions he asks customers evaluating case erecting equipment.

It's just a cardboard box... what could possibly go wrong? 📦👀
More than you might think.

When a process is handled manually, small variations in packaging can go completely unnoticed. Introduce automated equipment, however, and suddenly those details can matter.🔍

That's exactly what our team discovered when a customer's seemingly straightforward box application started giving the equipment trouble during testing😖.

The surprising part?

The customer didn't necessarily know there was anything unusual about their boxes either.🤔

In this short from SNEED-CAST 74🎙️: Inside Our Print Sample Lab, Sam and Santos explain what they discovered, how it affected testing, and why the findings gave the customer something important to discuss with their packaging supplier.

What's the most challenging application we've ever tested in the Print Sample Lab?🤔

Well... there have been a few contenders. 😅

⚙️One customer sent us an entire pallet filled with heavy metal parts in different shapes and sizes.

Another application looked straightforward until our technicians discovered something on the surface that was making ink adhesion much more complicated than expected.🔍

And then there was one material that had Santos and Sam asking:
"Why won't ANYTHING stick to this?" 👀

Once they realized what the material was, everything suddenly made sense.

Your inventory system says you have everything you need. So why can't production fulfill the order? 🤔

For growing manufacturers, knowing what's sitting in the warehouse is only part of the equation.

🔎Materials might already be committed elsewhere. Production capacity could be tied up. Purchasing may be working from different information than the production team.

And suddenly, an inventory number that looked perfectly accurate doesn't tell the whole story.

MRPeasy Manufacturing Software explores why traditional inventory software may eventually fall short as manufacturing operations become more complex, and what growing businesses should consider before those gaps become production problems😩.

📖 If you're scaling your operation and relying heavily on your current inventory system, this one is worth the read👇.

What could a Colorado brewery, a cutting tool company, and a growing sauce brand possibly have in common?🤔

More than you'd think.

🍺 Loveland Aleworks was keeping up with growing demand.

🛠️ Union Grove Saw and Knife, LLC needed dependable marking that worked with the way they actually operate.

🍛 Sutra Foods had its sights set on retail shelves.

Three businesses. Three industries. Three very different production environments.

But each reached a point where the way they were coding products needed to keep pace with where their business was headed next.

That's what Proof in Action looks like.👀

We're sharing their stories so that other manufacturers and entrepreneurs can see how businesses like theirs navigated the production challenges that come with growth.

Your product looks perfectly printable. Some would even say it's a straightforward job🤔.

So why did the print sample fail? 👀

Sometimes, the answer isn't something you can see.

Small differences in a product's surface or surrounding conditions can completely change the way ink behaves, and even experienced manufacturers can be surprised by what our technicians uncover during testing.🔍

That's exactly why we test the actual product whenever an application needs a closer look.

In this short from SNEED-CAST 74🎙️: Inside Our Print Sample Lab, Sam shares one unexpected variable our team has encountered, and what happened when the ink hit the surface.

📱Watch the short to see what can turn a seemingly simple application into a challenging one.

What happens when a process that worked for a small business can no longer keep up with the business it's become?🤔

For Cookies con Amore🍪, The Cravory, a passion for generational recipes grew into a thriving operation with more than 45 employees and a 33,000-square-foot bakery.

But growth also meant that some of their original processes needed to grow with them.

Manual label guns, handwriting, and stencils had gotten the job done❌.

Eventually, though, the time and effort behind those methods became harder to justify.

That's where their next chapter begins🙌.

We're proud to spotlight Cookies Con Amore❤️ and the changes they made to simplify coding, while giving their team more time to focus on what matters most⏱️.

🙏Thank you to the Cookies Con Amore team for allowing us to share your story!

Choosing equipment shouldn't feel like an expensive guessing game.😩

You know your production line better than anyone. But when you're comparing printers, inks, packaging equipment, substrates, and application requirements, a second set of expert eyes can help you avoid a costly mismatch👀.

That's why we give customers two ways to confirm the fit before equipment ever reaches their facility.

🗣️ Talk through your application with a Sneed expert.

👨‍🔬 Send your actual products or packaging to our Sample Lab for testing.

Sometimes a conversation is enough to identify the right direction. Other times, there's no substitute for putting your real materials to the test.

Either way, the goal is the same: find the right fit before you invest.☝️

Because discovering a mismatch before equipment ships is much easier than discovering it after.

Ready to take the guesswork out of your next equipment decision? Talk with our team or submit your materials for testing.👇
