Food processing and packaging operations have always needed to respond with agility and efficiency to ever-changing consumer tastes and habits. That means a constant drive to bring new or modified products to market faster while maintaining productivity and profit margins.
This poses a challenge to food processing and packaging plant engineering. Today’s machines must be modular and scalable, incorporate intelligent technologies, generate usable data in real time, and give plant engineering and operations the freedom to make changes as their business changes. This is a key reason why intelligent drive and control systems are in demand: They feature technology that is compact, highly efficient, easy to integrate and, to save the most space, cabinet-free.
