Automation projects for plants, factories and warehouses can be designed and implemented using SEW-EURODRIVE’s Maxolution offering.
According to the company’s works manager: mechatronics Werner Engelbrecht the process is focused on combining all aspects of production including hardware and software.
“With our specialised software, we can simulate material flow in industrial systems, helping customers to achieve greater efficiency through multiple integrations of systems,” he says. “The Maxolution portfolio allows applications in the customer’s facility to be incorporated into a single network.”
The system solution has its own pre-defined application modules and new systems can be integrated to allow existing systems to adapt to product changes. The solution can offer cost-effective adaptability for product variations in a production line using its easily programmable application modules.
Engelbrecht says that the system has already been installed to help automate the factories of leading South African car manufacturers but notes that is has potential for use in other local sectors, helping to raise efficiencies, productivity and output.
“With our experience and the proven technology, we can use Maxolution to implement automation plans cost-effectively and quickly,” he says. “These solutions also save energy through the use of energy management systems and energy efficient IE4 and IE5 mechatronic decentralised solutions and motors.”
He highlights that the offering helps differentiate SEW-EURODRIVE as not only an equipment supplier, but as a partner in project planning, commissioning, after-sales service and support.
