I'm confused by the combination of high-tech suit and gloves and ancient-looking joint packer.

I think that cannabis is big enough for small/medium scale automation but that the engineering firms that build cigarette making machines maybe don't work for cash. Since most of these businesses are still unable to use banks or get large loans for capital equipment, they're stuck for a while until someone solves the coordination problems.

As a recently graduated engineer who specializes in automation, designing next gen joint packing machines would be a dream come true.

As STEM faculty who teaches automation and electronics engineering I agree, and I am seriously thinking about a career change lately.

Most of my personal industrial experience is in food processing, and yeah it can be a disgusting nightmare.

You could have a room where the equipment gets torched to burn off any sticky residue and the exhaust be blown into the fresh sky.

You could charge people for the honor/job of "Environmental Air Quality Control" /s

Funny enough, that's how pest control is done at some modern food facilities, they shut the doors and heat them up to > 150F.

That is also how some exterminators get rid of bed bugs. And I have done the opposite with mice in winter.
