Tetra Pak, Rockwell Automation collaborate to advance performance for powder manufacturers
The collaboration merges processing solutions with process control architecture.
Tetra Pak, Lausanne, Switzerland, and Rockwell Automation, Milwaukee, announced a strategic business collaboration for cheese and powder solutions. The companies said their combined business expertise will deliver data and technology to reduce variability and improve quality consistency — helping ensure finished products are produced sustainably and cost-effectively within demand-driven manufacturing environments.
“The food and drink industry now requires that producers have a level of agility never seen before. This means we must be ready to offer our customers advanced processing control technology that is both flexible and precise,” said Fred Griemsmann, vice president, cheese and powder systems for Tetra Pak. “Customers can leverage our food application expertise, have access to production data in real time and adapt their process variables to match requirements — without any loss in quality, productivity or throughput. This unique collaboration with Rockwell Automation provides the foundation upon which this capability is based.”
