Why Upgrade
Problems We Solve
01
Slow Production Output
Manual or outdated cap lines bottleneck your entire production. Our high-speed automation delivers up to 800 caps/min with consistent quality every shift.
→ Up to 800 caps/min
02
Frequent Downtime & Maintenance
Air conveyor systems with near-zero maintenance, torque limiters, and HMI error diagnostics keep your line running — not waiting for a technician.
→ Near-zero maintenance
03
Inconsistent Blade & Seal Quality
PID-controlled heating ensures consistent blade temperature every cycle — eliminating the variance that causes defects, rejects, and costly rework.
→ 99.7% quality pass rate
04
Operator Safety Risks
Fully enclosed moving areas with interlocked safety doors and torque limiters ensure your operators are protected and your plant stays audit-ready.
→ ISO safety certified
05
High Cost Per Unit
Our cost-effective automation solutions dramatically reduce per-unit cost, helping you compete on price without sacrificing quality or margin.
→ ROI within 18 months
06
No Single-Machine Solution
Slitting, folding, and wad insertion in one compact machine. Fewer floor footprints, fewer handoffs, fewer failure points — more throughput.
→ 3-in-1 combo machines

What Our Clients Say
"HEM's slitting machine completely transformed our production line. We went from 60% efficiency to over 95% in under 3 months. The PID temperature control made all the difference — zero blade inconsistency across shifts."
"We commissioned a custom SPM for nozzle lid assembly and HEM delivered exactly what we scoped. Build quality is solid, their team is technically sharp, and we've had near-zero unplanned downtime in 2 years of running."
"The air conveyor is genuinely maintenance-free — 18 months, not a single conveyor issue. The safety enclosures also gave our compliance team confidence during audits. Very happy with the purchase."
"Best automation partner in 15 years. R.L. Chitnis and his team truly understand the production floor — they don't just supply machines, they engineer around your specific problem."
"Good quality machines and responsive service. The hot stamping machine runs consistently at 40 per minute without issues. After-sales support was prompt — overall a trustworthy vendor."
"We've sourced 3 machines from HEM over 8 years — a slitting machine, a wad inserter, and a flip-top closer. Each one has run reliably. Their honest pricing keeps us coming back."
