- Custom GUI development, Nidec API integration and real-time monitoring
Sheppee Industrial Automation, a manufacturer of glass bottles and jars, faced significant operational constraints due to lengthy template change times on their Nidec machinery.
Every production switch required hours or even days to complete, creating bottlenecks that limited flexibility and responsiveness to customer demands. Without in-house expertise to integrate the necessary drivers, they needed a trusted technology partner who could modernise their systems efficiently.
Manufacturing flexibility was being constrained by a slow, technical changeover process that created avoidable downtime.
