Oregon's Beloved Brand Scales Up with Revolutionary Automation

AT A GLANCE

 In just a few years, our client, a family-owned Oregon cannabis business, had risen to become a leading pre-roll producer. Renowned for quality and consistency, their hand-rolled joints were a hit with discerning customers. However, explosive growth brought a major hurdle: keeping up with demand without compromising quality. Their reliance on highly skilled hand rollers – who could only produce around 60 pre-rolls per hour – couldn't keep pace.


CONSISTENCY CONUNDRUM

Each cannabis strain has its own unique characteristics, demanding an equally unique rolling style for optimal performance. Maintaining this level of precision with increasing volume was a major challenge.


THE AUTOMATION SOLUTION

Enter Automation Solutions. We partnered with the client to design and build a custom machine that would revolutionize their production process. Our solution addressed both speed and precision:


  • 10x Faster: The machine flawlessly rolls an astonishing 600 pre-rolls per hour, the equivalent of 10 highly skilled employees.

  • Laser-Guided Perfection: An innovative laser system measures the contents of each joint, tailoring the twist-off to the specific characteristics of each cannabis strain. This ensures unwavering consistency across all pre-rolls, maximizing the potential of each unique cultivar.

  • Real-Time Transparency: Monitor the entire process through a convenient side panel displaying key information like production time, total pre-rolls rolled, and fill height measurements.


THE RESULTS

Beyond the immediate impact on production speed and quality, the financial benefits were substantial. In its first year alone, the machine saved the client over $500,000 in labor costs alone! Not only did it empower them to meet the soaring demand, but it also freed up valuable resources for reinvestment in the business.


MORE THAN JUST MACHINES

This case study is about more than just automation. It's a testament to the power of collaboration and innovation. By working closely with our client, we were able to understand their unique challenges and craft a solution that perfectly aligned with their goals. The result? A thriving business poised for even greater success, all while staying true to the values of quality and consistency that made them a cannabis industry leader in Oregon.
