NUOVA SAIMPA 4.0

Smart Factory and Industry 4.0

In 2020, the company launched the “Smart Factory” project to optimize the production system in response to rapid growth. This project involved revising the layout, redistributing spaces, and implementing advanced technologies, including automated conveyors and automated warehouses, with the goal of improving efficiency and adopting a “just-in-time” approach. The new system was integrated with the company’s information management system and meets the requirements of Industry 4.0.

Automated
warehouses

The warehouses are interconnected with an information management system, facilitating the management of small parts and equipment for the silkscreen, pad printing and finishing departments, as well as the management of molds used in the molding departments.

Autonomous
Guided Vehicles

We have five Autonomous Guided Vehicles (AGVs) and conveyor belts that distribute materials to the screen printing, pad printing and assembly departments. Since 2020, we have made substantial progress in management automation and process digitalisation, strengthening coordination between material handling and production organisation.

Robotized
islands

The robotized islands automate various operations, thanks to a system that is particularly efficient in handling products at the end of the molding process, adaptable to different production needs.
