Integrating machines into production lines is a crucial step in optimising production, reducing costs and improving product quality.
At BENNE SA, our positioning has been clearly oriented towards automated material handling and its functionalities since 1985.
However, over the years we have gained experience in integrating machines and/or functions that we do not necessarily manufacture, but which we very frequently encounter in the automated material handling projects entrusted to us.
Optimising productivity:
Integrating machines enables repetitive processes to be automated, reducing production time, ensuring an efficient workflow, minimising downtime and smoothing the production flow, thereby increasing production capacity.
Lower costs:
Automation reduces the risk of human error, smoothes transitique flows, optimises workflows, increases production capacity and reduces lead times.
Improved quality:
Machines guarantee precision and uniformity in production, improving the quality of end products by reducing the number of faulty products and the costs of rework or correction.
Why choose us?
BENNE works with you to define a solution with the help of our sales engineers, designs it in our design offices, manufactures and assembles it in our workshops, electrifies and automates it with our specialist technicians, and then installs it in your plants with our field technicians. We can also provide maintenance for these lines.
By integrating and offering a more complete scope in the implementation of your processes, we can reduce the number of people involved and, as a result, converge more quickly and dynamically towards the objectives to be achieved.
In terms of control/command, the uniqueness of the logic improves communication between machines and between lines, to ensure the speed and precision of your product flows.
The safety of your operators is not neglected, and also benefits from a single approach covering the entire perimeter.
Our design offices guarantee global visibility of the process being worked on. No more ‘every man for himself’!
Robotics:
In recent years, we have added the integration of robots or cobots to our activities, either at the heart of the process or at the end of the line.
These tools, combined with developments in computing and electronics, are increasingly powerful and versatile, boosting productivity.
We prefer to integrate YASKAWA robots, but we can adapt to your requirements if you already have other brands in place.
They can be of any type: poly-articulated, delta, scara, AGV, cobots, etc.
They can be found within processes and at the end of the line, for palletising tasks, for example.
Here are a few examples of the machines we regularly integrate into our customers’ lines:
Stacking / destacking of pallets
Sealing (case sealers)
Strapping
Weighing and checkweighing stations
Case / carton forming
Cartoning
Flowpackaging
Pallet wrapping, hooding, corner removal
Bagging
Combined weighing
Filling
Dosing

OUR PROJECT PROCESS
Chronology of your projects
Our pre-project team, consisting of an expert from each field – a sales engineer, a design engineer and a pre-sales technician – advises all our customers in their search for solutions. Depending on the customer’s needs, this team can provide advice in order to conceive and design the project they want with specific solutions.
Our engineers and project designers model and conceptualise all the projects you want. Our teams visit your sites to adapt our conveyor lines to your environment. They model the project, which is then designed methodically by our design office.
Each team receives the plans and produces their parts of the conveyor.
Our automation technicians program the electrical system to suit the customer’s needs. They adapt to any additional machinery integrated into the line and take every detail into account to build the lines you need.
Our assembly staff put the complete lines and conveyors together. Everything is pre-tested in our workshops with quality controls at every stage.
Next, our assembly staff install the production lines at your premises and re-test their operation before commissioning.
If you have any technical questions, belt changes or modifications to make to any of our conveyors, our quality department can answer all your questions. They will put you in touch with the qualified staff who will be able to respond directly to your problem.
