Baby Food:
Automation with the highest standards for baby food.
We support baby food manufacturers in automating the loading and unloading of products into retort baskets and trays.
Our solutions integrate upstream and downstream of retorts, enabling the handling of pouches, trays and jars under optimal hygiene and traceability conditions.
Process automation
Custom-built solutions to automate retort environments, from loading trays and baskets to palletizing jars or pouches. Precision, smooth flow and industrial performance.
Traceability
Traceability of baskets prior to sterilization using RFID or QR codes, with process time tracking and seamless integration into ERP and MES systems.
Food safety
By mastering this critical stage of production, our clients can deliver safe, healthy and trusted products for babies and their parents.
Our expertise
From loading to unloading, from drying to palletizing, we design lines capable of handling multiple formats with high precision. The goal: to make your process more reliable, secure your products and ensure consistent quality for young consumers.

JAR BASKET LOADING / UNLOADING
MCA Process designs automated basket loading and unloading lines for glass jars and rigid plastic containers. These systems ensure gentle product handling, with precise positioning into baskets or onto conveyors, at the infeed and outfeed of sterilization processes.
We deliver robust, custom-built solutions that integrate seamlessly into your existing lines.
RETORT TRAY LOADING AND UNLOADING
Optimize the handling of your pouches, trays and retort trays with our robotic solutions. Our custom-built systems adapt to your products, throughput requirements and layout constraints, while reducing the strain of repetitive tasks.
Process automation
MCA Process designs fully automated loading and unloading solutions for retorts, based on the use of motorized shuttles. These systems ensure continuous, hygienic and safe transfer of retort trays or baskets between loading/unloading stations and the retorts, in perfect synchronization with your pasteurization or sterilization cycles.
Each project is custom-designed based on your layout, throughput requirements and the type of retorts used. The shuttles are automatically controlled via our software or integrated with your existing control system.
Drying
After exiting the retort, packaging often retains moisture, which can compromise downstream operations such as labeling, case packing and palletizing.
Our drying solutions efficiently remove water from pouches and trays, ensuring clean, dry and compliant packaging.
Integrated immediately after unloading, our systems adapt to your formats, throughput requirements and layout constraints.
End of line
From cartoning to palletizing, our ergonomic and high-performance solutions optimize every stage of your end-of-line operations. We simplify handling and packaging, improving operator comfort while ensuring maximum productivity and consistent quality.
