Sizeable upturn in auto-mation, digitalisation of SSA’s industries

With its roots in Europe, which is leading the Fourth Industrial Revolution, drive technology and automation specialist SEW-EURODRIVE has the necessary experience to meet the growing demand for automation and digitalisation solutions from sub-Saharan Africa’s (SSA’s) printing and packaging industries. “There’s currently a significantly high demand and we’ve seen a good positive move over the past few years, especially with our new MOVI-C modular automation system. Demand for automation and digitalisation is considerable now and because our research and development (R&D) department is in Germany, we are well-prepared to meet the local demand,” says SEW-EURODRIVE electronics business development manager Willem Strydom.
