Schneider Electric and Sewtec Automation develop a next-generation production lineSchneider Electric (a leader in the digital transformation of energy management and automation), has partnered with Sewtec Automation (a precision-engineering company), to deliver an end-of-line packing solution for Pets Choice, the animal food and accessories producer. The new production line will improve overall production and assembly-line efficiency.

Sewtec Automation has chosen Schneider Electric’s PacDrive 3 Delta Robots to automatically orientate and pack large volumes of produce into trays for Pets Choice. With its centralised system architecture, PacDrive 3 controls the broad range of production and packaging requirements and provides a high level of flexibility.

The Pets Choice system will also act as a foundation upon which more cloud-based monitoring, condition monitoring and machine analytics can sit.

Paul Johnson, Sewtec Automation’s sales director, said: “The main reason for choosing Schneider Electric is the company’s technical capabilities. Its technology has not only has helped us deliver the project cost effectively, but also substantially improve our customers’ operational efficiency.”
