Short runs, frequent formulation changes, mixed products — where flexibility is as important as precision. Nordexa has been building machines for plants where variety is not a problem but a business model, for 30 years.
Short-run, variable manufacturing is one of the most demanding tasks in dosing and packaging technology. Flexibility requires serious engineering investment — but the payback is proportionate.
When 3–5 products run on the machine daily, changeover time directly eats into capacity. Automatic size-change filling heads, one-button recipe call, <15 minute changeover from the recipe library.
Traceability is critical for small batches — if a batch is wrong, you need to know exactly which one. Automatic batch record for every run, with batch log and operator sign-off.
Different viscosity materials, different bottle and batch sizes — on the same machine. Modular filling head swap, wide viscosity range, adapter set for packaging changes.
200 units today, perhaps 2,000 next year. Modular architecture means the machine is expandable, not replaceable — the investment holds value long-term.
Multiple clients' products in parallel, with auditable separation and batch record.
Seasonal, premium and collaborative products — small quantity, but high expectation for appearance.
Development runs, market testing, formulation validation — where quantity is small but documentation is critical.
Different packaging, label and formulation for different markets — on the same production line.
Low-volume, special composition industrial chemicals and specialities filling.
Filling and packaging third-party clients' products — the machine must meet their specifications too.
The best friend of short-run manufacturing — modules are interchangeable, the machine expandable, changeovers planned.
Details →If the portfolio is too wide for the module library — fully bespoke design.
Details →If the product is homogeneous and volume predictable — proven platform, fast and reliable.
Details →In short-run manufacturing there is no backup machine — service guarantee is not optional, it is the production safety net.
