Out of the pyramid

What is behind SEW-Eurodrive’s new „StarterSet“ and how can it help with automatisation? Alexander Hack, Strategic Portfolio Manager, explains.

What do a car racetrack in the children’s room, an individually assembled food box for the relaxed preparation of favourite meals and the start in automation have in common? Curious about drive and automation technology that arrives at the machine builder? This way to the machine automation solutions …

Packaging machines are an indispensable part of the process in a wide range of industries. Their automation, functions and movements are determined by product characteristics such as size, weight, volume and, especially in the case of food or pharmaceuticals, a multitude of other criteria. Quick changeovers and frequent product changes require a modular and flexible machine design. At the same time, many application and movement sequences are comparable. This approach offers the possibility of simplification through standardisation.

With this strategy, the Bruchsal-based company is going beyond the approach of prepared technology templates. But what is behind the new „StarterSet“? Alexander Hack, Strategic Portfolio Manager at SEW-Eurodrive, provides information about this:
