As a forward focused
company, Tilley Group
Ltd is constantly evolving
and looking to the future.
A significant part of that
strategy is to always be
looking at reinvesting in
new technology that will help them continue to
deliver the strong quality and service they pride
themselves on and that their customers have
come to expect.
The recent installation of a Bystronic Xpert 100
Series Pressbrake is the perfect example of
Tilley’s continual search to improve upon what the
company already offers.
“The Industry 4.0 revolution means a significant
change for how factories are set up and the
way companies function by making full use of
smart functionality and connected systems.
Tilley is embracing that challenge by looking
for new solutions that improve their processes
to both meet the challenges and seize the new
opportunities that this change will bring,” says the
company.
The key to any industrial progress and
organisational development, is looking for
products from companies that inspire trust says
Eberhard Klauke, marketing coordinator.
“Bystronic stands out for their strong reputation
for building reliable, fully featured products as
well as having a solid background of industrial
knowledge and experience. Their wholly owned
subsidiary servicing the Australasian region,
meant easy, clear and reliable communication
which was invaluable to Tilleys.”
Interacting directly with Bystronic has helped
foster a high degree of confidence and trust in
the company’s products and service, and in turn
created a strong working relationship. Tilley says
that Bystonic’s dedicated New Zealand service
base means prompt, valuable support for a
wide range of after sales service. This includes
installation, training, maintenance, trouble
shooting and repair as well as local phone support
(including after hours) and a service team of
factory trained engineers.
“One of the most attractive aspects of Bystronic’s
range of machines, is their powerful suite of
software packages. The comprehensively
featured but easy-to-use BySoft system in
particular makes creating and monitoring
processes simpler, faster and more efficient than
ever before.”
Peace of mind comes from the online functionality
enabling both the monitoring of the machine
as well as enabling the latest updates for its
software to be downloaded immediately upon
availability. Should any issues possibly arise,
they are promptly detected and addressed which
minimises downtime.
Bystronic designs its machines for the emerging
demands of Industry 4.0. This means that as Tilley
Group migrates towards greater automation,
there is confidence in the knowledge that these
machines are capable of adapting to those needs
and ensuring that they will have a long, productive
and relevant lifespan.
After installation of Bystronics Xpert 100 Series
pressbrake, Tilley quickly began to see first-hand
the value it brought to their company. Due to its
intelligent design, the intuitive controls meant
bringing operators up to speed was incredibly
easy. Improvements to work-flow were quickly
noticed thanks to the process optimisation the
operating system delivers, and the connected
network solutions allowing systems within the
company to communicate with each other lead to
noticeably reduced lead times.
The high-quality design of the machine meant
that Tilleys could not only improve their folding
capabilities but it also ensures that their focus on
consistent quality is attained faster and easier
than before. This in turn leads to a noticeable
drop in wastage of time and materials.
