How Lenze helps Santa sort sweets and cookies for Christmas

Christmas isn’t just about toys and gifts – it’s also about delicious treats! From gingerbread cookies to festive candies, Santa’s workshop has a sweet challenge: sorting thousands of goodies quickly and accurately. With demand at an all-time high, Santa needs a solution that combines speed, precision, and flexibility. That’s where Lenze comes in.

The challenge of sorting

Sorting sweets and cookies is no simple task. Different shapes, sizes, and packaging require machines that can adapt instantly without slowing down production. Santa’s elves need automation that’s fast, reliable, and easy to reconfigure for new assortments. Enter Lenze’s powerful trio: i750 and i950 servo drives, the c430 controller, and Lenze FAST Application Software.

Dynamic motion with i750 and i950 servo drives

The i750 servo drive brings high-performance motion control to Santa’s sorting lines. It ensures smooth, precise movements for conveyors and pick-and-place systems, even at high speeds. For more complex tasks, the i950 cabinet servo drive adds intelligence and modular scalability. It supports multiple feedback systems and fieldbus connections, making integration into Santa’s automation network effortless. Together, these drives keep the sweets moving without a hitch.

Smart coordination with c430 controller

Behind every efficient sorting line is a smart brain. The c430 controller orchestrates the entire process, ensuring that every cookie and candy reaches the right spot. It manages multiple axes and synchronizes movements across machines, reducing cycle times and boosting productivity. For Santa, that means more treats sorted in less time: just in time for Christmas Eve.

Flexibility with Lenze FAST

Santa’s secret weapon for adaptability? Lenze FAST Application Software. With pre-configured modules, the elves can switch between different sorting patterns and packaging formats in minutes. No lengthy programming, no downtime – just quick, intuitive changes that keep the production line running smoothly. Whether it’s chocolate Santas or sugar cookies, Lenze FAST makes it easy to meet every festive request.
