Published purpose

Harbour intends to add an automated folding/bagging/boxing solution to its proprietary automated isolation gown manufacturing environment, improving efficiency, increasing safety and reducing the overall cost-per-gown, making the system more attractive to prospective PPE manufacturers Harbour hopes to partner with. This will be done by borrowing existing best-in-class components and engineering to build our own dedicated end-of-line automated solution capable of folding a gown every 3.5 seconds at maximum speed, automatically detecting and rejecting failures on the fly and with the flexibility to insert between one and ten gowns per bag depending on contract needs.
