Smart solutions with the high level of mutual trust and understanding

According to Csaba Borsfai, Senior coordinator and technology expert for wet and dry pet food at the Pet Food Competence Network: “Many of these companies already work together across the globe, not just in pet food, but also in other equally demanding industries, so there is already a high level of mutual trust and understanding. This level of integration is also present on a technological level as cross-company Industry 4.0 data architectures and smart-machine solutions are already in place, proven in action and ready for new users to leverage.”
“All of the projects will benefit from a single point of contact,” Borsfai continues, “and are backed by beginning-to-end consultation coupled to an investment plan that will deliver the best possible TCO and payback. By bringing all the company offerings under one umbrella, we anticipate significantly lower preparation costs, lead times being reduced by months and commissioning time cut from weeks to days!”
